A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

完成

Done

I am not solicitous to examine particularly everything here, which indeed could not be done in fifty years, because my desire is to make all possible discoveries, and return to your Highnesses, if it please our Lord, in April.

我并不急于在这里详细考察每一件事,事实上,这在五十年之内是不可能完成的,因为我的愿望是找出所有可能的发现,如果我们的主高兴的话,我想在四月回到殿下那里去。

We should be proud of our country when we have done something to be proud of, when we have lived up to our own standards. But the flip side of genuine pride is being able to recognize when we have fallen short, and to hold ourselves to account.

当我们做了一些值得骄傲的事情,当我们达到了自己的标准,我们应该为我们的国家感到骄傲。但真正自豪的另一面是,我们能够意识到自己什么时候做不到,并对自己负责。

He had a way with him. Before you had a chance to say no, he was there and done. That only happened to me once before, with a duke, who literally swept me off my feet, and before I knew what was happening, we'd done it. Another terrible mistake.

他有办法对付他。在你有机会说不之前,他就来了。这种事以前只发生过一次,和一位公爵在一起,他真的让我神魂颠倒,在我知道发生了什么之前,我们就这样做了。另一个严重的错误。

Individuality is founded in feeling; and the recesses of feeling, the darker, blinder strata of character, are the only places in the world in which we catch real fact in the making, and directly perceive how events happen, and how work is actually done.

个性建立在感觉之上;而情感的深处,也就是性格中较暗、较暗的层次,是我们在这个世界上唯一能捕捉到现实的地方,在那里我们能直接感知事件是如何发生的,以及工作实际上是如何完成的。

A ball had passed between my body and the right arm which supported him, cutting through the sleeve and passing through his chest from shoulder to shoulder. There was no more to be done for him and I left him to his rest. I have never mended that hole in my sleeve.

一个球从我的身体和支撑他的右臂之间穿过,穿过他的袖子,从一个肩膀传到另一个肩膀。没有什么可为他做的了,我让他去休息。我从来没有把袖子上的洞补好。

I still like to keep tapes of the few minutes before the final take, things that happen before the session. Maybe it's superstitious, but I believe if I had done things differently - if I had walked around the studio or gone out - it wouldn't have turned out that way.

我仍然喜欢在期末考试前的几分钟录下来,也就是在考试前发生的事情。也许这是迷信的说法,但我相信如果我做的事情不同——如果我在演播室里走来走去或者走出去——结果就不会是那样。

Everybody would love to be mayor of Chicago. If you look at what we have done over many, many years and where we are today and the commitment by the business community, the commitment by the not-for-profit community - all this coming together - this is a wonderful city.

每个人都想成为芝加哥市长。如果你看看我们多年来所做的事情,看看我们今天所处的位置,看看商业团体的承诺,看看非营利团体的承诺——所有这一切汇聚在一起——这是一个美妙的城市。

Giving birth was the most amazing thing I've ever done. I'd been living in a Third World country, and I said, 'I'm going to just squat behind a tree.' I basically did that but in a chair in my living room. I didn't want a sterile hospital room. I didn't want doctors. I had a midwife.

生孩子是我做过的最神奇的事情。我一直生活在第三世界国家,我说,‘我要蹲在一棵树后面。“我基本上就是这么做的,不过是在客厅的一把椅子上。我不想要无菌病房。我不想要医生。我有一个助产士。
