A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
父母
Parents
Parents, however old they and we may grow to be, serve among other things to shield us from a sense of our doom. As long as they are around, we can avoid the fact of our mortality; we can still be innocent children.
父母，无论他们和我们年龄多大，都能帮助我们避免厄运。只要它们存在，我们就能避免死亡;我们仍然可以是无辜的孩子。
It is one of the ironies of the ministry that the very man who works in God's name is often hardest put to find time for God. The parents of Jesus lost Him at church, and they were not the last ones to lose Him there.
事奉的讽刺之一，就是奉神名行事的人，常常最不容易抽出时间来亲近神。耶稣的父母在教堂里失去了他，他们不是最后一批在那里失去他的人。
A lot of parents tell their children that if they want to be an actor, that's fine, but they should do something else first, so they've got something to fall back on. It doesn't work like that, as far as I'm concerned.
很多父母告诉他们的孩子，如果他们想成为一名演员，那很好，但是他们应该先做别的事情，这样他们就有了可以依靠的东西。在我看来，事情不是这样的。
I was always very active as a kid. I would climb on roofs and jump off using my parents' bed sheet, hoping it would open like a parachute. I was always getting hurt, breaking a leg, you know, bruising, cracking my head open.
我小时候总是很活跃。我会爬上屋顶，用我父母的床单跳下，希望它能像降落伞一样打开。我总是受伤，摔断一条腿，你知道，瘀伤，把我的头撞开。
I had one year of struggle. My parents were always there, but I didn't want to rely on them. Now it's moving pretty fast. I'm not rich, but obviously this is fantastic. All I know to do with money is put it in a shoebox anyway.
我挣扎了一年。我的父母总是在那里，但我不想依赖他们。现在它移动得相当快。我并不富有，但很明显这很棒。我只知道把钱放在鞋盒里就行了。
God blessed me with two unbelievable parents, and I am just like both of them. I have the smile and charisma of my mother and the big heart of my mom, because she wants to save the world and help the world, so I am just like her.
上帝保佑我有两个令人难以置信的父母，我就像他们一样。我有我妈妈的微笑和魅力，还有我妈妈的胸怀，因为她想拯救世界，帮助世界，所以我就像她一样。
I would say my biggest mentor has been my father because he always has been. Actually both of my parents have always been ones to encourage me to be myself and stay true to myself and not fall into what other people want me to do.
我会说我最大的导师是我的父亲，因为他一直都是。事实上，我的父母一直鼓励我做自己，做真实的自己，不要陷入别人想让我做的事情。
I looked at some of the statues of Jesus; they were just stones with no life. When they said that God is three, I was puzzled even more but could not argue. I believed it, simply because I had to have respect for the faith of my parents.
我看了一些耶稣的雕像;它们只是没有生命的石头。当他们说上帝是三岁时，我更困惑了，但无法争辩。我相信它，只是因为我必须尊重父母的信仰。
When you're a kid, you see your parents reading the newspaper and you're like, 'God, why are they reading the newspaper?' When you're young, you're not reading the newspaper. But there comes a time in your life when the newspaper's cool.
当你还是个孩子的时候，你看到父母在看报纸，你会想，‘天哪，他们为什么要看报纸?“当你年轻的时候，你不会看报纸。但在你的生活中总会有那么一段时间报纸很酷。
Parents provide their children with genes as well as an environment, so the fact that talkative parents have kids with good language skills could simply mean that and that the same genes that make parents talkative make children articulate.
父母为他们的孩子提供了基因和环境，所以事实上，健谈的父母拥有拥有良好语言技能的孩子，这可能仅仅意味着，使父母健谈的基因使孩子表达清晰。
I think all kids think their parents are strict. My parents aren't superstrict, but they seem to be stricter than most. But even though it's like, 'Oh, gosh, I've gotta be in at this time,' they know what they're doing. I have great parents.
我想所有的孩子都认为他们的父母很严格。我的父母不是很严格，但他们似乎比大多数人都严格。但即使他们会说，‘哦，天哪，我这个时候得去上班’，他们也知道自己在做什么。我有很棒的父母。
And friends of mine that had photography class in high school would develop the film and make prints and I'd take them back to the track and give 'em away or try and sell them. Much to my parents' dismay, I majored in photography in college.
我的朋友们在高中上过摄影课，他们会冲洗胶卷，打印照片，然后我把它们带回赛道，把它们送人，或者试着卖掉。令我父母非常沮丧的是，我在大学主修摄影。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Girls marry to please parents, widows to please themselves.
女孩子结婚是为了取悦父母，寡妇结婚是为了取悦自己。
We're kind of wishing some parents would come back. And of course we're uneasy about the fact that we wish they'd come back - I mean, what's wrong with us?
我们有点希望一些父母能回来。当然，我们对希望他们回来的事实感到不安——我的意思是，我们怎么了?
Some twins feel like they need to compare themselves to each other, but we're not that way. That's because of my parents, though, and having six kids in the family.
有些双胞胎觉得他们需要互相比较，但我们不是这样的。但那是因为我的父母，还有家里六个孩子。
Children begin by loving their parents; after a time they judge them; rarely, if ever, do they forgive them.
孩子从爱父母开始;过了一段时间，他们审判他们;他们很少会原谅他们。
My parents are really well intended, and I think their way of dealing with things is denial and guilt. Nobody wanted to talk about it. But all I did was blame myself.
我父母的本意是好的，我认为他们处理事情的方式是否认和内疚。没有人愿意谈论它。但我所做的一切都是责备自己。
