A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
新
New
It will always be the same possibilities, in sum or on the average, that go on repeating themselves until a man comes along who does not value the actuality above idea. It is he who first gives the new possibilities their meaning, their direction, and he awakens them.
总而言之或总而言之，可能性总是相同的，它们不断地重复着，直到一个不把现实看得比思想更重要的人出现为止。他首先赋予新的可能性以意义和方向，然后唤醒它们。
I knew that if I wrote a new book every six months or every year, if I continued to read great books, eventually I would write something worthy of publication. I understood I might be in my forties or my fifties or even my sixties, but I felt confident that it would happen.
我知道如果我每六个月或每年写一本新书，如果我继续读好书，最终我会写出一些值得出版的东西。我知道我可能在四十多岁，五十多岁，甚至六十多岁，但我相信这将会发生。
Before, I guess, mum and dad were everything, but now, in my case, I had two new girls and all of a sudden they're completely dependent on you and there's a third generation. It's a funny shift all of a sudden. You have the babies, you have yourself and then you have your parents.
以前，我想，妈妈和爸爸就是一切，但现在，就我而言，我有了两个新女孩，突然间，她们完全依赖你，有了第三代。这是一个有趣的转变。你有孩子，你有你自己，然后你有你的父母。
One day Mum saved up for this exciting new thing - a frozen chicken. She cooked it on the Sunday and we all sat around waiting for it, but there was a terrible smell from the kitchen. She didn't realise that the giblets were in a plastic bag inside it. We just ate vegetables and she cried and cried.
有一天，妈妈为这个令人兴奋的新东西存钱——一只冻鸡。她在星期天做的，我们都坐在那里等着，但是厨房里有一股难闻的味道。她没有意识到内脏在里面的塑料袋里。我们只是吃蔬菜，她哭了又哭。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
We must not become the new puritans and reject our society. We must address and master the future together. It can be done if we restore the belief that we share a sense of national community, that we share a common national endeavor. It can be done.
我们决不能成为新的清教徒，拒绝我们的社会。我们必须共同应对和把握未来。如果我们恢复这样一种信念，即我们拥有共同的国家共同体意识，我们拥有共同的国家努力，我们就能做到这一点。这是可以做到的。
Let me go to Clinton's new proposal: to have uniforms in public schools. And people are doing that. How come they're doing that? Dress codes! I find that abhorrent.
让我谈谈克林顿的新提议:公立学校要有校服。人们正在这样做。他们怎么会这么做?着装规范!我觉得这很可恶。
Every culture has something to be ashamed of, but every culture also has the right to change, to challenge negative traditions, and create to new ones.
每一种文化都有值得羞愧的地方，但是每一种文化也有权利去改变，去挑战消极的传统，去创造新的传统。
I want a new past,new memories, a new first handshake with love. I want to start over in every possible way.

I've tried in my career to do most everything, because it all intrigues me. And I've found the first time I work in a new form, I discover all the things that make that an exciting medium. I've been very busy most of my career. I've had very few vacations.
在我的职业生涯中，我尝试过做几乎所有的事情，因为这一切都激起了我的兴趣。我发现我第一次以一种新的形式工作时，我发现了所有使它成为一种令人兴奋的媒介的东西。我职业生涯的大部分时间都很忙。我很少有假期。
