A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
开始
Start
For any of us in this room today, let's start out by admitting we're lucky. We don't live in the world our mothers lived in, our grandmothers lived in, where career choices for women were so limited.
今天在座的各位,让我们首先承认我们是幸运的。我们并不是生活在我们母亲和祖母所生活的世界里,在那个世界里,女性的职业选择非常有限。
In art or architecture your project is only done when you say it's done. If you want to rip it apart at the eleventh hour and start all over again, you never finish. I was one of those crazy creatures.
在艺术或建筑中,只有当你说“完成了”时,你的项目才算完成。如果你想在最后一刻把它撕成碎片,然后从头再来,你永远也完成不了。我就是那种疯狂的生物。
While traveling, I love granola bars, trail mix nuts, dry cereal and fruit for on-the-go snacks. I also try and start the day with a high fiber and protein meal, such as whole-grain toast with peanut butter.
旅行时,我喜欢格兰诺拉燕麦卷、什锦坚果、干麦片和水果作为随身零食。我也试着以高纤维和高蛋白的食物开始一天的生活,比如全麦吐司配花生酱。
I start off my morning with an Acai berry smoothie. I blend the Acai berries with kefir, blueberries, protein powder and peanut butter. I like this first thing in the morning because it's light on my stomach.
我以巴西莓奶昔开始我的早晨。我把巴西莓和开菲尔、蓝莓、蛋白粉和花生酱混合在一起。我喜欢早上的第一件事,因为它对我的胃来说很轻。
We need to start looking at having a way of managing the whole ecosystem, because you can't pick away at it piece by piece, you have to truly start being coordinated and managing our resources as a system. We haven't gotten to that point yet.
我们需要开始寻找一种管理整个生态系统的方法,因为你不能一件一件地去做,你必须真正开始协调和管理我们作为一个系统的资源。我们还没有讲到那一点。
Once you start to provide public services that have to be run under public rules, for example child protection, then it has to go with public law. Institutions have to make a decision whether they want to do that or they don't want to do that.
一旦你开始提供必须在公共规则下运行的公共服务,例如儿童保护,那么它就必须与公法相配合。机构必须做出决定他们是想做还是不想做。
Some go on to trade schools or get further training for jobs they are interested in. Some go into the arts, some are craftsmen, some take a little time out to travel, and some start their own businesses. But our graduates find and work at what they want to do.
有些人会去贸易学校,或者为他们感兴趣的工作接受进一步的培训。有些人从事艺术,有些人是工匠,有些人花点时间出去旅游,还有一些人开始了自己的事业。但是我们的毕业生找到了他们想做的事情,并为之努力。
I get an idea about something. I just start thinking about it, and then I get onstage and I talk about it, and then I think about it some more and talk about it some more, and think about it some more and talk about it some more, until it starts to take a shape.
我有个主意。我只是开始思考这个问题,然后我走上舞台,开始谈论这个问题,然后我再思考这个问题,再谈论这个问题,再思考这个问题,再谈论这个问题,直到它开始成形。
Then I came up with this crazy idea just to walk out on the stage with no band at all and just start singing whatever came to mind. I actually fought the idea for a while because it seemed almost too radical, but it became obvious what I was supposed to be doing.
然后我想到了一个疯狂的主意,就是在没有乐队伴奏的情况下走上台,开始唱任何我想到的歌。实际上,我有一段时间反对这个想法,因为它似乎太激进了,但我应该做的事情变得很明显。
I think about the characters I've created and then I sit down and start typing and see what they will do. There's a lot of subconscious thought that goes on. It amazes me to find out, a few chapters later, why I put someone in a certain place when I did. It's spooky.
我想了想我创造的角色,然后坐下来开始打字,看看他们会怎么做。有很多潜意识的想法。几章之后,我惊奇地发现,为什么我把一个人放在一个特定的位置。这是令人毛骨悚然的。
The thing that strikes you most about being a soldier in a war zone and in action to the small extent that I was, when actually people start shooting, which happened to me a couple of times, everything goes on automatic and there's a feeling of tremendous elevation and even elation.
罢工的事情你最是一个士兵在战场和行动在小程度上我,当人们开始射击,这发生在我几次,一切都在自动和有一个巨大的海拔,甚至得意的感觉。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Old age is like everything else. To make a success of it, you've got to start young.
老年和其他一切一样。要想成功,你必须从年轻开始。
In a start-up company, you basically throw out all assumptions every three weeks.
在一个刚起步的公司里,你基本上每三周就会抛出所有的假设。
To some it may be a thrill to be known, to me it's a thrill to start a friendship even up.
对一些人来说,被人认识是一件令人兴奋的事,对我来说,甚至是开始一段友谊也是一件令人兴奋的事。
As long as youre green, you're growing. As soon as you're ripe, you start to rot.
只要你是绿色的,你就在成长。你一成熟就开始腐烂。
If you do enough planning before you start to write, there's no way you can have writer's block. I do a complete chapter by chapter outline.
如果你在开始写作之前做了足够的计划,你就不可能有写作障碍。我一章一章地做一个完整的提纲。
You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.
你不必一开始就很棒,但你必须开始变得很棒。
