A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
利益
Interests
It's difficult for a young girl like me. Because there's a certain time for young actresses, which is like a really juicy period when all the parts are love interests and young heroines. Of course, there's always work for men whatever age they are.
对我这样的年轻女孩来说很难。因为对于年轻女演员来说,有一个特定的时期,这是一个非常有趣的时期,所有的角色都是爱情和年轻的女英雄。当然,无论年龄多大,总有适合男人的工作。
There can be no assumption that today's majority is "right" and the Amish and others like them are "wrong." A way of life that is odd or even erratic but interferes with no rights or interests of others is not to be condemned because it is different.
不能假设今天的大多数人是“正确的”,而阿米什人和其他类似的人是“错误的”。一种奇怪甚至不稳定但不干涉他人权益的生活方式不应因其不同而受到谴责。
It will appear evident upon attentive consideration that equality of intellectual and physical advantages is the only sure foundation of liberty, and that such equality may best, and perhaps only, be obtained by a union of interests and cooperation in labor.

We are more thoroughly an enlightened people, with respect to our political interests, than perhaps any other under heaven. Every man among us reads, and is so easy in his circumstances as to have leisure for conversations of improvement and for acquiring information.
就我们的政治利益而言,我们比世界上任何其他民族都更彻底地是一个开明的民族。我们当中的每一个人都读书,在他所处的环境中,读书是如此的容易,以致于有空闲的时间来讨论进步和获取信息。

On the one hand, she is cut off from the protection awarded to her sisters abroad; on the other, she has no such power to defend her interests at the polls, as is the heritage of her brothers at home.
