A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
说话
Talk
I'd like to talk about free markets. Information in the computer age is the last genuine free market left on earth except those free markets where indigenous people are still surviving. And that's basically becoming limited.
我想谈谈自由市场。计算机时代的信息是地球上仅存的最后一个真正的自由市场,除了那些土著人还在生存的自由市场。这基本上是有限的。
I'm trying to build a strong business. I want to create new stars, new shows and new products for my audience and create a legacy that outlives me. There are so many other ways I want to reach women besides doing a talk show.
我想建立一个强大的企业。我想为我的观众创造新的明星、新的节目和新的产品,创造比我更有生命力的遗产。除了做脱口秀,我还想通过很多其他方式接触女性。
And I have always told the patients when I talk to them. When they come around and say, "What will you have to drink? Oh that's right you don't drink." Just speak up and say, 'Of course I drink. But I just don't drink alcohol.'
当我和病人交谈时,我总是告诉他们。当他们过来问:“你想喝点什么?”哦,对了,你不喝酒。”只要大声说,‘我当然喝酒。但我就是不喝酒。”
Lincoln had no such person that he could talk with. Often, as a result, he debated with himself, and he would draw up a kind of list of the pros and cons of an argument, and carefully figure them out, and he might test them in public.
林肯没有这样的人可以和他交谈。因此,他经常和自己辩论,他会列出一份清单,列出论点的利弊,然后仔细地找出它们,他可能会在公共场合测试它们。
It is easy to talk about tax simplification, and we all know it is very difficult to accomplish; but for the last three Congresses, I have offered a tax simplification bill that would include a paid-for repeal of alternative minimum tax.
谈论税收简化很容易,我们都知道这是很难做到的;但在过去的三届国会中,我提出了一项简化税收的法案,其中将包括废除替代最低税。
Somewhere in talking and rehearsing, there is a magical moment where actors catch a current, they're on the right road. If they really catch it, then whatever they do from then on is correct and it all comes out of them from that point on.
在谈话和排练中,有一个神奇的时刻,演员们抓住了潮流,他们走对了路。如果他们真的抓住了它,那么从那时起他们所做的一切都是正确的,从那一刻起,一切都源于他们。
I get an idea about something. I just start thinking about it, and then I get onstage and I talk about it, and then I think about it some more and talk about it some more, and think about it some more and talk about it some more, until it starts to take a shape.
我有个主意。我只是开始思考这个问题,然后我走上舞台,开始谈论这个问题,然后我再思考这个问题,再谈论这个问题,再思考这个问题,再谈论这个问题,直到它开始成形。
I talk to a lot of librarians, and there's always a steady drumbeat of how libraries are places of community. But a lot of them have also recently - and just in the nick of time - refurbished, because during this economic downturn, people have a tendency to borrow instead of buy.
我和很多图书管理员交谈过,他们总是不断地强调图书馆是一个社区。但最近,许多新兴市场也刚刚翻新,因为在这次经济衰退期间,人们倾向于借钱而不是买房。
If I had to control what I was speaking, it would be a chore. Right now I just feel I've got my shoes off, everybody comes in, I talk. If I was an actor it could be a problem, but right now I just talk all the crap, I can badmouth anybody I want, I can say what I want and move on.
如果我必须控制自己说话的内容,那将是一件苦差事。现在我觉得自己脱了鞋,每个人都进来,我说话。如果我是一个演员,这可能是个问题,但现在我只是在说废话,我可以随便说任何人的坏话,我想说什么就说什么,然后继续前进。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
I would love for the time to come where somebody can talk about me and not have to talk about Britney and Christina in the same sentence.
我希望有时间来这里,有人可以谈论我,而不用在同一个句子里谈论布兰妮和克里斯蒂娜。
I'm at peace with myself because what I talk about is the way I live.
我对自己很平静,因为我谈论的是我的生活方式。
I think the darker aspect of my fiction-or anybody's fiction-is by its very nature somehow easier to talk about.
我认为我的小说——或者任何人的小说——的阴暗面,从本质上来说,更容易谈论。
Talk about yourself as much as you like, but do not expect others to listen.
想说多少就说多少,但不要指望别人会听。
I can tell jokes. I can talk to the audience. I can relax. I can change my songs whenever I want. I can change the tempos. I can change the mood, because I'm in charge.
我会讲笑话。我可以和观众交谈。我可以放松。我可以随时更换我的歌曲。我可以改变节奏。我可以改变心情,因为我是负责人。
We talked to the referees before the game; there's always new situations to adjust, for the refs and for us as well. Even on the ice, it's good for players to talk and interact with the referee.
比赛前我们和裁判谈过;总有新的情况需要调整,对裁判和我们都是如此。即使在冰上,球员与裁判交谈和互动也是有好处的。
