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。

What can we learn from the battle between data and design? What can we learn from the relationship between Google and Apple? Clearly no one school of thought is right: Apple and Google are both wildly successful and profitable companies that changed the world.

我们能从数据和设计之间的斗争中学到什么?我们可以从谷歌和苹果的关系中学到什么?显然,没有哪个学派的观点是正确的:苹果和谷歌都是非常成功且盈利丰厚的公司,它们改变了世界。

When I was a little boy in short pants, I dreamed about a miraculous ointment that would make me invisible. Then I became an adult, began to write, and wanted to be successful. Now I'm successful and would like to have the ointment that would make me invisible.

当我还是个穿短裤的小男孩时,我梦想着一种神奇的药膏,能让我隐形。然后我长大了,开始写作,想要成功。现在我成功了,我想要一种能让我隐形的药膏。

It's not a field, I think, for people who need to have success every day: if you can't live with a nightly sort of disaster, you should get out. I wouldn't describe myself as lacking in confidence, but I would just say that the ghosts you chase you never catch.

我认为,对于那些每天都需要成功的人来说,这不是一个领域:如果你不能忍受每晚的灾难,你就应该离开。我不认为自己缺乏自信,但我想说的是,你追的鬼你永远抓不住。

I was endorsed by many corporations to work with their people. Since I had several hundred successful case histories, I realized that it was really valuable and everybody should have access to the information, so I started teaching seminars to groups of people.

我得到许多公司的支持,与他们的员工一起工作。因为我有几百个成功的案例,我意识到它真的很有价值,每个人都应该有机会获得这些信息,所以我开始给一群人讲授研讨会。

By giving the public a rich and full melody, distinctly arranged and well played, all the time creating new tone colors and patterns, I feel we have a better chance of being successful. I want a kick to my band, but I don't want the rhythm to hog the spotlight.

通过给公众一个丰富和完整的旋律,明确的安排和良好的发挥,一直创造新的色调和模式,我觉得我们有更好的机会成功。我想给我的乐队一脚踢,但我不想让节奏占据聚光灯。

My wife Elizabeth and I started The Really Terrible Orchestra for people like us who are pretty hopeless musicians who would like to play in an orchestra. It has been a great success. We give performances; we've become the most famous bad orchestra in the world.

我和我的妻子伊丽莎白为像我们这样的人组建了一个非常糟糕的管弦乐队,我们这些人都是非常绝望的音乐家,想在管弦乐队演奏。这是一个巨大的成功。我们表演节目;我们已经成为世界上最著名的坏乐团。

It's very easy for me to say what success is. I think success is connecting with an audience who understands you and having a dialogue with them. I think success is continuing to push yourself forward creatively and not sort of becoming a caricature of yourself.

我很容易就能说出什么是成功。我认为成功是与理解你的观众建立联系,并与他们进行对话。我认为成功是不断地推动你创造性地前进,而不是成为你自己的讽刺。

All the work that I do, whether or not it ends up being commercially successful or not, feels like the most important thing to me while I'm doing it. I try to take something away from every project, and so they all feel like milestones for one reason or another.

我所做的所有工作,不管最终能否取得商业上的成功,对我来说都是最重要的。我试着从每个项目中拿走一些东西,所以出于这样或那样的原因,它们都感觉像是里程碑。

A successful society is characterized by a rising living standard for its population, increasing investment in factories and basic infrastructure, and the generation of additional surplus, which is invested in generating new discoveries in science and technology.

一个成功的社会的特征是其人民生活水平的提高,对工厂和基本基础设施的投资增加,以及产生额外的盈余,这些盈余被投资于产生科学和技术方面的新发现。

I think that lawyers are terrible at admitting that they're wrong. And not just admitting it; also realizing it. Most lawyers are very successful, and they think that because they're making money and people think well of them, they must be doing everything right.

我认为律师不善于承认自己的错误。不仅仅是承认;也意识到这一点。大多数律师都非常成功,他们认为,因为他们在赚钱,人们对他们评价很高,所以他们必须把每件事都做对。

If I wasn't even famous or had any success, I would still wake up and put tons of make-up on, and put on a cool outfit. That's always been who I've been my whole life, so that's never gonna change. I love fashion. I love getting dressed up. I love Halloween, too.

即使我不出名或没有任何成功,我仍然会醒来,化上浓妆,穿上一件很酷的衣服。我一直都是这样,所以这永远不会改变。我爱时尚。我喜欢打扮。我也喜欢万圣节。

There is no such thing as a "self-made" man. We are made up of thousands of others. Everyone who has ever done a kind deed for us, or spoken one word of encouragement to us, has entered into the make-up of our character and of our thoughts, as well as our success.

没有所谓的“白手起家”的人。我们是由成千上万的人组成的。每一个曾经为我们做过一件好事,或对我们说过一句鼓励的话的人,都已经成为我们性格、思想以及成功的组成部分。
