A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
人民
People
People always used to say to me, 'Don't you want your own show? That'd be so cool if you had your own show.' I said, 'You know, it's not gonna happen. So - no.'
人们总是对我说,‘你不想要自己的节目吗?如果你有自己的节目那就太酷了。我说,你知道,这不会发生的。所以,没有。”
When I say something untrue on the air, I mean for it to be transparently untrue. I assume people know when I'm just saying something for effect. Or to be funny.
当我在广播中说一些不真实的东西时,我的意思是它明显不真实。我想人们知道我只是在说些有理有据的话。或者是为了搞笑。
The world will change for the better when people decide they are sick and tired of being sick and tired of the way the world is, and decide to change themselves.
当人们厌倦了这个世界,厌倦了这个世界,并决定改变自己时,世界将变得更好。
I think that has been a benefit to me because I think most people understand quilts and not a lot of people understand paintings. But yet they're looking at one.
我认为这对我有好处,因为我认为大多数人理解棉被,而不是很多人理解绘画。但是他们正在看一个。
People are always saying that I must have been the class clown, with all these voices. No, I was way too shy to be the class clown; I was a class clown's writer.

I don't know about liberal bias, but people of a liberal mentality are probably attracted in greater numbers to the arts than people of a conservative mentality.
我不知道自由主义的偏见是什么,但是有自由主义思想的人可能比有保守思想的人更容易被艺术所吸引。
Hire people who are better than you are, then leave them to get on with it. Look for people who will aim for the remarkable, who will not settle for the routine.
雇佣比你优秀的人,然后让他们自己去做。寻找那些志存高远的人,他们不会墨守成规。
People are so involved with immediate care, but at the same time there needs to be investment in educating people as adolescents when they're still HIV negative.

People weren't buying as many records. My record company did not want me. I went through three record companies, went on tour at the wrong time. It destroyed me.
人们没有买那么多唱片。我的唱片公司不需要我。我经历了三家唱片公司,在错误的时间进行巡演。它毁了我。
Most people go, I wish for world peace. But chaos has a place in balancing out the light and the dark in the world. I don't know if I would wish for world peace.

The PhD system is the real root of the evil of academic snobbery. People who have PhDs consider themselves a priesthood, and inventors generally don't have PhDs.

KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。

对于大多数人来说,他们认定自己有多幸福,就有多幸福。
People that seem so glorious are all show; underneath they are like everyone else.
看起来那么光荣的人都是显摆出来的;其实他们和其他人没什么不同。
It had been startling and disappointing to me to find out that story books had been written by people, that books were not natural wonders, coming of themselves like grass.
当我发现故事书是由人写的,书并不是自然奇观,而是像草一样自己生长出来的时候,我感到既震惊又失望。
The best executive is one who has sense enough to pick good people to do what he wants done, and self-restraint enough to keep from meddling with them while they do it.

All successful people men and women are big dreamers. They imagine what their future could be, ideal in every respect, and then they work every day toward their distant vision, that goal or purpose
所有成功人士,无论男女,都是伟大的梦想家。他们想象他们的未来会是什么样子,在各个方面都很理想,然后他们每天朝着他们的远景、目标或目的努力
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。
