A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

思考

Think

I think all kids think their parents are strict. My parents aren't superstrict, but they seem to be stricter than most. But even though it's like, 'Oh, gosh, I've gotta be in at this time,' they know what they're doing. I have great parents.

我想所有的孩子都认为他们的父母很严格。我的父母不是很严格,但他们似乎比大多数人都严格。但即使他们会说,‘哦,天哪,我这个时候得去上班’,他们也知道自己在做什么。我有很棒的父母。

I can fairly be called an amateur because I do what I do, in the original sense of the word - for love, because I love it. On the other hand, I think that those of us who make our living writing history can also be called true professionals.

我可以被公平地称为业余爱好者,因为我做我所做的,在最初的意义上的词-爱,因为我爱它。另一方面,我认为我们这些以写历史为生的人也可以被称为真正的专业人士。

I look out of this window and I think this is a cosmos, this is a huge creation, this is one small corner of it. The trees and birds and everything else and I'm part of it. I didn't ask to be put here, I've been lucky in finding myself here.

我看着窗外,我想这是一个宇宙,这是一个巨大的创造,这是它的一个小角落。树、鸟和其他一切,我都是其中的一部分。我没有要求被放在这里,我很幸运地发现自己在这里。

But I think the one thing that I can say about us is that we're very consistent about certain things and part of that is our desire to do the very best work that we can and not rest on our laurels, or not allow formula to come into what we do.

但是我认为我能说关于我们的一件事是,我们对某些事情非常一致,这是我们的一部分希望做最好的工作,我们可以在我们的荣誉而不是休息,或不允许公式来为我们所做的。

I used to think no one should go into show biz, but now I feel differently. I now feel like it's a great career. If you can do it and make money at it and still not be so famous that you can have a normal life - then I think it's a great career.

我曾经认为没有人应该进入演艺圈,但现在我有了不同的想法。我现在觉得这是一个伟大的事业。如果你能做到这一点,赚到钱,但又不那么出名,不能过上正常的生活,那么我认为这是一个伟大的职业。

I think everybody has to be better, right from me out. Everybody has to step up their games for us to be successful here. I've been lucky to be on some good teams over the years and that's what it takes, everybody contributing night after night.

我认为每个人都必须变得更好,从我开始。为了我们在这里取得成功,每个人都必须提高自己的水平。多年来,我很幸运地加入了一些优秀的球队,这就是我所需要的,每个人都在夜以继日地贡献自己的力量。

KEEP EXPLORING

沿着这个主题,再读几句。

So people think I'm lying about my age all the time? It's the records that are wrong. I've never told anyone how old I am. The minute they ask me, I say 'That's none of your business.' So that means I've never once lied about my age. Now that's true!

所以人们认为我一直在谎报年龄?是记录错了。我从来没有告诉过任何人我有多大。他们一问我,我就说:‘这不关你的事。所以这意味着我从来没有谎报过自己的年龄。现在这是真的!

I think for new artists the hardest thing is putting the face with a name. People maybe heard our song on the radio or something but until they get several impressions of who you are - from whatever it is, whether TV or a live show, I feel like they don't quite connect the dots.

我认为对于新艺术家来说,最难的事情就是给脸起个名字。人们可能在收音机或其他什么地方听到过我们的歌,但直到他们对你有了一些印象——不管是电视还是现场表演,我感觉他们并没有把这些点联系起来。

A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT

给此刻的你,一点向前的力量。
