A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
巨人
Giants
The Giants were a good team, but our biggest enemy was said to be Candlestick Park.
巨人队是一支强队,但我们最大的敌人据说是烛台公园。
If I have not seen as far as others, it is because giants were standing on my shoulders.
如果说我没有像别人看得那么远,那是因为巨人站在我的肩膀上。
It is the mark of a great man that he puts to flight all ordinary calculations. He is at once sublime and touching, childlike and of the race of giants.
这是一个伟人的标志,他把一切平凡的算计都付诸行动。他既崇高又感人,既孩子气又有巨人的血统。
Scientists do stand on the shoulders of giants, just as do writers. Conversely, in the arts we do make discoveries. We do refine our tools. So I am arguing with, or at least playing with, the idea that art never improves.
科学家确实站在巨人的肩膀上,就像作家一样。相反,在艺术方面,我们确实有所发现。我们确实在改进我们的工具。所以我反对,或者至少是玩弄,艺术永远不会进步的观点。
