A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
表面
Surface
Just under the surface I shall be, all together at first, then separate and drift, through all the earth and perhaps in the end through a cliff into the sea, something of me. A ton of worms in an acre, that is a wonderful thought, a ton of worms, I believe it.
就在水面下,我将会,一开始都在一起,然后分离和漂流,穿过整个地球,也许最后穿过悬崖进入大海,成为我的一部分。一亩地里有一吨虫子,这是个好主意,一吨虫子,我相信。
We are told that the trouble with modern man is that he has been trying to detach himself from nature... In this scenario, Man comes on as a stupendous lethal force, and the Earth is pictured as something delicate, like rising bubbles at the surface of a country pond, or flights of fragile birds.
我们被告知现代人的问题在于他一直试图使自己脱离自然。在这种情况下,人类作为一种巨大的致命力量出现,而地球被描绘成一种微妙的东西,就像一个乡村池塘表面升起的气泡,或者脆弱的鸟类的飞翔。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Whales only get harpooned when they come to the surface, and turtles can only move forward when they stick their neck out, but investors face risk no matter what they do.
鲸鱼只有在浮出水面时才会被鱼叉叉住,海龟只有在伸出脖子时才会向前移动,但投资者无论如何都要面临风险。
It's also ironic that in the old days of tape and tape hiss and vinyl records and surface noise, we were always trying to get records louder and louder to overcome that.
同样具有讽刺意味的是,在过去磁带和磁带嘶嘶声,黑胶唱片和表面噪音的日子里,我们总是试图让唱片声音越来越大来克服这一点。

地球表面的三分之二被水覆盖。另外三分之一由总部的审计员负责。
A deeper thought on the surface is exactly the paradox we need.
从表面上看,更深层次的思考正是我们所需要的悖论。
If people choose to engage on a one-dimensional level that's fine. But going beyond the surface can enrich ourselves as human beings.
如果人们选择在一个一维的层面上参与,那很好。但是,超越表面可以丰富我们作为人类自己。
