Close, but you miss the point. Lets see if Burke can figure it out.

Oh! Oh! Can I????

 

[Dan]

I notice Burke is dodging this thread with uncharacteristic caution

Sure, go ahead Erik. Du kannst aber perfeckt deutsch.. ja?

 

[jaecole]

Prince Naseem Hamed is the nicest celeb i've ever met. That guy was way cool

 

[Zlatan]

Thats cool.

More importantly, what does my signature say?

What I got was: "I say to you: One must bear chaos in order to become a star."

Am I even close?

 

[Dan]

Well, yes. Burke is the closest so far.

Erik?

Perfekt? Nein kann ich nicht sagen aber ich spreche es ziemlich gut für eine Vierte Sprache.

I wanna wait what Bürke has to say about it before I pull my translation though

About what, what you just said?

Because I have already submitted my answer.

 

[Slagathor]

Oh bugger he already did it. Didn't see that, Bürke.

Alright, disregarding literal translations, it seems to be like an old Dutch proverb: "Ik zeg u, men moet chaos bezitten om tot een schitterende ster te worden" Which would translate into: "I say to you, one must possess chaos in order to be able to become a shining star"

Is it that same proverb?

Fair enough, but you are about 70 percent correct with the words but missing the point.

I also have three bonus questions and to the winner overall I will write a song and play the song on guitar about the winner.


1. Bonus question one:

Whom was the original sayer of that quote?

2: Was this quote said aloud or in writing? If writing, which book?

Edit: 3: what does my avatar symbolise? What is that picture about?

3. What does the quote actually mean? There is no correct answer here, but ill award the points to the person who has the most though intriguing answer.

Dude, i don't even know where I am right now and you want me to try that?

Thats really strange. Yes, you are 95% there. It means: I say to you, one must have choas to give birth to a dancing/shooting star.

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Ohh my god, you're pregnant..................

 

[Slagathor]

Cool. 95%

Wish I did that well at Uni

 

[Slagathor]

Oh, to my untrained foreign eye, the sentence would be better legible if it said:

"Ich sage euch: man muss noch Chaos in sich haben um einen tanzenden Stern gebören zu können"

But like I said, that's a Dutch eye's point of view

Not quite.

You should be able to get my first question. You need to bone up on your history of Germany!

So you're saying Burke and Claire are going to have a quality kid?

Thats the quote as I found it originally. It comes from a hundred years ago, so the german could of been slightly different then.
