A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
信任
Believe
Being an actor myself I realize that all actors believe they are qualified to play any role. If you showed me a script with a black woman character I would tell you that I could do it. That is what we do. We act as if we are someone else.
作为一名演员，我意识到所有的演员都认为自己有资格扮演任何角色。如果你给我看一个有黑人女性角色的剧本，我会告诉你我能做到。这就是我们所做的。我们表现得好像我们是另一个人。
I do believe that when we face challenges in life that are far beyond our own power, it's an opportunity to build on our faith, inner strength, and courage. I've learned that how we face challenges plays a big role in the outcome of them.
我相信，当我们在生活中面临远远超出我们能力范围的挑战时，这是一个建立在我们的信念、内在力量和勇气之上的机会。我明白了我们如何面对挑战对他们的结果有很大的影响。
You got to fight for quality art and equality and all the things that we're fighting for, the things we believe in. Choice and preference and all those things that we support. We don't want to give up that fight. You got to keep doing it.
你必须为高质量的艺术和平等而战，为我们所追求的一切而战，为我们所信仰的一切而战。选择，偏好和所有我们支持的东西。我们不想放弃这场战斗。你必须坚持下去。
It is not that the child lives in a world of imagination, but that the child within us survives and starts into life only at rare moments of recollection, which makes us believe, and it is not true, that, as children, we were imaginative?
这并不是因为孩子生活在想象的世界里，而是因为我们内心的孩子只有在极少的回忆时刻才会生存下来，并开始生活。
There is a fuzzy but real distinction that can and I believe should be made, between patriotism, which is attachment to a way of life, and nationalism, which is the insistence that your way of life deserves to rule over other ways of life.
爱国主义是对一种生活方式的依恋，而民族主义是坚持认为你的生活方式应该凌驾于其他生活方式之上，两者之间有一个模糊但真实的区别，我认为这是可以而且应该做出的区分。
It's a radical time for musicians, a really revolutionary time, and I believe revolutions like Napster are a lot more fun than cash, which by the way we don't have at major labels anyway, so we might as well get with it and get in the game.
对音乐家来说，这是一个激进的时代，一个真正的革命时代，我相信像纳普斯特这样的革命比现金有趣得多，顺便说一句，我们在大唱片公司里没有现金，所以我们不妨接受它，参与其中。
I don't know who said that novelists read the novels of others only to figure out how they are written. I believe it's true. We aren't satisfied with the secrets exposed on the surface of the page: we turn the book around to find the seams.
我不知道是谁说小说家读别人的小说只是为了弄清楚他们是怎么写的。我相信这是真的。我们对暴露在书页表面的秘密并不满意:我们把书翻了个底朝天，寻找缝合线。
I believe that, which is why I know that when my faith was shattered and raged against Him, He still accepted me. And even though I have penciled a black mark in His column, I can be honest about it. That's what a relationship is all about.
我相信，这就是为什么我知道，当我对他的信仰破碎和愤怒时，他仍然接受了我。即使我用铅笔在他的专栏上画了一个黑色的记号，我还是可以实话实说。这就是关系的全部。
The only way that we're going to feel secure in this country again and that we're going to feel good about ourselves is if we use these systems we've put into place to create positive change around the world. I really believe we can do that.
唯一能让我们在这个国家再次感到安全，让我们自我感觉良好的方法是，如果我们使用这些我们已经投入使用的系统，在世界各地创造积极的变革。我真的相信我们能做到。
I actually believe 'Sustainability', as a concept, is one of the arteries leading to the heart of so many of our cultural transitions at play today. And it's this concept which leads me to bottled water, and its multibillion dollar industry.
事实上，我认为“可持续性”作为一个概念，是我们今天许多文化转型的核心之一。正是这个概念让我想到了瓶装水，以及它数十亿美元的产业。
I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick. I believe in pink. I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and... I believe in miracles.
我相信修指甲。我相信过度打扮。我喜欢在闲暇时打扮自己，涂口红。我相信粉色。我相信快乐的女孩是最漂亮的女孩。我相信明天又是新的一天，而且……我相信奇迹。
My earliest memory is dreamlike: in a small orchard or garden I am carried on the arm, I believe, of my father; there was a group of grown-ups, my mother among them, and the group was slowly walking in the orchard, it seems toward the house.
我最早的记忆是梦一般的:在一个小果园或花园里，我相信，是父亲搀扶着我;有一群成年人，其中有我的母亲，这群人正在果园里慢慢地走着，似乎朝着房子走去。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I decided long ago never to walk in anyone's shadow; if I fail, or if I succeed at least I did as I believe.
我很久以前就决定永远不要走在任何人的阴影里;如果我失败了，或者我成功了，至少我做了我相信的事。
I like to follow my favorite team and talk sports with my band or fans. You won't believe how many musicians are sports fans. We have so much time on tour that we need these outlets for relaxation.
我喜欢跟随我最喜欢的球队，和我的乐队或球迷谈论运动。你不会相信有多少音乐家是体育迷。我们有这么多时间在旅游，我们需要这些出口放松。
We're taught Lord Acton's axiom: all power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. I believed that when I started these books, but I don't believe it's always true any more. Power doesn't always corrupt. Power can cleanse. What I believe is always true about power is that power always reveals.
我们学过阿克顿勋爵的格言:所有的权力都腐败，绝对的权力绝对腐败。当我开始写这些书的时候，我相信这一点，但现在我不再相信这一点了。权力并不总是腐败的。权力可以净化。我相信关于权力总是正确的是权力总是揭示。
Anybody who believes that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach flunked geography.
任何相信要想抓住男人的心，就要先抓住他的胃的人，地理考试都不及格。
I used to believe there were people on Mars, and of course now we know there aren't. Mars held particular interest. I was curious what kind of beings they would look like.
我曾经相信火星上有人类，当然现在我们知道没有了。火星引起了特别的兴趣。我很好奇他们会是什么样的人。
I believe that history might be, and ought to be, taught in a new fashion so as to make the meaning of it as a process of evolution intelligible to the young.
我认为，历史可以而且应该以一种新的方式来教授，以便使年轻人能够理解它作为一种进化过程的意义。
