A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
个人
Myself
I've always said that one night, I'm going to find myself in some field somewhere, I'm standing on grass, and it's raining, and I'm with the person I love, and I know I'm at the very point I've been dreaming of getting to.
我总是说,总有一天晚上,我会发现自己在某个地方的某个田野里,我站在草地上,天在下雨,我和我爱的人在一起,我知道我正处在我梦寐以求的那个时刻。
I don't consider myself a rock star chef, I really don't. I cook for a living and I try to help out as many people as I can in my life and that's all I care about. I don't care about the fame of television, I use to a lot.
我不认为自己是一个摇滚明星厨师,我真的不这么认为。我以做饭为生,我尽力帮助生活中尽可能多的人,这就是我所关心的。我不在乎电视的名声,我习惯了。
I think I just have this need to be a storyteller. That's why I wasn't a great dancer - I couldn't articulate a story. I was a better choreographer. I have the need to to just express myself in that way. I can't explain it.
我想我只是需要成为一个讲故事的人。这就是为什么我不是一个优秀的舞者——我不能清晰地说出一个故事。我是一个更好的编舞。我需要用那种方式表达自己。我无法解释。
I hate myself in interviews. All of a sudden, you stop and you're like, 'Chris, how dare you?' I don't live in Darfur. I have both legs. But you can't walk around all the time being like, 'I'm so grateful I'm not in Darfur.'
我讨厌面试时的自己。突然,你停了下来,你说,‘克里斯,你怎么敢这样?我不住在达尔富尔。我有两条腿。但你不能总是说,‘我很庆幸我不在达尔富尔’。
Oddly, when I started to make the record, I wasn't aware I was making a record. I just was sort of disgusted with the whole thing and sequestered myself in the basement and started playing the piano just for something to do.
奇怪的是,当我开始录制唱片时,我并不知道我在录制唱片。我对整件事有点反感,把自己关在地下室里,开始弹钢琴,只是为了找点事做。
I parody myself every chance I get. I try to make fun of myself and let people know that I'm a human being, and these things that have happened to me are real. I'm not just some cartoon who exists and suddenly doesn't exist.
我一有机会就模仿自己。我试着取笑自己,让人们知道我是一个人,这些发生在我身上的事情是真实的。我不只是某个卡通人物存在然后突然不存在。
I mean, I never liked being told what to do. It's one of the reasons I dropped out of school. Give me something to assemble, I won't look at the directions, I'll try to figure it out by myself. It's why I love Ikea furniture.
我是说,我从来就不喜欢别人告诉我该做什么。这是我辍学的原因之一。给我一些组装的东西,我不会看方向,我会试着自己算出来。这就是我喜欢宜家家具的原因。
It really costs me a lot emotionally to watch myself on-screen. I think of myself, and feel like I'm quite young, and then I look at this old man with the baggy chins and the tired eyes and the receding hairline and all that.
在屏幕上看自己真的让我付出了很多情感上的代价。我想起了自己,觉得自己还很年轻,然后我看着这位下巴松松垮垮、眼神疲惫、发际线逐渐收窄的老人。
To begin with myself, then, the utterances of men concerning me will differ widely, since in passing judgment almost every one is influenced not so much by truth as by preference, and good and evil report alike know no bounds.
那么,从我自己开始,人们对我的议论就会大不相同,因为在作出判断时,几乎每一个人与其说受到真理的影响,不如说是受到偏爱的影响,而且善恶的报道都是不分国界的。
He surprised me by his familiarity with details of movements and battles which I did not suppose had come to his knowledge. As he kept me talking for over half an hour, I flattered myself that what I had to say interested him.
他对运动和战斗的细节了如指掌,这使我感到惊讶,我想他是不知道这些的。他让我讲了半个多小时,我自以为他对我要说的话很感兴趣。
I see myself as a citizen of the planet. Even as a child, I always found it mindless to root for your own team. I was puzzled by the fact that people said their own team was better than other teams simply because it was theirs.
我把自己看作是这个星球的公民。甚至当我还是个孩子的时候,我就发现为自己的团队加油是愚蠢的。人们说他们自己的球队比其他球队好,只是因为这是他们的球队,这让我很困惑。
The whole conviction of my life now rests upon the belief that loneliness, far from being a rare and curious phenomenon, peculiar to myself and to a few other solitary men, is the central and inevitable fact of human existence.
我现在生活的全部信念都建立在这样一种信念之上:孤独远非我和其他几个孤独的人所特有的一种罕见而奇特的现象,而是人类存在的中心和不可避免的事实。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
I've never had my brows done - I tweeze them myself. I used to watch my mom pluck her brows, that's how I learned.
我从来没有做过眉毛——我自己用镊子夹住眉毛。我曾经看着我妈妈拔眉毛,这就是我学到的。
When I first see the dailies, I look only at myself, but then you start to see the scene.
当我第一次看到日报时,我只看我自己,然后你开始看到场景。
I don't think of myself as a movie star and I can pretty easily convince other people that I'm not a movie star.
我不认为自己是一个电影明星,我可以很容易地说服别人我不是一个电影明星。
I really do literally put myself into a character's shoes.
我真的会设身处地地为角色着想。
So anyway, I've learned a lot about myself just in terms of acting but just work ethic and interesting things like full-page monologues or talking straight into camera, which I had never gotten to do before.
总之,我学到了很多关于我自己的东西,不仅仅是表演,还有职业道德和有趣的事情,比如整页独白或者对着镜头说话,这是我以前从来没有做过的。
I never direct myself, because I don't like working with me. I would punch me in the mouth if I had to take my direction.
我从不指挥自己,因为我不喜欢和我一起工作。如果我必须指出我的方向,我就会打自己的嘴巴。
