A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

My dad had been an actor... not only had my dad been an actor, but his dad had been an actor, and my great-grandfather had been an actor. And who knows before then?
我爸爸曾经是个演员……我的父亲不仅是个演员,他的父亲也是个演员,我的曾祖父也是个演员。在那之前谁知道呢?
Um, you know, they have every right to feel the way they do and things are great with me, as you see, I'm very, good shape now and on the ball. Things are happening.
嗯,你知道,他们完全有权利去感受他们的方式,和我相处得很好,正如你所看到的,我现在很好,状态很好,也很活跃。正在发生的事情。
The mountain music... is compelling music in its own right, harking back to a time when music was a part of everyday life and not something performed by celebrities.
山音乐…音乐本身就是一种引人注目的音乐,让人回想起音乐成为日常生活的一部分,而不是由名人表演的东西的那个时代。
Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.

It's populated by people who, by and large, have terrific communication skills. Every day is an extraordinary day. For me, it was just a great area for storytelling.
这里的人基本上都有很好的沟通技巧。每一天都是不平凡的。对我来说,这是一个讲故事的好地方。
The great corporations of this country were not founded by ordinary people. They were founded by people with extraordinary intelligence, ambition, and aggressiveness.
这个国家的大公司不是由普通人创建的。他们是由具有非凡智慧、雄心和进取心的人建立的。
I wasn't always such a great fan of Shakespeare, mind you. I can guess we all at one time had it rammed down our necks at school, which tends to take the edge off it.
提醒你,我并不总是那么喜欢莎士比亚。我猜我们都曾经在学校里把它硬塞进脖子里,这样就不会那么紧张了。

Time is not a great healer. It is an indifferent and perfunctory one. Sometimes it does not heal at all. And sometimes when it seems to, no healing has been necessary.

While I've had a great distaste for what's usually called song in modern poetry or for what's usually called music, I really don't think of speech as so far from song.

I would tell anyone who wants something from someone else to feign not wanting it. People are perverse. If you show great affection to them, they'll run the other way.
我会告诉任何想从别人那里得到东西的人,要假装不想要。人是不正当的。如果你对他们表现出极大的感情,他们就会反过来。
I do not say think as I think, but think in my way. Fear no shadows, least of all in that great spectre of personal unhappiness which binds half the world to orthodoxy.
我不是说想就想,而是用我的方式思考。不要害怕阴影,尤其是那种把半个世界都束缚在正统观念上的巨大的个人不幸幽灵。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.

“我旅行不是为了去任何地方,而是为了去。我旅行是为了旅行。最重要的是搬家。”

It takes a great deal of courage to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.

The first time I ever recorded, which was into my boom-box, I was like, 'Wow, check that out.' It sounded great. The narcotic of it was so intense - it was pleasurable. I was like, 'You sound like a band.' Then I ended up spending the rest of my life trying to chase that initial high again.
我第一次录音的时候,是在我的录音机里。听起来很棒。它的麻醉作用是如此强烈,令人愉悦。我说,‘你听起来像个乐队。然后,我的余生都在试图再次追逐那最初的快感。
