A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
需要
Needs
Building a proper wardrobe is like building a home. Indeed, you should think of it like a home, because it is something you're going to live in. It must be comfortable and suit all your needs.
建造一个合适的衣橱就像建造一个家。事实上,你应该把它当成一个家,因为它是你将要生活的地方。它必须是舒适的,适合你所有的需要。
No institution can possibly survive if it needs geniuses or supermen to manage it. It must be organized in such a way as to be able to get along under a leadership composed of average human beings.
如果一个机构需要天才或超人来管理,它就不可能生存。它的组织方式必须能够在由一般人组成的领导下和睦相处。
I have no problems with private schools. I graduated from one and so did my mother. Private schools are useful and we often use public funds to pay for their infrastructures and other common needs.
我对私立学校没有意见。我和我的母亲都从大学毕业。私立学校是有用的,我们经常使用公共资金来支付他们的基础设施和其他共同需求。
I think that the balance needs to be restored, and I would note that in the camp in which I am in, one finds libraries, universities, the Internet industry, the manufacturers of digital media, and consumers.
我认为需要恢复平衡,我要指出,在我所处的阵营中,有图书馆、大学、互联网行业、数字媒体制造商和消费者。
To be a soldier one needs that special gene, that extra something, that enables a person to jump into one on one combat, something, after all, that is unimaginable to most of us, as we are simply not brave enough.
作为一名士兵,我们需要那种特殊的基因,那种额外的东西,那种能让一个人在一场战斗中投入其中的东西,毕竟,这对我们大多数人来说是无法想象的,因为我们根本不够勇敢。
As a busker, one thing that does not work is self-consciousness. A busker needs to be working. A busker needs to shed all ego and get down to work. Play your songs, play them well, earn your money, and don't get in people's way.
作为一个街头艺人,自我意识是行不通的。街头艺人需要工作。街头艺人需要放下所有的自负,开始工作。弹你的歌,弹好,赚你的钱,不要妨碍别人。
The so-called modern education, with all its defects, however, does others so much more good than it does the Negro, because it has been worked out in conformity to the needs of those who have enslaved and oppressed weaker peoples.
然而,所谓的现代教育,尽管有其种种缺陷,但对别人的好处却远远大于对黑人的好处,因为它是根据那些奴役和压迫弱小民族的人的需要而制定的。
Society has not been set up in a way that allows women to go back to work after taking time off. Many women now have to work as well as do everything at home and no one can do everything. Society needs to find a way of relieving women.
社会还没有建立起一种允许女性在休假后重返工作岗位的方式。现在,许多女性不得不工作,同时还要在家做所有的事情,没有人能做所有的事情。社会需要找到一种救济妇女的方法。
You feel the music needs something but you don't know what. So you start searching, fitting, measuring, trying. Every time you try another angle. And sometimes that's frustrating, especially if you don't come up with something for three days.
你觉得音乐需要一些东西,但你不知道是什么。所以你开始搜索,拟合,测量,尝试。每次你换一个角度。有时候这很让人沮丧,尤其是如果你三天都没想出什么好主意的话。
If you are under the illusion that you can start a business and run it at your life's schedule, you are mistaken. The business is like a starving puppy - when it needs to eat, then it needs to eat regardless of what you have going on personally.
如果你错误地认为自己可以创业,并按照自己的人生计划来经营,那你就错了。企业就像一只饥饿的小狗——当它需要吃东西的时候,不管你个人发生了什么,它都需要吃东西。
An organization which claims to be working for the needs of a community - as SNCC does - must work to provide that community with a position of strength from which to make its voice heard. This is the significance of black power beyond the slogan.
象全国协调会一样,一个声称正在为一个社区的需要而工作的组织必须努力为该社区提供一个能够使其发出其声音的有力地位。这就是黑人权力的意义不只是口号。
Death used to announce itself in the thick of life but now people drag on so long it sometimes seems that we are reaching the stage when we may have to announce ourselves to death. It is as though one needs a special strength to die, and not a final weakness.
死亡过去常常在生命的壮年宣布它自己,但现在人们拖得太久了,有时我们似乎到了不得不宣布死亡的时候。就好像一个人死的时候需要一种特殊的力量,而不是最终的弱点。

The essential support and encouragement comes from within, arising out of the mad notion that your society needs to know what only you can tell it.

Like your home's closets, your financial clutter needs an overhaul every now and again, and the payoff will go far beyond the psychic satisfaction of neatening up.
就像你家里的壁橱一样,你的财务杂物也需要时不时地进行一次大修,而这样做的回报将远远超出清理的心理满足感。
