A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
没有
Without
The greatest success is creating whatever you want without conditions. I don't do commissions unless I really want to, because it's like having a job.
最大的成功是无条件地创造你想要的一切。除非我真的想做,否则我不会做佣金,因为这就像有一份工作。
So what really gets me is these chickenhawks, who sent our kids to die, without ever serving in a war themselves. They don't know what it's all about.
所以真正让我恼火的是这些鹰嘴鹰,他们把我们的孩子送去送死,自己却从来没有参加过战争。他们不知道这是怎么回事。
Cheerfulness, it would appear, is a matter which depends fully as much on the state of things within, as on the state of things without and around us.
快乐,似乎,是一个完全取决于内部事物的状态,以及外部和周围事物的状态的问题。
And they asked me to take a polygraph as to the allegations and reports I'd made. I volunteered and I took the polygraph and passed it without a glitch.

If all the world hated you, and believed you wicked, while your own conscience approved you, and absolved you from guilt, you would not be without friends.
如果全世界都恨你,都认为你邪恶,而你自己的良心又认可你,并赦免你的罪过,你就不会没有朋友。

Love is the flower of life, and blossoms unexpectedly and without law, and must be plucked where it is found, and enjoyed for the brief hour of its duration.
爱情是生命之花,它的绽放出人意料,没有规律,必须在被发现的地方采摘,并在短暂的时间内尽情享受。

As a playwright, you can cover a lot of waterfront without being able to hold your own against an expert in any of those areas. I have no illusions about that.
作为一个剧作家,你可以覆盖很多海滨地区,而不需要在这些领域与专家抗衡。我对此并不抱有幻想。
Good sense travels on the well-worn paths; genius, never. And that is why the crowd, not altogether without reason, is so ready to treat great men as lunatics.
明智的人走的是老路;天才,从来没有。这就是为什么大众,并非完全没有理由,如此乐意把伟人当作疯子。
