A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
个人
Myself
I never imagined it wouldn't work out for me. I had that absolute certainty in myself that has seen me through, I think, and my parents were absolutely behind me all the way.
我从来没想过我不会成功。我对自己有绝对的信心,我想,正是这种信心帮助我度过了难关,而我的父母一直在我身后支持着我。
We were in all four men with eight animals; for besides the spare horses led by Shaw and myself, an additional mule was driven along with us as a reserve in case of accident.
我们四个人带着八只动物;因为除了我和肖牵着几匹备用的马之外,我们还牵了一头骡子作为后备,以防万一。
I'm close with my parents. I have a lot of acquaintances, but my very good close friends are few I can count my very good friends on one hand. And that's how I like it to be.
我和父母关系很好。我有很多熟人,但是我的好朋友很少,我可以用一只手计算我的好朋友。这就是我想要的。
It I talked about Watergate, I was described as struggling to free myself from the morass. If I did not talk about Watergate, I was accused of being out of touch with reality.

And I tell you that's one of the reasons why I didn't have the friendships with the media, maybe like I could have. But I had to do what I had to do to make myself successful.
我告诉你们,这就是我没有和媒体建立友谊的原因之一,也许我本可以和媒体建立友谊。但是我必须做我必须做的来让自己成功。
What can I do, I asked myself, that is so spectacular that no one will be able to say he had seen it before? The answer was perfectly obvious. I would send a midget up to bat.
“我能做什么呢?”我问自己,“这么壮观,没人能说他以前见过吗?”答案非常明显。我会派个侏儒去击球。
It's the main reason why I continue to push myself and my career to do more and more as the amount that you're able to raise for charity and to give to charity by my celebrity.
这是我不断督促自己和我的事业做得越来越多的主要原因,因为你可以为慈善事业筹集到更多的钱,并通过我的名气为慈善事业捐款。
I took three years off. I differentiated myself from the industry. Found my identity - sort of... I haven't graduated yet. I'm not legitimately educated yet, but maybe one day.
我休息了三年。我使自己与这个行业不同。找到了我的身份——有点……我还没毕业呢。我还没有接受正规的教育,但也许有一天。
I sing in many different colors and, hopefully, they add up to a great performance that, after you leave the theater, makes you feel like I've really shared something of myself.
我用很多不同的颜色唱歌,希望这些颜色加起来能成为一场精彩的演出,在你离开剧院后,让你觉得我真的分享了自己的一些东西。
For humble individuals like myself, there is one poor comfort, which is this, viz. that gout, unlike any other disease, kills more rich men than poor, more wise men than simple.
对于像我这样卑微的人来说,只有一种可怜的安慰,那就是痛风,不像其他疾病,富人比穷人死得更多,聪明人比普通人死得更多。
I have in sincerity pledged myself to your service, as so many of you are pledged to mine. Throughout all my life and with all my heart I shall strive to be worthy of your trust.
我真诚地承诺为你们服务,正如你们许多人承诺为我服务一样。我将用我的一生,用我的整个心,努力使自己配得上你的信任。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
If you ask me what I came into this life to do, I will tell you: I came to live out loud.
如果你问我来到这个世界是为了做什么,我将告诉你:我是为了大声地活着。
