You cannot copy it directly, but you can copy the text from text edit mode and then paste it into a view.

That doesn't really solve my problem because I have like 100 little notes, not being all in one single text annotation. 

Is it also possible to copy lines? But thank you anyways, I've learnt a new thing.

I didn't say anything about pasting. I said Group the Text in Sheet View, then open a Model View and place an instance of the Group.

Do you know how to GROUP?  Create a GROUP of all the text and then go to a Model View, select the Group in the Project Browser, right-click and press "Create Instance".  Place GROUP instance in the View.

The view where you place the group must have the scale of 1:1 to match the sheet.

I have the same problem, but when I place the group its just places it all on top of each other and not where it should be. Do you know how to fix that? Thanks in advance

Did you set the scale of the plan view to 1:1 like ToanDN said above? The scale of a sheet is 1:1 so the plan view must be set to 1:1 for it to place in the same way.
