A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
感觉
Sense
Our sense of worth, of well-being, even our sanity depends upon our remembering. But, alas, our sense of worth, our well-being, our sanity also depend upon our forgetting.
我们的价值感,幸福感,甚至我们的理智都依赖于我们的记忆。但是,唉,我们的价值感,我们的幸福,我们的理智也依赖于我们的遗忘。
Animals... don't have a sense of time. You just have to do things over and over with animals until they happen to do it right because they don't really know what you want.
动物……没有时间观念。你必须一遍又一遍地和动物打交道,直到它们碰巧做对了,因为它们并不知道你真正想要的是什么。
I'm an inventor. I became interested in long-term trends because an invention has to make sense in the world in which it is finished, not the world in which it is started.
我是一个发明家。我之所以对长期趋势感兴趣,是因为一项发明必须在它完成的地方有意义,而不是在它开始的地方。
The reserve of modern assertions is sometimes pushed to extremes, in which the fear of being contradicted leads the writer to strip himself of almost all sense and meaning.
现代断言的含蓄有时被推到极端,在这种情况下,对被反驳的恐惧使作者几乎丧失了所有的意义和意义。
Just to have that sense of family, it gives you something that you know you need to take care of for the rest of your life. People gave it to him, and he passed it on to us.
只是为了有家的感觉,它给了你一些你知道你需要照顾你的余生。人们把它给了他,他把它传给了我们。
Everybody certainly has the right to defend themselves. That's not to say that they should defy common sense by avoiding or diffusing confrontation. And that's very, very important.
每个人都有保护自己的权利。这并不是说他们应该无视常识,避免或分散对抗。这非常非常重要。
I call it like the domino theory of reality. If you can go one step at a time and it seems to make sense, you can then take your audience into an area that is relatively outlandish.
我称之为多米诺现实理论。如果你能一步一个脚印,而且似乎很有道理,你就能把你的观众带到一个相对奇怪的领域。
I think of myself as a writer with a sense of humour rather than a comedy writer. Happy to tell a story with lots of jokes in it - I wouldn't know how to do jokes without the story.
我认为自己是一个有幽默感的作家,而不是一个喜剧作家。很高兴能讲一个有很多笑话的故事——如果没有这个故事,我不知道怎么讲笑话。
In a profound sense we may say that the crucifixion, however else we may interpret it, accuses human nature, accuses all of us in the very things that we think are our righteousness.
在一个深刻的意义上,我们可以说,钉十字架,无论我们如何解释它,是在指责人性,在我们认为是我们的正义的事情上指责我们所有人。
Of the seven experiments, the ones that have been most investigated so far have been the pets. The dogs who know when their masters for coming home, and the sense of being stared at.
在这七个实验中,迄今为止被调查最多的是宠物。狗知道主人什么时候回家,还有被人盯着看的感觉。
It is that, but really, it's about how we don't recognise the little things in life, or appreciate the little things in life like belonging. A sense of belonging is a big thing today.
就是这样,但实际上,这是关于我们如何不去认识生活中的小事情,或者欣赏生活中的小事情,比如归属感。归属感在今天很重要。
When a pianist sits down and does a virtuoso performance he is in a technical sense transmitting more information to a machine than any other human activity involving machinery allows.
当一个钢琴家坐下来进行一场精湛的演奏时,从技术上讲,他向机器传递的信息比任何涉及机器的人类活动都要多。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。

以我的标准来看,我有很强的道德感。
Common sense needs to be more common.
常识需要变得更加普遍。
A sense of humor is great - it goes a long, long way in a marriage.
幽默感是伟大的——它在婚姻中走得很远。
I would hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo, and if an echo sounded, no matter how faintly, I would send other words to tell, to march, to fight, to create a sense of hunger for life that gnaws in us all.
我要向黑暗中投入言语,等待回音,如果回音响起,无论多么微弱,我都要发出其他的言语去诉说,去行军,去战斗,去创造一种对生活的渴望,这种渴望吞噬着我们所有人。
It makes sense that whatever the topic is, it's more compelling if you can provide the audience with a range of perspectives, and you can cross disciplines. And you don't have to control what people take out of it.
无论主题是什么,如果你能向观众提供一系列的视角,你能跨越学科,那么它就更有吸引力,这是有道理的。你不需要控制人们从中得到了什么。
