A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
玩
Play
It strikes me that these days, clubs don't even want players who can truly play any more; they just want athletes, quick guys who don't have a football brain, can just run and run; some of them, Jesus. I can never imagine acting like that.
令我震惊的是,如今的俱乐部甚至不再需要真正能踢球的球员;他们只是想要运动员,那些没有足球头脑的快节奏的家伙,可以不停地跑;有些人,耶稣。我无法想象那样的行为。
If a professional musician in a symphony orchestra is playing Beethoven. But this particular orchestra have played this particular chestnut so many times, they can play it in their sleep. Does the genius remain present in the music or not?
如果一个专业的音乐家在交响乐团演奏贝多芬。但是这个乐团已经演奏了很多次栗子了,他们可以在睡梦中演奏。天才是否还存在于音乐中?
My goal was to play drums, but my father made me take piano lessons. He told me I needed to learn to read music first, so I took lessons for six years. I thank God that he made me take those lessons, because it taught me a tremendous amount.
我的目标是打鼓,但我父亲让我上钢琴课。他告诉我要先学会读音乐,所以我上了六年的课。我感谢上帝让我接受这些教训,因为它教会了我很多。
And I saw the sax line-up that he had behind him and I thought, I'm going to learn the saxophone. When I grow up, I'm going to play in his band. So I sort of persuaded my dad to get me a kind of a plastic saxophone on the hire purchase plan.
我看到他身后的萨克斯管,我想,我要学习萨克斯管。当我长大了,我要在他的乐队演奏。所以我说服我爸爸在分期付款购买计划中给我买了一种塑料萨克斯管。
But at some point, we've got to have disciplined play and have got to coach better. I'm not putting it on the players. We've got to coach them to tackle and block better. It's as simple as that. If we can do those things, we'll have a chance.
但在某种程度上,我们必须有纪律的比赛,必须有更好的教练。我不会把它强加给球员。我们必须训练他们更好地阻截和防守。就是这么简单。如果我们能做到这些,我们就有机会。
What I've been telling everyone that loves Carolina football is that we are going to put a team out there that, number one, is in good shape. We're going to be fit, we are going to be able to play the whole game and we're not going to poop out.
我一直在告诉所有热爱卡罗莱纳足球的人,我们将组建一支状态良好的球队。我们将变得健康,我们将能够踢完整场比赛,我们不会被淘汰。
I named it that because more or less each person from the band used to play in other bands and when we left respective bands other members from those bands all sort of changed round. It was a big sort of move thing. I got it from that, I suppose.
我之所以这样命名,是因为乐队里的每个人或多或少都曾在其他乐队里演奏过,当我们离开各自的乐队时,乐队里的其他成员都换了乐队。这是一个很大的移动。我想我就是从那里学来的。
I saw it as a challenge to play with Pat and we put hours and hours into it, usually on the bus. The trick was to find something that we both wanted to play within our different styles which would add up to being greater than the sum of its parts.
我认为和帕特一起玩是一种挑战,我们投入了很多时间,通常是在公交车上。诀窍在于找到一些我们都想在不同风格中发挥的东西,这些东西加起来会比它的各个部分的总和还要大。
When you play a doctor, you have to look like you can do it but you don't actually go and do it. It's not like you learn how to cut open somebody and go do surgery. You have to think of a human being and not play the idea of what that would look like.
当你扮演一名医生时,你必须看起来你能做到,但实际上你并没有去做。这不像你学习如何切开一个人然后去做手术。你必须想到一个人,而不是去想象那是什么样子。
When I went to school, you had to take art, you had to play an instrument. You had to play an instrument. But it's all degraded since then. I do not know what kind of nation we are that is cutting art, music, and gym out of the public-school curriculum.
当我上学的时候,你必须学习艺术,你必须演奏乐器。你必须演奏乐器。但从那时起,一切都退化了。我不知道我们是什么样的国家,把艺术、音乐和体育从公立学校的课程中剔除。
Jazz is all about improvisation and it's about the moment in time, doing it this way now, and you'll never do it this way twice. I've studied the masters. Why would I want to play ball after the guys who sit on a bench? I want to play like Michael Jordan.
爵士乐就是即兴创作,它是关于时间的瞬间,现在这样做,你永远不会再这样做两次。我读过硕士。我为什么要跟坐在板凳上的人打球?我想要像迈克尔乔丹那样打球。
And when we used to play and fight in the streets in Brooklyn and I would get hurt or something, my mother would always come out and save me. So that sort of postponed the inevitable about getting a good beating, without having somebody to come and save you.
当我们在布鲁克林街头玩耍和打架的时候,我受伤了,我妈妈总会出来救我。这就推迟了不可避免的挨打,没有人来救你。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Oddly, when I started to make the record, I wasn't aware I was making a record. I just was sort of disgusted with the whole thing and sequestered myself in the basement and started playing the piano just for something to do.
奇怪的是,当我开始录制唱片时,我并不知道我在录制唱片。我对整件事有点反感,把自己关在地下室里,开始弹钢琴,只是为了找点事做。
I've never been in a bad play. There might have been bad productions and I might have been bad in them, but I've never been in a play that wasn't interesting or worthwhile doing on some level.

我们过去经常在户外玩耍,不是在联赛中,而是在业余时间。
Maintain 'baseball cards' and/or 'believability matrixes' for your people. Imagine if you had baseball cards that showed all the performance stats. You could see what they did well and poorly and call on the right people to play the right positions in a very transparent way.
为你的员工维护“棒球卡”和/或“可信矩阵”。想象一下,如果你有棒球卡,上面显示了所有的性能数据。你可以看到他们做得好与不好,并呼吁正确的人以一种非常透明的方式扮演正确的角色。
Alas, regardless of their doom, the little victims play! No sense have they of ills to come, nor care beyond today.
唉,不管他们的命运如何,这些小受害者还是在玩耍!他们不知道将来会有什么灾难,也不关心今天以后会发生什么。
