A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
早....
Morning
I doing casual labor by the day. They wouldn't pay you until the next morning. There was a bar that would cash your check if you bought a beer first. A lot of guys never left until they'd drunk up all their money.
我每天做临时工。他们要到第二天早上才会付给你钱。如果你先买啤酒,有一家酒吧会把你的支票兑换成现金。很多人直到喝光所有的钱才离开。
This morning, I went to wipe my hands on a tea towel, and while I was using it, it seemed like it felt a bit light. I unfolded it and realized my daughter had cut little bits out of it to make frocks for her dolls!
今天早上,我去用茶巾擦手,当我用的时候,感觉好像有点轻。我打开它,意识到我的女儿从里面剪了一小块来给她的洋娃娃做连衣裙!
Somehow, I've been blessed to be able to have the young spirit inside - not feel like every year I get a year older. I feel like every year I get a year younger. I don't wake up in the morning with aches and pains.
不知何故,我很幸运能拥有这种年轻的精神,而不是感觉自己一年比一年老。我觉得自己一年比一年年轻。我早上不会带着疼痛醒来。
Homey don't quit. What else are you gonna do? It's like those guys in the cartoon they get up in the morning, check the clock and fight all day and after it's over they check the clock and go home. That's how it goes.
家的不放弃。你还能做什么?这就像漫画里的那些人,他们早上起床,查看时钟,然后一整天都在战斗,结束后,他们查看时钟,然后回家。事情就是这样。
I spent every night until four in the morning on my dissertation, until I came to the point when I could not write another word, not even the next letter. I went to bed. Eight o'clock the next morning I was up writing again.
我每天晚上都要写论文,直到凌晨四点,直到我不能再写一个字,甚至连下一封信都写不出来。我上床睡觉了。第二天早上八点,我又开始写作了。
If you read about Mussolini or Stalin or some of these other great monsters of history, they were at it all the time, that they were getting up in the morning very early. They were physically very active. They didn't eat lunch.
如果你读过墨索里尼、斯大林或其他一些历史上的伟人,你会发现他们一直都是这样,他们每天早上都很早起床。他们身体非常活跃。他们没有吃午饭。
As long as the number one worry for people, keeping them up at nights, is whether they're going to have a job in the morning, then they are less likely to resist unfair changes, or unfair treatment, or cuts in real pay at work.
只要人们最担心的事情,让他们夜不能寐的事情,是他们是否要在早上工作,那么他们就不太可能抗拒不公平的改变,不公平的待遇,或者是工作中实际工资的削减。
We all wake up in the morning wanting to live our lives the way we know we should. But we usually don't, in small ways. That's what makes a character like Batman so fascinating. He plays out our conflicts on a much larger scale.
我们每天早上醒来都想过自己应该过的生活。但我们通常不会,在小的方面。这就是为什么像蝙蝠侠这样的角色如此迷人。他在更大的范围内展现了我们之间的冲突。
But I try to steal other moments. Sometimes I get up very early in the morning and enjoy a quiet house and cup of tea before the craziness begins. Other times, I'll take a quick walk on the beach. You can find peace in a few minutes.
但我试着去偷其他的时刻。有时候我很早就起床,享受一个安静的房子和一杯茶之前的疯狂开始。其他时候,我会在海滩上散步。你可以在几分钟内找到平静。
When I wrote the song, I had the sea near Bombay in mind. We stayed at a hotel by the sea, and the fishermen come up at five in the morning and they were all chanting. And we went on the beach and we got chased by a mad dog - big as a donkey.
当我写这首歌的时候,我想到了孟买附近的大海。我们住在海边的一家旅馆里,渔民们早上五点就来了,他们都在唱着歌。我们去了海滩,我们被一只疯狗追赶——大得像驴子。
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。
The repose of sleep refreshes only the body. It rarely sets the soul at rest. The repose of the night does not belong to us. It is not the possession of our being. Sleep opens within us an inn for phantoms. In the morning we must sweep out the shadows.
睡眠的休息只会使身体恢复活力。它很少能让灵魂安息。夜的安息不属于我们。它不是我们存在的财产。睡眠为我们打开了一个幽灵旅馆。早晨我们必须扫除阴影。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
The childhood shows the man, as morning shows the day.
童年之于一个人,正如早晨之于一天。
I like to be busy and I like to have places to go in the morning, when I get up.

It ain't as bad as you think. It will look better in the morning.
事情并不像你想的那么糟。明天早上看起来会好些。
I half knew what to expect when I saw the cricket ground in the morning. It was when I started to talk to people working out there, I began to find what I was looking for.
当我早上看到板球场时,我几乎知道会发生什么。当我开始和在那里工作的人交谈时,我开始找到我想要的东西。
What's money? A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.
钱是什么?如果一个人早上起床,晚上睡觉,中间做他想做的事,他就是一个成功的人。
He had written my mother once that he wanted her to be the first thing he saw every morning and the last thing he ever saw. And that's how it turned out.
他曾给我母亲写过一封信,说他想让她成为他每天早晨看到的第一件事,也是他见到的最后一件事。结果就是这样。
