Choice
“If you’re alive, kick into drive. Chase whimsies. See if you can turn dreams into a way to make a living, if not an entire way of life.” – Kevin Smith
如果你还活着，就排除万难，全力以赴。即使不能完全过上梦想中的生活，也要把梦想作为谋生的方式。
rú guǒ nǐ hái huó zhe，jiù pái chú wàn nán，quán lì yǐ fù。jí shǐ bù néng wán quán guò shàng mèng xiǎng zhōng de shēng huó，yě yào bǎ mèng xiǎng zuò wéi móu shēng de fāng shì。
Kevin Smith Quotes
“As human beings we govern our actions with our deepest fears. But if you name that shit, you claim that shit: let enough people into your closet and you’ll find there’s no more room for skeletons. Leave yourself nowhere to hide and you can live your life unguarded.” – Kevin Smith
人类用恐惧控制行动。但太在意的却得不到：人内心的衣橱容量有限，让太多人进来就会是去空间给自我。让你自己无处藏身会让你不需要过多防备。
rén lèi yòng kǒng jù kòng zhì xíng dòng。dàn tài zài yì de què dé bú dào： rén nèi xīn de yī chú róng liàng yǒu xiàn，ràng tài duō rén jìn lái jiù huì shì qù kōng jiān gěi zì wǒ。ràng nǐ zì jǐ wú chǔ cáng shēn huì ràng nǐ bù xū yào guò duō fáng bèi。
Main Goal
“Don’t let anybody tell you different, man: The main goal in life career wise should always be to try to get paid to simply be yourself.” – Kevin Smith
不要让别人的不同意见左右自己，明智的人把成就自我作为生活的目标，尽力为做自己而付出努力。
bú yào ràng bié rén de bù tóng yì jiàn zuǒ yòu zì jǐ，míng zhì de rén bǎ chéng jiù zì wǒ zuò wéi shēng huó de mù biāo，jìn lì wéi zuò zì jǐ ér fù chū nǔ lì。
