A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
小
Small
This whole phenomenon of the diversion of organizations from their purposes and ideals does not seem very serious when the scum rise to the top in the bridge club or the offices of a small magazine publisher.
当这些社会渣子在桥牌俱乐部或一家小杂志出版商的办公室里升到高位时,整个组织偏离其宗旨和理想的现象似乎并不十分严重。
We would have been happy if we could have assigned just three categories, large, medium, and small; the point is, we wanted to avoid personal judgments. It actually turned out to be quite a finely tuned scale.
如果我们可以只分配三个类别,大、中、小,我们会很高兴;关键是,我们想避免个人判断。它实际上是一个非常精细的音阶。
I never had any frustration about writing uncredited. I always felt that the satisfaction of doing it was in the doing of it, really, and getting recognised by the small number of people that know what you did.
我从来没有因为写不知名的文章而感到沮丧。我总是觉得做这件事的满足感就在做这件事的过程中,真的,并得到一小部分知道你做什么的人的认可。
I just don't think there are any rules to color. You have a small space with no windows? Put lamps in there, make it dramatic, paint the ceiling black. Do something with it. If it's dark, accentuate the darkness.
我只是不认为有任何规则来着色。你有一个没有窗户的小空间?把灯放进去,让它看起来有戏剧性,把天花板涂成黑色。做点什么吧。如果是黑暗的,强调黑暗。
Suddenly, at about ten o'clock, a dull thud sounded somewhere far away from us, and simultaneously we saw a small white round cloud about half a mile ahead of us where the shrapnel had exploded. The battle had begun.
突然,大约在十点钟左右,远处传来一声沉闷的撞击声,同时我们看见前面大约半英里的地方有一小片白色的圆云,那是弹片爆炸的地方。战斗开始了。
Once you get into your stride, the camera becomes like another person in the room. It's like being in a very small theatre where there is no getting away with anything because the audience is centimetres away from you.
一旦你进入状态,相机就会变成房间里的另一个人。这就像在一个很小的剧院里,因为观众离你只有几厘米远,所以什么也逃不掉。
His impact would have been of transient memory and comparatively small importance, had not that impact occurred at a time and in a way to make it supply particulars from which momentous generalizations can properly be projected.
如果这种影响不是发生在某一时期,并以某种方式使其提供了可以恰当地作出重大概括的具体情况,那么他的影响就会是短暂的记忆,而且相对不那么重要。
Again, we turn down most books that have been self-published unless they have a special track record. We have taken a small number on, however, and sold them to major publishers for a nice sum. But that is an exception to the rule.
再一次,我们拒绝大多数自助出版的书籍,除非它们有特殊的记录。然而,我们只接受了一小部分,并以不错的价格卖给了主要出版商。但这是一个例外。
It is here, my daughters, that love is to be found - not hidden away in corners but in the midst of occasions of sin. And believe me, although we may more often fail and commit small lapses, our gain will be incomparably the greater.
我的女儿们,爱就在这里——不是藏在角落里,而是藏在罪恶之中。相信我,虽然我们可能更经常地失败和犯下小错误,但我们的收获将是无与伦比的巨大。
I have a crazy amount of different jobs, so the way I manage that is to not do more than one at a time. It's like old computers that had small memory chips, they would do something called swapping, where they would fill the memory with one task, do it and get it out.
我有很多不同的工作,所以我的方法是一次只做一件事。就像旧电脑有小的内存芯片,他们会做一些叫做交换的事情,他们会用一个任务来填满内存,然后把它取出来。
Small miseries, like small debts, hit us in so many places, and meet us at so many turns and corners, that what they want in weight, they make up in number, and render it less hazardous to stand the fire of one cannon ball, than a volley composed of such a shower of bullets.
小痛苦,像小债务,我们在很多地方,并满足我们很多转身角落,重量,他们想要的东西,他们的数量,并使它更少的有害站一个炮弹的火,凌空组成的这样一个淋浴的子弹。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Small natures require despotism to exercise their sinews, as great souls thirst for equality to give play to their heart.
渺小的人需要专制来锻炼他们的肌肉,正如伟大的灵魂渴望平等来发挥他们的心灵。
Small children give you headache; big children heartache.
小孩子让你头疼;大孩子心痛。
Slight small injuries, and they will become none at all.
轻微的小伤,他们将成为没有任何。
Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.
成功是一些小努力的总和,日复一日的重复。
Kosovo is a small country but it also has a lot of riches that were granted to us by God.

Everybody wants you to do good things, but in a small town you pretty much graduate and get married. Mostly you marry, have children and go to their football games.
每个人都想让你做好事,但在一个小镇上,你几乎毕业并结婚。大多数情况下,你结婚,生子,去看他们的足球比赛。
