玩
Play

由于社会保障制度在承诺给年轻员工的养老金和支付能力之间存在巨大差距,私人储蓄可能需要在为年轻员工制定退休计划方面发挥更大的作用。
You never know how long Federer is going to play, but in my opinion he has at least one or two more grand slams to win. It depends how long he stays motivated. For me, he is the greatest player to ever play the game.
你永远不知道费德勒会打多久,但在我看来,他至少还有一两个大满贯要赢。这取决于他保持动力的时间。对我来说,他是有史以来最伟大的球员。
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。
The thing is, I want to play real characters and not all girls can be pretty. The thing is, you get these girls who say 'I'm a character actor' then you see them in a role and nothing has really changed but the outfit.
问题是,我想扮演真实的角色,并不是所有的女孩都能漂亮。问题是,你看到这些女孩说“我是一个角色演员”,然后你看到她们在一个角色中,除了服装,什么都没有改变。
A lot of musicians aren't proud; they'll do other work, just to be able to play music. I guess that's the way it's always going to be - musicians will have to suffer to a certain degree in order to obtain their outlet.
很多音乐家并不骄傲;他们会做其他工作,只是为了能演奏音乐。我想这是永远都会发生的事——音乐家们将不得不遭受一定程度的痛苦,以获得他们的发泄。
I know I play into that image out there, but I try to say it is a fantasy. I look at my own pictures and wish I could look like that. There are probably five people in this whole entire world who actually look like that.

But you have to take all of those things, you have to take into consideration the paths, the roadways, how much cloud cover there is, how much foliage cover there is, whether there are streams, all of that comes into play.
但是你必须考虑到所有这些,你必须考虑到路径,道路,有多少云覆盖,有多少树叶覆盖,是否有小溪,所有这些都发挥作用。
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。
Being an actor gives you a chance to play all kinds of roles, very moving and dramatic on one project, silly and girlish on another. That's the most interesting thing out this business, you get to keep reinventing yourself.
作为一名演员,你有机会扮演各种各样的角色,在一个项目中非常感人和富有戏剧性,在另一个项目中又愚蠢又幼稚。这是这一行最有趣的事情,你要不断地重塑自己。
However, most of my part, I play a pediatrician, and most of my role had to do with being in another place, staying at the hospital and trying to save kids and stay until people could come. So, it was more based on reality.
然而,我扮演的大部分角色,是一名儿科医生,我的大部分角色都是在另一个地方,呆在医院里,试图拯救孩子们,直到有人来。所以,它更多的是基于现实。
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。
