A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

足够

Enough

If I am constantly working, my relationships fail. So at least now I can have enough time to write a happy record. And be in love and be happy. And then I don't know what I'll do. Get married. Have some kids. Plant a nice vegetable patch.

如果我一直工作,我的人际关系就会失败。所以,至少现在我可以有足够的时间写一个快乐的记录。要爱,要快乐。然后我不知道该怎么做。结婚。有一些孩子。种一块漂亮的菜地。

Yeah, we shot ourselves in the foot right out of the gate. The guy who ran it at first misled pretty much everybody about how much capital we had. He said we had enough to go three years without making money, and we had enough to go three weeks.

是啊,我们一出校门就搬起石头砸了自己的脚。一开始经营这家公司的人在我们有多少资本的问题上误导了几乎所有人。他说我们有足够的钱过三年不赚钱的日子,也有足够的钱过三个星期。

All the lessons of history in four sentences: Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad with power. The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly small. The bee fertilizes the flower it robs. When it is dark enough, you can see the stars.

历史的全部教训用四句话概括: 神要谁灭亡,必先使谁因势力而发狂。 天网恢恢,疏而不漏。天网恢恢,疏而不漏。 蜜蜂使它抢夺的花受精。 当足够黑的时候,你可以看到星星。

Before acting, I wanted to become a journalist. I also toyed with the idea of being a chef - but that's only when people asked me what I wanted to be. In fact, I always used to say I wanted to be an actor, but I didn't ever believe that I was good enough to be come one.

在演戏之前,我想成为一名记者。我也有过当厨师的想法,但那只是当人们问我想做什么的时候。事实上,我总是说我想成为一名演员,但我从来都不相信我有能力成为一名演员。

I was pretty dead set against ever writing an academic novel. It's always been my view that there are already more than enough academic novels and that most of them aren't any good. Most of them are self-conscious and bitter, the work of people who want to settle grudges.

我坚决反对写学术小说。我一直认为,学术小说已经够多了,而且大多数都不好。他们中的大多数人都是有自我意识的和痛苦的,他们的工作是那些想要解决怨恨的人的工作。

I want to clear my mind a little bit and give my mind a little bit of time to breathe so I can pinpoint or at least nail down feelings I'm having and that I've had for the last however long. I need to nail them down long enough to actually write about and elaborate on them.

我想清理一下我的大脑,给我的大脑一点时间来呼吸,这样我就可以精确地描述或者至少确定我的感受,以及我已经有了多久的感觉。我需要把它们写下来,并详细说明。

Too many pitchers, that's all, there are just too many pitchers Ten or twelve on a team. Don't see how any of them get enough work. Four starting pitchers and one relief man ought to be enough. Pitch 'em every three days and you'd find they'd get control and good, strong arms.

太多的投手,就是这样,一支球队有太多的十到十二个投手。我不明白他们怎么能找到足够的工作。四个先发投手和一个替补应该足够了。每隔三天投一次球,你就会发现他们控制得很好,手臂也很强壮。

They think that, if we were just smart enough, we'd be able to understand their policies. And I so want to tell 'em, and I do tell 'em, Oh, we're plenty smart, oh yeah - we know what's goin' on. And we don't like what's goin' on. And we're not gonna let them tell us to sit down and shut up.

他们认为,如果我们足够聪明,就能理解他们的政策。我很想告诉他们,我也告诉他们,哦,我们很聪明,哦,是的,我们知道发生了什么。我们不喜欢正在发生的事情。我们不会让他们让我们坐下来闭嘴。
