A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

玩

Play

A lot of places we go, when they see the organ coming in, they're expecting rock and roll, but after they hear us play they like it. To me, guitar cuts through-it carries more than organ. But organ has got more guts.

我们去的很多地方,当他们看到管风琴进来的时候,他们期待的是摇滚乐,但是当他们听到我们演奏后,他们就喜欢了。对我来说,吉他很有穿透力——它承载的不仅仅是风琴。但是器官有更多的勇气。

People respect you more if you just play and blow something out than if you take the easier road. That's how we think. You get more respect and people play harder for you. Just play till you blow it. Just play till it goes.

如果你只是玩玩,把事情搞砸,人们会更尊重你。我们就是这么想的。你会得到更多的尊重,人们也会更努力地为你踢球。玩到你把它搞砸为止。一直玩到游戏结束。

If you can play guitar and sing, you can probably get a gig down the road playing at a restaurant, but don't throw your life away chasing something that is so elusive it will only lead you to regret and may turn you bitter.

如果你会弹吉他和唱歌,你很可能在未来的道路上得到一个在餐馆演奏的机会,但不要把你的生活浪费在追逐一些如此难以捉摸的东西上,它只会让你后悔,可能会让你变得痛苦。

You know, I don't play the race card a lot. I'm half-black, half-white, and I'm proud of - my skin is brown. The world sees me as a black man, but my mother didn't raise me as a black man. She didn't raise me as a white guy.

你知道,我不常打种族牌。我有一半黑人血统,一半白人血统,我很自豪——我的皮肤是棕色的。全世界都把我看作一个黑人,但我的母亲并没有把我当作一个黑人抚养成人。她没有把我当白人养大。
