A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

接受

Accept

There is no man more dangerous, in a position of power, than he who refuses to accept as a working truth the idea that all a man does should make for rightness and soundness, that even the fixing of a tariff rate must be moral.

如果一个人认为一个人所做的一切都应该是正确和可靠的,即使是确定一个关税税率也必须是合乎道德的,那么他拒绝接受这一观点,认为这是一个处于权力地位的人所面临的最大危险。

You see, I have in my teaching - I always say I've done it for a hundred years and have had thousands of students - I have always spoken against just falling onto your knees for so-called accidents, I mean a result you are not responsible for.

你看,在我的教学中——我总是说我已经做了一百年了,我有成千上万的学生——我总是说,不要因为所谓的意外事故而跪倒在地,我的意思是说,你不必为此负责。

I don't worry about it because we are all growing old. If I were the only one I would worry. But we're all in the same boat, and all of my friends are coming with me. We all go toward old age. How many years left we don't know. We just have to accept it.

我不担心,因为我们都在变老。如果我是唯一一个我会担心的人。但是我们大家处境相同,我所有的朋友都跟我一起去。我们都在走向老年。我们不知道还有多少年。我们必须接受它。

To illustrate what I mean, an apt dancer may be in thorough unison with the others in that particular group, and at the same time reveal a difference in dancing temperament, rhythm or technique; she may phrase, accentuate or actually interpret differently.

为了说明我的意思,一个灵巧的舞者可能与那个特定群体中的其他人完全一致,同时揭示出舞蹈的气质、节奏或技术上的差异;她可能措辞、强调或实际上解释不同。

KEEP EXPLORING

沿着这个主题,再读几句。

Everybody struggles with being an oddball. It's tough trying to fit in when you're a kid; then you become an adult and you think, 'I'm just going to be myself and either they accept it or they don't.' But you know what? I like me, and that's the most important thing.

每个人都在努力成为一个怪人。当你还是个孩子的时候,想要融入社会是很困难的;然后你长大成人,你想,‘我要做我自己,他们要么接受,要么不接受。“但是你知道吗?”我喜欢我自己,这是最重要的。

A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT

给此刻的你,一点向前的力量。
