A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

重要

Important

When I was about to break a world record and become well known, my mother used to say that for her the important thing was for me to become a doctor - a career which had not been possible in her generation and in her society. Sport was something to be set aside.

当我即将打破一项世界纪录,成名时,我母亲常说,对她来说,最重要的事情是成为一名医生——在她那一代人和她的社会里,这是不可能的。体育运动是应该放在一边的。

There are a couple of things that I'm sure people don't think are important, but I do. I don't like hair changes unless there's a reason for it. Clothing - I don't like to see an outfit worn more than one time in an hour - you can wear it again a few weeks later.

有几件事我确信人们不认为重要,但我认为重要。我不喜欢头发变了,除非有原因。衣服——我不喜欢看到一件衣服在一个小时内穿了不止一次——你可以在几周后再穿一次。

A lot of the changes are so gradual that they don't even qualify as news, or even as interesting: they're so mundane that we just take them for granted. But history shows that it's the mundane changes that are more important than the dramatic 'newsworthy' events.

很多变化都是循序渐进的,它们甚至不算是新闻,甚至不像新闻那么有趣:它们是如此平凡,以至于我们把它们视为理所当然。但历史表明,平凡的变化比戏剧性的“新闻价值”事件更重要。

Follow the path of the unsafe, independent thinker. Expose your ideas to the dangers of controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the label of 'crackpot' than the stigma of conformity. And on issues that seem important to you, stand up and be counted at any cost.

走不安全、独立的思想者之路。把你的想法暴露在争论的危险中。说出你的想法,不要害怕被贴上“疯子”的标签,而要害怕从众的污名。在你认为重要的问题上,挺身而出,不惜任何代价。

Get that right, then- if you get the quality right, then the marketability or whatever; your ability to sell videos or your ability to earn money or whatever, will follow naturally. But try to be creatively lead rather than market lead. And that's important to me.

做对了,如果你做对了质量,然后市场性或其他;你销售视频的能力或者你赚钱的能力,都会自然而然地随之而来。但要努力成为创造性的领导者,而不是市场领导者。这对我很重要。

We have as many planes of speech as does a painting planes of perspective which create perspective in a phrase. The most important word stands out most vividly defined in the very foreground of the sound plane. Less important words create a series of deeper planes.

我们有很多层面的演讲,就像绘画层面的透视,创造一个短语的透视。最重要的单词在声音平面的前景中表现得最为生动。不那么重要的单词创造了一系列更深层次的词汇。

Both dreams and myths are important communications from ourselves to ourselves. If we do not understand the language in which they are written, we miss a great deal of what we know and tell ourselves in those hours when we are not busy manipulating the outside world.

梦和神话都是我们与自己之间重要的交流。如果我们不理解他们所写的语言,我们就会错过很多我们所知道的,并在我们不忙于操纵外部世界的时候告诉自己。

We should not use special budget procedures to jam through legislation to drill in the Arctic Refuge. This topic is too important to the public to address it in such a back-door manner. We should be having a full, open discussion of the issue during an energy debate.

我们不应利用特别预算程序强行通过立法在北极保护区进行钻探。这个话题对公众太重要了,不能用这种不公开的方式来讨论。我们应该在能源辩论中对这个问题进行全面、公开的讨论。

We found out tonight how important and how crucial momentum swings can be. I thought we were playing very well. We were doing a lot of positive things but then we lost the puck two times in our zone and things swung their way. You can't afford to give teams momentum.

今晚我们发现了动量波动的重要性和重要性。我认为我们打得很好。我们做了很多积极的事情,但后来我们两次在禁区内丢了球,事情发生了转机。你不能给团队动力。

Why are we here? I think many people assume, wrongly, that a company exists solely to make money. Money is an important part of a company's existence, if the company is any good. But a result is not a cause. We have to go deeper and find the real reason for our being.

我们为什么在这里?我认为,许多人错误地认为,公司的存在只是为了赚钱。如果一个公司是好的,钱是它存在的一个重要部分。但结果不是原因。我们必须走得更深,找到我们存在的真正原因。

I'm ambitious but I'm not particularly competitive. I'll try to get roles, as I think it's healthy to go for things, but... I think there's too much competition between women already. It's important to have female solidarity and support each other and other actresses.

我有野心,但我不是特别有竞争力。我会试着找个角色,因为我认为追求一些东西是健康的,但是……我认为女性之间的竞争已经太激烈了。重要的是要有女性的团结和支持彼此和其他女演员。
