A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
人类
Humans
Humans are imperfect. That's one of the reasons that classical and jazz are in trouble. We're on the quest for the perfect performance and every note has to be right. Man, every note is not right in life.
人类是不完美的。这就是古典音乐和爵士乐陷入困境的原因之一。我们在追求完美的性能,每一个音符都必须是正确的。伙计,生活中的每一个音符都不正确。
My stories are about humans and how they react, or fail to react, or react stupidly. I'm pointing the finger at us, not at the zombies. I try to respect and sympathize with the zombies as much as possible.
我的故事是关于人类的,关于他们如何反应,或者没有反应,或者反应愚蠢。我指的是我们,不是僵尸。我尽量尊重和同情僵尸。
At which point should we let go and do what we want to do, and when should we submit to rules? Coming to terms with our true natures and who we really are has always been a fascination to humans. I know it fascinates me.
在什么时候我们应该放手去做我们想做的,什么时候我们应该服从规则?对人类来说,认清自己的本性和真实的自我一直是一件令人着迷的事情。我知道它让我着迷。
I think the future of this planet depends on humans, not technology, and we already have the knowledge - we're kind of at the endgame with knowledge. But we're nowhere near the endgame when it comes to our perception. We still have one foot in the dark ages.
我认为这个星球的未来取决于人类,而不是技术,我们已经拥有了知识——我们已经接近知识的终点。但就我们的认知而言,我们离终点还很远。我们在黑暗时代还有一只脚。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Since we humans have the better brain, isn't it our responsibility to protect our fellow creatures from, oddly enough, ourselves?
既然我们人类有更好的大脑,难道我们就没有责任保护我们的同伴免受我们自己的伤害吗?
The marks humans leave are too often scars. -The fault in our stars.
人类留下的痕迹往往是伤疤。-我们星球的错。
My zombies will never take over the world because I need the humans. The humans are the ones I dislike the most, and they're where the trouble really lies.
我的僵尸永远不会占领世界,因为我需要人类。人类是我最不喜欢的,他们才是真正的问题所在。
One shouldn't be afraid of the humans. Well, I am not afraid of the humans, but of what is inhuman in them.
一个人不应该害怕人类。嗯,我并不害怕人类,而是害怕他们身上的非人之处。
I'd like to think humans have a stronger sense of justice than the random forces of nature do.
我认为人类的正义感比自然的随机力量更强。
Your car should drive itself. It's amazing to me that we let humans drive cars... It's a bug that cars were invented before computers.
你的车应该自己开。我们让人类开车,这对我来说太神奇了……汽车发明于计算机之前,这是一个错误。
