A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
电视
Television
You have to wait for people to program you. The only difference is the amount of people that you're going to reach but that's going to even out in the next two or three years anyway. Computers are being bought faster than televisions right now.
你必须等待别人为你编写程序。唯一的不同是你能接触到的人的数量,但无论如何,在接下来的两三年内,你能接触到的人的数量将会持平。现在买电脑比买电视还快。
I don't know why men are so fascinated with television and I think it has something to do with - if I may judge from my own father, who used to sit and stare at the TV while my mother was speaking to him - I think that's a man's way of tuning out.
我不知道男人为什么是如此着迷于电视,我认为这与——如果我可以从我自己的父亲,曾经坐在那里盯着电视,我的妈妈对他说——我认为这是一个男人的方式调优。
We don't see the people who are doing real things getting enough props. We often see politicians who are everywhere but nowhere at the same goddamn time. You know the kind of person: You see them everywhere on television but nowhere in front of your face.
我们没有看到真正做事情的人得到足够的支持。我们经常看到政客们在同一时间无处不在。你认识这样的人:你在电视上到处都能看到他们,但却看不到他们出现在你面前。
You know, there are not only - all of the networks, and I mean every television news operation and print and radio and magazines, newspapers, all of them, are remiss in the diversity area. I mean, none of these organizations have reached a level of parity.
你知道,不仅仅是所有的网络,我的意思是每一个电视新闻运作,印刷,广播,杂志,报纸,所有的这些,在多样性领域都是疏忽的。我的意思是,这些组织都没有达到平等的水平。
But I think it's also hard to get into soccer here. I think purely on a time level on television as well because of the ad breaks. It's something to do with that as well. You can't show a complete soccer match here. Which I kind of find a bit of an odd thing.
但我认为在这里踢足球也很难。我认为纯粹是在电视上的时间水平,因为广告插播。这也与此有关。你不能在这里展示一场完整的足球比赛。我觉得这有点奇怪。
Television itself is an intimate medium. It's in your house. You're visiting with these people... Not everybody's going to like it, just like not everybody likes everybody on the playground. I mean, that's life - especially if your job is to just go out there and be yourself.
电视本身就是一种亲密的媒介。在你的房子里。你在拜访这些人…不是每个人都会喜欢它,就像不是每个人都喜欢操场上的每个人一样。我的意思是,这就是生活——尤其是如果你的工作就是走出去做你自己。
I think it's brought the world a lot closer together, and will continue to do that. There are downsides to everything; there are unintended consequences to everything. The most corrosive piece of technology that I've ever seen is called television - but then, again, television, at its best, is magnificent.
我认为它使世界更加紧密地团结在一起,并将继续这样做。凡事都有缺点;任何事情都有意想不到的后果。我所见过的最具腐蚀性的技术叫做电视——但是,再说一遍,电视,在它最好的时候,是壮丽的。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
It is truly a privilege to be able to support all women's causes on a global level. It is remarkable that something as simple as television can empower us to create change and awareness in the world.
能够在全球范围内支持所有妇女的事业,确实是一种特权。值得注意的是,像电视这样简单的东西可以让我们在世界上创造改变和意识。
There is no such thing as national advertising. All advertising is local and personal. It's one man or woman reading one newspaper in the kitchen or watching TV in the den.
没有全国性的广告。所有的广告都是本地的和个人的。这是一个男人或女人在厨房读报纸或在书房看电视。
I want to bring more gymnastics on television.
我想把更多的体操节目搬上电视。
Television won't be able to hold on to any market it captures after the first six months. People will soon get tired of staring at a plywood box every night.
在头六个月之后,电视将无法保住它所占领的任何市场。人们很快就会厌倦每晚盯着一个胶合板盒子看。
My role on television is one of helping people reexamine the assumptions that they hold. I regard Dr. King. You would never hear me get up and speak without in some way, shape or form, referencing, Dr. King.
我在电视上的角色是帮助人们重新审视他们所持有的假设。我尊敬金博士。你永远不会听到我站起来说话而没有以某种方式,某种形式,引用金博士的话。
I don't watch a lot of television. Sports and news, that's it.
我不怎么看电视。体育和新闻,就是这些。
