A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
人民
People
The people on the business side in the music business are kind of different from the theatre business. I think it's partly because there are different pressures on the industries.
从事音乐业务的人和从事戏剧业务的人是不同的。我认为部分原因在于行业面临着不同的压力。
It's nice that people want to compliment you in some superficial way, but I've never considered that that's how I might be categorized. I guess it's better than being called ugly.
人们想用一些肤浅的方式赞美你,这很好,但我从来没有想过这可能是我被归类的方式。我想这总比被称为丑要好。
Tell people there's an invisible man in the sky who created the universe, and the vast majority will believe you. Tell them the paint is wet, and they have to touch it to be sure.
告诉人们天空中有一个看不见的人创造了宇宙,绝大多数人都会相信你。告诉他们油漆是湿的,他们必须摸一下才能确定。
The majority of people perform well in a crisis and when the spotlight is on them; it's on the Sunday afternoons of this life, when the nobody is looking, that the spirit falters.
大多数人在危机中表现良好,当人们关注他们的时候;在这一生的每个星期天下午,当没有人注视的时候,这种精神就会动摇。
I want people to be drawn into the space of the work. And a lot of people are like me in that they have relatively short attention spans. So I shoot for the window of opportunity.
我希望人们被吸引到作品的空间中。很多人和我一样,注意力持续时间相对较短。所以我向机会之窗射击。
Two people in a conversation amount to four people talking. The four are what one person says, what he really wanted to say, what his listener heard, and what he thought he heard.
两个人的谈话相当于四个人的谈话。这四个是一个人说了什么,他真正想说什么,他的听众听到了什么,他认为他听到了什么。
What I really resent most about people sticking labels on you is that it cuts off all the other elements of what you are because it can only deal with black and white; the cartoon.
我最讨厌人们给你贴上标签,因为它切断了你身上所有其他的东西,因为它只能处理黑白问题;这幅漫画。
Simple people have much to offer. We, too, in return, must give to them to the best of our abilities. We must, with all our heart, try to help them acquire what they truly deserve.
简单的人有很多可以提供。作为回报,我们也必须尽我们最大的能力给予他们。我们必须全心全意帮助他们获得他们真正应得的东西。
I don't think there's any such thing as teaching people photography, other than influencing them a little. People have to be their own learners. They have to have a certain talent.
我不认为有什么像教人们摄影,除了影响他们一点。人们必须成为自己的学习者。他们必须有一定的才能。
It's really important to remember that most people in the public eye are human for a start and a lot of things that you read in the media get slightly misconstrued and manipulated.
重要的是要记住,公众眼中的大多数人一开始都是人,你在媒体上读到的很多东西都会被轻微地误解和操纵。
I write a lot of songs people don't hear. I really just enjoy the process. I finish 'em all. I don't think there's a whole lot of difference between the bad ones and the good ones.
我写了很多人们听不到的歌。我真的很享受这个过程。我都吃完了。我不认为坏的和好的之间有太多的区别。
I suppose if I'd got a brilliant first and done research I might still be a don today, but I hope not. People become dons because they are incapable of doing anything else in life.
我想,如果我先做了一个出色的研究,我今天可能还是个老头子,但我希望不是。人们之所以成为教师,是因为他们在生活中没有能力做任何其他事情。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。

如今,推广某项产品的成本如此之高,以至于几乎总是把安全作为首选选项,回顾过去成功的产品。而且,人们根本没有时间去发展,去发现他们自己和他们的观众,就像我们一样。

没有坏天气这种事,只有软弱的人。
