A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
名人
Celebrity
Combine that with the fact that we only had one week to get everything taken care of and to get to know one another, whereas most shows get two weeks. It looked like we would never have a chance.
再加上我们只有一周的时间来处理所有的事情和了解彼此,而大多数节目只有两周的时间。看来我们永远都没有机会了。
I love acting but I don't like all of the other stuff associated with it. The interest in celebrities, the press, the Internet, when your identity becomes mixed up in the way people are preceving you.
我喜欢表演,但我不喜欢与之相关的其他东西。对名人、媒体、互联网的兴趣,当你的身份和别人对你的看法混在一起时。
My dad was the baby. When he was born they were already successful. They sent him to business school - he probably would have loved to have been a poet or a writer or something, and he was very creative.
我爸爸是婴儿。当他出生时,他们已经很成功了。他们把他送进了商学院——他可能很想成为一名诗人或作家之类的,而且他非常有创造力。
And I don't believe that I have to stay on one side of the fence or the other. I don't believe that there is any good career move or bad career move. I believe there are only the things that make me happy.
我不认为我必须站在篱笆的一边或另一边。我不认为有什么好的或坏的职业变动。我相信只有事情能让我快乐。
For me I'm a luxury brand trying to prove to people and the industry that it's not about being a TV celebrity in any which way, it's about being a designer and having a business and being successful at that.
对我来说,我是一个奢侈品牌,试图向人们和整个行业证明,这并不意味着要以任何方式成为电视明星,而是要成为一名设计师,拥有一家企业,并在这方面取得成功。
Power is not of a man. Wealth does not center in the person of the wealthy. Celebrity is not inherent in any personality. To be celebrated, to be wealthy, to have power requires access to major institutions.
权力不是一个人的。财富并不以富人为中心。名人并不是与生俱来的。要想出名,要有钱,要有权力,就必须有进入大机构的机会。
The only people who have control over their careers are the ones you see on the covers of magazines. Everyone else is just plodding along making a living. The key is not to live over your means and overdo it.
只有你在杂志封面上看到的人才能控制自己的职业生涯。其他人只是在艰难地谋生。关键是不要过度消费。
So, I didn't get moved up because of celebrity status or anything like that. I got in line, and I passed the test. And they realized that I was sick enough, and as soon as the liver became available, I got one.
所以,我没有因为名人地位或类似的事情而得到提升。我排队,我通过了考试。他们意识到我已经病得很严重了,我的肝脏一出来,我就得到了一个。
There's less critical thinking going on in this country on a Main Street level - forget about the media - than ever before. We've never needed people to think more critically than now, and they've taken a big nap.
在这个国家,普通民众的批判性思维比以往任何时候都要少,更别提媒体了。我们从来没有像现在这样需要人们进行更批判性的思考,他们已经睡了个大觉。
I've had lots of replies, we're into the double figures now. And the overall standard is very good. In fact I've been feeling a little guilty, because I haven't replied to anyone yet - it is something I will be doing.
我收到了很多回复,我们现在都快达到两位数了。总体标准非常好。事实上,我一直感到有点内疚,因为我还没有回复任何人——这是我将要做的事情。
Mr. Wrigley believed in this: Put all your eggs in one basket and watch the basket. They don't do that today. This is the old-fashioned way I'm talking about. He carried it on to his business. Do one thing and stay with it.
箭牌先生的信念是:把所有的鸡蛋放在一个篮子里,看好篮子。他们今天不这样做。这是我说的老式方法。他继续经营他的生意。做一件事并坚持下去。
I was very much in my room with my marionette stage, you know, creating these incredibly boring things that I felt were so fascinating, and forcing my relatives to come, and charging money for them to see my little productions.
我经常和我的木偶舞台在我的房间里,你知道,创作这些令人难以置信的无聊的东西,我觉得它们是如此的迷人,强迫我的亲戚们来,并让他们看我的小作品收费。
