A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

It is well for us that we are born babies in intellect. Could we understand half what mothers say and do to their infants, we should be filled with a conceit of our own importance, which would render us insupportable through life.
我们在智力上天生就是婴儿,这对我们来说是件好事。如果我们能听懂母亲对婴儿所说的话和所做的事的一半,我们就会对自己的重要性充满自负,这种自负会使我们一生都无法忍受。
That is, we are bombarded by all kinds of images and influences and we have to fend some of them off if we're to take in any of them, or to carry through just our ordinary day's work, or really deepen whatever we have to do or say.
也就是说,我们被各种各样的图像和影响所轰炸,如果我们想要接受其中的任何一个,或者只是进行我们日常的工作,或者真正深化我们必须做或说的任何事情,我们就必须避开其中的一些。
With The Key, it was, I had gone through a divorce and losing my father, and just kinda really reminiscing about how much I loved the traditional side of country music, so I made a record that was really traditional from start to finish.
关键是,我经历了离婚,失去了父亲,回想起我是多么热爱乡村音乐传统的一面,所以我制作了一张从头到尾都非常传统的唱片。
Attempting to write vocal oriented songs to me felt like going through the motions and if you are going to go through the motions you might as well just do any gig that caused you to do repetitive motions like banging a hammer or serving fries.
对我来说,尝试写一些以声音为导向的歌曲就像走过场,如果你也要走过场,你也可以做一些会让你重复动作的表演,比如敲锤子或吃薯条。
I felt more comfortable playing other people than being myself, when I was a kid. And then, the tables turned. Through my performances, I've become more comfortable with who I am, and then I just bring more of myself into the people that I play.
当我还是个孩子的时候,我觉得和别人玩比做我自己更舒服。然后,形势发生了逆转。通过我的表演,我对自己变得更自在了,然后我把更多的自己带到了我所扮演的人身上。
The course that will restore to the workmen a father's duties and responsibilities, between which and themselves the state has now stepped, is for them to reject all forced contributions from others, and to do their own work through their own voluntary combinations.
现在,国家已经介入了工人和他们自己之间的关系,在这一过程中,工人们要恢复父亲的职责和义务,那就是拒绝接受别人的一切强迫劳动,通过自己自愿的结合来完成自己的工作。
I rallied all the youth around me, all the people who liked Compa, but felt like it was dying, going away, being replaced with Zouk. So it became a movement. So, through the years, I've played my music with dedication, discipline and originality, and controversy also.
我把所有的年轻人聚集在我周围,所有喜欢康柏的人,但感觉它正在消亡,消失,被佐克取代。所以它变成了一场运动。所以,这么多年来,我一直在用奉献、自律、原创和争议来演奏我的音乐。
If it's just screaming - and I know this sounds so ridiculous - that gets old. But sometimes when there's literal chaos, it's like being in a war zone, and that's kind of exciting. You're just running through the crowd of people chasing after you and no one knows what's going on.
如果只是尖叫——我知道这听起来很荒谬——那就老了。但有时,当真的发生混乱时,就像身处战区一样,这是令人兴奋的。你只是在人群中奔跑,没有人知道发生了什么。
I hear people all the time say, well I read through the Bible last year. Well, so what? I'm all for reading through the Bible. But how much of that got on the inside, or did they just cover three more chapters today? I would never discredit reading the Scriptures, but it is important to meditate on it.
我经常听到人们说,我去年读了圣经。好吧,那又怎样?我完全赞成通读圣经。但是里面有多少内容呢,还是他们今天又讲了三章?我永远不会怀疑阅读圣经,但冥想是很重要的。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Everybody goes through a stage where you have it. And, all of a sudden, you don't have it anymore. You get older and the audience gets younger.
每个人都会经历这样一个阶段。然后,突然间,你不再拥有它了。你变老了,观众也变年轻了。
The quality of light by which we scrutinize our lives has direct bearing upon the product which we live, and upon the changes which we hope to bring about through those lives.
我们审视自己生活的光线质量直接影响着我们所生活的产品,以及我们希望通过这些生活带来的变化。
When walking through the "valley of shadows," remember, a shadow is cast by a Light.
当走过“阴影谷”时,记住,阴影是由光投射的。
The time to hesitate is through.
犹豫的时间已经过去了。
I've been through a lot of struggles.
我经历了很多挣扎。
There is a huge responsibility on all of us to get England through. It would be one of the biggest disasters in sports history if we blew it and we must make sure it does not happen.
我们所有人都有巨大的责任帮助英格兰度过难关。如果我们搞砸了,这将是体育史上最大的灾难之一,我们必须确保它不会发生。
