Stevie Wonder: Cytaty po angielsku

“The sensation of seeing is not one that I have and not one that I worry about.”

As quoted in Stevie Wonder (1978) by Constanze Elsner, and Jet Vol. 53, No. 22 (16 February 1978), p. 60
1970s
Kontekst: Sometimes I think I would love to see … just to see the beauty of flowers and trees and birds and the earth and grass. … Being as I've never seen, I don't know what it's like to see. So in a sense I'm complete. Maybe I'd be incomplete if I did see. Maybe I'd see some things that I didn't want to see... the beauty of the earth compared to the destruction of man. You see, it's one thing when you are blind from birth, and you don't know what it's like to see, anyway, so it is just like seeing. The sensation of seeing is not one that I have and not one that I worry about.

Got a counterfeit dollar in his hand,
He's misstra know-it-all.”

Though they do pretend,
They won't go when I go.”

With it stronger every day,
But being too shy to say
That I really love you.”

That's what my friends ask me,
And I say it's taken him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come.”

Down my dead end street?
Would you like to come with me
To village ghetto land?”
