A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

愿景

Vision

I don't think just scaring people is enough. That worked during the freeze days to a major extent, but we really didn't achieve that much even at that time. You have to have more, you have to give people hope and a vision of a better world.

我认为仅仅吓唬人是不够的。在很大程度上,这在冰天雪地的日子里行得通,但即使在那个时候,我们也没有取得多大的成就。你必须拥有更多,你必须给人们希望和一个更美好世界的愿景。

I think in a way, you're doomed, once you can envision something. You're sort of doomed to make it happen. I've found that the moment I can envision leaving a relationship, that's usually the moment that the relationship starts to fall apart.

我认为在某种程度上,一旦你能想象一些事情,你就注定要失败。你注定要让它发生。我发现当我能想象离开一段关系的时候,通常就是这段关系开始破裂的时候。

Imagine an eye unruled by man-made laws of perspective, an eye unprejudiced by compositional logic, an eye which does not respond to the name of everything but which must know each object encountered in life through an adventure of perception.

想象一只不受透视法的人造法则支配的眼睛,一只不受构成逻辑偏见的眼睛,一只对一切事物的名称没有反应的眼睛,但它必须通过感知的冒险来认识生活中遇到的每一个对象。

I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it, but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor.

我发现这个世界上最伟大的事情不在于我们站在哪里,而在于我们朝哪个方向前进:为了到达天堂的港口,我们必须有时迎风航行,有时逆风航行,但我们必须航行,不随波逐流,也不抛锚停泊。

The short-term vision is: I research on something which I can use tomorrow, and for some politicians it is even better if it's today. But if you do this, you can only do targeted research. If you only do targeted research, you lose the side-routes.

我的短期愿景是:研究一些明天可以使用的东西,对一些政客来说,如果是今天就更好了。但如果你这样做,你只能做有针对性的研究。如果你只做有针对性的研究,你就会迷失方向。

From my very first day in the Mayor's office, I have worked closely with the Council members who share our vision of a city hall that really protects taxpayers and cares... yes... about the little things that make a big difference in people's lives.

从我进入市长办公室的第一天起,我就与市政委员会成员密切合作,他们与我有共同的愿景,那就是建立一个真正保护纳税人、关心他们的市政厅……是的……关于那些对人们的生活产生重大影响的小事。
