A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

Relationship
And one thing that I always believed and that I knew for certain was that I could never have sustained a personal relationship while I worked this hard, or while I was that driven this intensely by the story.
有一件事我一直相信，而且我也很确定，那就是当我这么努力工作的时候，或者当我被这个故事强烈地驱使着的时候，我不可能维持一段私人关系。
I've sort of had an investigatory relationship with being a musician. I really wasn't sure what I wanted to do. I felt I had had my run - I had done Jane's and I wasn't particularly interested in music anymore.
作为一名音乐家，我有一种调查的关系。我真的不确定我想做什么。我觉得我已经完成了我的跑步——我完成了简的跑步，我对音乐不再特别感兴趣了。
The first and most important is to emphasize the enduring nature of the alliance relationship particularly with Europe which does share our values and interests even if it disagrees with us on specific policies.
首先，也是最重要的是，要强调联盟关系的持久性，尤其是与欧洲的联盟关系。欧洲与我们有共同的价值观和利益，即使它在具体政策上与我们意见相左。
Waterpolo is my life. Our relationship is that of predetermination I'll never be better at anything than waterpolo and that is why it is my duty to pursue this sport as long as I can, and to the best of my abilities.
水球是我的生命。我们的关系是预先决定的，我永远不会比水球更好，这就是为什么我的责任，追求这项运动，只要我能，并尽我最大的能力。
Too often we don't realize what we have until its gone. Too often we're too stubborn to say sorry, I was wrong. Too often it seems we hurt the ones closest to our hearts, and we let the most foolish things tear us apart.
很多时候，我们直到失去了才意识到我们所拥有的。我们常常固执地说对不起，我错了。太多时候，我们似乎伤害了最亲密的人，让最愚蠢的事情把我们撕裂。
You don't repair that relationship by sitting down and talking about trust or making promises. Actually, what rebuilds it is living it and doing things differently - and I think that is what is going to make the difference.
你不能坐下来谈论信任或做出承诺来修复这种关系。事实上，重建它的是生活方式的改变和做事的方式的改变——我认为这就是改变的原因。
The mother-child relationship is paradoxical and, in a sense, tragic. It requires the most intense love on the mother's side, yet this very love must help the child grow away from the mother, and to become fully independent.
母子关系是矛盾的，在某种意义上是悲剧的。它需要母亲最强烈的爱，但这种爱必须帮助孩子远离母亲，成长为完全独立的人。
To pass from estrangement from God to be a son of God is the basic fact of conversion. That altered relationship with God gives you an altered relationship with yourself, with your brother man, with nature, with the universe.

The decision to kiss for the first time is the most crucial in any love story. It changes the relationship of two people much more strongly than even the final surrender; because this kiss already has within it that surrender.

I'd think,'In a relationship, we should never have his kind of fight.' Then, instead of figuring out how to make it work, I looked for a way to get out of it. The truth is, you shouldn't be married if your that kind of person.
我想，在一段感情中，我们永远不应该有他那样的争吵。然后，我没有想办法让它运作起来，而是想办法摆脱它。事实上，如果你是那种人，你就不应该结婚。
I've been an atheist since I was nine years old. And my mom is really religious, so we have a strange relationship. But if my mother was right, what would be the reason that the gods could let anything bad happen in the world?
我从九岁起就是个无神论者。我妈妈很虔诚，所以我们的关系很奇怪。但是如果我妈妈是对的，那么为什么上帝会让世界上发生任何不好的事情呢?
Conflict can and should be handled constructively when it is, relationships benefit. Conflict avoidance is not the hallmark of a good relationship. On the contrary, it is a symptom of serious problems and of poor communication.

I was glad to hear of that determination as I detest the practice of cousins marrying or any marriage between persons in which there can be traced the most distant relationship. I go for the improvement instead of the deterioration of our race.
