2024-05-12

你的思想睿智又富有哲理，每次重温你说过的话都能让我对人生有新的感悟，谢谢你Michael，谢谢你来过这个世界！

I hate to see suffering, I hate to see people in need, and I feel God gave me a gift, and I have to use it responsibly by giving back, and I’ll do it until I have pennies left or the good Lord calls me home.

- Michael Jackson

我讨厌看到人们受苦和贫困，我觉得神給了我一個礼物，而我有责任要用它回馈給人們，我會持续付出直到毫无分文或是神接我回天家。【图片】

I don't want to wear what's out there. I want to push my individuality, and being that my music is me, my look should be me.

我不想穿现在外面流行的那些。我想展露我自己的个性，我的音乐代表我，我的外表应该就是我。

——迈克尔杰克逊

I just can't conceive of how a person could hate another because of skin color. I love every race on the planet earth.

一个人怎么会因为肤色的不同而去憎恨另一个人，这很不可思议。我爱地球上所有种族的人

--迈克尔·杰克逊

Lies runs sprints but the truth runs Marathons

谎言跑短跑，但真相跑马拉松。

——迈克尔.杰克逊

I've always believed that the real measure of celebrity success, is not just how famous he becomes, but what he does with that fame and fortune.

我一直认为,衡量名人成功的真正标准,不仅仅是他怎样有名气,而是他用名望和财富做了什么。

More than anything, I wished to be a normal little boy. I wanted to build tree houses and go to roller-skating parties.

我希望成为一个普通的小男孩。我想要建树上小屋，去参加滑旱冰会，这比什么都重要。

——迈克尔·杰克逊

I'm a warrior,but at the end of the day I'm still a human being,and it does hurt--very,very much.

我是一个战士，但是归根结底我还是一个普通人，这些事情深深的伤害了我，真的，非常非常伤害我。

Some friends are like shadows, you only see them when the sun shines. But my fans sustained me even in the dark days. I owe them everything.

一些朋友就像影子，当阳光照耀时你才能看见他们。但我的粉丝们甚至在黑暗的时期依然支持我。我感激他们所做的一切。

Parents, communities, governments, all people of the world…must put our children first.

父母、社会、政府、全世界所有的人们都必须把我们的孩子放在第一位。

At that moment I pray that my children will give me the benefit of the doubt. That they will say to themselves: “Our daddy did the best he could, given the unique circumstances that he faced. He may not have been perfect, but he was a warm and decent man, who tried to give us all the love in the world.” 在那一刻，我祈祷，我的孩子会认为我是无辜的，他们会对自己说：“我们的爸爸尽了他最大的努力，他面对的是独一无二的状况。

他做的或许不完美，但他是个温和正派的人，一个在这个世界上把所有的爱都给了我们的人。

——迈克尔·杰克逊，2001年牛津大学演讲

I am forced to think of my own father and despite my earlier

denials, I am forced to admit that me must have loved me. He did love me,

and I know that.我的父亲，不管开始时我多么地不信任他，但我必须承认他一定是爱我的。他的确爱我，我知道.

——迈克尔杰克逊2001年牛津大学演讲

And now with time, rather than bitterness, I feel blessing. In the place of anger, I have found absolution. And in the place of revenge I have found reconciliation. And my initial fury has slowly given way to forgiveness. 现在，想起曾经的苦难，我感到幸福。

在愤怒中，我发现了超脱，在复仇中，我找到了和解，就连最初的愤怒也慢慢地变成了宽恕。

2001年牛津大学演讲

A young lady's physical beauty can by no means outshine the

inner beauty that radiates from her heart and spirit.

一位年轻女士的外在美决不能超越她心灵和精神所散发出来的内在美。

Be humble, believe in yourself, and have the love of the world in your heart

要谦虚、自信和心中有爱——迈克尔·杰克逊

No one should judge what I've done with my life, not unless they've been in my shoes every horrible day and every sleepless night.

没有人能评判我的生活是怎样的，除非他们处在我的位置度过可怕的每一天和每一个不眠之夜。

I am the captain of my ship. I take suggestions and listen to what everyone has

to say, but the final decision is mine.

我是我的飞船的船长，我会采纳建议并聆听他人所说，但最后做决定的人是我。

As long as you place me in your heart, I will always be with you.

只要你把我放在你的心里，我便永远与你同在。

When I begin to feel a little tired or burdened, children revive me.

I turn to them for new life, for new music.

当我开始感到有些疲惫或压力时，孩子们让我恢复活力。我向他们寻求新的人生，新的音乐。

Real charity is from the heart, you know? Not to say Look at me, look what I am doing .

真正的慈善是发自内心的，知道吗？而不是说“看看我，看我在做的事情吧”

I was a veteran, before I was a teenager.

