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。
I wish the Peace Corps and its volunteers continued success and perseverance. We are grateful for their contributions to society and dedication to providing assistance where it is needed. May the Peace Corps continue its legacy of service, both at home and abroad.
我祝愿和平队及其志愿人员继续取得成功和坚持不懈。我们感谢他们对社会的贡献和在需要时提供援助的奉献精神。愿和平队继续其在国内外的服务传统。
It is true that the aristocracies seem to have abused their monopoly of legal knowledge; and at all events their exclusive possession of the law was a formidable impediment to the success of those popular movements which began to be universal in the western world.
诚然,贵族们似乎滥用了他们对法律知识的垄断;无论如何,他们对法律的独占是那些开始在西方世界普遍存在的人民运动取得成功的巨大障碍。
We are taught to consume. And that's what we do. But if we realized that there really is no reason to consume, that it's just a mind set, that it's just an addiction, then we wouldn't be out there stepping on people's hands climbing the corporate ladder of success.
我们被教导要消费。这就是我们所做的。但如果我们意识到确实没有理由消费,这只是一种心态,这只是一种上瘾,那么我们就不会踩着别人的手爬上企业成功的阶梯。
You can play a particular sport as long as you take good care of your body and you're confident enough and still have that hunger to where you want to be a part of an organization, a group of individuals where you feel you can contribute to the success of that team.
你可以扮演一个特定的运动,只要你照顾好你的身体,你有足够的信心,还有饥饿,你想成为一个组织的一部分,一群人,你觉得你可以为这个团队的成功做出贡献。
I feel lucky because I was a nerd, which I talk about in the book, but I had academic success, so through that, because that's what my parents put a great deal of value on, I had a great childhood because I sort of fulfilled the expectations of being good at school.
我感到幸运,因为我是一个书呆子,我谈论的书,但我有学术成就,通过,因为那是我的父母把大量的价值,我度过了一段美好的童年,因为我完成了预期的在学校的好。
Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.
行动能极大地恢复和建立信心。无所作为不仅是恐惧的结果,而且是恐惧的原因。也许你所采取的行动会成功;或许接下来必须采取不同的行动或做出调整。但是任何行动都比什么都不做要好。
We will have bigger bureaucracies, bigger labor unions, and bigger state-run corporations. It will be harder to be an entrepreneur because of punitive taxes and regulations. The rewards of success will be expropriated for the sake of attaining greater income equality.

My own field of paleontology has strongly challenged the Darwinian premise that life's major transformations can be explained by adding up, through the immensity of geological time, the successive tiny changes produced generation after generation by natural selection.

It's kind of a tradition that you get a rookie, put him in the middle, wrap your arms and legs around him, then douse him with everything you can get a hold of - shaving cream, ketchup, mustard, everything. It's kind of like a pie in the face after a guy is successful.
这是一种传统,你找一个新手,把他放在中间,用胳膊和腿抱住他,然后把你能弄到的所有东西都浇在他身上——刮胡膏,番茄酱,芥末,所有的东西。这有点像一个人成功后脸上的馅饼。
I don't think that was too successful. Because I always thought that the two of them should have been more separate. Also I had planned the monorail station to be in the center. So that one day you would have go to World Showcase and then the other day to Future World.
我不认为这太成功了。因为我一直认为他们两个应该分开。我还计划把单轨车站建在市中心。所以有一天你要去世界展示会,另一天你要去未来世界。
I was aware that there is an expectation that writers inevitably falter at this stage, that they fail to live up to the promise of their first successful book, that the next book never pleases the way the prior one did. It simply increased my sense of being challenged.
我意识到有一种期待,作家们在这个阶段不可避免地会踌躇不前,他们无法实现自己第一本书成功的承诺,下一本书永远不会像前一本书那样让人满意。它只是增加了我被挑战的感觉。
