I've been to the Hall of Fame many times, in grade school and high school. I had field trips to the Hall of Fame and taking tours of it. I just never thought about that one day I possibly might be in it. I think it'd be great.
我去过名人堂很多次,在小学和高中。我到名人堂实地考察并参观了它。我只是从来没有想过有一天我可能会在里面。我想那一定很棒。
When I began I thought that literature was contained within a bubble that somehow floated above the world commented upon by newspapers. But I became more and more interested in trying to include some of that world within my work.
当我开始写作的时候,我认为文学被包含在一个泡沫中,这个泡沫以某种方式漂浮在报纸评论的世界之上。但我越来越有兴趣尝试在我的作品中融入一些这样的世界。
You know, the market was down yesterday... my first thought when I heard-just on a personal basis, when I heard there had been this attack and I saw the futures this morning, which were really in the tank, I thought, Time to buy.

My father knew the charming side of my mother, and my mother thought that he was attentive and pleasant and was an architect, which was a respectable profession, but I don't think that they actually got to know one another deeply.
我的父亲知道我母亲迷人的一面,我的母亲认为他是专注和愉快的,是一名建筑师,这是一个体面的职业,但我不认为他们真正深入了解对方。
I think I always resented the fact that people thought I was trying to entertain them with my multifaceted, chameleonlike character changes. Although I liked doing that, I wasn't out to fool people and say 'Guess which one is me.'
我想我总是对人们认为我试图用我多方面的、变色龙般的性格变化来取悦他们感到不满。虽然我喜欢这样做,但我并不是要愚弄别人,然后说“猜猜哪个是我”。
Mountains were once my big adventure but is is over since a long time; I still dream from the wonderful days sometimes, read also a few pages from a mountain book. But the thought of doing again active mountain climbing has faded.

Without any formal orders to retreat, what was left of the several organizations yielded to a general impulse to abandon the field. Officers and men became controlled by the one thought of getting as far as possible from the enemy.

In the old days they, the promoters, wanted more and more from me. They wanted me to jump or spill my blood and break my bones. Every time they wanted me to jump further, and further, and further. Hell, they thought my bike had wings.
在过去的日子里,他们,那些推销商,对我的要求越来越高。他们想让我跳起来,或者把我的血溅出来,打断我的骨头。每次他们想让我跳得更远,更远,更远。见鬼,他们以为我的自行车有翅膀。
To me, flying free is doing what I want to do, even if it's different from what everybody expects me to do. I'm flying free when I win the battle between me and the people who thought I should go down this road and I find my own road.
对我来说,自由飞翔就是做我想做的事,即使它和每个人期望我做的不一样。当我在我和那些认为我应该走这条路的人的战斗中获胜时,我自由地飞翔,我找到了自己的路。

我以为我要被杀了。伤亡惨重,这只是一种猜测。我学会了接受每一天,每一个任务。这就是我在职业生涯中所持有的态度。我接受每一个案例,每一份工作。
