A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
受欢迎程度
Popularity
An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it.
一个错误不会因为成倍的传播而变成真理，也不会因为没有人看到它而变成错误。
I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure: which is: Try to please everybody.
我不能给你成功的公式，但我可以给你失败的公式:那就是:试着取悦每一个人。
Journalism is popular, but it is popular mainly as fiction. Life is one world, and life seen in the newspapers is another.
新闻是受欢迎的，但它主要是作为小说而受欢迎。生活是一个世界，报纸上看到的生活是另一个世界。
Oxford is Oxford: not a mere receptacle for youth, like Cambridge. Perhaps it wants its inmates to love it rather than to love one another.
牛津就是牛津:不像剑桥，它不仅仅是年轻人的聚集地。也许它想让它的囚犯爱它，而不是彼此相爱。
I think the rising and falling popularity of areas like hard SF and far-future SF is, to a considerable extent, the same as any other fashion.
我认为硬科幻和未来科幻等领域的流行程度的上升和下降，在很大程度上和其他时尚是一样的。
An actor's popularity is fleeting. His success has the life expectancy of a small boy who is about to look into a gas tank with a lighted match.
演员的名气是稍纵即逝的。他的成功有一个小男孩的预期寿命，他即将用一根点燃的火柴往油箱里看。
There are few cases in which mere popularity should be considered a proper test of merit; but the case of song-writing is, I think, one of the few.
很少有情况下，仅仅是受欢迎程度就应该被视为一种适当的优点测试;但我认为，写歌是少数几个例子之一。
My guess is that people look at me and project their own values - importance of family, ego is healthy but not the biggest thing. I don't know. I can't explain my popularity.
我的猜测是，人们看着我，投射出他们自己的价值观——家庭的重要性，自我是健康的，但不是最重要的。我不知道。我无法解释我的受欢迎程度。
There is a price for popularity. Critics look for your weaknesses, your flaws, anything that makes the work seem like a fluke and not seem worthy of all the attention it's getting.
受欢迎是有代价的。批评家会寻找你的弱点，你的缺点，任何让你的作品看起来像侥幸而不值得所有关注的东西。
I can analyse the trajectory of my popularity and find out why the peak was a peak and the valley was a valley - grapple with it that way - but I prefer not to analyse it that much.
我可以分析我的人气轨迹，找出为什么顶峰是顶峰，而硅谷是硅谷——用这种方式来解决这个问题——但我更愿意不去分析太多。
When it comes to the recording and writing, it's still mostly Mickey and I. But now there's this whole live entity that's a whole different thing, and it seems to be where we're gaining the most popularity.
在录音和写作方面，主要还是米奇和我。但现在，整个现场的情况完全不同了，这似乎是我们最受欢迎的地方。
Since I started in Nascar, popularity has definitely gone up. I've become more attractive and helpful to companies that are looking for spokespersons. So from that perspective, things are going really well.
自从我加入纳斯卡以来，人气绝对上升了。我变得对寻找代言人的公司更有吸引力，也更有帮助。所以从这个角度来看，一切都很顺利。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Beware of over-great pleasure in being popular or even beloved.
要当心在受欢迎甚至是受人喜爱的过程中过于快乐。
For an idea ever to be fashionable is ominous, since it must afterwards be always old-fashioned.
因为一个想法一旦流行起来就是不祥的预兆，因为它以后一定会过时。
Popularity is not an indication of quality.
受欢迎程度并不代表产品质量。
I don't know one of my friends who is considered a conservative who has not had to go back and thoroughly think through everything. You do a lot of soul-searching - 'cause we are not going to win any popularity contests.
我不认识我的一个朋友，他被认为是一个保守的人，他没有回过头来仔细考虑过所有的事情。你做了很多自我反省，因为我们不会赢得任何人气竞赛。
I'm not trying to win a popularity poll. I'm trying to win football games.
我不是想赢得民意调查。我想赢得足球比赛。
