A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
观众
Audience
Never use the word 'audience.' The very idea of a public, unless the poet is writing for money, seems wrong to me. Poets don't have an 'audience'. They're talking to a single person all the time.
永远不要用“听众”这个词。“除非诗人是为了钱而写作，否则公众的想法在我看来就是错误的。诗人没有“听众”。他们一直在和一个人说话。
All of the sudden the audiences started getting younger and the spread of the attendance was really wide. I think it's as a result of the records selling more that they started following our careers.
突然间，观众开始变得年轻起来，而且观众的分布范围非常广。我认为这是唱片销量增加的结果，他们开始追随我们的事业。
Just once I would like to persuade the audience not to wear any article of blue denim. If only they could see themselves in a pair of brown corduroys like mine instead of this awful, boring blue denim.
只有一次我想说服观众不要穿任何蓝色牛仔布的衣服。要是他们能看到自己穿一条像我的一样的棕色灯芯绒裤子，而不是这条糟糕、乏味的蓝色牛仔布就好了。
When you're standing in front of an audience like this that is so enthusiastic and so much behind you, it is very hard to give a bad speech. Even a bad speech sounds good in a convention hall like this.
当你站在如此热情的观众面前，又有如此多的观众站在你身后时，你很难做出糟糕的演讲。在这样的会议大厅里，即使是一个糟糕的演讲听起来也很不错。
You can't force something like that. But we have encouraged our audience, because we avoid the confrontation of regular rock concerts: us up here, you down there. Instead, we're looking for interaction.
你不能强迫别人这么做。但我们鼓励了我们的观众，因为我们避免了常规摇滚音乐会的对抗:我们在这里，你们在那里。相反，我们在寻找互动。
I began directing episodes, which was a great light every couple of months. We never short-changed our audience, but it became something that you had to work at rather than something that was a pleasure.
我开始导演剧集，每隔几个月就有一部很棒的片子。我们从来没有欺骗过我们的观众，但它变成了你必须要做的事情，而不是一种乐趣。
I think that we had a really loyal, great audience on Tuesdays and we were hoping that with the move, they would come with us. It looks like they have, so things are good and we are going to keep building.
我想我们周二有很多忠实的观众，我们希望随着搬家，他们会和我们一起来。看起来他们做到了，所以一切都很好，我们将继续建设。
I think I probably would have enjoyed to keep my own private pain out of my work. But I was changed by my audience who said your private pain which you have unwittingly shown us in your early songs is also ours.
我想我可能很乐意把我个人的痛苦从我的工作中排除出去。但我被我的听众改变了，他们说，你在早期歌曲中无意中表现给我们的私人痛苦也是我们的。
I look at myself, and I see a Spanish person who's trying to be understood by an English-speaking audience and is putting a lot of energy into that, instead of into expressing himself freely and feeling comfortable.
我看着自己，我看到一个西班牙人试图被说英语的观众所理解，并投入了大量的精力，而不是自由地表达自己，感到舒服。
With every year that passes, I get further away from my target audience, and while I've been happy to think of myself as a father figure to these kids, I'd be a little distressed to be thought of as a grandfather figure.
随着时间的流逝，我离我的目标观众越来越远，虽然我很高兴自己成为这些孩子的父亲，但如果我被认为是祖父，我会有点难过。
But, you know there's a lot of westerns - not that they were bad - it's just that they can be remade because they're great stories that aren't indelible in an audience's mind when it comes to both the cast and the story.
但是，你知道有很多西部片——并不是说它们不好——只是它们可以被重拍，因为它们是伟大的故事，无论在演员阵容还是故事情节上，都不会在观众心中留下不可磨灭的印象。
I've been on the show for six years and I don't even know what her history is. I sort of make things up in my mind, but I think it's hard for an audience to follow and invest in a character when they don't have the details.
我上这个节目已经六年了，我甚至不知道她的过去。我在脑海中有一些想法，但我认为当观众不了解一个角色的细节时，他们很难理解并投入其中。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Let's put it this way: art house theaters are vanishing. They have almost disappeared completely, and that means there's a shift in what audiences want to see. And they have to be aware of that and be realistic. It's as simple as that.
这么说吧:艺术剧院正在消失。它们几乎完全消失了，这意味着观众想看的东西发生了变化。他们必须意识到这一点，并且要现实。就是这么简单。
Over time, quality work will lead to an audience for your work.
随着时间的推移，高质量的工作将为你的工作带来观众。
All audiences should be slightly off balance.
所有的观众都应该稍微失去平衡。
I've never wanted to do something where I'd berate the audience.
我从来没有想过要做什么事来斥责观众。
There's an audience for everything.
每件事都有观众。
