A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
生日
Birthday
We have to be able to grow up. Our wrinkles are our medals of the passage of life. They are what we have been through and who we want to be.
我们必须长大。我们的皱纹是我们生命历程的奖章。他们是我们经历过的，是我们想成为的人。
Birthdays? yes, in a general way; For the most if not for the best of men: You were born I suppose on a certain day: So was I: or perhaps in the night: what then?
生日吗?是的，一般说来;我想，你是在某一天出生的，我也是，或者也许是在夜里出生的。然后呢?
I've never looked forward to a birthday like I'm looking forward to my new daughter's birthday, because two days after that is when I can apply for reinstatement.

Lucy took care of me on the set, and made sure that none of the crew cussed around me. She also had birthday parties for me and made sure that they were well attended.

It was on my fifth birthday that Papa put his hand on my shoulder and said, 'Remember, my son, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm.'
在我五岁生日那天，爸爸把手放在我的肩上说:“记住，我的孩子，如果你需要帮助，你会在你的手臂末端找到一只。”
I like to give people novels I think they would like, on no particular occasion - just when we're in a bookstore together. I like to receive reference books on my birthday.
我喜欢给人们我认为他们会喜欢的小说，在没有特定的场合——只是当我们一起在书店的时候。我喜欢在生日那天收到参考书。
Presents don't really mean much to me. I don't want to sound mawkish, but - it was the realization that I have a great many people in my life who really love me, and who I really love.
礼物对我来说并不重要。我不想听起来很伤感，但是——我意识到我生命中有很多人真的爱我，而且我真的爱他们。
I wrapped my Christmas presents early this year, but I used the wrong paper. See, the paper I used said 'Happy Birthday' on it. I didn't want to waste it so I just wrote 'Jesus' on it.

You look great Jimmy. You look amazing and your hair rocks. You look so good, oh my gosh. You look at yourself? I totally want to cut off your skin and wear it to my birthday, that's coming up.
你看起来很棒，吉米。你看起来很棒，你的头发很酷。你看起来很好，我的天啊。你看看你自己?我真的很想把你的皮肤剪下来穿在我的生日派对上，马上就要来了。
If you look over the years, the styles have changed - the clothes, the hair, the production, the approach to the songs. The icing to the cake has changed flavors. But if you really look at the cake itself, it's really the same.
如果你回顾这些年来，风格已经改变了——衣服，发型，制作，歌曲的方式。蛋糕上的糖霜改变了口味。但是如果你仔细观察蛋糕本身，它其实是一样的。
KEEP EXPLORING
