A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

过

Ever

Rich kids gave us their old clothes. They were the best clothes we ever had. We were these very pure, naive, poor children. The rich kids called us a lot of names but it never bothered us because we didn't know what the words meant.

有钱的孩子把他们的旧衣服给了我们。它们是我们有过的最好的衣服。我们都是非常纯洁、天真、贫穷的孩子。有钱人家的孩子给我们起了很多名字,但我们从不介意,因为我们不知道这些词的意思。

You think about some of the most memorable meals you've ever had; the food will be good but it will often be about locating a mental memory and taste is inexorably linked to all the other senses and memory, so ultimately it is all about taste.

你会想起一些你吃过的最难忘的食物;食物会很好,但它往往是关于定位一个心理记忆和味道是不可避免地联系到所有其他的感官和记忆,所以最终是关于味道。

So long as the system of competition in the production and exchange of the means of life goes on, the degradation of the arts will go on; and if that system is to last for ever, then art is doomed, and will surely die; that is to say, civilization will die.

只要生产和交换生活资料的竞争制度继续下去,艺术就会继续退化;如果这一体系要永远持续下去,那么艺术就注定要消亡,也必然会消亡;也就是说,文明将会消亡。

I get really cool gifts, and I know this sounds really lame, but I think one of the best gifts I've ever received was the Easy Bake Oven when I was younger. When I was little, I loved to bake! I want to get one now so I can make weird mini desserts for people.

我收到很酷的礼物,我知道这听起来很差劲,但我认为我收到的最好的礼物之一是我年轻时收到的简易烤箱。当我小的时候,我喜欢烘焙!我想现在就买一个,这样我就可以为人们做一些奇怪的迷你甜点。

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。
