A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
爸爸
Dad
I love my dad, although I'm definitely critical of him sometimes, like when his pants are too tight. But I love him so much and I try to be really supportive of him.
我爱我的爸爸,虽然有时候我对他很挑剔,比如他的裤子太紧的时候。但我很爱他,我试着真正支持他。
I don't really plan to be a pop star; I just want to be able to make music without the whole My Dad thing hanging over me, which everyone in my position goes through.

I had lost relationships with my dad, my brother and sister and I was just like, you know what, this is definitely the time to just get it together and so that's what I did.
我和爸爸、哥哥、姐姐失去了关系,我就想,你知道吗,现在绝对是时候和好了,所以我就这样做了。
My goal is for Gunnar to outlive me. That's the way it should be. My dream is for him to be a dad himself one day, so he can find out all the anxiety that kids bring to their dads.

When you get pure joy out of 'being' rather than 'doing' or 'seeing,' that's when you realize how big and unexplainable some things are and being a dad is one of those very few things.
当你从“做”而不是“做”或“看”中获得纯粹的快乐时,你就会意识到有些事情是多么大、多么难以解释,而做一个父亲就是其中之一。
My dad used to say all the time to go out and win this inning. It's one pitch, one inning, one game at a time. It sounds ridiculous, but people who are good at doing it have more success.
我爸爸以前总是说要出去赢这一局。这是一个投球,一局,一场比赛。这听起来很荒谬,但擅长做这件事的人会更成功。
I wanted to perform well for my mom and dad, because in high school, I didn't have a job. My brothers, they worked at Pizza Hut or places like that, but sports, that was my way of giving back.

Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad, and that's why I call you dad, because you are so special to me. You taught me the game and you taught me how to play it right.

Last time I spoke to my mom she called me from a pay phone, and we didn't have the best talk. Ever since my stepdad passed away three years ago, she has been very depressed and hasn't been herself at all.

你无法不成为一名音乐家,因为你是伴随着音乐长大的,然而成为一名音乐家意味着被拿来和你的父亲相比,并因此而受到指责。但我真的没有大多数进入这个行业的人的雄心壮志。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Playing music has always felt very natural. You know, you do try to do other things, and you do learn lessons that way, but, eventually - well... if your dad is a plumber, you become a plumber. It's the family business, and I felt like I was taking over the family business.
