A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
你自己
Yourself
If you want to act, you have to devote yourself to it. Send out letters and photos every day, work all the hours under the sun, whatever it takes. If you're not determined, you won't get anywhere.
如果你想行动,你必须全身心地投入。每天发送信件和照片,在阳光下工作,不惜一切代价。如果你不下定决心,你将一事无成。
I like to follow my favorite team and talk sports with my band or fans. You won't believe how many musicians are sports fans. We have so much time on tour that we need these outlets for relaxation.
我喜欢跟随我最喜欢的球队,和我的乐队或球迷谈论运动。你不会相信有多少音乐家是体育迷。我们有这么多时间在旅游,我们需要这些出口放松。
Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe.
让你的梦想充满活力。理解要实现任何事情都需要对自己有信心,有远见,努力工作,有决心,有奉献精神。记住,对那些相信的人来说,一切皆有可能。
Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use.
不要让完成一件事所需要的时间的恐惧阻碍你去做这件事。时间总会过去的;我们不妨把这段时间用在最好的地方。
I've always been most interested in the politics of everyday life: your relation to whatever you're doing, or what your ambitions are, where you live, where you find yourself in the social hierarchy.
我一直对日常生活中的政治最感兴趣:你与你所做的任何事情的关系,或者你的抱负是什么,你住在哪里,你发现自己处于社会的哪个阶层。
You think, eventually, that nothing can disturb you and that your nerves are impregnable. Yet, looking down at that familiar face, I realized that death is something to which we never become calloused.
你认为,最终,没有什么可以打扰你,你的神经是坚不可摧的。然而,看着那张熟悉的脸,我意识到死亡是一种我们永远不会变得麻木的东西。
Instead of being concerned that you have no office, be concerned to think how you may fit yourself for office. Instead of being concerned that you are not known, see to the (be?) worthy of being known.
与其担心自己没有办公室,不如考虑一下自己是否适合这个职位。与其担心自己不为人所知,不如让自己值得被人所知。
If you stand up and be counted, from time to time you may get yourself knocked down. But remember this: A man flattened by an opponent can get up again. A man flattened by conformity stays down for good.
如果你站起来被计数,你可能会不时地被击倒。但请记住:一个被对手击倒的人可以重新站起来。一个被从众心理压扁的人会永远消沉下去。
I'm not sure why writing for others became harder. Probably a reluctance to give away anything you might conceivably use yourself caused a block. I did it, but it remained hard when it had once been easy.
我不知道为什么为别人写作变得越来越难。可能是不愿意放弃任何你可能会用到的东西造成了阻塞。我做到了,但当它曾经是容易的时候,它仍然是困难的。
You can either read something many times in order to be assured that you got it all, or else you can define your purpose and use techniques which will assure that you have met it and gotten what you need.
你可以反复阅读一些东西,以确保你已经掌握了所有的知识,或者你可以明确自己的目标,使用一些技巧来确保你已经达到了目标,得到了你需要的东西。
And you yourself always be seated at the middle fo the high table that your presence as lord or lady may appear openly to all, and that you may plainly see on either side all the service and all the faults.
你自己总是坐在高台的中间,这样你作为主或夫人的身份就会在众人面前显露出来,你也会清楚地看到两边的一切服务和缺点。
Forties are good! I'm thinking with my brain now, which is a lot more clear, and women seem to appreciate that. It's a wonderful decade where you're in control of yourself but the women are still interested.
四十岁是好的!我现在用我的大脑思考,这更清晰了,女性似乎很欣赏这一点。这是一个美妙的十年,你可以控制自己,但女性仍然感兴趣。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
To find yourself, think for yourself.
要找到自己,请自己思考。
As an actor, you always have to reinvent yourself or you end up in the gutter somewhere. It's my job to always change people's minds. I've known that for a long time and I've had to do it.
作为一名演员,你总是要重新塑造自己,否则你就会落得个落魄潦倒的下场。我的工作就是改变人们的想法。我知道这一点很长时间了,我必须这么做。
Sometimes you just got to give yourself what you wish someone else would give you.
有时候你只能给自己你希望别人给你的东西。
When you have to start compromising yourself or your morals for the people around you, It's probably time to change the people around you.
当你不得不开始向你周围的人妥协,或者妥协你的道德标准时,也许是时候改变你周围的人了。
Everything in the universe is within you. Ask all from yourself.

When marrying, ask yourself this question: Do you believe that you will be able to converse well with this person into your old age? Everything else in marriage is transitory.
当你结婚的时候,问自己这个问题:你相信在你年老的时候你能和这个人很好地交谈吗?婚姻中的其他一切都是短暂的。
