A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
原因
Reason
There is no magical reason why I am where I am. And there is absolutely no reason why you can't be where you want to be. If it can happen for me, it can happen for you, too. And it would be a privilege for me to help you get there.
我在这里没有什么神奇的原因。你完全没有理由不能去你想去的地方。如果这能发生在我身上,你也能。我很荣幸能帮助你们做到这一点。
Vicodin, I got addicted to that little pill. The reason I don't talk about it too much in the press is because it isn't funny, and I love to be funny in interviews. If you joke about that period in your life, it doesn't seem right.
维柯丁,我对那种小药丸上瘾了。我不常在媒体上谈论它的原因是因为它并不有趣,而我喜欢在采访中表现得有趣。如果你拿你生命中的那段时间开玩笑,这似乎是不对的。
I will throw all my best efforts into it, my thoughts and political observations, but ultimately I want to create a narrative that keeps you turning the pages and leaves you with a sense that this thing has a reason for being there.
我将尽我最大的努力,我的想法和政治观察,但最终我想创造一个故事,让你不断翻动书页,让你感觉这件事存在的理由。
I would never jeopardize classified information to be brought out to the public. This information is all open source. There is no reason to worry about classification. It is simply an attempt by bureaucrats to cover their rear ends.
我绝不会把要公之于众的机密信息置于危险境地。这些信息都是开源的。没有理由担心分类。这只不过是官僚们试图掩盖自己的弱点。
Could I say that the reason that I am here today, you know, from the mouth of the State Department itself, is: I should not be allowed to travel because I have struggled for years for the independence of the colonial peoples of Africa.
我能否说,我今天站在这里的原因,你知道,从国务院自己的口中,是:我不应该被允许旅行,因为我为非洲殖民地人民的独立奋斗了多年。
This ship was a league from us, and some of the men would have taken her, and I would not consent to it, and this Moore said I always hindered them making their fortunes. Was that not the reason I struck him? Was there a mutiny on board?
这艘船离我们只有一里路,有些人会把它抢走,而我是不会同意的。穆尔说,我总是阻碍他们发财致富。这不是我打他的原因吗?船上有兵变吗?
Mathematics as an expression of the human mind reflects the active will, the contemplative reason, and the desire for aesthetic perfection. Its basic elements are logic and intuition, analysis and construction, generality and individuality.
数学作为人类思维的一种表达方式,反映了人类积极的意志、沉思的理性和对审美完美的渴望。其基本要素是逻辑与直觉、分析与建构、共性与个性。
He did not arrive at this conclusion by the decent process of quiet, logical deduction, nor yet by the blinding flash of glorious intuition, but by the shoddy, untidy process halfway between the two by which one usually gets to know things.
他得出这个结论,既不是靠平静的、合乎逻辑的推理,也不是靠闪光的、令人眼花缭乱的直觉,而是靠一种粗陋的、杂乱无章的、介于两者之间的过程,人们通常是通过这种过程来认识事物的。
Words are the children of reason and, therefore, can't explain it. They really can't translate feeling because they're not part of it. That's why it bugs me when people try to analyze jazz as an intellectual theorem. It's not. It's feeling.
言语是理智之子,因此无法解释。他们真的无法表达自己的感受,因为他们不是其中的一部分。这就是为什么当人们试图把爵士乐作为一个智力定理来分析时,我感到很烦。它不是。它的感觉。
I think a reason that a lot of people feel politically paralysed is that it used to be clear how power was organised. But those who have their hands on the levers of popular culture today have great power - and it isn't even clear who they are.
我认为,许多人感到政治瘫痪的一个原因是,过去人们很清楚权力是如何组织起来的。但是,那些掌握着当今流行文化杠杆的人拥有巨大的权力——甚至不清楚他们是谁。
I was going to shave it. It went in two parts. I got a bob first but it kept falling all over my face. Then it was off, short. The main reason it was long was because my mother cut it short when I was little and I was trying to make up for that.
我正要刮胡子呢。它分为两部分。我先有一个波波头,但它一直落在我脸上。然后就关了,很短。长头发的主要原因是我小的时候妈妈把头发剪短了,我想弥补这一点。
The only objects of practical reason are therefore those of good and evil. For by the former is meant an object necessarily desired according to a principle of reason; by the latter one necessarily shunned, also according to a principle of reason.
因此,现实理性的唯一对象是善与恶。因为前者是根据理性原则所必然要求的对象;后者必然被回避,这也是基于理性原则。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
The only reason that you do visual is solely for the visual. That's the only reason. It doesn't sell your music for you.
你做视觉的唯一原因仅仅是为了视觉。这是唯一的原因。它不会为你销售你的音乐。
The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was and the present worse than it is.
人们发现很难快乐的原因是他们总是看到过去比过去更好,现在比过去更糟。
Fear not those who argue but those who dodge.
不要怕争辩的人,要怕逃避的人。
Could that have been what happened to the human race - a willing perversity that set at naught all human values which had been so hardly won and structured in the light of reason for a span of more than a million years?
难道这就是发生在人类身上的事情——一种心甘情愿的任性行为,无视人类的一切价值,而这些价值在一百多万年的时间里是如此难以赢得,而且是按照理性来构建的吗?
And hence he must be invisible; for a spirit cannot be seen by the eye of man: nor is there any thing in this principle contradictory to reason or experience.
因此他必须是隐形的;因为人的眼睛是看不见精神的。在这个原则里,也没有什么东西是与理性或经验相矛盾的。
