A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
听
Listening
Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.
休息不是懒惰，夏天有时躺在树下的草地上，听着潺潺的流水声，或看着云朵飘过天空，这绝不是浪费时间。
Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me... Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.
听着，孩子。听那些不应该做的事。听那些不应该的，不可能的，不愿意的。倾听那些从未拥有的，然后靠近我…什么事都有可能发生，孩子。什么都可以。
The paradox of Steve Jobs's career is that he had no interest in listening to consumers - he was famously dismissive of market research - yet nonetheless had an amazing sense of what consumers actually wanted.
史蒂夫•乔布斯职业生涯的矛盾之处在于，他对倾听消费者的需求毫无兴趣——众所周知，他对市场研究不屑一顾——然而，他对消费者真正想要什么有着惊人的感觉。
Learning is a result of listening, which in turn leads to even better listening and attentiveness to the other person. In other words, to learn from the child, we must have empathy, and empathy grows as we learn.
学习是倾听的结果，而倾听又能让你更好地倾听和关注他人。换句话说，要向孩子学习，我们必须有同理心，同理心随着我们的学习而增长。
When I speak of the gifted listener, I am thinking of the nonmusician primarily, of the listener who intends to retain his amateur status. It is the thought of just such a listener that excites the composer in me.
当我说到有天赋的听众时，我首先想到的是那些不懂音乐的人，那些想要保持业余状态的听众。正是这样一个听众的想法让我内心深处的作曲家激动不已。
My husband works in the music industry and he's always the first to know about great new bands, so I end up seeming really with it because I'll be listening to an up-and-coming band before everyone else hears about it.
我的丈夫在音乐行业工作，他总是第一个知道伟大的新乐队，所以我最终看起来真的很喜欢它，因为我会在别人听到一个很有前途的乐队之前听他们的歌。
Listening is such a simple act. It requires us to be present, and that takes practice, but we don't have to do anything else. We don't have to advise, or coach, or sound wise. We just have to be willing to sit there and listen.
倾听是如此简单的行为。它要求我们活在当下，这需要练习，但我们不需要做其他任何事情。我们不需要建议、指导或听起来很明智。我们只需要愿意坐在那里倾听。
Every man is different. You can't generalize with men; you have to find out what your man wants. You have to listen to him when he's telling you what he wants, because a lot of times they're telling you, but you're not listening.
每个人都不一样。你不能对男人一概而论;你得弄清楚你的男人想要什么。当他告诉你他想要什么的时候，你必须听他说，因为很多时候他们告诉你，你却不听。
There's nothing worse - I don't like listening to actors talk about the process, especially when - I mean, for me I've played a lot of guys, dudes, boys in a sense and this was a challenge for me just to play that official character.
没有什么比这更糟糕的了——我不喜欢听演员们谈论这个过程，尤其是当——我的意思是，对我来说，在某种意义上，我扮演过很多男人、男人、男孩，而仅仅扮演那个官方角色对我来说就是一个挑战。
I try to forget about the expectation that's out there and the audience listening for the next thing so that I'm not trying to please them. I've spent a huge amount of time not communicating with those folks and denying that they exist.
我试着忘记外面的期望和听众对下一件事的期待，这样我就不会试图取悦他们。我花了大量时间不与这些人交流，否认他们的存在。
You can practice deep listening in order to relieve the suffering in us, and in the other person. That kind of listening is described as compassionate listening. You listen only for the purpose of relieving suffering in the other person.
你可以练习深度倾听，以减轻我们和他人的痛苦。这种倾听被称为富有同情心的倾听。你倾听只是为了减轻别人的痛苦。
I think a lot of the instincts you have doing comedy are really the same for doing drama, in that it's essentially about listening. The way I approach comedy, is you have to commit to everything as if it's a dramatic role, meaning you play it straight.
我认为你做喜剧的很多本能和做戏剧是一样的，因为它本质上是关于倾听的。我对待喜剧的方式是，你必须全身心投入，就像它是一个戏剧性的角色，也就是说你要把它演好。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
This listening is that which will facilitate the patient's telling of his tale, the telling that can set him free.
这种倾听有助于病人讲述他的故事，这种讲述能让他获得自由。
Listening is a magnetic and strange thing, a creative force. The friends who listen to us are the ones we move toward. When we are listened to, it creates us, makes us unfold and expand.
倾听是一种吸引人的奇怪的东西，一种创造力。倾听我们的朋友是我们亲近的人。当我们被倾听时，它创造了我们，使我们展开和扩展。
Seek first to understand, then to be understood.Most people do not listen with the intent to understand: they listen with the intent to reply. They’re filtering everything through their own paradigms, reading their autobiography into other people’s lives.
先寻求理解，再寻求被理解。大多数人倾听的目的不是为了理解，而是为了回应。他们通过自己的范例来过滤一切，把自己的自传读给别人听。
One of the best ways of keeping your temper in an argument, as most of us know only too well, is not to listen to anything the other person has to say.

I grew up listening to show tunes in the back of the car.
我是听着车后座的音乐长大的。
