A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
思考
Think
I think of novels in architectural terms. You have to enter at the gate, and this gate must be constructed in such a way that the reader has immediate confidence in the strength of the building.
我从建筑学的角度来思考小说。你必须从这扇门进去,而且这扇门的构造必须让读者立即对建筑物的强度有信心。
This is love, I think. A place where people who have been alone may lock together like hawks and spin in the air, dizzy with surprise at the connection. A place you go willingly, and with wonder
我想这就是爱。在这里,独自一人的人可能会像老鹰一样紧紧锁在一起,在空中旋转,对这种联系感到头晕目眩。一个你心甘情愿,带着惊奇去的地方
And I think more than anything else, I know when I go to bed that no one's working harder doing what I'm doing, and I think, quite frankly, simply that hard work at some point was gonna pay off.
我认为最重要的是,当我上床睡觉的时候,我知道没有人比我更努力地工作,坦白地说,我认为,简单地说,努力工作会在某个时候得到回报。
I don't think you ever think that you have made it but I did take a look at myself one day and think back to when I was a little girl and it was nice to know that I had at least made it this far.
我不认为你曾经认为你已经做到了,但有一天我确实审视了自己,回想起我还是个小女孩的时候,我很高兴知道我至少做到了这一步。
The advantage does lie with us because we're at home and if we can't motivate ourselves for this match then we can't motivate ourselves for any match. I think the crowd will be up for it as well.
我们的优势在于主场,如果我们不能在这场比赛中激励自己,那么我们就不能在任何比赛中激励自己。我想观众也会支持的。
I have an office in my house and one about five minutes from my house. I worked solely out of my house for many years, but find, with children, that I have to be in a different ZIP code to think.
我在家里有一个办公室,离我家大约五分钟的路程。我独自在家工作了很多年,但我发现,和孩子们在一起,我不得不在一个不同的邮政编码里思考。
And then I went round the corner and there's a Van Gogh portrait, and you just think, well, this is another level. A higher level, actually. I love the Sargent, but it's not the level of Van Gogh.
然后我走到拐角处,看到梵高的一幅画像,你会想,这是另一个层次。实际上是更高的层次。我喜欢萨金特,但这不是梵高的水平。
Make every thought, every fact, that comes into your mind pay you a profit. Make it work and produce for you. Think of things not as they are but as they might be. Don't merely dream - but create!
让你想到的每一个想法,每一个事实,都能给你带来收益。让它为你工作和生产。不要想事情的本来面目,而要想事情可能的本来面目。不要只是梦想,而是创造!
I think we've broken story after story that the rest of the media refused to break even when they had the story because they were scared of the story, or they just didn't think it was appropriate.
我认为我们已经打破了一个又一个的故事,其他媒体在报道时拒绝打破平衡,因为他们害怕这个故事,或者他们认为这不合适。
I don't react to a tragic happening any more. I took so many bad things as a kid and some people think I don't care about anything. It's just too hard for me to get emotional. I can't cry no more.
我不再对悲剧发生做出反应。我小时候接受过很多不好的事情,有些人认为我什么都不在乎。对我来说太难以动情了。我不能再哭了。
I'll tell you one thing, in what I do for a living, there's no substitute for experience. I don't care how much natural talent you may have... In the type of show I do, you can depend on surprises.
我要告诉你一件事,在我的职业生涯中,经验是无可替代的。我不在乎你有多少天赋……在我所主持的节目中,你可以期待惊喜。
This horror of pain is a rather low instinct and... if I think of human beings I've known and of my own life, such as it is, I can't recall any case of pain which didn't, on the whole, enrich life.
这种对痛苦的恐惧是一种相当低级的本能,而且……如果我想到我所认识的人和我自己的生活,尽管如此,我想不起任何一个痛苦的例子,总的来说,没有丰富我的生活。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
You think you're looking at things all the time, but you're not looking at things, you're looking at what your brain is interpreting through light and color. And who knows what everybody else sees?
你以为你一直在看东西,但你不是在看东西,你是在看你的大脑通过光和颜色在解释什么。谁知道其他人看到了什么?
When things feel like they're not working out, focus on what's working right.
当事情感觉不顺利时,把注意力集中在正确的事情上。
I don't believe one grows older. I think that what happens early on in life is that at a certain age one stands still and stagnates.
我不相信人会变老。我认为,在人生的早期,人到了一定的年龄,就会停滞不前。
Don't believe everything you think.
不要相信你所想的一切。
Women like silent men. They think they're listening.
女人喜欢沉默的男人。他们认为自己在倾听。
They can because they think they can.
他们能,因为他们认为他们能。
