Jilano Posted November 7, 2016 Author Share Posted November 7, 2016 302044 I tried my hardest to understand the Asterix and Obelix quote but my French is too rusty >.< In the english version of the movie, it became (may not be 100% accurate, couldn't find it with subtitles and my oral comprehension is not the best xD): " I don't define myself by the work I do. I'm a scribe, yes, but that's not the only Me; there's a universe of Mes I want to be during my brief time in this life. I'd love to try... I'd love to try bullfighting. I'd like to learn how to figure skate, to make wine, to paint, act -that'd be fun-. I want to move my lips in French, and have words come out in English! I want to swim with the dolphins. I want to see China. This is a planet of treasures and wonders and I simply can't understand how anyone can limit himself to the narrow confines of his job, but of course that's just... Me. " Here it is, roughly translated in french, word-for-word (again, may not be 100% accurate, and probably don't even really make sense x') ): “ I do not think there’s any good or bad situations. If I had to summarized my life here to you, I'd say it's mostly encounters. People who gave me a hand, maybe at some point when I was alone. And it is odd to realize that unexpected events, these encounters forge a destiny... For when we have a taste for something, when we have a taste for something well done, the fine gesture, sometimes you simply cannot find the interlocutor I would say, the mirror that helps you going forward. It's not my condition, as I said earlier, because, on the contrary, I could : and I say thank you to life, I say thank you, I sing with the spirit of life, I dance in my life, I’m all love; and finally today when many people ask me: But how do you manage to have this attitude? And, well I say it very simple, I tell them that it is a flavor of love, so that special flavor drove me here today, to undertake engineering, but tomorrow, who knows, maybe I’ll just serve the community, serve, donate the gift of self. ” 302055 Who doesnt?

Jilano Posted November 7, 2016 Author Share Posted November 7, 2016 302452 That was a very through introduction, color me impressed. 0.0 nice to meet ya! We won't be rivals (cf. your own introduction) as we're not on the same server :3 (well actually I do have 120+ hours on Blue but haven't been there since April xD) I'm not as impressive as you seems to think, though, I'm just like you, but with waaay too much free time... and I'm a bit too perfectionist. :Angel: Nice to meet you too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
