A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
名声
Fame
People always ask me why I still want to play, but I want to know why no one will give me an opportunity. It's like they put a stamp on me: 'Hall of Fame. You're done. That's it.'
人们总是问我为什么我还想玩,但我想知道为什么没有人会给我机会。就像他们在我身上盖了一张邮票:‘名人堂’。你就完成了。就是这样。”
It doesn't matter about money and fame and whatever. I really don't care about that. My thing is, I'm happy that I'm able to have kids have a hero and have someone that they can look up to.
这与金钱、名誉等无关。我真的不在乎。我的问题是,我很高兴我能让孩子们有一个英雄,有一个他们可以仰视的人。
With fame, you know, you can read about yourself, somebody else's ideas about you, but what's important is how you feel about yourself - for survival and living day to day with what comes up.
有了名气,你知道,你可以了解自己,了解别人对你的看法,但重要的是你对自己的感觉——为了生存,为了日复一日地面对生活中发生的一切。
Humbled by the fact that never in a million years would I ever thought that I would be on the same stage with all these great Hall of Famers and enshrined to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
我谦卑地意识到,我从未想过自己会与所有这些名人堂成员站在同一个舞台上,并被载入国家棒球名人堂。
The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom.
一个不贪图名利而奋发图强,不畏惧耻辱而退却的将军,他唯一的思想就是保卫他的国家,为他的君主做有益的事,他就是这个王国的宝石。
I never wanted fame, of all things, and I'm not just being cheeky. There are benefits that come with being famous, but there's also confusion. It's important to make sure your feet stay on the ground.
我从来不想出名,我也不只是厚颜无耻。成名有很多好处,但也有困惑。确保你的脚站在地面上是很重要的。
I never dreamt of being a musician for my livelihood. I certainly never would have wanted to be in the business that I'm in, meaning the fame and the glory, the glitter, the rock star, the famous part.
我从未想过要以当音乐家为生。我当然从来没有想过要从事我现在从事的这个行业,这意味着名声和荣耀,闪耀,摇滚明星,著名的部分。
Some people have been unkind. If i say i want to grow as an actress, they look at my figure. If i say i want to develop, to learn my craft, they laugh. Somehow they don't expect me to be serious about my work.
有些人不友善。如果我说我想成为一名演员,他们会看我的身材。如果我说我想发展,想学习我的手艺,他们会笑。不知怎的,他们不指望我对工作认真。
I'm not a rock star. Sure I am, to a certain extent because of the situation, but when kids ask me how it feels to be a rock star, I say leave me alone, I'm not a rock star. I'm not in it for the fame, I'm in it because I like to play.
我不是摇滚明星。当然,在某种程度上,我是这样的,因为这种情况,但当孩子们问我当摇滚明星感觉如何时,我说,别管我,我不是摇滚明星。我参加比赛不是为了出名,而是因为我喜欢打球。
You've been gone so long from all that you know. It's been shuffled aside as you bask in the glow. All the beautiful strangers who whisper your name, do they fill up the emptiness? Larger that life is your fiction, in a universe made upon one.
你已经离开你所知道的一切太久了。当你沐浴在阳光下时,它已经被拖到一边。所有轻声呼唤你名字的美丽的陌生人,他们填补了空虚吗?在一个建立在你之上的宇宙中,你的虚构比这更伟大。
It was never the fame or fortune that drove me to act. It was something I love and enjoy doing it. A lot of people identify who they are by what they do and that's not me. It's what I do but not who I am. Who I am is a parent. I'm a family man.
驱使我演戏的从来不是名利。这是我喜欢并享受的事情。很多人通过他们所做的事情来确定他们是谁,而不是我。这是我所做的,而不是我是谁。我是谁,是一位母亲。我是个顾家的人。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
I always felt insecure and in the way, but most of all i felt scared. I guess I wanted love more than anything else in the world.
我总是感到不安全,但最重要的是我感到害怕。我想我最想要的就是爱。
It is strange to be known so universally and yet to be so lonely.
如此普遍地为人所知,却又如此孤独,真是奇怪。
After I'm dead I'd rather have people ask why I have no monument than why I have one.

Fame has also this great drawback, that if we pursue it, we must direct our lives so as to please the fancy of men.
声誉也有一个很大的缺点,如果我们追求它,我们必须指导我们的生活,以满足人们的幻想。

I would much rather have men ask why I have no statue, than why I have one.
我宁愿有人问我为什么没有雕像,也不愿有人问我为什么有雕像。
