A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

成功

Success

成功的讨论不只有结果,也包括学习、实践、挫折和判断。把这些表达放回自己的处境中阅读,比把一句话当作万能答案更有帮助。

The seeded draw came into being. This means that the two best players of the tournament are placed in opposite halves in the draw, and cannot possibly meet until the finals, if they come through successfully against all the rest of the participants.

种子抽签产生了。这意味着比赛中表现最好的两名球员被安排在抽签的两个半场,如果他们成功地战胜了所有其他参赛者,那么他们可能要到决赛时才能碰面。

Creative risk taking is essential to success in any goal where the stakes are high. Thoughtless risks are destructive, of course, but perhaps even more wasteful is thoughtless caution which prompts inaction and promotes failure to seize opportunity.

在任何高风险的目标中,创造性的冒险是成功的关键。当然,轻率的风险是具有破坏性的,但可能更浪费的是轻率的谨慎,它促使不作为,并促使未能抓住机会。

I wish to say to you that the life of an enlightened people and a vibrant nation cannot be measured by the life of an individual. A successful person is one who manages to lay down a new stone, a brick that would help firm up his nation's existence.

我想对你们说,一个开明的人民和一个充满活力的国家的生活不能用一个人的生活来衡量。一个成功的人是设法打下一块新石头,一块有助于巩固他的国家存在的砖。

In the restaurant business, you never want to have enemies, whereas it seems that many politicians judge their success by how high their enemies are and whether they can show that they can hold their ground and give a punch for every punch they take.

在餐饮业,你永远不会想要有敌人,然而,似乎许多政客通过他们的敌人有多高,以及他们是否能显示出他们能够坚守阵地,并对他们的每一拳都予以还击来判断他们的成功。

Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success, inasmuch as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some.

不要因失败而气馁。这可能是一个积极的经历。从某种意义上说,失败是通往成功的道路,因为每一次对错误的发现都会引导我们认真地追寻真理,而每一次新鲜的经历都会指出一些错误。

My wife - to-be and I went to see my father. Only he could answer the two questions before us: Shall we get married now? Shall I begin the practice of law, or continue being the successful wine salesman I had become, working my way through law school?

我和我未来的妻子去看我的父亲。只有他能回答我们面前的两个问题:我们现在结婚吗?我是应该开始从事法律工作,还是继续做一名成功的葡萄酒推销员,努力读完法学院?

Have regular hours for work and play; make each day both useful and pleasant, and prove that you understand the worth of time by employing it well. Then youth will be delightful, old age will bring few regrets, and life will become a beautiful success.

有规律的工作和娱乐时间;让每一天都变得有用和愉快,并通过充分利用时间来证明你明白时间的价值。然后,青春将是愉快的,老年将带来很少的遗憾,生活将成为一个美丽的成功。
