"For all that I was lost, I am found, it is probably more accurate to say, I was really lost, I'm a little less so at the moment."
"لكل ما ضعت فيه، ها أنا ذا وُجدت، ولعل الأدق أن أقول: كنت تائهاً حقاً، وأنا الآن أقل ضياعاً بقليل."
Bono

"Overcoming my dad telling me that I could never amount to anything is what has made me the megalomaniac that you see today."
"إن التغلب على مقولة أبي لي بأنني لن أفلح في شيء قط، هو ما صقلني لأكون المتضخم ذاتياً الذي ترونه اليوم."
Bono
"U2 is an original species... there are colours and feelings and emotional terrain that we occupy that is ours and ours alone."
"فرقة U2 سلالة فريدة من نوعها... لنا ألوان ومشاعر وتضاريس وجدانية خاصة بنا وحدنا."
Bono
"I accept the Old Testament as more of an action movie: blood, car chases, evacuations, a lot of special effects, seas dividing, mass murder, adultery. The children of God are running amok, wayward. Maybe that's why they're so relatable."
"أرى العهد القديم أشبه بفيلم حركة صاخب: دماء، مطاردات، إجلاء، الكثير من المؤثرات الخاصة، انشقاق البحار، مجازر جماعية، زنى. أبناء الرب جامحون، ضالون. ربما لهذا السبب نجدهم قريبين إلى نفوسنا."
Bono
"Technology is huge; I wanted to learn about it. People might say that's odd, but I think it's odd if artists aren't interested in the world around them. I'm always chasing that."
"التقنية عالمٌ رحب؛ أردتُ أن أستكشفه. قد يرى البعض ذلك غريبًا، لكني أرى الغرابة الحقيقية في ألا يهتم الفنانون بالعالم من حولهم. هذا ما أسعى إليه دائمًا."
Bono
"Marriage is this grand madness, and I think if people knew that, they would perhaps take it more seriously."
"الزواج جنون عظيم، وأظن لو أدرك الناس ذلك، لربما تعاملوا معه بجدية أكبر."
Bono
"The idea that there is one kind of African is, of course, ridiculous. Sometimes African entrepreneurs want to kill you because you are saying public health is the priority, not roads. Of course they are right to press for that issue, but so are we right, I believe, to argue, for example, that millions of children could and should be vaccinated."
"فكرة وجود نوع واحد من الأفارقة هي، بالطبع، سخيفة. أحيانًا يرغب رواد الأعمال الأفارقة في قتلك لأنك تقول إن الصحة العامة هي الأولوية، لا الطرق. وهم محقون، بالطبع، في الضغط من أجل قضيتهم تلك، لكننا أيضًا محقون، في اعتقادي، في المجادلة، على سبيل المثال، بأن ملايين الأطفال يمكن وينبغي تطعيمهم."
Bono
"Mandela's heroism is the heroism of a man who suffered so badly for what he thought of as freedom. And yet when he had the upper hand he has this incredible self-control and these incredible leadership qualities."
"بطولة مانديلا هي بطولة رجل عانى الأمرين في سبيل ما اعتبره حرية. ومع ذلك، حين دانت له الغلبة، تحلى بضبط نفس مذهل وبصفات قيادية لا تُصدق."
Bono
"As a rock star, I have two instincts, I want to have fun, and I want to change the world. I have a chance to do both."
"كنجم لموسيقى الروك، لدي غريزتان: أرغب في الاستمتاع، وأرغب في تغيير العالم. وأنا أملك فرصة لتحقيق كليهما."
Bono
"But with Christ, we have access in a one-to-one relationship, for, as in the Old Testament, it was more one of worship and awe, a vertical relationship. The New Testament, on the other hand, we look across at a Jesus who looks familiar, horizontal. The combination is what makes the Cross."
"مع المسيح، نلج إلى علاقة فردية مباشرة؛ فبينما كانت في العهد القديم علاقة عبادة ورهبة، علاقة عمودية، نرى في العهد الجديد يسوع مألوفًا، علاقة أفقية. هذا المزيج هو ما يصنع الصليب."
Bono
"Facebook are an amazing team, a brilliant team. It's a technology that brings people together."
"فريق فيسبوك فريق مذهل، فريق عبقري. إنها تقنية تجمع الناس."
Bono
"Religion can be the enemy of God. It's often what happens when God, like Elvis, has left the building."
"قد يكون الدين عدو الله. فكثيراً ما يحدث ذلك حين يغادر الله، كإلفيس، المبنى."
Bono
"It's a privilege to serve the poor, to be servants of noble Africans, but I better belong in the rehearsal room or in the studio with my band. That's where I want to be and I still wake up in the morning with melodies in my head."
Bono
"What turns me on about the digital age, what excited me personally, is that you have closed the gap between dreaming and doing. You see, it used to be that if you wanted to make a record of a song, you needed a studio and a producer. Now, you need a laptop."
Bono
"So what we're talking about here is human rights. The right to live like a human. The right to live, period. And what we're facing in Africa is an unprecedented threat to human dignity and equality."
Bono
"It's annoying, but justice and equality are mates. Aren't they? Justice always wants to hang out with equality. And equality is a real pain."
Bono
"You see, Africa makes a fool of our idea of justice. It makes a farce of our idea of equality. It mocks our pieties. It doubts our concern. It questions our commitment. Because there is no way we can look at what's happening in Africa, and if we're honest, conclude that it would ever be allowed to happen anywhere else."
Bono
"Jesus isn't lettin' you off the hook. The Scriptures don't let you off the hook so easily... When people say, you know, 'Good teacher', 'Prophet', 'Really nice guy' ... this is not how Jesus thought of Himself."
Bono
"When people say, you know, 'Good teacher,' 'Prophet,' 'Really nice guy'... this is not how Jesus thought of Himself. So you're left with a challenge in that, which is either Jesus was who he said he was or a complete and utter nut case. You have to make a choice on that."
