A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
使
Making
From the age of six I wanted to be an artist. At that point I meant a painter, but it turned out what I really meant was I was someone who was very interested in watching the world and making copies of it.
从六岁起，我就想成为一名艺术家。当时我指的是画家，但事实证明我真正的意思是我是一个对观察世界和复制世界非常感兴趣的人。
The way to activate the seeds of your creation is by making choices about the results you want to create. When you make a choice, you activate vast human energies and resources, which otherwise go untapped.
激活你创造的种子的方法是选择你想要创造的结果。当你做出选择时，你激活了巨大的人力资源和能量，否则这些资源和能量是无法被利用的。
We incorporate various electronic devices - the echo plugs and things like that. Actually, all we're trying to do is make that sound musical. As opposed to just making sounds, we do musical things with them.
我们整合了各种各样的电子设备——回声插头之类的东西。实际上，我们想做的就是让它听起来像音乐。与仅仅发出声音相反，我们用它们来做音乐。
If people around the world knew how well people at Guantanamo Bay are treating prisoners, they would not fall prey to the accusations that some in our Chamber are making. They are all receiving judicial review.
如果全世界的人都知道关塔纳摩湾的人对囚犯的待遇有多好，他们就不会成为我们会议厅中一些人所提出的指控的牺牲品。他们都在接受司法审查。
I know there are a lot of readers that think I've got a very crappy marriage just because of the things going on with Rick and Lori but there's really nothing that's been like a mirror. I'm just making this stuff up.
我知道有很多读者认为我的婚姻很糟糕仅仅是因为瑞克和洛丽之间发生的事情，但没有什么事情像镜子一样。我只是编出来的。
People come out to see the players. When do you see a manager anyway? When he's out on the field arguing with the umpires, making a fool of himself and you know you can't win, and when he brings out the line-up card.
人们出来看球员。你什么时候见经理?当他在场上和裁判争论，出丑，你知道你赢不了的时候，当他拿出阵容牌的时候。
There is no quick way of making money. People come to you with tips for the races or offer the latest Ponzi scheme, but I can see them coming a mile off. I just go with the adage that if it sounds too good to be true it probably is.
没有快速赚钱的方法。人们会向你提供赛马的提示，或者提供最新的庞氏骗局，但我能预见到他们的到来。
When you have a gown, there's much more to be concerned about. Where is this crease falling? Are you making a weird shape with the dress? Are you doing the designer justice? With a bathing suit, it's more about you and the mood you convey.
当你有了一件礼服，就有更多的事情需要关注。这条折痕在哪里?你是不是把裙子弄成一个奇怪的形状?你对设计师的评价合理吗?有了泳衣，更多的是关于你和你传达的情绪。
I have always been making art from an early age but for nearly forty years did computer programming to earn a living. I bought a house and put my wife and three children through college. Now that diversion is over so I can finally paint full time.
我从小就一直从事艺术创作，但近四十年来一直靠电脑编程谋生。我买了一栋房子，供妻子和三个孩子上大学。现在这种消遣结束了，我终于可以全职画画了。
Everything starts with yourself, with you making up your mind about what you're going to do with your life. I tell kids that it's a cruel world, and that the world will bend them either left or right, and it's up to them to decide which way to bend.
一切都从你自己开始，从你决定你的人生要做什么开始。我告诉孩子们，这是一个残酷的世界，这个世界会让他们向左或向右弯曲，这取决于他们决定向哪个方向弯曲。
Very few people possess true artistic ability. It is therefore both unseemly and unproductive to irritate the situation by making an effort. If you have a burning, restless urge to write or paint, simply eat something sweet and the feeling will pass.
很少有人有真正的艺术才能。因此，通过努力来刺激局势既不合适，也没有效果。如果你有一种强烈的，不安分的写作或绘画的冲动，只要吃点甜食，这种感觉就会过去。
I love how the men stand around cooking the barbie while the women have done all the work beforehand doing the marinade and making the salads and then everybody says, 'what a great barbie' to the guy cooking. A barbecue is just the ultimate blokes' pastime, isn't it?
我喜欢男人们站在旁边做芭比娃娃，而女人们在做腌料和沙拉之前做了所有的工作，然后每个人都对做饭的男人说，“多么棒的芭比娃娃”。烧烤是男人的终极消遣，不是吗?

Major labels didn't start showing up really until they smelled money, and that's all they're ever going to be attracted to is money-that's the business they're in- making money.

I was making so much money I didn't care. I didn't know what to do with the money.

Ultimately, I'm not the most prolific person, but I've been doing this for a long time, and I keep on putting out music. The only thing that drives music is the people who are making it.
最终，我并不是最多产的人，但我已经这样做了很长时间，而且我一直在发布音乐。推动音乐发展的唯一动力是音乐制作者。
