Travel is impossible, but daydreaming about travel is easy.
旅行是不可能的，但是做旅行的白日梦很容易。
I have one really nice watch. It's a white-face, stainless-steel Rolex Daytona. I wear it a lot. I got that in the middle of 'The Office.' All the guys in the writers' room were like, 'Let's all get a nice watch.' We were too busy to upgrade our lives in a big way, but we thought this was a nice symbolic gesture.
我有一块非常漂亮的手表。这是一张白脸，不锈钢劳力士戴托纳。我经常穿。我在《办公室》里看到的。作家室里的所有人都在说，‘我们都买一块漂亮的手表吧。’我们太忙了，没时间大幅度提升我们的生活，但我们认为这是一个很好的象征性姿态。
It feels as though a very disproportionate number of main characters are writers, because that's what the writer knows. Fair enough. But nothing bothers me more in a movie than an actor playing a writer, and you just know he's not a writer. Writers recognize other writers. Ethan Hawke is too hot to be a writer.
感觉好像有非常不成比例的主角是作家，因为这是作家所知道的。很公平。但在电影里，没有什么比演员扮演作家更让我烦恼的了，你只知道他不是作家。作家认识其他作家。伊桑·霍克太热了，不适合当作家。
I think a lot of writers spend years just getting up the courage to write because it seems like such a fantasy of a profession. My dad saved me all that time by making me think, 'Oh, anyone can be a writer. It's like being a firefighter or a lawyer.'
我认为很多作家花了很多年的时间才鼓起勇气去写作，因为这似乎是一种对职业的幻想。我爸爸救了我很多时间，让我想，‘哦，任何人都可以成为作家。’。就像当消防员或律师一样。”
I don't actually feel multi-talented. I just feel that I'm in this business where we give ourselves 100 titles and gold statues. It's like, lawyers aren't like, 'You're incredible! You're a professional arguer in front of the judge! You're great at paperwork!' No, you just get credit for one job.
我并不觉得自己有多大天赋。我只是觉得我在这个行业，我们给自己100个头衔和金像。就像，律师不会说，'你太不可思议了！你在法官面前是个专业的辩论家！你的文书工作做得很好不，你只是因为一份工作得到学分。
Good comics gravitate to each other; you know who's your type of person by watching them onstage, hopefully.
好的漫画互相吸引；希望通过在台上看他们，你知道谁是你喜欢的类型。
I have blue eyes, and before I knew anything about fashion - I'm talking about the second grade - I learned I would get a compliment if I wore a blue shirt.
我有一双蓝色的眼睛，在我对时尚一无所知之前——我说的是二年级——我知道如果我穿一件蓝色衬衫，我会得到别人的称赞。
There's not many good comedies to watch - you know, comedies that make you glad you watched them.
没有多少好的喜剧片可看-你知道，喜剧片让你很高兴你看了。
