A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
零
Zero
What might be taken for a precocious genius is the genius of childhood. When the child grows up, it disappears without a trace. It may happen that this boy will become a real painter some day, or even a great painter. But then he will have to begin everything again, from zero.
一个早熟的天才可能被认为是童年时代的天才。当孩子长大了，它会消失得无影无踪。也许有一天这个男孩会成为一个真正的画家，甚至是一个伟大的画家。但到那时，他将不得不重新开始一切，从零开始。
Being part of a team helped me so much. I know the fact that there was a man in the room with me all those years made the medicine go down. I had made the companies money. I didn't have to start, like a lot of women, from ground zero. My path was not the same as a woman starting out by herself.
成为团队的一员对我帮助很大。我知道这么多年来一直有一个男人和我在同一个房间，这使我的病情恶化了。我为公司赚了钱。我不需要像很多女性一样，从世贸中心遗址开始。我的人生道路不像一个女人独自出发。
All those predictions about how much economic growth will be created by this, all of those new jobs, would be created by the things we wanted - the extension of unemployment insurance and middle class tax cuts. An estate tax for millionaires adds exactly zero jobs. A tax cut for billionaires - virtually none.
所有这些关于经济增长的预测，所有这些新的就业机会，都将由我们想要的东西创造出来——延长失业保险和中产阶级减税。对百万富翁征收遗产税，就业机会几乎为零。为亿万富翁减税——实际上没有。
Positive rights are the right to shelter, the right to education, the right to health care, the right to a living wage. These things are - these are, I would call them, more properly, political rights rather than positive rights. And they are extremely tricky, because now we are dealing with things that are zero sum.
积极权利包括住房权、受教育权、保健权、生活工资权。这些是——我更恰当地说，是政治权利，而不是积极的权利。它们非常棘手，因为现在我们处理的是零和。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
It is time that scientists and other public intellectuals observed that the contest between faith and reason is zero-sum.
是时候让科学家和其他公共知识分子注意到，信仰和理性之间的竞争是零和的。
Love means never having to say you're a zero.
爱意味着永远不必说你是零分。
Larry wanted us to reposition the tower. We wouldn't, and won't. He's been holding back our fees. We want to get paid. And that's it. It'll get solved and we'll carry on with planning Ground Zero.
拉里想让我们重新定位塔。我们不会，也不会。他一直拖欠我们的费用。我们想要得到报酬。就是这样。它会被解决的，我们会继续计划归零地。
Yes, our tree has an interesting shape. The center branches reflect the shape of the zero curve. When extreme parts of the tree are reached the branching pattern changes to accommodate the mean reversion.
是的，我们的树有一个有趣的形状。中心分支反映了零曲线的形状。当到达树的极端部分时，分支模式会发生变化，以适应平均反转。
Go learn the language. Go take some acting lessons. Start from zero like everybody else.
去学语言。去上表演课吧。像其他人一样从零开始。
