A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
重要
Important
As I've always said, preproduction is so important. When you cast the actors, you've done much of the work. Now, you may need to guide them a little, take it up or down, have them go faster or slower, but the casting process is crucial.
正如我一直说的,前期制作非常重要。当你选演员的时候,你已经做了很多工作。现在,你可能需要引导他们一点,向上或向下,让他们走得更快或更慢,但铸造过程是至关重要的。
The most important precedents deal with the whole idea of symbolic programming - the notion of setting up symbolic expressions that can represent anything one wants, and then having functions that operate on both their structure and content.

When you're dead, you're dead. No one is going to remember me when I'm dead. Oh, maybe a few friends will remember me affectionately. Being remembered isn't the most important thing, anyhow. It's what you do when you are here that's important.
当你死了,你就死了。我死后没人会记得我。哦,也许几个朋友会深情地记得我。无论如何,被人记住并不是最重要的。重要的是你在这里做什么。
If you can react the same way to winning and losing, that's a big accomplishment. That quality is important because it stays with you the rest of your life, and there's going to be a life after tennis that's a lot longer than your tennis life.

It is especially important to encourage unorthodox thinking when the situation is critical: At such moments every new word and fresh thought is more precious than gold. Indeed, people must not be deprived of the right to think their own thoughts.
尤其重要的是,当形势危急时,鼓励非正统思维:在这种时刻,每一个新单词和新思想都比黄金更宝贵。的确,不能剥夺人们思考自己想法的权利。
One thing I think kids need to do is more chores, and take care of their own rooms. Responsibilities are really important to start them with. If they have animals, they have to feed them and care for them. That's the only way I think I could do it.
我认为孩子们需要做的一件事是做更多的家务,并照顾好自己的房间。开始的时候,责任真的很重要。如果他们有动物,他们必须喂养和照顾他们。这是我唯一能做的。
