A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
读者
Readers
You can do the best research and be making the strongest intellectual argument, but if readers don't get past the third paragraph you've wasted your energy and valuable ink.
你可以做最好的研究，提出最有力的学术论点，但如果读者没有读完第三段，你就浪费了你的精力和宝贵的墨水。
We're journalists, so our default position is we're not writing editorial. We're trying to bring information to readers, viewers, so that they can make up their own conclusions.
我们是记者，所以我们的默认立场是不写社论。我们正试图把信息带给读者和观众，让他们能自己得出结论。
Lord Chamberlain's readers or controllers, which were a handful of people working directly to him, were a very assorted group of people and some of them tried very hard to be as liberal as they could.
张伯伦勋爵的读者或控制者，也就是少数几个直接与他共事的人，是一个非常多样化的群体，其中一些人非常努力地想要尽可能地自由。
I have more freedom when I write fiction, but my memoirs have had a much stronger impact on my readers. Somehow the 'message,' even if I am not even aware that there is one, is conveyed better in this form.
当我写小说时，我有了更多的自由，但我的回忆录对我的读者产生了更大的影响。不知何故，“信息”，即使我甚至不知道有一个，以这种形式更好地传达。
I believe we should spend less time worrying about the quantity of books children read and more time introducing them to quality books that will turn them on to the joy of reading and turn them into lifelong readers.
我认为我们应该少花时间去担心孩子们读了多少书，多花时间给他们介绍一些高质量的书，这些书能让他们享受阅读的乐趣，让他们成为终生的读者。
My approach with social media is to interact with the readers I already have. I do it mostly to procrastinate from my writing. It's an escape. It's the only socializing I get outside of my wife, and she gets sick of me.
我使用社交媒体的方法是与我已有的读者互动。我这样做主要是为了拖延写作。这是一个逃脱。这是我唯一一次和妻子以外的人交往，她对我很反感。
I think that different pleasures work for different readers - a friend of mine won't read anything that's not a cardiovascular sort of page-turner. I tend to care less about plot, but I'm a sucker for humor and strangeness.
我认为不同的快乐适用于不同的读者——我的一个朋友不会读任何不引人入胜的书。我不太在意情节，但我喜欢幽默和奇怪。
Honestly, I don't think I'm a good promoter. I spend almost zero time or effort asking new readers to sample or purchase my work. That's not the job of the author. We should write our best material and leave it up to readers to spread the word.
老实说，我不认为我是一个好的推广者。我几乎没有花任何时间或精力让新读者来品尝或购买我的作品。那不是作者的工作。我们应该写出最好的材料，让读者来传播。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
In any event, it's not exactly a secret to regular readers what my views on the war are.
无论如何，我对战争的看法对普通读者来说并不是什么秘密。
Books belong to their readers.
书是属于读者的。
The secret of successful journalism is to make your readers so angry they will write half your paper for you.
成功的新闻的秘诀是让你的读者非常生气，他们会为你写一半的文章。
Don't be afraid to make a mistake, your readers might like it.
不要害怕犯错，你的读者可能会喜欢。
Readers are what it's all about, aren't they? If not, why am I writing?
读者就是一切，不是吗?如果不是，我为什么要写作?
It remains unbelievable to me that I have any readers beyond my own blood relations - it's a crazy, wild gift.
对我来说，除了我自己的血缘关系之外，还有其他读者，这仍然是难以置信的——这是一种疯狂、狂野的天赋。
