Things have always sort of happened for me. Something else always comes up.
事情总是发生在我身上。总会有别的事情发生。
Ballet is sort of a mystery to me. And I don't want to unravel that mystery.
芭蕾对我来说是一个谜。我不想解开这个谜团。
It's luck that one thing works out and one doesn't, it's sort of happenstance.

KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I am tired of all this sort of thing called science here... We have spent millions in that sort of thing for the last few years, and it is time it should be stopped.
我厌倦了这里所谓的科学……在过去的几年里，我们在这类事情上花费了数百万美元，现在是时候停止了。
I'm not a big fan of the thought that you can become a star by winning a contest. I'm sort of old-fashioned. I think people need to get out there and they need to work and they need to do their music because they love it. If they become successful, then great, and if they are not, whatever.
我不太赞成通过赢得比赛就能成为明星的想法。我有点过时了。我认为人们需要走出去，他们需要工作，他们需要做他们的音乐，因为他们爱它。如果他们成功了，那么他们就是伟大的，如果他们失败了，无论如何。
The problem with a purely collective system is not only that it requires economic growth, and the right sort of demographic trends, but that it prevents people thinking about their futures in a responsible way.
一个纯粹的集体体系的问题不仅在于它需要经济增长和正确的人口趋势，还在于它阻止人们以负责任的方式思考自己的未来。
I used to get a sort of sociophobia, and I still get it sometimes these days when I'm in a confined space with too many people. It's not like I freak out or anything, it's just that I'm far more comfortable in my own company sometimes than being surrounded by one thousand strangers.
我曾经有过一种社会恐惧症，现在当我和太多的人呆在一个狭小的空间里时，我仍然会有这种恐惧症。这并不是说我害怕或其他什么，只是有时候我在自己的公司里比被一千个陌生人包围要舒服得多。
I'm a layperson. I barely got out of high school. I have no business telling people what to do or my big philosophy on life. I'm certainly not going to write any sort of memoir.
我是一个外行。我高中刚毕业。我无权告诉人们该做什么，也无权告诉人们我的人生哲学。我当然不会写任何回忆录。
Suddenly you're surrounded by strangers who want something from you. The thing is, they don't know what they want, and you don't know what they want, unless it's an autograph, and you just sort of stand there grinning at one another.
突然你被陌生人包围了，他们想从你身上得到什么。问题是，他们不知道他们想要什么，你也不知道他们想要什么，除非是一个签名，而你只是站在那里对着对方笑。
