A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

The repercussions of what you put out and what people gravitate to in your music never registered at all. I never had that thing that maybe other bands have - a specific idea of what they are and what their sound is.
你在音乐中表现出来的东西和人们被吸引到你音乐中的东西所产生的影响从来没有被注意到。我从来没有过其他乐队可能有的东西——他们是什么,他们的声音是什么,一个特定的想法。
One of the things I learned, one of the strangest things, is how to think. There was nothing else to do. I couldn't see people, or go for a walk in the forest. All I had was my head and my books, and I thought a lot.
我学到的一件事,也是最奇怪的一件事,就是如何思考。没有别的事可做。我看不见人,也不能到森林里去散步。我所拥有的只是我的脑袋和我的书,我想了很多。
I think when two people get together, their past is their past. Their reputations are reputations. You can only take someone the way you find them... on face value. I think that was how we were both, the way we were.
我想当两个人在一起的时候,他们的过去就是他们的过去。他们的名声就是名声。你只能带着某人走你找到他们的路…在票面价值。我想这就是我们过去的样子。
Why do people believe that there are dangerous implications of the idea that the mind is a product of the brain, that the brain is organized in part by the genome, and that the genome was shaped by natural selection?
为什么人们认为思维是大脑的产物,大脑部分由基因组组成,基因组是由自然选择形成的这种观点有危险的含义?
Having a college degree gave me the opportunity to be... well-rounded. Also, the people I met at the university, most of them are still my colleagues now. People I've known for years are all in the industry together.
拥有大学学位使我有机会成为……全面的。此外,我在大学里遇到的人,他们中的大多数现在仍然是我的同事。我认识多年的人都在这个行业工作。
Directly after the show people might have responded better to it, but who really knows. It did what it did and while it seems like a failure to most but it was a success for me and has given me so many opportunities.
节目一结束,观众们的反应可能会更好,但谁知道呢。它做到了它所做的,虽然对大多数人来说这似乎是一个失败,但对我来说却是一个成功,给了我很多机会。
What's so touching is the way we fight the war right until the moment our business is taken care of and then we turn on a dime and we immediately start taking care of people. It's like a shock and aw shucks campaign.
最让人感动的是我们打这场战争的方式,直到我们的业务得到妥善处理,然后我们的情况急转直下,我们立即开始照顾人们。这就像一个令人震惊的活动。
Also I just think I've been lucky enough to have great parents, and I've had good people around me who have always been honest with me, who would give me a purely metaphorical slap if I ever got too big for my boots.
我觉得我很幸运,我有很棒的父母,我身边有很多好人,他们一直对我很诚实,如果我长得太胖,他们会打我一巴掌。
People come out to see the players. When do you see a manager anyway? When he's out on the field arguing with the umpires, making a fool of himself and you know you can't win, and when he brings out the line-up card.
人们出来看球员。你什么时候见经理?当他在场上和裁判争论,出丑,你知道你赢不了的时候,当他拿出阵容牌的时候。
The piano is the X factor. People have a tough time following the structures when there's no piano there, spelling it out. It makes it more easily understood, particularly to people who don't know as much about music.
钢琴是X音素。当没有钢琴的时候,人们很难理解这些结构。它使它更容易理解,特别是对那些不太懂音乐的人来说。
Many people see technology as the problem behind the so-called digital divide. Others see it as the solution. Technology is neither. It must operate in conjunction with business, economic, political and social system.
许多人认为技术是所谓数字鸿沟背后的问题。其他人则认为这是解决方案。技术既不是。它必须与商业、经济、政治和社会制度共同运作。
Those who decide to use leisure as a means of mental development, who love good music, good books, good pictures, good plays, good company, good conversation - what are they? They are the happiest people in the world.
那些决定把休闲作为心智发展手段的人,那些喜欢好音乐、好书、好画、好剧本、好伙伴、好对话的人——他们是什么?他们是世界上最幸福的人。

I was a different person before I started to write. When I realized I could be a songwriter and that people would listen - that was when I started feeling good in my life.
在我开始写作之前,我是一个不同的人。当我意识到我可以成为一名作曲家,人们会倾听时,我的生活开始变得美好起来。
A drunkard would not give money to sober people. He said they would only eat it, and buy clothes and send their children to school with it.

My dad used to say all the time to go out and win this inning. It's one pitch, one inning, one game at a time. It sounds ridiculous, but people who are good at doing it have more success.
我爸爸以前总是说要出去赢这一局。这是一个投球,一局,一场比赛。这听起来很荒谬,但擅长做这件事的人会更成功。
