A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
比较
Comparison
For me music is a vehicle to bring our pain to the surface, getting it back to that humble and tender spot where, with luck, it can lose its anger and become compassion again.
对我来说,音乐是一种工具,把我们的痛苦带到表面,让它回到那个谦卑而温柔的地方,在那里,如果幸运的话,它可以失去愤怒,再次成为同情。
Life is a game of whist. From unseen sources The cards are shuffled, and the hands are dealt. I do not like the way the cards are shuffled, But yet I like the game and want to play.
生活是一场惠斯特的游戏。从看不见的来源,牌被洗牌,手被处理。我不喜欢洗牌的方式,但我喜欢这个游戏,想玩。
I'm an action player. I like to be aggressive. I don't like to be on the run. I like to feel like I have the fates in my hands and that through my skill or lack thereof I control my fate.
我是一名动作玩家。我喜欢积极进取。我不喜欢忙个不停。我喜欢感觉命运掌握在自己手中,通过我的技能或缺乏技能,我可以控制自己的命运。
I think anybody who has been in the theater, prefers it. Television is a... factory. You turn out things on a revolving assembly line. You don't have time to perfect anything in television.
我想所有去过剧院的人都更喜欢它。电视是一种……工厂。你在旋转装配线上生产东西。你没有时间去完善电视上的任何东西。
We all dream; we do not understand our dreams, yet we act as if nothing strange goes on in our sleep minds, strange at least by comparison with the logical, purposeful doings of our minds when we are awake.
我们所有的梦想;我们不理解自己的梦,但我们的行为就好像我们的睡眠中没有发生什么奇怪的事情,至少与我们清醒时头脑中合乎逻辑的、有目的的行为相比是奇怪的。
Comparisons are really no good in sport, especially if it is a comparison between different eras and generations, for there are so many variables that come into play, starting from the quality of the opposition to playing conditions.
在体育运动中,比较是没有好处的,尤其是在不同的时代和时代之间的比较,因为有太多的变量在起作用,从对手的质量到比赛条件。
There is no reasoning, no process of inference or comparison; there is no thinking about things, no putting two and two together; there are no ideas - the animal does not think of the box or of the food or of the act he is to perform.
没有推理,没有推理或比较的过程;没有思考的东西,没有把两者结合在一起;没有想法——动物不会想到盒子、食物或他要做的事情。
Once people start making comparisons to a player of the past, they want you to be that player. I try to go out there and create my own image, my own style, my own type of game. Right now I can't even think of one guy I've been compared to.
一旦人们开始拿过去的球员做比较,他们希望你成为那个球员。我尝试着去创造我自己的形象,我自己的风格,我自己的游戏类型。现在我甚至想不出一个人能和我相比。
