Quote by Bernardo E. Lopes

“Something about it could say something about himself. Where did that burning flame inside of him come from? His continuous grudge and his eagerness to feel resentment, how easy it was for him not only to like something, but love it as if his life depended on it? He needed to know the History. He needed certainties about questions he had about himself—whatever certainty it was. Maybe understanding where all of that came from would make it hurt less. He needed to know his truth.”

“Wie immer hatte seine rauchige, tiefe Stimme eine beinahe schon hypnotisierende Wirkung, die einen dazu brachte, ihm näherrücken zu wollen. Dass seine Erscheinung auf dem erhöhten Hocker, mit zerrissener Jeans und den längeren, pechschwarzen Haaren ebenfalls die Hormone hochschießen ließ, war ein weiterer Zuckerguss. Aber am liebsten mochte ich seine Ausstrahlung, die er beim Singen bekam. Diese tiefen Gefühle, die er mit seinen Texten, seiner Stimme durch den Raum direkt in die Seele hineintragen konnte. Andere würden bei den Songs einen Beat oder ein Schlagzeug im Hintergrund haben wollen, nicht nur eine Wahnsinnsstimme und Gitarrenmusik – aber genau das passte perfekt zu ihm, denn es war so unverfälscht und ehrlich. So wie Musik sein sollte. Bei seinem Gesang kam es mir vor, als würde er sich öffnen und eine Seite zeigen, die er sonst verschlossen hielt. Und besonders dann fühlte ich mich Johnny immer vollständig verbunden, als teilten wir durch die Musik ein spezielles Band. Was natürlich vollkommener Blödsinn war. Diese Gefühle teilte wohl jedes zweite Mädchen, das ihn singen hörte, und aus seiner männlichen Warte wäre es wohl wirklich blöd gewesen, das nicht ein klein wenig auszunützen. Nicht, dass ich es okay fand – es war dennoch widerlich –, aber wenn ich ihn singen sah und hörte, konnte ich die Situation ein bisschen besser verstehen. Seine Anziehung war unbestreitbar. Würde ich die aufkeimenden Gefühle für ihn nicht entschieden von mir weisen, könnte ich ein leichtes Flattern im Magen spüren. Dumme, idiotische Gefühle, schimpfte ich mich selbst. Unter dem Vorwand, mir etwas zu trinken zu holen, und um meiner unnötigen Hormonausschüttung den Hahn abzudrehen, ging ich aus dem Raum, bis Johnny fertig war.”

“We are in middle of a shift change in society. We can choose what kind of revolution this is to become. To me it is the Love Revolution. Politics of old giving way to peace and understanding. Standing as one against hate and intolerance. Reaching out to other communities to work together to help stop radicalization. Accepting others point of view. Encourage dialog and compromise. Helping those who are down on their luck. Embracing all cultures and races. Working together for a better world one random act of kindness at a time. Who is with me! Stand up for what is right and speak out when something is wrong.”

“Everyone who is a comedian or an actor or a musician have many people who influenced them. They in turn influence others. It is a great thing that is handed down. We need to know our history because our art is created from the re-imaginings from our minds with the seeds of the greats who combined as a potpourri in our heads to create something new. You can see it in my stand up. You can hear it in the music of today”

“You will never see me publicly putting a comic down or trying to get them unbooked. If I have a problem with someone they will know. I try to do what is right and not what is easy. You will never see me make jokes about peoples addictions or cries for help. OR other peoples pain for that matter. I believe in lifting up. Not tearing down. Uplift you fellow man. We were born to love one another and to that end I promise what I do in my life is in the name of love.”

“Rosabella Beauty was the daughter of the famous Beauty, a girl whose love had turned the Beast back into a prince. Darling Charming was the daughter of the renowned King Charming, whose royal storyline stretched back to the very beginning of stories. The Charming men had always been known for their heroic deeds, luxurious hair, and enchanting eyes. Darling's two brothers were expected to follow in King Charming's heroic footsteps by saving damsels, slaying dragons, and basically conquering whatever evil stepped into their paths. Darling, however, was not a son. She was a daughter. And being a daughter was a different matter altogether. No heroic deeds were expected of her. No quests or adventures. While the activities of the Charming princes had always been celebrated by poets and storytellers, the Charming princesses had a singular destiny- to be damsels in distress waiting for rescue.”
