Have you heard of this new thing called the internet? It's giving people new expectations. It's allowing them to become their own expert. Knowledge lies anxious at their fingertips. Gloss over the truth in your advertising and you'll quickly be dismissed as a poser.
你听说过互联网这个新事物吗?它给人们带来了新的期望。这让他们成为自己的专家。知识焦虑地躺在他们的指尖。在你的广告中掩盖真相，你很快就会被当作装模作样的人而被解雇。
You know, in my music career there was a moment where the irony was just so heavy. There were people in my audience that were the reason I developed neuroses. These people that tortured my life were using my art, my poetry, as fuel for them, to torture other people.
你知道，在我的音乐生涯中，曾经有那么一个时刻，讽刺是如此沉重。我的听众中有些人就是我患上神经症的原因。这些折磨我生活的人，用我的艺术，我的诗歌，作为他们的燃料，来折磨别人。
It is shallow people who think beauty is frivolous or excessive. If you are bringing beauty and god, you are enriching the country. Rice feeds the body, books feed the mind, beauty feeds the soul. It is one thing I can really be proud of and stand tall in the world.
肤浅的人认为美是轻浮或过分的。如果你带来美和神，你就是在使这个国家富足。大米喂养身体，书籍喂养思想，美丽喂养灵魂。这是一件我真的可以自豪，站在世界上高。
If I was on a march at the moment I would be saying to everyone: 'Be honest with each other. Admit there are limitless possibilities in relationships, and love as many people as you can in whatever way you want, and get rid of your inhibitions, and we'll all be happy.
如果当时我在游行，我会对所有人说:‘彼此诚实。承认人际关系中有无限的可能性，以你想要的任何方式爱尽可能多的人，摆脱你的压抑，我们都会快乐。
Voting to go on strike is not a decision working people take lightly and is always accompanied by a strong sense of injustice at work. The impact of losing a day's pay is significant, not least for those in the lowest paid jobs who are already on the tightest budgets.
选择罢工不是工人们轻易做出的决定，而且总是伴随着强烈的工作不公平感。失去一天的工资带来的影响是巨大的，尤其是对于那些已经处于预算最紧张的低收入工作的人来说。
It's an unusual opportunity, a chance for so many people to share in the excitement and the fun of the fact that we may be on to hints as to what the Universe is made out of. I guess the whole point of a prize like this is to be able to get that out into the community.
这是一个不寻常的机会，一个让这么多人分享兴奋和乐趣的机会，因为我们可能正在暗示宇宙是由什么构成的。我想，像这样的奖项的意义就在于能够把它推广到社会中去。
I'm really an inner spirit that only makes itself known through the music. A lot of people think I'm an introvert, or quiet and moody. I've even heard some people say that there's a certain mystery or darkness about me. I'm not that way. I'm just really into what I do.
我真的是一个内在的灵魂，只有通过音乐才能让自己为人所知。很多人认为我是一个内向的人，或者安静、喜怒无常。我甚至听一些人说我身上有某种神秘或黑暗。我不是那样的。我只是对我所做的很感兴趣。
Many politicians are in the habit of laying it down as a self-evident proposition that no people ought to be free till they are fit to use their freedom. The maxim is worthy of the fool in the old story who resolved not to go into the water till he had learned to swim.
许多政治家习惯于把它作为一个不言自明的命题，即在人们能够充分利用他们的自由之前，没有人应该是自由的。这句格言就像古老故事里的傻瓜，他决定在学会游泳之前不下水。
It costs so much to promote something these days that almost always safety is the preferred option, reference back to things which have been successful in the past. Also, people are simply not given the time to develop and find themselves and their audience as we were.
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。
There may be some backward countries where the mass of the people are on a subsistence level and where, as an aftermath of wars or partial crop failures, the standard of living has to be drastically reduced, but this certainly is not the case in our prosperous nations.
可能有一些落后的国家，那里的人民群众处于勉强糊口的水平，由于战争或部分作物歉收，那里的生活水平必须大幅度降低，但在我们这些繁荣的国家，情况肯定不是这样。
I try to tell the people that are sort of new here when they come in and do their flights and whatever, the things that you remember most after your flights are the interactions you've had with your crew. Those are the most satisfying things you take away from a flight.
我试着告诉那些刚来这里的人当他们来做他们的飞行之类的，你在飞行后记得最深刻的事情是你和你的机组人员之间的互动。这些都是你从飞行中得到的最令人满意的东西。
I always like to take my time and examine the two candidates, see not only the two candidates but the policies they will bring in, the people they will bring in, who they might appoint to the Supreme Court, and look at the whole range of issues before making a decision.
我总是喜欢把我的时间和检查两个候选人,不仅看到两位候选人,他们将带来的政策,他们将带来的人,他们可能会任命最高法院,看看在做决定之前,整个范围的问题。

沿着这个主题，再读几句。

I don't think I would be a writer if I had stayed in Chile. I would be trapped in the chores, in the family, in the person that people expected me to be.

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。

我不喜欢那个人。我必须更了解他。
If liberty means anything at all it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.
如果自由意味着什么，那就是告诉人们他们不想听的话的权利。
I don't know the first real thing about the dating game. I don't know how to talk to a specific person and connect. I just think you have to go to person by person and do the best you can with people in general.
我对约会游戏一无所知。我不知道如何和一个特定的人交谈并建立联系。我只是认为你必须一个人一个人地去，尽可能地与人相处。
