A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

Ever
I always get a little uppity when I hear the phrase 'TV actor.' It's like saying you're a magazine reporter. I was in the theater for ten years before I ever had a TV audition.
当我听到“电视演员”这个词时，我总是有点自大。这就像说你是一名杂志记者。在我参加电视试镜之前，我在剧院工作了十年。
He's very concealed, Polanski. We became very close friends, but I don't think I ever saw him drop his guard. I didn't see him upset or anything like that, we just did the work.
他很隐蔽，波兰斯基。我们成了非常亲密的朋友，但我想我从未见过他放松警惕。我没有看到他难过或类似的事情，我们只是做了工作。
Honor is a gift a man gives himself. You can be as good as anyone that ever lived. If you can read, you can learn everything that anyone ever learned. But you've got to want it.
荣誉是一个人给自己的礼物。你可以像任何一个曾经生活过的人一样好。如果你能读书，你就能学到任何人学过的一切。但你必须想要。
No poet or novelist wishes he were the only one who ever lived, but most of them wish they were the only one alive, and quite a number fondly believe their wish has been granted.
没有诗人或小说家希望自己是唯一活着的人，但他们中的大多数人希望自己是唯一活着的人，相当多的人天真地认为他们的愿望已经实现了。
If you write something the White House doesn't like, they take you in and say, 'If you ever write something like you did today, nobody from the White House will ever talk to you again,'

Monsieur Puss came at last to a stately castle, the master of which was an Ogre, the richest ever known; for all the lands which the King had then passed through belonged to this castle.

In the beginning, the media was calling me a bad boy all the time because of the way I act and feel onstage. None of them have ever taken the time to get to know me when I climb offstage.
一开始，媒体一直说我是一个坏男孩，因为我在舞台上的表现和感觉。当我走下舞台的时候，他们都没有花时间去了解我。
Have you ever found any logical reason why mutual promises are sufficient consideration for one another (like the two lean horses of a Calcutta hack who can only just stand together)? I have not.
你有没有找到任何合理的理由来解释为什么相互的承诺对彼此来说是足够的考虑(就像加尔各答两个只能站在一起的瘦马)?我没有。
Have you ever heard a good joke? If you've ever heard someone just right, with the right pacing, then you're already on the way to poetry. It's about using words in very precise ways and using gesture.
你听过好笑话吗?如果你曾经听过某人恰到好处，节奏恰到好处，那么你已经踏上了诗歌之路。它是关于以非常精确的方式使用语言和使用手势。
I have learned more about love, selflessness and human understanding from the people I have met in this great adventure in the world of AIDS than I ever did in the cutthroat, competitive world in which I spent my life.
我从我在艾滋病世界的这一伟大冒险中所遇到的人们身上学到的关于爱、无私和人类理解的东西，比我在这个竞争残酷的世界中所经历的一切都要多。
But I work harder now because I have so much more exposure. And actually the harder you work as a writer, the better you get at it. It's like anything else. It's a muscle you have to exercise. I write more now than ever.
但我现在工作更努力了，因为我有了更多的机会。实际上，作为一名作家，你越努力，你写得就越好。就像其他东西一样。你必须锻炼这块肌肉。我现在比以前写得多。
Nature is forever arriving and forever departing, forever approaching, forever vanishing; but in her vanishings there seems to be ever the waving of a hand, in all her partings a promise of meetings farther along the road.
大自然是永远到达，永远离去，永远接近，永远消失;但是在她的轻飘中，似乎总有一只手在挥着，在她所有的离别中，都预示着在这条路上还会有更多的相遇。

Ever since Two Daughters I've been composing my own music.
自从我有两个女儿以后，我就开始自己作曲了。
