A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
个人
Myself
My mother always wanted me to be glamorous. When I thought about that, it really fired me up, and once I lost all those pounds, I started to feel really good about myself.
我妈妈一直希望我有魅力。当我想到这一点时,我真的很兴奋,一旦我减掉了所有的体重,我开始对自己感觉很好。
The first step toward finding God, Who is Truth, is to discover the truth about myself: and if I have been in error, this first step to truth is the discovery of my error.
找到真理的上帝的第一步,是发现关于我自己的真理。如果我犯了错误,找到真理的第一步就是发现我的错误。
The more you let yourself be distracted from where you are going, the more you are the person that you are. It's not so much like getting lost as it is like getting found.
你越让自己从你要去的地方分心,你就越成为你自己。与其说是迷路,不如说是找到了。
I've heard all kinds of crazy rumors about myself. I've even heard that I'm pregnant! I've become real good about laughing things off - I figure I'd better get used to it.

I wasn't very impressed with myself in the first half. I was fortunate enough (in the second half) my teammates got me the ball. I was seeing the gaps a lot better tonight.

Even if a university should turn out to be another version of a school, I had decided I could lose myself afterwards as an anonymous particle of the London I already loved.

But the idea of a man making his living by writing seemed, in that hardy environment, so fantastic that even today I am sometimes myself assailed by a feeling of unreality.

Motherhood has helped me to stop overanalyzing things. It's been liberating because I used to be somewhat neurotic. I attribute that to having something bigger than myself.
做母亲帮助我不再过度分析事情。这是一种解脱,因为我曾经有点神经质。我把这归功于比我更伟大的东西。
Obviously, losing a parent is very difficult. I miss my dad every day, but I know he would be proud to see me continuing to swim and going for another shot at the Olympics.

They see me as being this Super Mom on TV who also can more than handle a difficult husband, and they assume I'm going to be just full of wisdom as a mother and wife myself.

Of the unjust rights which in virtue of this ceremony an iniquitous law gives me over the person and property of another, I cannot legally, but I can morally, divest myself.

The fact that I am a writer comes from the experience of being cut away from my roots and living in Venezuela, where I couldn't find a place for myself, for years and years.
