A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
思考
Think
I think I'm a better actress for having friends and interests outside the theatre. I wouldn't want to live my life surrounded by other actors all the time.

When something really extreme happens, you have to find a way to embrace that and include it in how you think about the character. Sometimes it's not easy.

We allow our ignorance to prevail upon us and make us think we can survive alone, alone in patches, alone in groups, alone in races, even alone in genders.
我们让自己的无知占据上风,让自己认为我们可以独自生存,独自生活在小块土地上,独自生活在群体中,独自生活在种族中,甚至独自生活在性别中。
I think there's a lot of naivete and hubris within our mix of personalities. That's probably our worst crime. I keep wondering what a "mature" record means.

One of the things that I think is such a constant in country music is that the song is so much a story. I believe it is supposed to be based around a story.
我认为在乡村音乐中有一件事是永恒的那就是这首歌是如此的有故事。我相信它应该是基于一个故事。
I don't think I'm generous enough to be the straight guy. I sort of make my own way and make my own statement. Do I mind pushing myself forward? Not at all.
我觉得我不够慷慨,不能做一个正直的人。我有自己的方式,有自己的观点。我介意把自己往前推吗?不客气。

Once you start thinking about it in a mercenary frame of mind, then you're finished. You're a joke, because there are too many mercenaries out there already.

Einstein's results again turned the tables and now very few philosophers or scientists still think that scientific knowledge is, or can be, proven knowledge.

KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。

我认为,我们现代文化的一个可能定义是,我们十分之九的知识分子不会读诗。
You are educated. Your certification is in your degree. You may think of it as the ticket to the good life. Let me ask you to think of an alternative. Think of it as your ticket to change the world.

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。
