A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
不完美
Imperfect
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 marriage? Up to now everything's okay. But it's a real marriage - imperfect and very difficult. It's all about people evolving somewhat simultaneously through their lives. I think we've emotionally evolved.
我的婚姻?到目前为止一切都很好。但这是一段真实的婚姻——不完美,非常艰难。这一切都是关于人们在他们的生活中同时进化。我认为我们已经在情感上进化了。
In justice to human society it may perhaps be said of almost all the polities and civil institutions in the world, however imperfect, that they have been founded in and carried on with very considerable wisdom.
