KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
You can't write about people out of textbooks, and you can't use jargon. You have to speak clearly and simply and purely in a language that a six-year-old child can understand; and yet have the meanings and the overtones of language, and the implications, that appeal to the highest intelligence.
你不能写教科书之外的人物,你也不能使用术语。你必须用一个六岁的孩子能听懂的语言清晰、简单、纯粹地说;然而,语言的含义和暗示,以及它的含意,都能吸引最高的智力。
Very few people possess true artistic ability. It is therefore both unseemly and unproductive to irritate the situation by making an effort. If you have a burning, restless urge to write or paint, simply eat something sweet and the feeling will pass.
很少有人有真正的艺术才能。因此,通过努力来刺激局势既不合适,也没有效果。如果你有一种强烈的,不安分的写作或绘画的冲动,只要吃点甜食,这种感觉就会过去。
If you know somebody is going to be awfully annoyed by something you write, that's obviously very satisfying, and if they howl with rage or cry, that's honey.
如果你知道有人会被你写的东西惹恼,这显然是非常令人满意的,如果他们因为愤怒而嚎啕大哭,那就是蜜糖。
When I sit down to write a song, it's a kind of improvisation, but I formalize it a bit to get it into the studio, and when I step up to a microphone, I have a vague idea of what I'm about to do.
当我坐下来写一首歌的时候,这是一种即兴创作,但是我把它正式化了一点,让它进入录音室,当我走到麦克风前的时候,我对我要做什么有一个模糊的概念。
It's not how big your pencil is; it's how you write your name.
重要的不是你的铅笔有多大;这是你写名字的方式。
I can't write, I can't paint, I don't compose.
我不会写字,不会画画,也不会作曲。
