A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
讲座
Lectures
I didn't go to the lectures. My valet, who was more distinguished than I, went instead.
我没有去听讲座。我的男仆比我高贵，他代替我去了。
I never lecture, not because I am shy or a bad speaker, but simply because I detest the sort of people who go to lectures and don't want to meet them.
我从不讲课，不是因为我害羞或不善言辞，而是因为我讨厌那种去上课却不想见他们的人。
This is unusual for me. I have given readings and not lectures. I have told people who ask for lectures that I have no lecture to give. And that is true.
这对我来说很不寻常。我做过阅读，没有做过讲座。我告诉过那些想听讲座的人，我没有课要讲。这是真的。
