A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
公共
Public
This persistence as private firms continued because it ensured the maximum of anonymity and secrecy to persons of tremendous public power who dreaded public knowledge of their activities as an evil almost as great as inflation.
这种作为私营公司的坚持之所以继续下去,是因为它确保了拥有巨大公共权力的人享有最大程度的匿名和保密,这些人害怕公众知道他们的活动是一种罪恶,几乎和通货膨胀一样严重。
We call ourselves public servants but I'll tell you this: we as public servants must set an example for the rest of the nation. It is hypocritical for the public official to admonish and exhort the people to uphold the common good.
我们自称是公务员,但我要告诉你们:我们作为公务员,必须为全国树立榜样。公职人员劝诫人民维护公共利益是虚伪的。
I would never jeopardize classified information to be brought out to the public. This information is all open source. There is no reason to worry about classification. It is simply an attempt by bureaucrats to cover their rear ends.
我绝不会把要公之于众的机密信息置于危险境地。这些信息都是开源的。没有理由担心分类。这只不过是官僚们试图掩盖自己的弱点。
The arts can play a vital role in revitalizing neighborhoods, using and improving vacant space, bringing new jobs and new sense of opportunity, and improving public safety by generating more foot traffic and more eyes on the street.
艺术可以在振兴社区、利用和改善空置空间、带来新的就业机会和新的机遇感,以及通过增加行人流量和增加对街道的关注来改善公共安全方面发挥至关重要的作用。
Normally I would not recommend a book that tells you how to make money in the stock market. Most of these books are aimed at gullible folk, and they usually make much more money for their authors than they do for the investing public.
通常我不会推荐一本教你如何在股市赚钱的书。这些书的目标读者大多是容易上当受骗的人,他们通常为作者赚的钱比为投资大众赚的钱多得多。
So, I think it has to do with the product and what you take to the public. If they like it, they're going to come see you, and if they don't, and if you're kind of getting out of the trendy line of things, then they won't come see you.
所以,我认为这与产品和你向公众推出的产品有关。如果他们喜欢,他们会来看你,如果他们不喜欢,如果你有点脱离潮流,他们就不会来看你。
If you're playing the a historical character that's in the public consciousness, then obviously you've got to make an effort to look like that person and there's a huge amount of historical record there that you have to kind of comply to.
如果你扮演的是公众意识中的历史人物,那么很明显你必须努力让自己看起来像那个人,而且你必须遵守大量的历史记录。
I can not, therefore, see how this can be imputed as a crime, or how any of the king's ministers can be blamed for his doing what the public has no concern in; for if the public be well and faithfully served it has no business to ask by whom.
因此,我看不出这怎么能算作犯罪,也看不出国王的大臣们怎么会因为做了公众毫不关心的事而受到指责;因为,如果公众得到良好和忠诚的服务,它就没有问谁的权利。
And I think what people in New Jersey have gotten to know about me over the last decade that I've been in public life is what you see is what you get. And I'm no different when I'm sitting with you than I am when I'm at home or anyplace else.
我想,在过去的十年里,新泽西人对我的了解是,我在公共生活中所看到的就是你所得到的。当我和你坐在一起的时候,我和我在家里或其他任何地方的时候没有什么不同。
My impression is that most women public service workers have a long fuse. Precisely because they care so deeply about services, more than anyone, they still want to find a sensible and fair negotiated agreement. But their patience has run out.
我的印象是,大多数的女性公共服务工作者都是脾气暴躁的。正是因为他们比任何人都更关心服务,所以他们仍然希望找到一个合理和公平的谈判协议。但他们的耐心已经耗尽。
Though every legal task demands this skill, it is especially important in the effort to frame public policy in a way that is properly responsive to human needs and predicaments. The question is always: How will the general rule work in practice?
虽然每一项法律任务都需要这一技能,但在以一种适当响应人类需要和困境的方式制定公共政策方面,这一技能尤其重要。问题总是:一般规则在实践中如何工作?
We must ensure that while eliminating child labor in the export industry, we are also eliminating their labour from the informal sector, which is more invisible to public scrutiny - and thus leaves the children more open to abuse and exploitation.
我们必须确保,在消除出口行业的童工的同时,我们也在消除非正规部门的童工,因为非正规部门更不受公众监督,从而使儿童更容易受到虐待和剥削。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Public discourse has been polluted now for decades by corporate-funded disinformation - not just with climate change but with a host of health, environmental and societal threats. The implications for the planet are grim.
几十年来,公共话语一直受到企业资助的虚假信息的污染——不仅是气候变化,还有一系列健康、环境和社会威胁。这对地球的影响是严峻的。
The flowery style is not unsuitable to public speeches or addresses, which amount only to compliment. The lighter beauties are in their place when there is nothing more solid to say; but the flowery style ought to be banished from a pleading, a sermon, or a didactic work.
华丽的风格并不不适合公众演讲或演说,它们只相当于赞美。当没有更实在的东西可说的时候,那些轻浮的美人就在她们的位置上了;但是华丽的风格应该从恳求、布道或说教作品中去除。
An individual, in promoting his own interest, may injure the public interest; a nation, in promoting the general welfare, may check the interest of a part of its members.
个人在维护自己的利益时,可能损害社会公共利益;一个国家在促进一般福利时,可以检查其部分成员的利益。
Ever since I began to compose, I have remained true to my starting principle: not to write a page because no matter what public, or what pretty girl wanted it to be thus or thus; but to write solely as I myself thought best, and as it gave me pleasure.
自从我开始写作,我就一直坚持着我最初的原则:不写一页,因为无论什么公众,或什么漂亮女孩想要这样或那样;而是按照我自己认为最好的方式,按照它给我带来的快乐来写作。
I tend to stay out of the public eye a little, compared to some of my peers.
与我的一些同龄人相比,我倾向于稍微远离公众的视线。
