A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
增长
Growth
I believe we should reframe our response to climate change as an imperative for growth rather than merely being a way of being green or meeting environmental commitments.
我认为,我们应该把应对气候变化重新定位为增长的当务之急,而不仅仅是一种环保或履行环境承诺的方式。
I forgive myself for not being perfect. I recognize we're all not perfect. I am open to forgiving others. I value persistence insights and growth far more than perfection.
我原谅自己不够完美。我知道我们都不是完美的。我愿意原谅别人。比起完美,我更看重持久的洞察力和成长。
True guilt is guilt at the obligation one owes to oneself to be oneself. False guilt is guilt felt at not being what other people feel one ought to be or assume that one is.
真正的内疚是对自己应尽的义务感到内疚。假内疚感是由于自己没有成为别人认为自己应该成为的人,或者没有成为别人认为自己应该成为的人而产生的内疚感。
Rapid population growth and technological innovation, combined with our lack of understanding about how the natural systems of which we are a part work, have created a mess.
快速的人口增长和技术创新,再加上我们对我们所处的自然系统如何运作缺乏了解,造成了一场混乱。
The time was not yet ripe for the growth of mathematical science among us, and any development that might have taken place in that direction was rudely stopped by the civil war.
数学科学在我们中间发展的时机还不成熟,任何朝着这个方向可能发生的发展都被内战粗暴地制止了。
For me, the most fun is change or growth. There are definitely elements of both that I like. Launching a business is kind of like a motorboat: You can go very quickly and turn fast.
对我来说,最有趣的是改变或成长。两者都有我喜欢的元素。创业就像一艘摩托艇:你可以开得很快,也可以转得很快。
Too often, our minds are locked on one track. We are looking for red-so we overlook blue. Many Nobel prizes have been washed down the drain because someone did not expect the unexpected.
太多时候,我们的思想被锁定在一个轨道上。我们在找红色,所以忽略了蓝色。许多诺贝尔奖都被白白浪费了,因为有人没有预料到会发生意想不到的事。
Growth is measured by the gentleness and awareness with which we once again pick ourselves up... The openess with which we take the next unknown step... Into the remarkable mystery of being.
成长是由温柔和意识来衡量的,我们再次用这些温柔和意识来振作自己。我们迈出未知下一步的开放性……进入存在的神秘世界。
I really don't know how to be anyone else, and whenever I try to be anyone else, I fail miserably. Or I disappoint myself. It doesn't build my self-esteem, and it doesn't help me grow me at all.
我真的不知道如何成为别人,每当我试图成为别人的时候,我都失败得很惨。或者我让自己失望了。它不能建立我的自尊,也不能帮助我成长。
Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth. To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one's potential.
当我还是个孩子的时候,我就有一种本能的渴望去扩展和成长。对我来说,一个优秀的人的功能和责任是真诚和诚实地开发一个人的潜力。
The problem with a purely collective system is not only that it requires economic growth, and the right sort of demographic trends, but that it prevents people thinking about their futures in a responsible way.
一个纯粹的集体体系的问题不仅在于它需要经济增长和正确的人口趋势,还在于它阻止人们以负责任的方式思考自己的未来。
Economic growth creates jobs, and countries grow when they educate their people and pursue policies that encourage households to save, existing businesses to invest, and entrepreneurs to innovate and create new markets.
经济增长创造就业机会,当国家教育人民并推行鼓励家庭储蓄、现有企业投资、企业家创新和创造新市场的政策时,国家才会增长。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Enough shovels of earth make a mountain, enough pails of water a river.
有足够的铲子,就有足够的山;有足够的桶,就有足够的水,就有足够的河。
What does music mean to me? I don't think I would really be much without it, without it coming through me. It's my means of communication, my means of growth, my means of transportation from one point in my life to another.
音乐对我来说意味着什么?我想如果没有它,如果没有它,我不会有什么成就。这是我的交流方式,是我成长的方式,是我从生命中的一个点到另一个点的交通工具。
Globalization and free trade do spur economic growth, and they lead to lower prices on many goods.
全球化和自由贸易确实刺激了经济增长,并导致许多商品的价格下降。
People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates.
人们常说这个或那个人还没有找到自己。但是自我不是一个人发现的东西,而是一个人创造的东西。
Globalization presumes sustained economic growth. Otherwise, the process loses its economic benefits and political support.
全球化假定经济持续增长。否则,这一进程将失去其经济利益和政治支持。
The past should be a springboard, not a hammock.
过去应该是跳板,而不是吊床。
