A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
玩
Playing
There were probably a few games I played where I should not have played, because of some nagging injuries or something. I used to always talk the managers into playing me, because I wanted to play so badly.
可能有几场比赛我打得不应该打，因为一些恼人的伤病或其他原因。我以前总是说服教练让我上场，因为我太想上场了。
When I'm playing with the band or playing with some projects or some of my own stuff it's about the musical approach. That would be the more turntablist approach to things of where it's strictly about music.
当我和乐队一起演奏的时候，或者和一些项目一起演奏的时候，或者和我自己的一些东西一起演奏的时候，都是关于音乐方法的。这将是一种唱机转盘的方式来处理严格意义上的音乐。
There's something about the rawness of the live thing, there's no rhythm guitars behind the solo, nothing other than what you hear the people playing at that moment. It's exciting, it's about the performance.
现场演奏的东西有些生涩，独奏的背后没有节奏吉他，只有你听到人们在演奏的东西。这很令人兴奋，这是关于表演的。
At this stage of my life, I've dedicated myself to playing what I want to play, how I want to play it for the rest of my time. Regardless of whether one might like it or one might not like it, this is where I am.
在我人生的这个阶段，我全身心地投入到演奏我想演奏的东西，以及我想用怎样的方式演奏我的余生。不管你喜不喜欢，这就是我的处境。
Playing well with others is important - not being too flashy, just keeping good time and of course coming up with cool beats. A good snare drum, kick drum, high hat. Just getting good at the hand feet coordination.
和别人玩得好是很重要的——不要太浮华，只要把握好时间，当然要有很酷的节奏。一个好的小军鼓，踢鼓，高礼帽。只是手脚协调得好。
The type of band that I have now, the type of music that we're playing you either like it or you dislike it. If you dislike it, you probably don't know why. By the same token, you can't even really say why you like it.
我现在的乐队类型，我们演奏的音乐类型你要么喜欢，要么不喜欢。如果你不喜欢它，你可能不知道为什么。出于同样的原因，你甚至不能真正说出你为什么喜欢它。
Scientists do stand on the shoulders of giants, just as do writers. Conversely, in the arts we do make discoveries. We do refine our tools. So I am arguing with, or at least playing with, the idea that art never improves.
科学家确实站在巨人的肩膀上，就像作家一样。相反，在艺术方面，我们确实有所发现。我们确实在改进我们的工具。所以我反对，或者至少是玩弄，艺术永远不会进步的观点。
I think that my career speaks for itself and shows the type of player I am. I have never had a teammate who didn't enjoy playing with me. There are always going to be skeptics, but chemistry will definitely not be an issue.
我认为我的职业生涯说明了一切，也展示了我是哪种类型的球员。我从来没有一个队友不喜欢和我一起踢球。总会有人持怀疑态度，但化学肯定不是问题。
I don't see any reason to quit playing. I'll be doing this at least till I get to a hundred and something. You know, I ain't got far to go. But I'm still going to be playing, as long as I have good ideas, and can play as I do.
我看不出有任何理由停止打球。我至少要干到一百岁左右。你知道，我没有走多远。但只要我有好主意，而且能像现在这样打球，我还是会继续打球。
Sometimes you can press a little bit and you're trying to do too much and you're trying too hard. You want to win so bad and you want to help the team so badly that you end up trying too much instead of letting the play come to you.
有时候你可以稍微按一下，但你想做的太多了，你想得太努力了。你太想赢球了，你太想帮助球队了，以至于你最终付出了太多努力，而不是让机会来找你。
Take a look at your natural river. What are you? Stop playing games with yourself. Where's your river going? Are you riding with it? Or are you rowing against it? Don't you see that there is no effort if you're riding with your river?
看看你的天然河流。你是什么?停止和自己玩游戏。你的河要去哪里?你要和它一起骑车吗?还是你在与之对抗?难道你没有看到，如果你和你的河流一起骑行，就没有任何努力了吗?
Actors use who they are to be someone else, but I would hate to ever think I'm playing myself. It's imagining being someone else that is the key motivating thing for me. So when people want to know about me, it makes me a bit unnerved.
演员们把自己塑造成另一个人，但我永远不会认为自己在扮演自己。想象成为另一个人是激励我的关键。所以当人们想了解我的时候，这让我有点紧张。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I did have a knack for playing weirdos. There's still sort of this perception of me out there as being this crazy guy.
我确实有玩怪咖的本事。人们仍然认为我是个疯子。

如果你在演奏曲目，你就卡住了。你能做的不多。

如果你找到一个可以打几个位置的人，这对你有很大的帮助。
We do not stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing.
我们不会因为变老而停止玩耍，我们会因为停止玩耍而变老。
