A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
抱负
Ambition
Individual ambition is undoubtedly a strong motive in student work, but there is such a thing among students everywhere as ambition for others, call it class spirit, esprit de corps, good fellowship, or good will to men.
个人抱负无疑是学生工作的一个强大动机，但在世界各地的学生中，都有一种对他人的抱负，称之为班级精神、团队精神、良好的友谊或对人的良好意愿。
If we get to shoot the third one, which I'm really hoping we do, the third one's great. There's a big uprising and rebellion, and my character Gale's a big part of that. If we get to shoot that, I'll be very, very pleased.
如果我们能拍第三部，我真的很希望我们能拍，第三部很棒。有一场大规模的起义，我扮演的盖尔是其中的重要角色。如果我们能拍下来，我会非常非常高兴。
When I was a young man, I wanted to be three things: I wanted to be the world’s greatest horseman, the world’s greatest economist, and the world’s greatest lover. Unfortunately I never became the world’s greatest horseman.
当我年轻的时候，我想做三件事:我想成为世界上最伟大的骑手，世界上最伟大的经济学家，世界上最伟大的爱人。不幸的是，我从来没有成为世界上最伟大的骑手。
Seldom can the unhappy be persuaded that the evil of the day is sufficient for it; and the ambitious will not be content with the present splendour, but paints yet more glorious triumphs, on the cloud curtain of the future.
不快乐的人很少能被说服，认为当今的罪恶已经足够了;雄心勃勃的人不会满足于眼前的辉煌，而会在未来的云幕上描绘出更加辉煌的胜利。
My life has been a bit special, this is true. I participated in the liberation of my country. I was one of the organisers of its struggle for liberation. I likewise actively participated in all the struggles for liberation.
我的生活有点特别，这是真的。我参加了祖国的解放运动。我是解放运动的组织者之一。我也积极参加了一切争取解放的斗争。
A noble man compares and estimates himself by an idea which is higher than himself; and a mean man, by one lower than himself. The one produces aspiration; the other ambition, which is the way in which a vulgar man aspires.
一个高尚的人用一种高于自己的思想来比较和估计自己;一个卑鄙的人，比他自己还卑鄙。一个产生抱负;另一种野心，是一个庸俗的人所追求的。
If it awakens in us as a whole how important that is - the theme of how conquest and ambition are meaningless without contribution - I think then as a society we're in better shape. I hope people are inspired to be the best.
如果它唤醒了我们作为一个整体是多么重要——没有贡献，征服和野心是多么没有意义的主题——那么我认为，作为一个社会，我们处于更好的状态。我希望人们被激励成为最好的。
A belief in hell and the knowledge that every ambition is doomed to frustration at the hands of a skeleton have never prevented the majority of human beings from behaving as though death were no more than an unfounded rumor.
对地狱的信仰，以及每一个野心注定要在骷髅手中受挫的认识，从来没有阻止过大多数人的行为，仿佛死亡只不过是一个毫无根据的谣言。
I never dreamed about being an actor, because that was out of reach. Coming from a small town that was big in farming, and also big in clothing factories, you don't dream about being a professional football player or an actor.
我从来没有想过要当演员，因为那是遥不可及的。来自一个农业发达、服装厂发达的小镇，你不会梦想成为一名职业足球运动员或演员。
As kids we didn't complain about being poor; we talked about how rich we were going to be and made moves to get the lifestyle we aspired to by any means we could. And as soon as we had a little money, we were eager to show it.
作为孩子，我们没有抱怨贫穷;我们谈论了我们将变得多么富有，并采取行动，尽我们所能获得我们所渴望的生活方式。一旦我们有了一点钱，我们就迫不及待地想展示出来。
Most great entrepreneurs I know are nothing like the other kids. They're almost like tangent lines - those lines that seem to go nowhere. Nothing connects them, until they get out in the real world. Then they connect just fine.
我认识的大多数伟大的企业家和其他孩子完全不同。它们几乎就像切线——那些看起来没有方向的线。在他们进入现实世界之前，没有任何东西能把他们联系起来。然后它们连接得很好。
My ambition is that men should have a voluptuous feeling when they look at the portraits I paint of women. Love interests me more than painting. My pictures are the love stories I tell to myself and which I want to tell others.
我的抱负是，当男人看到我为女人画的肖像时，应该有一种纵欲的感觉。爱情比绘画更使我感兴趣。我的照片是我告诉自己的爱情故事，我想告诉别人。
