A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
抱负
Ambition
A lot of people are like, 'So you want to be famous.' And I'm like, 'No, I want to be good at my craft. I don't care about fame, I don't care if I even ever make it. As long as people know what I am as an actress in this business, I'm set for my career right now.'
很多人会说，‘所以你想出名。而我说，‘不，我想擅长我的手艺。我不在乎名声，我不在乎我是否能成功。只要人们知道我是这个行业的一名女演员，我现在就已经为我的事业做好了准备。”
The next generation of innovators, who need neutrality the most, are not at the bargaining table. They're hard at work in their labs or classrooms, dreaming of the next big thing, and hoping that the Internet is as open to them as it was to the founders of Google.
最需要中立的下一代创新者不在谈判桌上。他们在实验室或教室里努力学习，梦想着下一件大事，希望互联网像谷歌的创始人一样对他们开放。
I am very proud of The Saints and I'm very glad that I've been associated with them all these years, but the next record is the best record... has to be the philosophy for any band that remains even halfway decent or vibrant, and that is kind of where my head's at.
我为圣徒们感到骄傲，我也很高兴这些年我一直和他们在一起，但是下一个记录是最好的记录……对任何一支乐队来说，这都是一种哲学，即使是半正式或充满活力的乐队，这也是我的想法所在。
It's not like a corporate job where the more you accumulate on your resume and the more hours you put in, the higher up you get; it's simply not the case. That being said, if I had known that and known what kind of career I'd get into, I still would have pursued it.
这不像公司的工作，你在简历上积累的越多，投入的时间越多，你的职位就越高;事实并非如此。话虽如此，如果我知道这一点，知道我会从事什么样的职业，我仍然会去追求它。
From the time I was very young, maybe five or six, I thought a lot about being an actress. I didn't tell my friends about my ambitions, though, especially when I got older, because I thought they would not receive them well. I never talked about what I wanted to do.
从我很小的时候，也许五六岁的时候，我就对当演员想了很多。我没有告诉我的朋友我的雄心壮志，尤其是当我长大了，因为我认为他们不会接受他们。我从来没有说过我想做什么。
Those who have wrought great changes in the world never succeeded by gaining over chiefs; but always by exciting the multitude. The first is the resource of intrigue and produces only secondary results, the second is the resort of genius and transforms the universe.
那些给世界带来巨大变化的人从来没有通过征服酋长而获得成功;但总是通过刺激大众。第一个是阴谋的来源，只产生次要的结果，第二个是天才的手段和改造宇宙。
Some say that I should settle down, go slower and not push so hard, so quickly for such transformational change. To them, I say that you misunderstand the size of the problems we face, the strength of the status quo and the urgency of the people's desire for change.
有人说，我应该安定下来，放慢脚步，不要那么用力，不要那么快地推动这样的转型变革。我想对他们说，你们误解了我们面临的问题的规模，误解了现状的力量，误解了人民渴望变革的紧迫性。
I definitely have the eye of the tiger. I've fought my way to where I am and will continue to do so. I'm a hard worker - I get it from my family. We only know work. Nothing was handed to us. When I believe in something, I go after it. It's very hard to tell me 'no.'
我绝对有老虎的眼睛。我已经奋斗到了今天的位置，并将继续奋斗下去。我工作很努力——这是我的家庭遗传给我的。我们只知道工作。什么也没有交给我们。当我相信一件事，我就去追求它。很难对我说“不”。
People who make the choice to study, work hard or do whatever they endeavor is to give it the max on themselves to reach to the top level. And you have the people who get envy and jealous, yet are not willing to put that work in, and they want to get the same praise.
那些选择学习、努力工作或做任何他们努力的事情的人是为了达到最高水平而给自己最大的努力。有些人会嫉妒，但又不愿意付出努力，他们想要得到同样的赞扬。
I get a lot of criticism for telling founders to focus first on making something great, instead of worrying about how to make money. And yet that is exactly what Google did. And Apple, for that matter. You'd think examples like that would be enough to convince people.
我受到了很多批评，因为我告诉创业者要先专注于做一些伟大的事情，而不是担心如何赚钱。而这正是谷歌所做的。苹果也是如此。你会认为这样的例子足以说服人们。
I'm ambitious but I'm not particularly competitive. I'll try to get roles, as I think it's healthy to go for things, but... I think there's too much competition between women already. It's important to have female solidarity and support each other and other actresses.
我有野心，但我不是特别有竞争力。我会试着找个角色，因为我认为追求一些东西是健康的，但是……我认为女性之间的竞争已经太激烈了。重要的是要有女性的团结和支持彼此和其他女演员。
I can't control what people think. I'm not trying to manipulate people's thoughts or sentiments. I write all the time. You have to experience life, make observations, and ask questions. It's machine-like how things are run now in hip-hop, and my ambitions are different.
我无法控制人们的想法。我不是在试图操纵人们的思想或情绪。我一直在写。你必须体验生活，进行观察，提出问题。现在嘻哈音乐的运作方式就像机器一样，我的抱负也不一样了。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
'Tis not what man Does which exalts him, but what man Would do.
使人高尚的不是人所做的事，而是人所愿意做的事。
Aviation is proof that given, the will, we have the capacity to achieve the impossible.

When you limit a woman's potential, you limit your own.
当你限制一个女人的潜力时，你也限制了你自己的潜力。
Just do what must be done. This may not be happiness, but it .is greatness.
做必须做的事。这也许不是幸福，但却是伟大。
The road to freedom must be uphill, even if it is arduous and frustrating.
通往自由的道路必须是上坡路，即使它是艰难和令人沮丧的。
To understand the heart and mind of a person, look not at what he has already achieved, but at what he aspires to.
要了解一个人的内心和思想，不是看他已经取得了什么，而是看他渴望什么。