在我步入青少年之前，就已经是个老艺人。

I know I am different from most people my age, because I’ve seen so much

and done so much.But I’m not Mr.Nutter.

I’m not crazy man. People just don’t understand.

我知道自己和大多数同龄人不同，因为我经历了很多。

但我不是疯子，我没有疯，人们只是不理解我。

I feel guilty when I have dinner or breakfast because I realize how many people

don't have those simple things that we so much take for granted.

每当我吃晚饭或早餐时我会感到内疚，因为我意识到还有许多人不能拥有这些我们认为是非常理所当然而简单的东西。

In my business you can't trust anyone because you don t know who s your friend.

Becoming successful means you become a prisoner.

你不能相信任何人，因为你不知道谁是你的朋友。

成功意味着你将成为一个囚犯——迈克尔·杰克逊

Prejudice is the child of ignorance. Naked we came into the world

and naked we shall go out. For it reminds me that I am naked under my shirt,

whatever its color.

偏见源自无知。我们赤裸裸地来到世上，也赤裸裸地离开。这提醒了我，不管穿什么颜色，衣服下的我仍是赤裸的肉身。

--迈克尔杰克逊

我爱我的歌迷们，他们才是我在公众面前亮相的原因。

当我出去表演时，我看到他们唱歌跳舞，这是最让我开心的事情。这真的是世界上最棒的一种感觉。

I feel guilty just sitting around when I know I can be doing something.

如果我明明知道自己能做些什么去改变现状，

却依旧选择袖手旁观的话，

罪恶感会占据我的心。

我是一个很敏感，容易受伤的人。孩子们和动物是我在这个世界上最好的朋友。他们永远真心待你，毫无保留地去爱你。

In our darkest hour, in my deepest despair,

Will you still care? Will you be there?

在我最黑暗的日子里，在我最深的绝望中，你是否仍在那里，依然在乎我？

活在过去是悲哀的。

这就是为什么我不把奖品摆在我家里。没有金唱片，没有葛莱美。它们都在仓库里。我不想被荣誉变得自满，因为那样我就会觉得没有其它事物去追求，而那不是真实的。

你教育我如何屹立，如何战斗／为每件善恶／每一天，不需任何支撑／我会珍视所有你所塑造的／我会记得你的每个亲吻／我永不会错过你亲切的话语／不管我从这儿去到哪里／你都在我心中，我亲爱的母亲——迈克尔杰克逊（节选自Dancing The Dream的诗文Mother）

With hindsight and maturity,

I have come to seet hat even my father’s harshness was a kind of love…

He pushe d me because he loved me.

He pushed me because he wante d me to have more than he EVER had, and he wanted my life to be better than his EVER was.’ MJ

后来当我日渐成熟，我了解到即便是父亲的严厉，也是一种爱的形式。他逼我是因为他爱我，他逼我是因为他希望我能获得比他更多，他逼我是因为他希望我能拥有他从来没有的人生。

——迈克尔杰克逊

I don’t think I am better than other people,

I think I am different from other people,

because I do different things.

我不认为我比其他人更优秀，但我认为我是与众不同的，因为我做着与众不同的事情。

I believe in spirituality and I believe in a higher source, such as God.

But I'm not a Scientologist. I read everything. I like to read. I love to study.

我相信灵性，我相信超自然的力量，例如上帝，但是我不是科学教教徒。

我读很多东西。我爱阅读，我爱学习。

I don’t understand why the press is so interested

in speculating about my appearance anyway.

What does my face have to do with my music and dancing?

我不明白为什么媒体这么感兴趣揣测我的外表。

我的脸和我的音乐舞蹈有什么关系？

We only live one. Since we are given the gift of life,

it should be our persistent endeavor to immortalize ourselves.

No matter what field of endeavor we choose.

我们只有一次生命，但既然被赋予生命的能量，

我们就应付出努力让之不朽，不论选择何种领域。

我只是想让我的粉丝知道并理解那些都不是事实。那些报道99.9%都不是事实。不要读，更不要信，那些都是垃圾，小道消息，是为了贪婪和金钱。请不要理会。

——迈克尔杰克逊

I don't know what to believe and what not to believe.

Because

I know how much that is written about me is twisted...

how much stuff in history is twisted

我对哪些可以相信哪些是谎言感到困惑。

因为我知道有许多关于我自己的歪曲报道...

那历史书里又有多少被扭曲了呢？

I think justice is important

because there are many injustices

in the world and I hate injustice.

我认为正义非常重要，这世上有太多的不公，而我痛恨不公。

I want to live in a world with peace and without hunger.

A world where mankind knows no suffering.

