A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
自我
Self
By that point, I had started taking singing lessons. And after the first session, I mean, I was surprised that the windows didn't shatter. And after the third session, I really didn't know where this voice had come from.
那时，我已经开始上歌唱课了。在第一节课之后，我的意思是，我很惊讶窗户没有破碎。在第三次治疗之后，我真的不知道这个声音是从哪里来的。
I would like to be remembered as a guy who had a set of priorities, and was willing to live by those priorities. In terms of accomplishments, my biggest accomplishment is that I kept the country safe amidst a real danger.
我希望人们记住我是一个有一系列优先事项的人，并且愿意按照这些优先事项生活。就成就而言，我最大的成就是在真正的危险中维护了国家的安全。
I think a moratorium probably is legal, and we should probably for a short period of time impose a moratorium so that we don't permit any additional landfill permits for the time being, so we don't exacerbate the problem.
我认为暂停填埋可能是合法的，我们可能应该在短时间内暂停填埋，这样我们就不会允许任何额外的填埋许可，这样我们就不会使问题恶化。
I was performing in this burlesque group, and we would go to dance rehearsals every day. You'd use every part of your body. Even though some of it is slow, it takes a lot of muscle to be able to dip down and come back up.
我在这个滑稽剧团体里表演，我们每天都会去排练舞蹈。你会使用你身体的每一部分。虽然有些速度很慢，但要想下潜再上来需要很大的肌肉。
I want to be an entrepreneur too; I like the business side of things. When I was younger I wanted to be a vet or a tightrope walker. But I have no sense of balance and I can't bear animals dying, so I abandoned both ideas.
我也想成为一名企业家;我喜欢商业方面的东西。当我年轻的时候，我想成为一名兽医或走钢丝者。但是我没有平衡感，我不能忍受动物的死亡，所以我放弃了这两种想法。
My father, though, could run very much faster. It was impossible to compete with him on the grass. But it was astonishing how slow old people were. Some of them could not run up a hill and called it trying to climb stairs.
然而，我的父亲可以跑得更快。在草地上与他竞争是不可能的。但令人惊讶的是，老年人竟如此迟钝。他们中的一些人跑不上小山，叫它爬楼梯。
Normally, I could hit hard enough, as anyone who studied my fights might have known. But the impression was that I was essentially defensive, the very reverse of a killer, the prize fighter who read books, even Shakespeare.
正常情况下，我能打出足够的重拳，任何研究过我拳法的人都知道这一点。但我给人的印象是，我本质上是防御性的，与一个杀手截然相反，一个阅读书籍的职业拳击手，甚至是莎士比亚。
When I was younger, I had no interest. But after I went to Paris to see the collections for the first time a few years ago, they made a huge impression on me. I realized that fashion is an art form, like acting or painting.
当我年轻的时候，我没有兴趣。但几年前，当我第一次去巴黎看这些收藏品时，它们给我留下了深刻的印象。我意识到时尚是一种艺术形式，就像表演或绘画一样。
If honest of heart and uprightness before God were lacking or if I did not patiently wait on God for instruction, or if I preferred the counsel of my fellow-men to the declarations of the Word of God, I made great mistakes.
我若在神面前不存诚实正直的心、不耐性等候神的指教、不领受他的教训、重听他同胞的劝戒、不领受他所传的道、就大错特错了。
On the other hand, I'm very tolerant as well. I expect that everybody can play what they want. I'm only not tolerant when it comes to myself and what is presented on my album that I have to listen to for the rest of my life.
另一方面，我也很宽容。我希望每个人都能玩他们想玩的。我只是对我自己和我的专辑里所呈现的东西不宽容，而我的余生都要听这些东西。
Usually, in the studio, on this sort of thing... you just go out and have a play over it, and see what comes, and it's usually - mostly - the first take that's the best one, and you find yourself repeating yourself thereafter.
通常在演播室里，关于这类事情……你只要出去玩一玩，看看会发生什么，通常——大多数情况下——第一次尝试是最好的一次，然后你发现自己在重复自己的想法。
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。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I had a very difficult childhood. I was surrounded by people who had both parents, which made me feel different. Having a bit of a rougher existence early on, it made me appreciate the work ethic that my grandparents instilled in me.
我有一个非常困难的童年。我周围的人都有父母，这让我感觉不一样。早年的生活比较艰苦，这让我懂得了祖父母灌输给我的职业道德。
When I cook with my son, I might chop vegetables and have fun with different shapes. Cooking is a way to teach kids about other things, like reading or math with all of the weights and measures. There are so many things that are part of cooking that are also very educational.
当我和我的儿子一起做饭时，我可能会切蔬菜，和不同的形状玩得很开心。烹饪是教孩子其他事情的一种方式，比如用所有的砝码和量具来阅读或数学。烹饪中有很多东西都很有教育意义。
My pride fell with my fortunes.
我的自尊心随着我的命运而下降。
As far as I can judge, not much good can be done without disturbing something or somebody.
在我看来，如果不打扰某人或某件事，就不会有什么好事发生。
I write and rewrite and rewrite and write and like to turn in what I think is finished work.
我写啊，写啊，写啊，写啊，喜欢把我认为已经完成的东西交上来。
