“You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.”
除非你从别人的观点考虑问题——在你钻进别人的身体里四处游荡之前,你决不会真正了解他。
“People generally see what they look for, and hear what they listen for.”
人们通常看到的是他们想看的,听到的也是他们想听的。
“Before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself. The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience.”
在与别人相处之前,我得先跟自己相处。唯一一件不会遵从少数服从多数原则的事是人的良心。
“You can choose your friends but you sho' can't choose your family, an' they're still kin to you no matter whether you acknowledge 'em or not, and it makes you look right silly when you don't.”
你可以选择自己的朋友,但你不该也无法选择自己的家庭。无论你是否对家人心存感激,家人一直都是你的牵绊。而当你对家庭丧失感激之情时,会让你看上去很愚蠢。
“There's a lot of ugly things in this world, son. I wish I could keep 'em all away from you. That's never possible.”
孩子,这世界上有很多丑恶的事情。我希望我能让这些丑恶都远离你。但那是不可能的。
“Courage is not a man with a gun in his hand. It's knowing you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what.”
勇敢并不是一个人手中拿着枪,而是在你动手之前你已经知道自己会输,但依然会动手,而且无论如何会坚持到底。
“勇敢并不是一个人手中拿着枪,而是当你还未开始就已知道自己会输,可你依然要去做,而且无论如何都要将它坚持到底。你很少能赢,但有时也会。”
