A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
朋友
Friends
When you're a little kid, you don't see color, and the fact that my friends were black never crossed my mind. It never became an issue until I was a teenager and started trying to rap.
当你还是个孩子的时候，你看不到颜色，我从来没有想过我的朋友是黑人。直到我十几岁开始尝试说唱，这才成为一个问题。
And though thou notest from thy safe recess old friends burn dim, like lamps in noisome air love them for what they are; nor love them less, because to thee they are not what they were.
虽然你没有从你那安全的隐窝里探出身来，老朋友们却在黑暗中燃烧，像吵闹的空气中的灯;也不要减少对他们的爱，因为对你来说，他们不再是过去的样子。
We shelter children for a time; we live side by side with men; and that is all. We owe them nothing, and are owed nothing. I think we owe our friends more, especially our female friends.
我们暂时收留孩子;我们与人类生活在一起;就这些。我们不欠他们什么，他们也不欠我们什么。我认为我们欠朋友的更多，尤其是女性朋友。
I would like to be remembered as a man who had a wonderful time living life, a man who had good friends, fine family - and I don't think I could ask for anything more than that, actually.
我希望人们记住我是一个过着美好生活的人，一个拥有好朋友、好家庭的人——事实上，我认为我能要求的就只有这些了。
Whether you like another band's music or not you never know who is going to take you out on tour or who you are going to be friends with and that is just something that is important to us.
不管你喜欢不喜欢其他乐队的音乐，你永远不知道谁会带你去巡演，谁会和你交朋友，这对我们来说很重要。
My friends tell me that I've calmed down, that I seem more centered. I don't know, I think my inner self was more hollow before, which made me more scattered, and more needy to get laughs.
我的朋友告诉我，我已经冷静下来了，我看起来更专注了。我不知道，我觉得我的内心以前更空虚，这让我更分散，更渴望得到笑声。
I wasn't being bullied at school at this point. I had a group of friends, and I was isolated because I wasn't communicating with my parents. I wasn't telling them what I was going through.
那时我在学校没有被欺负。我有一群朋友，我被孤立了，因为我没有和我的父母交流。我没有告诉他们我所经历的一切。
In a bad marriage, friends are the invisible glue. If we have enough friends, we may go on for years, intending to leave, talking about leaving - instead of actually getting up and leaving.
在一段糟糕的婚姻中，朋友是无形的粘合剂。如果我们有足够的朋友，我们可能会继续生活很多年，打算离开，谈论离开——而不是真正地起床离开。
Writers seldom choose as friends those self-contained characters who are never in trouble, never unhappy or ill, never make mistakes and always count their change when it is handed to them.
作家很少选择那些自成一体的人物作为朋友，他们从不惹麻烦，从不不开心或生病，从不犯错误，总是在别人给他们找钱的时候数数。
The best that we can do is to be kindly and helpful toward our friends and fellow passengers who are clinging to the same speck of dirt while we are drifting side by side to our common doom.
我们所能做的最好的事情就是对我们的朋友和同行的乘客友好和帮助，当我们肩并肩漂流向我们共同的命运时，他们紧紧抓住同一粒尘埃。
Geography has made us neighbors. History has made us friends. Economics has made us partners, and necessity has made us allies. Those whom God has so joined together, let no man put asunder.
地理位置使我们成为邻居。历史使我们成为朋友。经济使我们成为伙伴，必要性使我们成为盟友。神所联合的，谁也不可分开。
That's a wonderful change that's taken place, and so most poetry today is published, if not directly by the person, certainly by the enterprise of the poet himself, working with his friends.
这是一个奇妙的变化，所以今天的大多数诗歌都是由诗人和他的朋友们一起发表的，如果不是直接由个人，当然是诗人自己的事业。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Without friends no one would choose to live, though he had all other goods.
没有朋友，没有人会选择生活，尽管他拥有其他所有的财富。
Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
许多人会在你的生活中进进出出，但只有真正的朋友才会在你的心中留下脚印。
True friends are those who love you not in spite of your faults and imperfections, but because of them.
真正的朋友不是因为你的缺点和不完美而爱你，而是因为他们。
Good friends are like stars. You don't always see them, but you know they're always there.
好朋友就像星星。你并不总是能看到他们，但你知道他们总是在那里。
Even the strongest man needs friends.
即使是最强壮的人也需要朋友。
Most of my actor friends don't believe it's possible to let go of it and be happy, and for a while that was true for me. For the first two years I ached, every day. And I had such bad dreams. But then I made the decision to start working on my little shop and all that went away.
我的大多数演员朋友都不相信放手就能快乐起来，有一段时间我就是这么认为的。头两年我每天都很痛苦。我做了这么糟糕的梦。但后来我决定开始我的小店的工作，所有这些都消失了。
