A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
好
Good
Everyone is trying to do something that hasn't been done and that's a really good thing. You can only do so much with a story and some scripts don't give you the opportunities and other scripts do give you the opportunities to do things that haven't been done before.
每个人都在尝试做一些从未做过的事情,这是一件好事。对于一个故事,你只能做这么多,有些剧本不能给你机会,而另一些剧本却能给你机会去做以前没有做过的事情。
Why are we here? I think many people assume, wrongly, that a company exists solely to make money. Money is an important part of a company's existence, if the company is any good. But a result is not a cause. We have to go deeper and find the real reason for our being.
我们为什么在这里?我认为,许多人错误地认为,公司的存在只是为了赚钱。如果一个公司是好的,钱是它存在的一个重要部分。但结果不是原因。我们必须走得更深,找到我们存在的真正原因。
Tramping is too easy with all this money. My days were more exciting when I was penniless and had to forage around for my next meal... I've decided that I'm going to live this life for some time to come. The freedom and simple beauty of it is just too good to pass up.
有这么多钱,走路太容易了。当我身无分文,不得不四处寻找下一顿饭的时候,我的日子更令人兴奋……我已经决定在未来的一段时间里过这种生活。它的自由和朴素之美是如此美好,不容错过。
My youngest daughter sings. She's going to be very good. She's graduated from Music School and she's been working down around and getting her feet wet, you know. I had her out with me for a year just showing her the ropes a little bit, but she's going to be all right.
我最小的女儿唱歌。她会很出色的。她刚从音乐学院毕业,一直在努力工作,你知道的。我让她和我在一起一年了,只是让她了解了一点情况,但是她会好起来的。
When I came back from Bolivia, my Spanish was in some ways as good as my English. I am rusty today. But I am comfortable talking in Spanish. I am not flawless or fluent, but I am comfortable. It takes me a day or two speaking a lot of Spanish to get back into a rhythm.
当我从玻利维亚回来的时候,我的西班牙语在某些方面和我的英语一样好。我今天生疏了。但是我用西班牙语很舒服。我并不完美,也不流利,但是我很舒服。我花了一两天的时间讲了很多西班牙语,才恢复到正常节奏。
But I love the idea - whether it's in my work or where I live - exploring new frontier, and I like putting myself in strange places and trying to survive and figure things out and gather up an infrastructure. I like knowing that I could figure out a way to live anywhere.
但我喜欢这个想法——无论是在我的工作中,还是在我生活的地方——探索新领域,我喜欢把自己置身于陌生的地方,试着生存下来,把事情弄清楚,建立一个基础设施。我喜欢知道我可以在任何地方找到一种生活方式。
One should see the world, and see himself as a scale with an equal balance of good and evil. When he does one good deed the scale is tipped to the good - he and the world is saved. When he does one evil deed the scale is tipped to the bad - he and the world is destroyed.
一个人应该看这个世界,把自己看成是一个善恶平衡的天平。当他做了一件好事,天平就会向好的方向倾斜——他和世界都得救了。当他做了一件坏事时,天平就倾斜到坏的一边——他和世界都毁灭了。
Conscience is doubtless sufficient to conduct the coldest character into the road of virtue; but enthusiasm is to conscience what honor is to duty; there is in us a superfluity of soul, which it is sweet to consecrate to the beautiful when the good has been accomplished.
毫无疑问,良心足以引导最冷酷的人走上美德之路;热情之于良知,犹如荣誉之于责任;我们身上有一种多余的灵魂,当美好的事物完成后,把它奉献给美丽的事物是很甜蜜的。
Tarantino is the coolest damn guy; he's just so much fun to work with. He might be the best director I've ever worked with. He just seems to know how to do it and he knows how to make you feel good about it. He's having so much fun you start having fun. You can't help it.
塔伦蒂诺是最酷的家伙;和他一起工作很有趣。他可能是我合作过的最好的导演。他似乎知道怎么做,他知道怎么让你感觉良好。他玩得很开心,你也开始开心了。你没办法。
The ideals which have lighted me on my way and time after time given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Truth, Goodness, and Beauty. . . . The ordinary objects of human endeavour -- property, outward success, luxury -- have always seemed to me contemptible.
有些理想曾为我们引过道路,并不断给我新的勇气以欣然面对人生,那些理想就是真、善和美……在我看来,人类奋斗的普通目标——财产、表面上的成功、奢侈——总是可鄙的。
I've done my best to work from a place of humility - always looking over your shoulder saying, "Does this suck?" and I think that's a good way to work. The other way to work is where you start to think, "I'm on fire, I'm amazing!" and I don't think that's the way to work.
我已经尽我最大的努力在一个谦逊的地方工作——总是看着你的肩膀说,“这很糟糕吗?”我认为这是一个很好的工作方式。另一种工作方式是你开始想,“我着火了,我太棒了!”我不认为这是工作的方式。
I think that when you are in the limelight it is part of your obligation to be a good role model. A lot of kids look up to you, and you are given a God-given talent, so it is your responsibility. It isn't hard to deal with. I never have to think twice about doing anything.
我认为,当你成为众人瞩目的焦点时,你有义务成为一个好的榜样。很多孩子都很尊敬你,你有天赋,所以这是你的责任。这并不难处理。我做任何事都不必再三考虑。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
A man is born alone and dies alone; and he experiences the good and bad consequences of his karma alone; and he goes alone to hell or the Supreme abode.
人生而孤独,死而孤独;他独自经历了因果报应的善与恶;他一个人去地狱或至尊居所。
A good picture is equivalent to a good deed.
一幅好画等于一件好事。
Look at growth, look at how much time people spend on the Net and look at the variety of things that they are doing. It's all really good, so I am actually encouraged by the fundamentals that underlie usage growth on the Net.
看看增长,看看人们花在网络上的时间,看看他们正在做的各种各样的事情。这一切都非常好,所以我实际上受到了互联网使用量增长的基本原理的鼓舞。
Don't be dismayed by good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.
不要因为再见而沮丧。在你们再次见面之前,有必要道别一下。对于那些朋友来说,在片刻或一生之后再次相见是确定无疑的。
I used to beat myself up about weight and working out, and no matter what I did I never felt good about myself. I decided to accept myself and know that I am good.
我曾经因为体重和锻炼而痛打自己,无论我做什么,我从来没有对自己感觉良好。我决定接受自己,我知道我很好。
Just as tall trees are known by their shadows, so are good men known by their enemies.
正如高大的树木因其阴影而为人所知,好人也因其敌人而为人所知。
