A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
大学
College
I've taken every writing class I've had available. I took classes in high school, and I took English and writing classes in community college, but I dropped out of college. I also attended a local writing workshop two years ago.
我上了所有我能上的写作课。我在高中上过课，在社区大学上过英语和写作课，但我从大学退学了。两年前，我还参加了一个当地的写作研讨会。
The delicate thing about the university is that it has a mixed character, that it is suspended between its position in the eternal world, with all its corruption and evils and cruelties, and the splendid world of our imagination.
大学的微妙之处在于，它的性格是复杂的，它悬在永恒世界的地位与我们想象的辉煌世界之间，这个世界充满了腐败、邪恶和残酷。
It's actually really great to be a student and an actor, because I get to do this job that I love, then just when I think my head might explode, I get to go to school where they don't really care about what magazine cover I'm on.
实际上，当一名学生和演员真的很棒，因为我可以做我喜欢的工作，当我觉得我的头可能会爆炸的时候，我就可以去学校，在那里他们并不真的关心我在做什么杂志封面。
Usually, when a young girl is pregnant, she drops out of school and concentrates on being a mother. I thought that's what I had to do, but my counselors told me there was no way they would let me drop out. I had too much promise.
通常，当一个年轻的女孩怀孕时，她会辍学，专心做一个母亲。我以为我必须这么做，但我的顾问告诉我，他们不可能让我退学。我有太多的承诺。
My mother bought me a brand new suit for going away to college. We were poor, but she wanted me to have that. It was a powder blue suit with peg pants - you know, skinny at the bottom. I think I made quite an impression with that.
我妈妈给我买了一套全新的衣服准备去上大学。我们很穷，但她想让我拥有它。那是一套粉蓝色的西装，下摆是紧身裤。我想这给我留下了深刻的印象。
Going to Omaha for the College World Series - the people there are tremendous - huge crowds and a lot of excitement. I still remember those days - you make a lot of friends that you never forget when you win a championship like that.
去奥马哈参加大学世界大赛——那里的人非常多——人山人海，非常兴奋。我仍然记得那些日子——你交了很多朋友，当你赢得那样的冠军时，你永远不会忘记他们。
The only trouble here is they won't let us study enough. They are so afraid we shall break down and you know the reputation of the College is at stake, for the question is, can girls get a college degree without ruining their health?
这里唯一的问题是他们不让我们好好学习。他们害怕我们会崩溃，你知道这所大学的声誉岌岌可危，因为问题是，女孩能在不损害健康的情况下获得大学学位吗?
I think my parents were happy that I'd gone to university and gotten a degree in history so they thought, 'Well if acting doesn't work for him, he can always become a history teacher or something.' Fortunately, the acting worked out.

It's always strange being a kid on the set, because you're treated like an equal when you're working. But then when you break, the other actors go back to their trailers to take naps and drink beer, and I have to, like, go do school.

In my case, I was born to parents who were very young, and I don't think they were entirely ready to have a child. My dad was going to college and working two or three jobs at the same time, and my mum was working and going to school.
就我而言，我的父母都很年轻，我认为他们还没有完全准备好要孩子。我爸爸要上大学，同时做两份或三份工作，我妈妈一边工作一边上学。
I was probably more scared of my high school exams than I was of the Oscars. At the time you think it's everything and if you don't do well, your life's over. Opportunities are gone. So the more you do it, the less the fear is present.
我可能更害怕高中考试，而不是奥斯卡颁奖典礼。当你认为这就是一切，如果你做得不好，你的生活就结束了。机会已经过去了。所以你做的越多，恐惧就越少。
My daughter is a freshman in college and my son is - well, our daughter and our son - is a sophomore in college. So they come home on selected weekends, they come home on vacations and they're home in the summer, although they have jobs.
我女儿是大学一年级学生，我儿子——嗯，我们的女儿和儿子——是大学二年级学生。所以他们选择周末回家，假期回家，夏天回家，尽管他们有工作。
KEEP EXPLORING

Students now arrive at the university ignorant and cynical about our political heritage, lacking the wherewithal to be either inspired by it or seriously critical of it.
