A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
总是
Always
I have always been a person who is concerned with the dignity of jazz music and the way jazz musicians have been treated and are treated, and the fact that the music has not been given the kind of due that it deserves.
我一直是一个关心爵士音乐尊严的人，关心爵士音乐家被对待和被对待的方式，关心音乐没有得到应有的尊重。
I just always knew that I lived in two worlds. There was the world of my house and community, but to make my way in that white world I had to modify the way I spoke and acted. I had to sometimes not make direct eye contact.
我一直都知道我生活在两个世界里。那是我的家和社区的世界，但为了在那个白人世界中生存，我必须改变自己说话和行动的方式。有时我不得不避免直视对方。
I think for me I've always loved being in the water and I love training and I love being at the pool so you know it's not a chore for me to go training, but come race day I would never just train to train - I train to race.
我想对我来说，我一直喜欢在水里，我喜欢训练，我喜欢在游泳池里，所以你知道，对我来说，去训练不是一件苦差事，但是到了比赛的那一天，我不会只是训练再训练，我训练再比赛。
I have always been amazed at the way an ordinary observer lends so much more credence and attaches so much more importance to waking events than to those occurring in dreams... Man... is above all the plaything of his memory.
我总是惊讶于一个普通的观察者是如何给予如此多的信任和重视醒着的事情，而不是那些发生在梦里的事情……男人。是他记忆中最重要的玩物。
I always tell my kids if you lay down, people will step over you. But if you keep scrambling, if you keep going, someone will always, always give you a hand. Always. But you gotta keep dancing, you gotta keep your feet moving.
我总是告诉我的孩子，如果你躺下，人们会踩到你。但如果你继续努力，如果你继续前进，总会有人给你帮助。总是这样。但你得继续跳舞，你得让你的脚动起来。
I was diagnosed a number of years ago with obsessive-compulsive disorder - which everyone has, to some degree - and I have this really annoying trait where in conversation, I always steer it back to something that happened to me.
几年前，我被诊断出患有强迫症——在某种程度上，每个人都有这种病——我有一个非常恼人的特点，在谈话中，我总是把话题转回到发生在我身上的事情上。
Stories had always been told about male genies coming out of bottles, but they were usually fat, old men. Never had the genie been a gorgeous woman, so that idea really appealed to me, and I created the series based on that premise.
人们总是说男精灵会从瓶子里出来，但他们通常都是又胖又老的男人。精灵从来都不是一个漂亮的女人，所以这个想法真的吸引了我，我基于这个前提创作了这个系列。
I've always swung the same way. The difference is when I swing and miss, people say, 'He's swinging for the fences.' But when I swing and make contact people say, 'That's a nice swing.' But there's no difference, it's the same swing.
我总是朝着同一个方向摇摆。不同之处在于，当我挥杆失误时，人们会说，‘他是在打篱笆。但当我挥杆并与他人取得联系时，他们会说，这是一次很好的挥杆。“但是没有区别，这是同一个秋千。
I protest that if some great Power would agree to make me always think what is true and do what is right, on condition of being turned into a sort of clock and would up every morning before I got out of bed, I should instantly close with the offer.
我抗议说，如果某个大国愿意让我永远思考什么是真的，做什么是对的，条件是把我变成一种时钟，每天早上在我起床之前就起床，那么我就应该立刻结束这个提议。
As things are, and as fundamentally they must always be, poetry is not a career, but a mug's game. No honest poet can ever feel quite sure of the permanent value of what he has written: He may have wasted his time and messed up his life for nothing.
诗歌不是一种职业，而是一种徒劳无益的游戏。没有一个诚实的诗人能对他所写的东西的永久价值有十足的把握:他可能白白浪费了时间，把生活搞得一团糟。
Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.
忙碌并不总是意味着真正的工作。所有工作的目标都是生产或成就，而要达到其中任何一个目标，都必须有先见之明、系统、计划、智慧、诚实的目标，以及勤奋。表面上做，实际上没有做。
I feel connected to the Second World War because my father lost his father in that war. So, through my dad and the effect it had on him of losing his father young, I always felt connected to the war. It goes back years, but it still feels to me as if we're completely living in it.
我觉得我和第二次世界大战有联系，因为我父亲在那场战争中失去了他的父亲。因此，通过我的父亲，以及年轻时失去父亲对他的影响，我总是觉得自己与战争有联系。它可以追溯到多年前，但我仍然觉得我们完全生活在其中。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
An educated person is one who has learned that information almost always turns out to be at best incomplete and very often false, misleading, fictitious, mendacious - just dead wrong.
一个受过教育的人是这样的人:他知道，事实往往是，信息至多是不完整的，而且往往是错误的、误导人的、虚构的、虚假的——完全是错误的。
When a woman like that whom I've seen so much, All of a sudden drops out of touch; Is always busy and never can, Spare you a moment, it means a man.

A laugh is a surprise. And all humor is physical. I was always athletic, so that came naturally to me.
笑是一种惊喜。所有的幽默都是身体上的。我一直都是运动员，所以这对我来说很自然。

我很阳光。你知道，我总是很乐观。
