Bei mir geht es ! Meinst Du den Ausschnitt von Katarina Witt über ihre Beziehung zu RDA ?
Hier ist er:
so, hab eh grad nix zu tun, also werd ich den Teil aus Kati Witts Buch ''Only with Passion'' über Richard Dean Anderson mal eintippen (p.67/68)- schreibfehler kommen dann wenn von mir, nciht aus dem Buch
''In my life it is all about me,'' I(Kati) said, laughing. ''And at this point in your life, it has to be all about you as well, if you want to reach your potential.''
''But any relationship has compromises. There's give - and - take.''
''I always had relationschips on the side, but my focus was skating. I loved flirting, to be with men, to have a special man, but I knew skating was my absolute priority. And that basically always stayed the same. And I was always clear about that with my boyfreinds.''
''Speaking of boyfriends, didn't you date MacGyver once? The actor?''
''Richard Dean Anderson. Yes. Richard and I had a serious, intense relationship. It's way more complicated than I'm going to get into, but there were a myriad of reasons why it didn't work out. Part of it was culture shock. Iwas inexperienced, everything was new to me, that wall had just come down, there was a language barrier between us, he was famous, we were living on different continents, and the tabloids were constantly following us around. He wouldn't give up anything careerwise. And I wouldn't give up anything. And that only works for a short while. If you want to become really serious, to have the relationship work, then somebody has to play second violoin. I haven't been willing to do that. A lot of times when things didn't work out with one of my boyfriends, it wasn't that we didn't understand or love one another. It was that each of us was too passionate about our careers.''
''It sounds pretty self - centered.''
''If you want to be the best at something, as self - centered as it sounds, this is how it has to be. Everything around you has to support you if you want to be the best in tennis or golf or skating or anything. You can't look left and right. You have to have the blinders on. If you want to have the best in something, everything else comes second and third. If you want to make compomises, sport is the wrong business to be in. I can't think of any exceptions to this. If you want to be Olympic champion, nothing can be allowed to stand in your way. Look, Jasmine, you can make compromises. You can make time for your boy. You can have a good time. But you should know any compomises you make take away from your chances of success. Sport is definitely a field that you cannot make compromises in. It has to be more than a 100 - percend commitment. One hundred percent is not enough. If it's not more than 100 percent, you won't make it. Everything else has to be selected out. That's a desision you have to make. You can't have all.''
Her lips were pursed in a stubborn pout. ''I guess maybe I'm not like you,'' Jasmine said.
''Of course you're not. Everyone's different. You have to find out who you are.''
so... das ist der Teil - es geht zu dem Thema noch ein bisschen weiter, was im groben auch noch dazu gehören würde, aber das wichtigste könnt ihr hier erstma lesen - ma schaun ob ich vllt. später irgendwann noch nen paar stellen poste, die mit Rick zu tun haben könnten.
