Джоэл, Билли: Цитаты на английском языке

“I’d rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints, the sinners are much more fun.”

Вариант: I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints.

“you may be right, I may be crazy, but it just might be a lunatic you're looking for”

You May Be Right.
Song lyrics, Glass Houses (1980)
Контексте: Now think of all the years you tried to
Find someone to satisfy you.
I might be as crazy as you say.
If I'm crazy then it's true
That it's all because of you
And you wouldn't want me any other way.
You may be right
I may be crazy.
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for.
It's too late to fight
It's too late to change me.
You may be wrong for all I know
But you may be right.

“Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true. When will you realize… Vienna waits for you.”

Vienna.
Song lyrics, The Stranger (1977)
Контексте: But you know you can't always see when you're right
You got your passion you got your pride
But don't you know only fools are satisfied?
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize
Vienna waits for you?

“And you know that when the truth is told that you can get what you want or you can just get old.”

Вариант: You can get what you want or you can just get old.

“I'm so romantic
I'm such a passionate man
Sometimes I panic
What if nobody finds out who I am?”

Big Man on Mulberry Street.
Song lyrics, The Bridge (1986)
