A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
人民
People
There is no private house in which people can enjoy themselves so well as at a capital tavern... No, Sir; there is nothing which has yet been contrived by man by which so much happiness is produced as by a good tavern or inn.
没有一所私人住宅能像首都的小酒馆那样使人们玩得尽兴。不,先生;在人类所创造的一切中,没有一种东西比一家好的客栈或小客栈更能给人带来如此多的快乐。
There is a real diversity of talent and background on the A list so as to better reflect our society in all walks. There are people who have been candidates before, Councillors, Doctors, business leaders, charity campaigners.
为了更好地反映我们社会的方方面面,榜单上的人才和背景可谓五花八门。有些人曾经是候选人,议员,医生,商业领袖,慈善活动家。
I think people believe in heaven because they don't like the idea of dying, because they want to carry on living and they don't like the idea that other people will move into their house and put their things into the rubbish.
我认为人们相信天堂是因为他们不喜欢死亡,因为他们想继续活下去,他们不喜欢别人搬进他们的房子,把他们的东西扔进垃圾。
I've been a little more fortunate, perhaps, than a lot of people have, for the simple reason that I've constantly been moving: so nobody can hit me - you know what I mean? Protesting is not the answer - not along those lines.
也许我比很多人都幸运,原因很简单:我一直在搬家,所以没人能打到我——你懂我的意思吧?抗议并不是解决之道——至少不是沿着这些路线。
I decided about a year ago, and I just feel like I want to see more personal style in people, and I feel like if I'm going to be out there in the public eye, they should see who I am and how I dress, and I feel like it, also.
大约一年前,我决定,我只是觉得我想看到更多的个人风格的人,我觉得如果我要在公众的眼里,他们应该看到我是谁和我衣服,我感觉它。
In that sense, I became politicized because the people in the coal mining villages who were involved in the struggle knew why they were there. But they couldn't understand why some pop star from London would want to be there.
从这个意义上说,我被政治化了,因为参与斗争的煤矿村的人们知道他们为什么在那里。但是他们不明白为什么一些来自伦敦的流行歌星想去那里。
The priesthood is a marriage. People often start by falling in love, and they go on for years without realizing that love must change into some other love which is so unlike it that it can hardly be recognized as love at all.
祭司是婚姻。人们常常从坠入爱河开始,然后持续多年,却没有意识到爱必须转变成另一种爱,而这种爱与爱情如此不同,以至于根本无法被视为爱。
People were talking while I was playing, so I got up and left the stage. I've gotten to the point where I'm not really very patient with patrons rapping during the show. And the people were all nice and quiet when I cam back.
当我演奏时,人们在说话,所以我起身离开了舞台。我已经到了这样一个地步,我对观众在节目中说唱并不是很有耐心。当我回来的时候,人们都很好,很安静。
The voice of the people has been said to be the voice of God; and, however generally this maxim has been quoted and believed, it is not true to fact. The people are turbulent and changing, they seldom judge or determine right.
人民的声音据说是上帝的声音;而且,无论这句格言被引用和相信的程度有多普遍,它都不符合事实。人民是动荡多变的,他们很少判断或决定正确的。
The people at the record company had asked me if I could write a song about my life, my relationship with God, and where I'm from. Well, I can't write a song on purpose, my songs come in a moment of inspiration or desperation.
唱片公司的人问我是否可以写一首关于我的生活,我与上帝的关系,我来自哪里的歌。好吧,我不能故意写一首歌,我的歌来自灵感或绝望的时刻。
Most people have excellent necks. Now they cover them with curtains, which is kind of ridiculous. But there are some beautiful necklines that you can cut into and create wonderful backs, as well as bone structure for the face.
大多数人都有很好的脖子。现在他们用窗帘盖住它们,这有点可笑。但也有一些美丽的领口,你可以剪开,创造出美妙的背部,以及面部的骨骼结构。
The decision to kiss for the first time is the most crucial in any love story. It changes the relationship of two people much more strongly than even the final surrender; because this kiss already has within it that surrender.
在任何爱情故事中,第一次接吻的决定是最重要的。它改变了两个人的关系,甚至比最终的投降还要强烈;因为这个吻已经包含了投降。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Honestly, a lot of people thought that I was on top of the world selling so many millions of records, and that this is the life that everybody would want, but I never got to enjoy any of my success.
老实说,很多人认为我是世界上销售数百万张唱片的冠军,这是每个人都想要的生活,但我从来没有享受过我的任何成功。
The very concept of history implies the scholar and the reader. Without a generation of civilized people to study history, to preserve its records, to absorb its lessons and relate them to its own problems, history, too, would lose its meaning.
历史的概念本身就意味着学者和读者。如果没有一代文明人来研究历史,保存历史记录,吸取历史教训,并把它们与自身的问题联系起来,历史也将失去其意义。
I drink to make other people more interesting.
我喝酒是为了让别人更有趣。
Being a funny person does an awful lot of things to you. You feel that you mustn't get serious with people. They don't expect it from you, and they don't want to see it. You're not entitled to be serious, you're a clown.
做一个有趣的人对你有很多好处。你觉得你不应该对别人太认真。他们不期待你这么做,他们也不想看到你这么做。你没资格严肃,你是个小丑。
People believe what they want to believe.
人们相信他们想相信的。
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
