A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
人民
People
What I wanted was for everyone listening to understand that these things mattered - not necessarily for me, but in this particular forum they mattered in terms of whether of not we were getting a person who should sit on the Supreme Court.
我想让每个听众都明白，这些事情很重要——不一定是对我来说，但在这个特殊的论坛上，这些事情很重要，关系到我们是否能找到一个应该担任最高法院法官的人。
Once people start making comparisons to a player of the past, they want you to be that player. I try to go out there and create my own image, my own style, my own type of game. Right now I can't even think of one guy I've been compared to.
一旦人们开始拿过去的球员做比较，他们希望你成为那个球员。我尝试着去创造我自己的形象，我自己的风格，我自己的游戏类型。现在我甚至想不出一个人能和我相比。
The art world can be very intimidating because it's just so vast. You talk to people who are really clued in to all the young artists and coming into it you're never going to be able to catch up immediately, even though there's pressure to.
艺术世界是非常可怕的，因为它是如此的广阔。你和那些真正了解所有年轻艺术家的人交谈，即使有压力，你也不可能马上跟上他们。
I know there are people who don't like their audience or like the experience of being recognized or celebrated, but my audience has been very good - they don't bother me and when they do contact me it's usually on the nicest possible terms.
我知道有些人不喜欢他们的听众，或者不喜欢被认可或被赞美的经历，但我的听众非常好——他们不打扰我，当他们联系我时，通常是用最友好的方式。
Some white people hate black people, and some white people love black people, some black people hate white people, and some black people love white people. So you see it's not an issue of black and white, it's an issue of Lovers and Haters.
有些白人讨厌黑人，有些白人喜欢黑人，有些黑人讨厌白人，有些黑人喜欢白人。所以你看，这不是一个黑白分明的问题，这是一个爱与恨的问题。
When a reader enters the pages of a book of poetry, he or she enters a world where dreams transform the past into knowledge made applicable to the present, and where visions shape the present into extraordinary possibilities for the future.
当读者进入一本诗集，他或她进入一个世界，在那里梦想把过去变成适用于现在的知识，在那里幻想把现在塑造成未来的非凡可能性。
I've been with the same person for a very long time but I'm just non-conventional in that way. I don't think people need to be married. I think a lot of people need that piece of paper, but I don't think everybody needs that to feel secure.
我和同一个人在一起很长一段时间了，但我就是不习惯那样。我不认为人们需要结婚。我想很多人都需要那张纸，但我不认为每个人都需要它来获得安全感。
People forget that I'm a human being, just because I play a sport that everybody loves. We're human. We're not invincible. We share the same feelings and emotions that people on the outside feel. I don't think people really understand that.
人们忘记了我是一个人，仅仅因为我从事一项人人喜爱的运动。我们人类。我们不是不可战胜的。我们和外界的人有着同样的感受和情感。我不认为人们真正理解这一点。
What's even more unsettling is the way these people hide what they're doing from the public. They strip the labels off miracle wheat when they ship it, for instance, and say, 'Watch out. Don't plant too much and don't depend on it too much.'
更令人不安的是，这些人对公众隐瞒自己的所作所为。比如，他们在发货时把神奇小麦的标签撕掉，然后说，‘小心’。不要种太多，也不要太依赖它。”
Even though this is late in an election year, there is no way we can go forward except together and no way anybody can win except by serving the people's urgent needs. We cannot stand still or slip backwards. We must go forward now together.
虽然现在已经是大选年，但我们只有携手前进，只有满足人民的迫切需要，才能取得胜利。我们不能停滞不前，也不能倒退。我们现在必须共同前进。
Lots of people want to have written; they don't want to write. In other words, they want to see their name on the front cover of a book and their grinning picture on the back. But this is what comes at the end of a job, not at the beginning.
很多人想要写作;他们不想写作。换句话说，他们希望看到自己的名字出现在一本书的封面上，而他们微笑的照片出现在书的背面。但这是工作结束时的情况，而不是刚开始的时候。
What you've done becomes the judge of what you're going to do - especially in other people's minds. When you're traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don't have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road.
你所做的将成为你将要做的事情的评判标准——尤其是在别人的心目中。当你旅行的时候，你就是你现在所在的地方。人们不会对你的过去耿耿于怀。没有昨天在路上。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I do not think much of a man who is not wiser today than he was yesterday.
如果一个人今天没有比昨天更聪明，我认为他没有多大价值。
One of the tragedies of modern times is that people have come to believe that something said by someone in the past, perhaps for illustrative or provocation purposes, actually represents that person's beliefs at the time.
现代的悲剧之一是，人们开始相信某人过去说过的一些话，可能是为了说明或挑衅的目的，实际上代表了那个人当时的信仰。
I think people who have faults are a lot more interesting than people who are perfect.
我认为有缺点的人比完美的人更有趣。
I don't like that man. I must get to know him better.
我不喜欢那个人。我必须更了解他。
The reason a lot of people do not recognize opportunity is because it usually goes around wearing overalls looking like hard work.
很多人没有意识到机遇的存在，是因为它总是穿着工装裤走来走去，看上去像在努力工作。
Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.
在意别人的想法，你就永远是他们的囚犯。