我想生活在一个和平、没有饥饿的世界里，

一个人类不知道痛苦为何物的世界里。

Life is too precious and too short not to reach out and touch the people we can. 生命是那么宝贵，又那么短暂，我们应尽份力去向那些需要的人伸出援助之手。

有时我很难看着我心上人的眼睛，即使我很了解她们。我的恋情并没有我想要的好结局。好像总有些什么障碍。你与成百万的人分享的东西和你只与一个人分享的东西是不一样的。

When you want to be close to me, listen to the music. The love is stored there and will not die. 当你想亲近我，请聆听我的音乐。我的爱就储存在那里，永不逝去。

我认为吸毒是不对的，也不在乎有哪些大人物吸过毒。我甚至不喜欢“亢奋”这个词。如果我想放纵一下我的思想，我会选择在沙滩上散步，读一本好书，写一首歌或者和孩子们在一起。

到一定的时候我希望我能以某种形式从公众面前消失。不再被关注，只是默默的为孩子们服务。懂得适时隐退事很重要的。我们无时无刻不在发生改变。我们的生命中注定需要变化，这是为什么我们有春夏秋冬，四季更迭。

I put real pressure on myself and I demand the best out of myself. 我真的给自己很大的压力，我苛求自己做到完美。

——迈克尔·杰克逊【图片】

I don’t like most girls. There are very few I like who fit the mold. It takes a very special mold to make me happy. 我不喜欢大部分女孩，只有极少数女孩是我喜欢的类型。只有非常特别的女孩才能让我觉得开心。

—— 迈克尔·杰克逊

Because I was taught to be Biblical: "Forgive them for they know not what they do." And you do it. 因为圣经告诉我：“原谅他们，因为他们不知道自己在做什么”。所以我会原谅。

I wanted people to love me, truly love me, because I never really felt loved.我希望人们爱我，真心地爱我，因为我从未真正感到被爱。

他们说我是怪人，我是同性恋，我在高压氧舱里睡觉，我要买象人遗骨。只要是让大众对我反感的故事，他们就不遗余力的大肆宣传。如果让别人来经历一遍我遭的罪，他早就变成无可救药的瘾君子了。

一个叫Ryan White的小孩坐在我的用餐房里的桌子上，告诉他妈妈：“妈妈，当你埋葬我的时候，我不要穿西服和带领带......我想穿牛仔裤和体恤衫。”然后我说“打扰一下,我要用一下洗手间。“我跑到洗手间哭泣，我无法想象一个12岁的小男孩告诉妈妈怎么该埋葬自己。

I teach them to love everybody and to be kind and to be good in their heart. But they have that naturally. I didn't have to program it. (谈到3宝的教育)我教他们要爱所有的人，要发自内心的宽厚善良，做个好人。不过，其实他们天性如此，我并不需要刻意培养。

---迈克尔.杰克逊

I love nature, I love the forest. I love the grace, the gentleness, the easiness of how gentle nature is. It is just giving. I love that. 我爱大自然，我爱树木。我爱大自然不经意就散发出的那种优雅、包容。那是单纯的奉献。我爱这些。

I am bewildered at the length to which people will go to portray me so negatively. 对于人们可以那么长时间的，如此强烈的抹黑我的行为，我很困惑。

I'm just like anyone. I cut and I bleed. And I embarrass easily ——Michael Jackson 我和任何人一样，割伤了会流血，我也会很容易感到困窘。

——迈克尔.杰克逊。

“I love my fans.. I mean I really love them and if I could meet every one of them I would. I watch television and see shows that follow other celebrities and how they get so mad about fans wanting to say hi or get an autograph.. They made me.. So if I can give them two minutes of my time and a friendly hello it’s well worth it. I’ve lived my life by the fans and I’ll die by the fans .”。

我爱我的歌迷们。我意思是我真的爱他们，如果我可以和他们每一个人见面，我一定会这样做。我看到电视和演出上有的明星对想向他们打招呼和拿签名的粉丝表现得很恼火，他们真的让我……如果我可以给歌迷两分钟时间和一个友好的“哈罗”，这真的值得。我的生命离不开我的歌迷。

I am willing to forgive the press, or forgive anybody, I was taught to love and forgive, which I do have in my heart. 我愿意原谅小报，或者原谅任何人。我被教导要去爱和宽恕，这一直紧记在我的心里。

Sometimes people forget that I am a human being. They [tabloids] hunt you. It's terrible…they never think about how the person feels about what they write. 有时人们忘了我也是一个人而已。他们(小报)追捕你，太可怕了…他们从来不想想他们写的东西会让别人有怎样的感受。

——MJ

In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. 在一个充满仇恨的世界，我们仍然要满怀希望；在一个充满绝望的世界，我们仍然要敢于梦想。
