A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
重要
Important
That by listening to some music, by reading some books, by looking at paintings, and most important by hanging out with one another - by collaborating with one another and creating your own network - you can achieve something that is much better than what is out there.
通过听一些音乐，读一些书，看一些画，最重要的是和彼此出去玩——通过互相合作，建立自己的网络——你可以实现一些比外面更好的东西。
Looking ahead, I believe that the underlying importance of higher education, of science, of technology, of research and scholarship to our quality of life, to the strength of our economy, to our security in many dimensions will continue to be the most important message.
展望未来，我相信，高等教育、科学、技术、研究和学术对我们的生活质量、经济实力和我们在许多方面的安全的潜在重要性将继续是最重要的信息。
Listening to what people were saying wasn't even important. But it was important to look as if you were listening to what people were saying. Actually, listening to what people are saying, to me, interferes with looking as if you were listening to what people are saying.
听别人说什么甚至不重要。但重要的是要让自己看起来像是在听别人说话。实际上，在我看来，听别人说话会妨碍你看起来像在听别人说话一样。
What is important for kids to learn is that no matter how much money they have, earn, win, or inherit, they need to know how to spend it, how to save it, and how to give it to others in need. This is what handling money is about, and this is why we give kids an allowance.
对孩子们来说，重要的是要知道，无论他们有多少钱、赚多少钱、赢了多少钱、继承了多少钱，他们都需要知道如何花掉这些钱，如何存起来，以及如何把这些钱送给需要帮助的人。这就是理财的意义所在，也是我们给孩子们零用钱的原因。
Nothing else matters much -- not wealth, nor learning, nor even health -- without this gift: the spiritual capacity to keep zest in living. This is the creed of creeds, the final deposit and distillation of all important faiths: that you should be able to believe in life.
没有这一天赋——保持生活热情的精神能力，没有什么比财富、学识甚至健康更重要的了。这是信条的信条，是所有重要信仰的最终沉淀和升华:你应该能够相信生活。
I think the most important thing you can do is to keep drawing no matter what. And to not be afraid of drawing whatever interests you. If there is something that you want to draw, to make, then I think you should pursue it and not let anybody tell you that you can't do it.
我认为你能做的最重要的事情就是无论如何都要坚持画画。不要害怕画任何你感兴趣的东西。如果你有什么想画的，想做的，那么我认为你应该追求它，不要让任何人告诉你你做不到。
If there's one thing i've learned in life, it's to fight. Fight for what's right. Fight for what you believe in, what's important to you. But most importantly, fight for the once you love, and never forget to tell anyone how much they mean to you while they're still alive.
如果我在生活中学到了一件事，那就是战斗。为正义而战。为你的信仰而战，为对你重要的东西而战。但最重要的是，为你曾经爱过的人而奋斗，永远不要忘记在他们活着的时候告诉他们对你有多重要。
If I could sew comedy and philosophy together, then I've done a good job. The primary goal is always going to be laughs and the secondary goal is always going to be saying something without it being a lecture. I think it's important to have substance for what you're saying.
如果我能把喜剧和哲学结合起来，那我已经做得很好了。首要的目标永远是笑，次要的目标永远是说点什么，而不是说教。我认为你说的话要有实质内容是很重要的。
I try not to get too rattled about things that aren't that important - there's a different outburst for when the kids are reaching for a knife in the kitchen versus the reaction I have when they just won't stop talking. And my wife and I have mellowed out as we've gone along.
我尽量不去为那些不那么重要的事情感到慌乱——当孩子们在厨房里拿刀的时候，我的情绪会爆发，而当他们不停地说话的时候，我的情绪会爆发。我和妻子在一起的时候变得成熟了。
Charity work is very important to me and gives me an opportunity to give back to my community. I've always been a big supporter of many different charities, have donated millions of dollars to them, and it just feels great to do and be able to help others, especially children.
慈善工作对我来说非常重要，给了我一个机会去回馈我的社区。我一直是许多不同慈善机构的大力支持者，向他们捐赠了数百万美元，能够帮助他人，尤其是儿童，我感到非常高兴。
People think that the arts are optional and they aren't. They teach a level of emotional depth that's equally important to mathematic skill. You can replace some math skills with a calculator if you know how to operate the thing, but there's no calculator for human interaction.
人们认为艺术是可选的，但事实并非如此。他们教给学生一定程度的情感深度，这对数学技能同样重要。如果你知道如何操作计算器，你可以用它来代替一些数学技能，但是没有计算器来进行人机交互。
I could go away five or six weeks in a row and never touch a club. I would just look at them and say, 'I just don't want to; it's not that important.' And it wasn't that important. Golf - I don't want to answer loosely - I pay a lot of attention to it, but I don't ever really think about it.
我可以连续五到六个星期不碰球杆。我会看着他们说，‘我只是不想;没有那么重要。这并不重要。高尔夫球——我不想随便回答——我很关注它，但我从来没有真正想过它。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I believe in marriage. I believe marriage is a really important institution, it's one of the most important institutions we have.
我相信婚姻。我认为婚姻是一个非常重要的制度，它是我们拥有的最重要的制度之一。
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。
These are books that want to be read out loud. These are books kids share with each other, and I think that's important.
这些书需要大声读出来。这些书是孩子们互相分享的，我认为这很重要。
It seems essential, in relationships and all tasks, that we concentrate only on what is most significant and important.
在人际关系和所有任务中，我们似乎必须只专注于最重要的事情。
It is so important that you don't stay with someone just for the children and for the wrong reasons.
重要的是，你不能为了孩子和错误的理由而和某人呆在一起。
Never cut a tree down in the wintertime. Never make a negative decision in the low time. Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass. The spring will come.
冬天不要砍树。不要在情绪低落的时候做出消极的决定。永远不要在你心情最糟的时候做最重要的决定。等待。要有耐心。暴风雨会过去的。春天就要来了。
