A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
改变
Change
Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.
即使在文学和艺术领域,也没有人为原创而烦恼的人永远不会是原创的。相反,如果你只是想说真话(不在乎别人告诉你多少次),十有八九你会在没有注意到的情况下变得原创。
When we did a lot of that Motown stuff there were four of us on the front line. When we started the evening we'd start from one end of the band and just go along. The lead singer would change all the time. That's the first time that I actually managed to put it into a record.
当我们在汽车城做很多事情的时候,我们有四个人在前线。当我们晚上开始的时候,我们会从乐队的一端开始,跟着乐队走。主唱总是在变。这是我第一次把它记录下来。
The debt limits have to come down. The whole world of debt has to be changed as far as this country is concerned. We have to create jobs and we have to create them rapidly because if we don't things are just going to head in a direction that's going to be almost impossible to recover from.
债务上限必须降低。就这个国家而言,整个世界的债务都必须改变。我们必须创造就业,而且必须迅速创造就业,因为如果我们不这样做,事情就会朝着一个几乎不可能复苏的方向发展。
I'm not asking any of you to make drastic changes to every single one of your recipes or to totally change the way you do business. But what I am asking is that you consider reformulating your menu in pragmatic and incremental ways to create healthier versions of the foods that we all love.
我并不是要求你们中的任何一个人对你们的每一个食谱都做出巨大的改变,或者完全改变你们做生意的方式。但我想问的是,你要考虑重新规划你的菜单,以务实和渐进的方式,创造出我们都喜欢的食物的健康版本。
We have no reason to think that climate change is harmful if you look at the world as a whole. Most places, in fact, are better off being warmer than being colder. And historically, the really bad times for the environment and for people have been the cold periods rather than the warm periods.
如果你把世界看作一个整体,我们没有理由认为气候变化是有害的。事实上,在大多数地方,变暖比变冷要好。从历史上看,对环境和人类来说,真正糟糕的时期是寒冷时期,而不是温暖时期。

It is truly a privilege to be able to support all women's causes on a global level. It is remarkable that something as simple as television can empower us to create change and awareness in the world.
能够在全球范围内支持所有妇女的事业,确实是一种特权。值得注意的是,像电视这样简单的东西可以让我们在世界上创造改变和意识。
'Vote Love' means vote equality. It means vote change. It means vote what's right for humanity.
“投票爱”意味着投票平等。这意味着投票的改变。这意味着为人类的权利投票。

Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
只要罪恶还能忍受,人类宁可忍受,也不愿为了正义而废除他们所习惯的形式。
