A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
奇怪
Strange
The question is how to bring a work of imagination out of one language that was just as taken-for-granted by the persons who used it as our language is by ourselves. Nothing strange about it.
问题是如何把想象力的作品从一种语言中带出来，这种语言被使用它的人视为理所当然，就像我们自己的语言一样。这没什么奇怪的。
I will not leave a corner of my consciousness covered up, but saturate myself with the strange and extraordinary new conditions of this life, and it will all refine itself into poetry later on.
我不会把我意识的一个角落掩盖起来，而是让自己沉浸在这种奇特而不寻常的新生活状态中，这一切都将在以后提炼成诗歌。
I had everything I'd hoped for, but I wasn't being myself. So I decided to be honest about who I was. It was strange: The people who loved me for being funny suddenly didn't like me for being... me.
我得到了我所希望的一切，但我不再是我自己。所以我决定坦白我是谁。奇怪的是:那些爱我搞笑的人突然不喜欢我搞笑了……我。
We all dream; we do not understand our dreams, yet we act as if nothing strange goes on in our sleep minds, strange at least by comparison with the logical, purposeful doings of our minds when we are awake.
我们所有的梦想;我们不理解自己的梦，但我们的行为就好像我们的睡眠中没有发生什么奇怪的事情，至少与我们清醒时头脑中合乎逻辑的、有目的的行为相比是奇怪的。
As soon as I got out there I felt a strange relationship with the pitcher's mound. It was as if I'd been born out there. Pitching just felt like the most natural thing in the world. Striking out batters was easy.
我一出来就觉得和投手丘有一种奇怪的关系。就好像我出生在那里一样。投球感觉是世界上最自然的事情。三振打者很容易。
Everybody hangs out with everybody, which is very strange for a cast this large and this young. We're all cool and down to earth and not caught up in this maniacal business at all... . Everybody really, really likes everybody else.
每个人都和每个人在一起，对于这么大的演员阵容和这么年轻的演员来说，这很奇怪。我们都很冷静，脚踏实地，一点也不卷入这种疯狂的事情…每个人都非常非常喜欢其他人。
Whence it is somewhat strange that any men from so mean and silly a practice should expect commendation, or that any should afford regard thereto; the which it is so far from meriting, that indeed contempt and abhorrence are due to it.
因此，有些奇怪的是，任何一个出身于如此卑贱和愚蠢的行当的人，居然会受到称赞，或受到尊敬;这根本不值得，因此，人们对它的确应该感到轻蔑和厌恶。
A Stranger here Strange things doth meet, strange glories see; Strange Treasures lodg’d in this fair world appear, Strange all, and New to me, But that they mine should be, who nothing was, That Strangest is of all, yet brought to pass.
陌生的人在这里遇见陌生的事，看到陌生的荣耀;在这美丽的世界里，奇异的珍宝出现了，一切都是陌生的，对我来说是新鲜的，但它们却是我的，它们本来什么都不是，而现在却变成了最奇异的东西。
I think he was explicit that it was a slave labor situation, but I was not alarmed at that point, because there were so many tragedies involved in that war. That was the first time I had any indication that something was sort of strange.
我认为他很清楚这是一个奴隶劳工的状况，但当时我并不惊慌，因为那场战争中有太多的悲剧。那是我第一次感觉到有什么奇怪的东西。
I like the bad-boy types. Generally the guy I'm attracted to is the guy in the club with all the tattoos and nail polish. He's usually the lead singer in a punk band and plays guitar. But my serious boyfriends are relatively clean-cut, nice guys. So it's strange.
我喜欢坏男孩类型。一般来说，吸引我的是俱乐部里那个满身纹身、涂着指甲油的家伙。他通常是朋克乐队的主唱，还弹吉他。但我认真的男朋友都是相对干净的好人。这是奇怪的。
It's strange that we create tech and then we apply it to machines, when we could apply it to ourselves. Cars can now detect if something is behind them, but we don't have this ability. Why are we applying such a simple sense to a car when we could apply it to ourselves?
奇怪的是，我们创造了技术，然后把它应用到机器上，而我们可以把它应用到我们自己身上。汽车现在可以探测到背后是否有东西，但我们没有这种能力。为什么我们要把这样一个简单的概念应用到汽车上，而我们可以把它应用到我们自己身上呢?
There is something about music that keeps its distance even at the moment that it engulfs us. It is at the same time outside and away from us and inside and part of us. In one sense it dwarfs us, and in another we master it. We are led on and on, and yet in some strange way we never lose control.
音乐有些东西，即使在它吞噬我们的那一刻，也能保持距离。它同时存在于我们的外部和外部，以及我们的内部和一部分。在某种意义上，它使我们相形见绌，但在另一方面，我们掌握了它。我们被牵着走啊走，但奇怪的是，我们从未失去控制。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers.
我从健谈的人身上学会了沉默，从偏执的人身上学会了宽容，从无情的人身上学会了善良;然而，奇怪的是，我对那些老师不领情。
I've always been sort of interested in the rural countryside. Things happen out there that are very strange to city dwellers.
我一直对农村很感兴趣。外面发生的事情对城市居民来说很奇怪。

这很奇怪，但却是事实;因为真理总是陌生的;比小说还离奇。

Relationships between writers and publishers are of course very strange and change all the time, rather like a see-saw.
