A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
孩子们
Kids
The Internet has given atheists, agnostics, skeptics, the people who like to destroy everything that you and I believe, the almost equal access to your kids as your youth pastor and you have... whether you like it or not.
互联网给了无神论者、不可知论者、怀疑论者、那些喜欢破坏你和我所相信的一切的人，给了你和你的孩子几乎平等的机会，就像你和你的青年牧师一样……不管你喜不喜欢。
The idea that you have a vision of what you're supposed to be, or going to be, or where your kids are going to be - and that that doesn't work out - is always going to be something that's going to affect people and move people.
你对自己应该成为什么样的人、将要成为什么样的人，或者你的孩子将来会在哪里有一个愿景——但这并不奏效——这种想法总是会影响人们，让人们感动。
But you know, there's something about the kids finishing their homework in a given day, working one-on-one, getting all this attention - they go home, they're finished. They don't stall, they don't do their homework in front of the TV.
但是你知道，孩子们在某一天完成了他们的家庭作业，一对一的工作，得到所有的关注——他们回家，他们完成了。他们不会拖延，他们不会在电视机前做作业。
These days kids get paid enough that they probably don't need to work too much. The problem is when the person is old enough that they need to work to make a living, and the only thing that they know how to do is what they are already washed up in.
现在，孩子们的工资已经足够了，他们可能不需要工作太多。问题是，当一个人到了一定年龄，需要工作谋生的时候，他们唯一知道怎么做的事情就是他们已经被淘汰了。
There can never be any excuse for sacrificing our childrens futures to keep corporate tax loopholes and tax giveaways to millionaires. If we cant put our children first, who can we put first? If we cant put our kids first, what does it say about our nation?
永远不能有任何借口牺牲我们孩子的未来来保持公司税收漏洞和对百万富翁的减税。如果我们不能把孩子放在第一位，我们能把谁放在第一位呢?如果我们不能把孩子放在首位，这对我们的国家意味着什么?
Sometimes it was difficult to make friends and be social in school because I was always practicing while other kids were getting together and doing things. But it just made me closer to my family, and I realized that they would always be there no matter what.
有时在学校里很难交到朋友和社交，因为我总是在其他孩子聚在一起做事情的时候练习。但这让我和家人更亲近，我意识到无论发生什么，他们永远都会在那里。
I understand and get when kids and teenagers feel like they're alone and it's not going to get better. My advice is that there is a support system out there, there are a lot of people who have been through what you're going through and are going through it now.
当孩子和青少年觉得他们是孤独的，而且情况不会好转时，我能理解并理解他们的感受。我的建议是，有一个支持系统，有很多人都经历过你现在正在经历的事情。
I have had wrinkles on my forehead and my smile line since I was a kid. I see them in my own kids. I know what they're going to look like. So it's kind of like that's my personality. I feel the older you get, too, the more confident you become just in your own skin.
我的前额有皱纹，我的微笑线，因为我是一个孩子。我在我自己的孩子身上看到了这些。我知道它们会是什么样子。这就是我的性格。我觉得随着年龄的增长，你也会变得越来越自信。
Dad needs to show an incredible amount of respect and humor and friendship toward his mate so the kids understand their parents are sexy, they're fun, they do things together, they're best friends. Kids learn by example. If I respect Mom, they're going to respect Mom.
爸爸需要对他的伴侣表现出令人难以置信的尊重、幽默和友谊，这样孩子们才能理解他们的父母是性感的，他们很有趣，他们一起做事，他们是最好的朋友。孩子们以身作则。如果我尊重妈妈，他们也会尊重妈妈。
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。
The best way to create a genuine "responsibility era" -- a genuine commitment to families and to the values they reflect -- is to begin with those to whom we owe the greatest responsibility -- those whom we most value -- our kids. Let's not just talk about it -- let's put kids first.
要创造一个真正的“责任时代”——对家庭及其所反映的价值观作出真正的承诺——最好的方法是从那些我们应该承担最大责任的人——那些我们最珍视的人——我们的孩子开始。让我们不只是说说而已——让我们把孩子放在第一位。
I've always been honest with all my kids. So I - if they did well, they did well. And if they didn't, actually, I asked, did you try your best? And if they tried their best, then, you know, I back out because I expect them to be honest with me or with themselves. And I can't make you go out there and work out hard.
我对我所有的孩子都很诚实。所以我——如果他们做得好，他们就做得好。如果他们没有，事实上，我问，你有没有尽你最大的努力?如果他们尽力了，我就会退出，因为我希望他们对我或对他们自己诚实。我不能让你出去努力锻炼。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Kids should practice autographing baseballs. This is a skill that's often overlooked in Little League.
孩子们应该练习给棒球签名。这是一个在小联盟中经常被忽视的技能。
I think all kids need snacks. Mine are fruit machines. I give them things like apple slices, berries and melon. Do I let them eat ice cream? Absolutely. But not every day.
我想所有的孩子都需要零食。我的是水果机。我给他们苹果片，浆果和甜瓜。我让他们吃冰淇淋吗?绝对的。但不是每天都这样。
As kids we're not taught how to deal with success; we're taught how to deal with failure. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. If at first you succeed, then what?
作为孩子，我们没有被教导如何处理成功;我们被教导如何处理失败。如果一开始你没有成功，尝试，再尝试。如果一开始你成功了，然后呢?
I've always slightly worried the kids who play football around my house. They know I'm an actor, but felt sorry for me because they'd never seen anything I've done.
我总是有点担心那些在我家附近踢足球的孩子。他们知道我是个演员，但对我感到遗憾，因为他们从来没有看过我演的任何戏。
This is the culture you're raising your kids in. Don't be surprised if it blows up in your face.
这就是你养育孩子的文化。如果它在你面前爆炸，不要感到惊讶。
I love kids. I was a kid myself, once.
我爱孩子。我曾经也是个孩子。
