過去進行式

I was hoping today to talk a little bit about creativity.

譯者: Lilian Chiu 審譯者: Pui-Ching Siu

You know, a lot of people really struggle

to 不定詞

to give themselves permission to be creative.

要知道，很多人真的很難 允許自己發揮創造力。

I mean, we're all a little suspect of our own talent.

我的意思是，我們多少會 懷疑自己的才華。

And I remember a story I came across in my early 20s

記得在我二十出頭時 偶然發現一個故事，

and I was reading -- he did a lot of interviews --

我正在閱讀—— 他參與了許多訪談——

and one time, William F. Buckley had this television program

and Ginsberg went on there and sang a Hare Krishna song

金斯堡上那個節目，吟唱一段 克里希納咒（Hare Krishna），

And he got back to New York to all his intelligentsia friends,

回到紐約後，身旁的 知識分子朋友全都告訴他：

「知不知道大家認為你是白痴？

"Don't you know that everybody thinks you're an idiot,

and the whole country's making fun of you?"

I'm a poet, and I'm going to play the fool.

Most people have to go to work all day long,

他們回到家，和另一半吵架， 吃東西，打開老舊的電視機，

and they come home and they fight with their spouse,

電視上有人試著推銷東西給他們，

and they eat, and they turn on the old boob tube,

and somebody tries to sell them something,

讓他們則坐在床上，說： 『那個笨詩人是誰？』

and now they're sitting in bed and going, 'Who is this stupid poet?'

because I think that most of us really want to offer the world

something that the world will consider good or important.

因為我們所作所為的好與壞 並非由我們來決定；

如果我們從歷史學了點什麼，那就是

because it's not up to us whether what we do is any good,

the world is an extremely unreliable critic.

你認為人類的創造力有意義嗎？

大部分的人不會花很多時間 去思考詩作，對吧？

沒有那麼關心艾倫·金斯堡 或任何人的詩作，

Most people don't spend a lot of time thinking about poetry. Right?

and they're not really that concerned with Allen Ginsberg's poems

突然你會拼命想在 這樣的人生中找出道理，

以及，「曾經有人感覺這麼糟糕嗎？

somebody breaks your heart, they don't love you anymore,

you're desperate for making sense out of this life,

你好愛他們，愛到無法看清一切。

and, "Has anybody ever felt this bad before?

「以前有人有這種感覺嗎？ 我這是怎麼了？」

此時藝術不再是奢侈品， 而是一種食糧，

You meet somebody and your heart explodes.

You love them so much, you can't even see straight.

人類的創意就是大自然 在我們體內呈現出來的形式。

"Did anybody feel like this before? What is happening to me?"

And that's when art's not a luxury, it's actually sustenance.

我小時候演出電影《雪地黃金犬》，

我們在阿拉斯加拍攝， 晚上走到外面，

Human creativity is nature manifest in us.

天空蕩漾著紫色、 粉紅色、白色的漣漪，

I did this movie called "White Fang" when I was a kid,

and the sky was like rippling with purple and pink and white,

and it's the most beautiful thing I ever saw.

It really looked like the sky was playing.

或在房子旁跑來跑去，做任何事，

我相信我們存在於 太空中的這顆行星上，

要茁壯成長，要表達我們自己，

or run around the house and doing anything,

And I believe that we are here on this star in space

我十二歲時就第一次 參與職業戲劇演出。

我演出的戲劇是 蕭伯納的《聖女貞德》，

alright, well, here's the rub: we have to know ourselves.

I did my first professional play. I was 12 years old.

I was in a play called "Saint Joan" by George Bernard Shaw

大部分都是透過 我演出的角色來回饋。

And that profession -- I'm almost 50 now --

that profession has never stopped giving back to me,

我的經歷，我，伊森， 並沒有我想像的那麼獨特。
