Certamente Mick Jagger (Rolling Stones) conosceva bene questo
proverbio italiano, quando, nel 1968 scrisse la canzone
"You Can't Always Get What You Want";
Ha arricchito di esempi e musica un nostro semplice modo di dire.
Quote from the song's lyrics:
You can't always get what you want, no!
But if you try sometimes well you just might find
You get what you need
Oh Yes! Woo!
O forse e' qualcosa che prima o poi scopriamo tutti ?
=== Ancora non chiaro ?
I have another example handy, in another language and a definitely more interesting subject:
example # 2 :
It's ok for me just to answer, joking a little bit, to Amie's questions,
I don't get ill if I may not ask her out for dinner.
