A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
制作
Make
To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best day and night to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.
在这个日夜竭尽全力把你变成别人的世界上,除了你自己,谁也不是,这意味着要打一场任何人都能打的最艰苦的战斗;永远不要停止战斗。
In fact, I had to make an enormous adjustment to this, not only in listening to it but in playing with it. It's a full sound. In some instances, you must have the volume to get the effect.
事实上,我不得不做出巨大的调整,不仅是在听,而且在玩。这是一个完整的声音。在某些情况下,必须有足够的音量才能达到效果。
I have become my own version of an optimist. If I can't make it through one door, I'll go through another door - or I'll make a door. Something terrific will come no matter how dark the present.
我成了自己版本的乐观主义者。如果我不能通过一扇门,我会通过另一扇门——或者我要做一扇门。无论现在多么黑暗,可怕的事情总会发生。
The more that learn to read the less learn how to make a living. That's one thing about a little education. It spoils you for actual work. The more you know the more you think somebody owes you a living.
学会读书的人越多,学会谋生的人就越少。这是一点教育。它会因为你的实际工作而影响你。你知道的越多,你就越觉得别人欠你的钱越多。
We acknowledge but one motive - to follow the truth as we know it, whithersoever it may lead us; but in our heart of hearts we are well assured that the truth which has made us free, will in the end make us glad also.
我们只承认一个动机,那就是跟随我们所知道的真理,无论真理将我们带到何处;但在我们的内心深处,我们确信使我们自由的真理,最终也会使我们快乐。
A catcher must want to catch. He must make up his mind that it isn't the terrible job it is painted, and that he isn't going to say every day, 'Why, oh why with so many other positions in baseball did I take up this one.'
接球手必须想接球。他必须下定决心,这并不是一份糟糕的工作,他也不会每天都说,‘为什么,哦,为什么我要在棒球界担任这么多其他的职位。’
I protest that if some great Power would agree to make me always think what is true and do what is right, on condition of being turned into a sort of clock and would up every morning before I got out of bed, I should instantly close with the offer.
我抗议说,如果某个大国愿意让我永远思考什么是真的,做什么是对的,条件是把我变成一种时钟,每天早上在我起床之前就起床,那么我就应该立刻结束这个提议。
Given the best of all possible worlds, I would make a few changes. I would place emphasis on increasing the amount of funding that goes into programs like Pell Grants, that purely and simply award funds to students who really cannot afford full tuition.
如果世界是最好的,我会做一些改变。我将强调增加像佩尔助学金这样的项目的资金投入,这纯粹是为那些付不起全额学费的学生提供资金。
It will make a weak man mighty. it will make a mighty man fall. It will fill your heart and hands or leave you with nothing at all. It's the eyes for the blind and legs for the lame. It is the love for hate and pride for shame. That's the power of the gospel.
它会使弱者变得强大。它会使一个勇士倒下。它会填满你的心和手,或者让你一无所有。它是盲人的眼睛,瘸子的腿。这是对仇恨的爱和对耻辱的骄傲。这就是福音的力量。
Small miseries, like small debts, hit us in so many places, and meet us at so many turns and corners, that what they want in weight, they make up in number, and render it less hazardous to stand the fire of one cannon ball, than a volley composed of such a shower of bullets.
小痛苦,像小债务,我们在很多地方,并满足我们很多转身角落,重量,他们想要的东西,他们的数量,并使它更少的有害站一个炮弹的火,凌空组成的这样一个淋浴的子弹。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Some of the onus falls on us to make ourselves available for the ball, because we need to play inside-out. That's when we're at our best.
有些责任落在我们身上,让我们自己可以拿球,因为我们需要打内外线。那是我们最好的时候。
People will stare. Make it worth their while.
人们会盯着看。让他们觉得值得。
It's easy to make a buck. It's a lot tougher to make a difference.
赚钱很容易。做出改变要困难得多。
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.
生活一直都很简单,但是我们也一直都忍不住要把它变得很复杂。
Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.
一旦你做了一个决定,宇宙就会联合起来让它发生。
Don't count the days, make the days count.
不要度日如年,要让每一天都变得有意义。
