Born Japanese Singer

Famous quotes containing the words born, japanese and/or singer:

    And am I born to die?
    To lay this body down?
    And must my trembling spirit fly
    Into a world unknown?
    Charles Wesley (1707–1788)

    In fact, the whole of Japan is a pure invention. There is no such country, there are no such people.... The Japanese people are ... simply a mode of style, an exquisite fancy of art.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    The question is not ... if art is enough to fulfill my life, but if I am true to the path I have set for myself, if I am the best I can be in the things I do. Am I living up to the reasons I became a singer in the first place?
    Kathleen Battle (b. 1948)
