A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
自我
Self
What we have to get clear to kids is that when you offer your stillness and open yourself to the experience of music, it pays you back more than you give.
我们必须让孩子们明白的是,当你让自己安静下来,敞开心扉去体验音乐时,你得到的回报要比你付出的多。
Sometimes I wish that applause would come just a bit later, when it is so beautifully hushed that I feel like holding my breath in the silence of the end.
有时候,我希望掌声能来得晚一点,当它是如此美丽的寂静,我觉得我在最后的寂静中屏住呼吸。
My mother was a jazz fanatic and she wanted me to play the piano so I could play jazz tunes. I wish I had learned but I was too busy getting into trouble!
我母亲是一个爵士乐迷,她想让我弹钢琴,这样我就能弹爵士曲子了。我希望我已经学会了,但是我太忙了,惹上麻烦了!
This is my seventh decade... and every once in a while I get a hankering to re-visit these songs again... songs with which I have had a great relationship.
这是我的第七个十年…每隔一段时间,我就会渴望再次重温这些歌曲……我和这些歌曲有着很好的关系。
I've always been like that. I was a tomboy when I was a kid, so I was always playing baseball and basketball and football and stuff as a kid with the boys.

I think it's one of the main negative emotional ingredients that fuels show business, because there's so much at stake and the fear of failure looms large.
我认为这是推动演艺圈发展的主要消极情绪因素之一,因为这关系到很多事情,对失败的恐惧也很突出。
Just going along with this, what I did, or what I do is I imagine not being myself seeing it, but imagine somebody else who's seeing it for the first time.
就这样,我所做的,或者说我所做的是想象不是我自己看到它,而是想象别人第一次看到它。
I always wanted to act, but I never thought it would be my profession. I thought that I'd end up doing other things, but that in the meantime I'd do plays.
我一直想演戏,但从未想过这是我的职业。我原以为我会做其他事情,但与此同时,我要做戏剧。
I hope I'm better today than I was yesterday. I don't believe in glory days or anything like that, so I think the best is tomorrow or later this afternoon!
我希望我今天比昨天好。我不相信光荣的日子或类似的事情,所以我认为最好的是明天或今天下午晚些时候!
I thought that the chief thing to be done in order to equal boys was to be learned and courageous. So I decided to study Greek and learn to manage a horse.

Before my teen years, I was losing my hearing pretty quickly, and I was getting very, very angry. I was beginning to become an angry person because of that.

KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
I cannot lead you into battle. I do not give you laws or administer justice but I can do something else - I can give my heart and my devotion to these old islands and to all the peoples of our brotherhood of nations.
我不能带你去打仗。我不给你们制定法律,也不主持正义,但我可以做些别的事情——我可以把我的心和我的奉献给这些古老的岛屿和我们各国人民的兄弟情谊。
The best thing I've learned is, if you're going out, never go out alone - you leave yourself vulnerable. If you've got someone else there you trust, they can say, be wary of that person. I probably used to be too trusting of people.
我学到的最好的一件事是,如果你要出去,永远不要一个人出去——你会让自己变得脆弱。如果你信任另外一个人,他们会说,小心那个人。我以前可能太信任别人了。
I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do.
我只是一个人,但我就是一个人。我不能做所有的事,但我能做一些事。我不会让我不能做的事妨碍我能做的事。
I'm not a good time-off person. I'm awful on holiday. It comes from having that period when I didn't work. That really was the worst bit.

I think I have something tonight that's not quite correct for evening wear. Blue suede shoes.

I don't hurt or want for visibility, but people seem to forget pretty easily.
我不想伤害别人,也不想让别人看到我,但人们似乎很容易忘记我。
