A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
现实
Reality
I paint my own reality. The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.
我描绘自己的现实。我所知道的唯一一件事是,我画画是因为我需要,我画任何穿过我脑袋的东西,没有任何其他的考虑。
True, the initial ideas are in general those of an individual, but the establishment of the reality and truth is in general the work of more than one person.
诚然,最初的想法一般是个人的,但建立现实和真理一般是不止一个人的工作。
If you use your mind to study reality, you won't understand either your mind or reality. If you study reality without using your mind, you'll understand both.
如果你用你的头脑去研究现实,你既不会理解你的头脑,也不会理解现实。如果你不用脑来研究现实,你就会理解两者。
I lived a normal life for a number of years. I had kids. I lived up on a farm in Gloucestershire in rural England, and just kind of got back to reality again.
我过了几年正常的生活。我有孩子。我住在英格兰乡村格洛斯特郡的一个农场里,然后又回到了现实。
Good writers define reality; bad ones merely restate it. A good writer turns fact into truth; a bad writer will, more often than not, accomplish the opposite.
好的作家定义现实;坏的只是重述它。一个好的作家能把事实变成真理;一个糟糕的作家往往会适得其反。
Well, when I was younger, I lied all the time, because once you understand the power of lying, it's really like magic because you transform reality for people.
当我年轻的时候,我一直在说谎,因为一旦你明白了说谎的力量,它就像魔法一样,因为你为人们改变了现实。
It seems to me that there are two kinds of trickery: the "fronts" people assume before one another's eyes, and the "front" a writer puts on the face of reality.
在我看来,有两种骗术:一种是人们在彼此眼前呈现的“门面”,另一种是作家在现实面前呈现的“门面”。
First have being in your mind. Make real in your mind then bring that being into reality. The genius is he who sees what is not yet and causes it to come to be.
首先要有自己的思想。把你的想法变成现实,然后把它变成现实。天才是看到尚未发生的事情并使其发生的人。
People think we don't give a toss about the game, but when I walked out of Windsor Park that night I felt lower than a snake's belly. The reality is still there.
人们认为我们对比赛毫不在意,但是那天晚上当我走出温莎公园的时候,我感到非常沮丧。现实依然存在。
There was a time when meanings were focused and reality could be fixed; when that sort of belief disappeared, things became uncertain and open to interpretation.
曾经有一段时间,意义是集中的,现实是固定的;当这种信念消失时,事情就变得不确定了,可以解释了。
Most new jobs won't come from our biggest employers. They will come from our smallest. We've got to do everything we can to make entrepreneurial dreams a reality.
大多数新工作不会来自我们最大的雇主。他们将来自我们最小的。我们必须尽我们所能使创业梦想成为现实。
I'm not very interested in charting a day-to-day familiar reality. I'm always looking for territory in which to explore the BIG subjects, the life-or-death stories.
我对绘制日常熟悉的现实情况不是很感兴趣。我一直在寻找探索重大主题的领域,即生死攸关的故事。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Art is a reality, not a definition; inasmuch as it approaches a reality, it approaches perfection, and inasmuch as it approaches a mere definition, it is imperfect and untrue.
艺术是一种现实,而不是一种定义;因为它接近现实,它就接近完美;因为它接近一个简单的定义,它就不完美,不真实。
There is a moment when nothing can be wiped out and left behind any more, when there is only reality and reality is horrifying.
有那么一刻,没有什么可以被抹去,也没有什么可以被留下,只有现实,而现实是可怕的。
Reality is how we interpret it. Imagination and volition play a part in that interpretation. Which means that all reality is to some extent a fiction.
现实就是我们对它的诠释。想象和意志在这种解释中起了一定作用。这意味着所有的现实在某种程度上都是虚构的。
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
现实不过是一种幻觉,尽管这种幻觉非常顽固。
There is no reality except the one contained within us. That is why so many people live such an unreal life. They take the images outside them for reality and never allow the world within to assert itself.
只有包含在我们内心的真实。这就是为什么那么多人过着如此虚幻的生活。他们把外在的形象当成现实,从不允许内在的世界展现自己。
Might doesn’t make right. Might makes reality.
强权不等于公理。可能是现实。
