A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
规则
Rules
Heart is what drives us and determines our fate. That is what I need for my characters in my books: a passionate heart. I need mavericks, dissidents, adventurers, outsiders and rebels, who ask questions, bend the rules and take risks.
心是我们的动力，决定我们的命运。这就是我书中人物所需要的:一颗充满激情的心。我需要标新立异的人、持不同政见者、冒险家、局外人和反叛者，他们提出问题，扭曲规则，敢于冒险。
The fact that biological, or atural rules might help in the creation of a computer generated work of art is interesting, but even a wonderful work of art made in this fashion isn't the same as a person, with all his or her experiences and emotions involved, making art.
生物或自然规律可能有助于计算机生成的艺术作品的创作，这一事实很有趣，但即使是用这种方式创作的美妙艺术品，也与一个人不同，他或她所有的经历和情感都参与了艺术创作。
There are two great rules in life, the one general and the other particular. The first is that every one can in the end get what he wants if he only tries. This is the general rule. The particular rule is that every individual is more or less of an exception to the rule.
生活中有两条伟大的规则，一条是普遍的，另一条是特殊的。第一，只要努力，每个人最终都能得到他想要的。这是一般规律。特别的规则是，每个人或多或少都是规则的例外。

I think every journalist understands when they are the beneficiary of hot information that, yes, they have a scoop, but they're also being used. Part of your responsibility as a journalist is to tell the story of why that information is coming to you, consistent with the ground rules of your sourcing.
我想每个记者都明白，当他们成为热点信息的受益者时，他们有独家新闻，但也被利用。作为一名记者，你的部分责任是讲述为什么这些信息会来到你身边，这符合你获取信息的基本规则。
I started writing by doing small related things but not the thing itself, circling it and getting closer. I had no idea how to write fiction. So I did journalism because there were rules I could learn. You can teach someone to write a news story. They might not write a great one, but you can teach that pretty easily.
我开始写作的时候，只是做一些与写作相关的小事情，而不是写作本身。我不知道怎么写小说。所以我做新闻是因为我可以学到一些规则。你可以教别人写新闻故事。他们可能写得不好，但你可以很容易地教他们。

虽然没有一条规则是有效的，但是继续制定它们是健康的。
