A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
理论
Theory
In baseball, my theory is to strive for consistency, not to worry about the numbers. If you dwell on statistics you get shortsighted, if you aim for consistency, the numbers will be there at the end.
在棒球运动中，我的理论是努力保持一致性，而不是担心数字。如果你沉迷于统计数据，你就会变得目光短浅，如果你的目标是一致性，那么最终的结果就会在那里。
Entropy theory is indeed a first attempt to deal with global form; but it has not been dealing with structure. All it says is that a large sum of elements may have properties not found in a smaller sample of them.
熵理论的确是第一次尝试处理全局形式;但它没有处理结构问题。它只是说，大量的元素可能具有在较小的样本中找不到的属性。
If we do discover a complete theory, it should be in time understandable in broad principle by everyone. Then we shall all, philosophers, scientists, and just ordinary people be able to take part in the discussion of why we and the universe exist.
如果我们确实发现了一个完整的理论，它应该在时间上被大家普遍理解。然后我们所有人，哲学家，科学家，和普通人都能参与到讨论为什么我们和宇宙存在。
The idea of stopping is not unmeaningful to me. I think there might be a time when, in theory at least, you'd say, 'Well I've mostly done what I want to do.' But how could you ever prevent a few years down the line some germ of an idea getting at you and you've got to do it again?
停止的想法对我来说并不是没有意义的。我认为，至少在理论上，你可能会说，‘嗯，我基本上已经做了我想做的事情。“但你怎么能阻止几年以后某个想法的萌芽在你身上生根发芽，而你又不得不重新来过呢?”
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
The whole theory of the universe is directed unerringly to one single individual.

An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory.
一盎司的行动抵得上一吨的理论。
Every great batter works on the theory that the pitcher is more afraid of him than he is of the pitcher.
每一个伟大的击球手都是基于这样一个理论:投手对他的恐惧要多于他对投手的恐惧。
Theoretical principals must sometimes give way for the sake of practical advantages.
理论原则有时必须为实际利益让路。
Even before I came to Chicago, I had gotten interested in the existence of dispersion of prices under conditions which economic theory said would yield a single price.
甚至在我来到芝加哥之前，我就对价格分散性的存在产生了兴趣，经济学理论认为，在这种情况下会产生单一的价格。
I have just got a new theory of eternity.
我刚刚有了一个关于永恒的新理论。
