A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
个人
Myself
I have this thing I say to myself that 'tomorrow can be better.' And I remember that period in my life where I never felt like tomorrow could be better. It was always dread for the next day.
我对自己说,‘明天会更好。我还记得我生命中的那个时期,我从来没有觉得明天会更好。第二天总是充满了恐惧。
I just had to find something else to fulfill me. Always being a singer and writing, it was a blessing. My brother started making music that was the kind of music I always saw myself singing.
我得找点别的事来充实自己。作为一个歌手和作家,这是一种福气。我哥哥开始创作音乐,那是我经常看到自己唱的那种音乐。
As soon as you become afraid to make a fool of yourself, you're in trouble. I decided I may as well just see if I can live with myself making millions of mistakes and learn something from it.
一旦你害怕出丑,你就有麻烦了。我决定,我不妨看看自己是否能忍受自己犯下的无数错误,并从中吸取教训。
So what I do is supervise the boarding process trying to get the shows the way I'd like them to be. And in some cases I've completely redone a board myself even though I'm not credited for it.
所以我要做的就是监督整个登船过程,试着让节目按照我希望的方式播出。在某些情况下,我自己也完全重做了一块黑板,尽管我并没有因此而受到好评。
Because I was able to submerge myself into the character, I didn't have to go back and forth. You don't have to work hard to bring emotions. It all just comes naturally, you're there living it.
因为我能够将自己融入角色中,所以我不必来回奔波。你不需要努力工作来带来情绪。一切都是自然而然的,你就生活在其中。
If my life were a song it'd be called 'Here I Am' because here I am - I mean, I'm Thia and I'm here to me me, I'm here to express myself musically which I find is the best way to express myself.
如果我的生命是一首歌,它应该被称为“我在这里”,因为我在这里,我的意思是,我是西亚,我在这里我的我,我在这里表达自己的音乐,我发现这是最好的方式来表达我自己。
It's not that I don't want to become famous or that I'm obsessed by my work as an actress, but it's all about not limiting myself, such as putting myself in a little jail that I can escape from.
这并不是说我不想出名,也不是说我痴迷于我的演员工作,而是说我不要限制自己,比如把自己关在一个可以逃脱的小监狱里。
I really don't know how to be anyone else, and whenever I try to be anyone else, I fail miserably. Or I disappoint myself. It doesn't build my self-esteem, and it doesn't help me grow me at all.
我真的不知道如何成为别人,每当我试图成为别人的时候,我都失败得很惨。或者我让自己失望了。它不能建立我的自尊,也不能帮助我成长。
I never laugh or smile when I am writing. When I come home for lunch after writing all morning, my wife says I look like I just came home from a funeral. This is not bragging. This is an illness.
当我写作时,我从不笑或微笑。当我写了一上午的信回家吃午饭时,我妻子说我看起来就像刚参加完葬礼回家一样。这不是吹牛。这是一种疾病。
I know now that most people are so closely concerned with themselves that they are not aware of their own individuality, I can see myself, and it has helped me to say what I want to say in paint.
我现在知道,大多数人都非常关注自己,以至于没有意识到自己的个性,我可以看到我自己,这帮助我在绘画中表达我想说的话。
I consider myself as a singer first, but something that really helped me come into my own is that there's not a separation between me singing and me playing the guitar. The two fed off the other.
我认为自己首先是一名歌手,但真正帮助我实现自我的是,我唱歌和弹吉他之间并没有分离。两个人互相取食。
If I am walking with two other men, each of them will serve as my teacher. I will pick out the good points of the one and imitate them, and the bad points of the other and correct them in myself.
三人行,必有我师焉。择其善者而从之,其不善者而改之。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
I keep myself busy with the things i do. But everytime i pause, i still think of you.
我让自己忙于我所做的事情。但每次我停下来,我还是会想起你。
I'm a serious eater and a seriously hungry person, so I set out on that path to figure it out for myself, and of course it really resonated with other people.
我是一个非常爱吃的人,也是一个非常饥饿的人,所以我开始在这条路上寻找答案,当然这也引起了其他人的共鸣。
All novels are about crime. You'd be hard pressed to find any novel that does not have an element of crime. I don't see myself as a crime novelist, but there are crimes in my books. That's the nature of storytelling, if you want to reflect the real world.
所有的小说都是关于犯罪的。你很难找到没有犯罪元素的小说。我不认为自己是犯罪小说家,但我的书中也有犯罪。如果你想反映真实世界,这就是讲故事的本质。
My mom died of cancer when I was really young. I'm not someone who tries to work out their own stuff with a role, but I think that happened despite my best efforts to keep myself separate from it.
我妈妈在我很小的时候就死于癌症。我并不是那种想要在一个角色中完成自己的事情的人,但我认为,尽管我尽了最大的努力让自己远离这个角色,但还是发生了这样的事情。
For myself, for a long time... maybe I felt inauthentic or something, I felt like my voice wasn't worth hearing, and I think everyone's voice is worth hearing. So if you've got something to say, say it from the rooftops.
对于我自己,在很长一段时间里……也许我觉得自己不真实,我觉得我的声音不值得听,我觉得每个人的声音都值得听。所以如果你有什么要说的,站在屋顶上说。
So I did that for a long time in my career, and I waited for parts to play myself just physically down a little bit. But I do feel like I'm at a place in my career now where I don't necessarily fret about that too much anymore.
所以我在我的职业生涯中有很长一段时间都是这样做的,我一直在等待角色让我的身体稍微放松一点。但我确实觉得我现在处于职业生涯的一个阶段,我不必再为那件事担心太多。
