3、I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick. I believe in pink. I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and... I believe in miracles.
我喜欢修指甲,我喜欢打扮,我喜欢哪怕在闲暇时也涂唇膏穿盛装,我喜欢粉色。我相信快乐的女孩最漂亮。我相信明天的太阳是新的……我相信奇迹的存在。
4、I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.
我在很早之前就决定要无条件接受生活。我从来没有期望任何特别的事情发生,但我获得的总远远超过我的期望。但大部分时候,发生在我身上的事我都没有刻意追寻。
5、I have to be alone very often. I’d be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That’s how I refuel.

6、I heard a definition once: Happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I’d invented it, because it is very true.
我曾听说过这样一个说法:快乐就是拥有健康和短暂的记忆。我多么希望这是我发明的,因为说得太对了。
7、I was asked to act when I couldn’t act. I was asked to sing ’Funny Face’ when I couldn’t sing, and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn’t dance - and do all kinds of things I wasn’t prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it.
当还不会演戏时我被叫去演戏,当还不会唱歌时我被要求唱“Funny Face”,当还不会跳舞时我被要求与弗雷德·阿斯坦跳舞——所有的这些的事我都从来没有准备过。所以我非常努力地去适应学习这些事物。

如果够真诚我应该告诉你,我现在依然阅读童话,而且它们是我最爱的读物。
11、If my world were to cave in tomorrow, I would look back on all the pleasures, excitements and worthwhilenesses I have been lucky enough to have had. Not the sadness, not my miscarriages or my father leaving home, but the joy of everything else. It will have been enough.
如果我的世界明天消逝,我会回顾所有我有幸拥有的快乐,兴奋和精彩。不是悲伤,失败或者我父亲的离家而去,而是所有事物愉快的一面,这样就足够了。
12、Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering - because you can’t take it in all at once.

16、People, even more than things, have to be restored, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
人之所以为人,是应该充满精力、能够自我悔改、自我反省、自我成长,而不是抱怨他人。
