A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
记忆
Memories
Ten years ago, when I was on an airplane and I introduced myself to my seatmate, and told them, they’d move away from me. And now when I tell people what I do, they move toward me.
十年前,我在飞机上向我的邻座作了自我介绍,告诉他们,他们要离我远点。现在当我告诉人们我在做什么的时候,他们就会向我靠拢。
It is difficult sharing and capturing so many years of memories and the people behind the words-and even though that guest book can speak volumes, in between, the pages remain so silent.
分享和捕捉这么多年的记忆和文字背后的人物是很困难的,即使那本留言簿能说明很多问题,但在这期间,书页却保持沉默。
My dad taught me from my youngest childhood memories through these connections with Aboriginal and tribal people that you must always protect people's sacred status, regardless of the pest.

When I recall today my early youth, I should take the boy that I then was, with the exception of a few individual features, for a different person, were it not for the existence of the chain of memories.

Our enemies are our evil deeds and their memories, our pride, our selfishness, our malice, our passions, which by conscience or by habit pursue us with a relentlessness past the power of figure to express.

I've never tried to block out the memories of the past, even though some are painful. I don't understand people who hide from their past. Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.

When I was growing up in New Jersey, my mom would regularly take my sister and I into the city to see shows. I have many fond memories of standing in the half-price ticket line in Times Square and going to matinees.

When we come to images or memories or thoughts, speculation, while always closely related to practice, is more explicit, and it is in fact not immediately obvious that such processes can be described in any sense as practical.

By interviewing at least one veteran, you can preserve memories that otherwise might be lost. My uncle was a downed fighter pilot and P.O.W. in World War II, and I am looking forward to recording his story for inclusion in the project.

Through the years, I have so many wonderful memories of playing with the Red Wings: winning four Stanley Cups, scoring big goals, going into battle every night side by side with my teammates, playing with every ounce of effort I could muster.

I've been writing an ongoing letter to my children since they were born, full of recollections of their childhoods. I've filled two journals. It's a great thing to do as a mother - you forget a lot as you go along, but reading over what you've written brings all the memories back.
从我的孩子们出生起,我就一直在给他们写信,充满了对他们童年的回忆。我已经写了两本日记。作为一个母亲,这是一件很棒的事情——你会忘记很多事情,但是阅读你写的东西会让你回忆起所有的事情。
My fondest memories were watching the Beastie Boys get prepped to come on stage. They had a lot of antics and they play a lot of basketball... then they were giving out cameras to the crowd, and performing from the bleachers. The most important thing I learned was that you control your crowd, not the other way around.
我最美好的回忆是看着野兽男孩们准备上台。他们有很多滑稽动作,他们打了很多篮球……然后他们向观众分发摄像机,并在看台上表演。我学到的最重要的一件事是,你控制你的人群,而不是反过来。
