At this stage in my career, I don't have to take any big risks. You want to take a calculated risk, not one that leads to people saying 'yes, but there was that one time when she made that big mistake.' It's always a shame when that happens, especially if you've gotten by for decades without anything hugely tragic.

  • -- Renee Fleming 弗莱明

在我职业生涯的这个阶段,我不需要冒任何大的风险。你想要冒一个经过深思熟虑的风险,而不是让人们说“是的,但有一次她犯了一个大错误”。发生这种事总是令人遗憾,尤其是如果你几十年来没有经历过任何巨大的悲剧。
