Challenge, Nina Dobrev

Challenge, Nina Dobrev

It was challenging because it’s not me. I went to a lot of web sites that dealt with teenage pregnancy. I read a lot of stories about girls having to go through what Mia did [Mia is Nina's character on Degrassi]. There’s the alienation factor and there are all the stories and rumors, having everybody judge you. It isn’t easy.

- Nina Dobrev, referring to playing a teenage mother

난 (십대 미혼모가) 아니었기에 그것은 내게 도전적인 일이었어요. 나는 십대 임신을 다루고 있는 많은 인터넷 사이트를 돌아다녔어요. 미아(Mia)와 같은 일을 겪어본 소녀들에 대한 이야기들을 많이 읽어보았죠. 소외시키는 요소가 있고, 많은 이야기들과 루머가 있어요. 그런 것들로 사람들은 당신을 판단하죠. 그건 쉬운 일이 아니에요.

Money, Logan Pearsall Smith

Money, Logan Pearsall Smith

It is the wretchedness of being rich that you have to live with rich people.

- Logan Pearsall Smith (1865~1946)

부자가 되려면 부자들과 어울려 살아가는 끔찍함을 견뎌야 한다.

- 로건 피어설 스미스

Music, Kurt Cobain

Music, Kurt Cobain

I was looking for something a lot heavier, yet melodic at the same time. Something different from heavy metal, a different attitude.

- Kurt Cobain (1967~1994)

나는 훨씬 더 무겁지만 동시에 선율이 아름다운 무언가를 찾고 있었다. 헤비메탈과는 다른, 다른 태도를.

- 커트 코베인

Creativity, Steve Jobs

Creativity, Steve Jobs

I think most creative people want to express appreciation for being able to take advantage of the work that’s been done by others before us. We try to use the talents we do have to express our deep feelings, to show our appreciation of all the contributions that came before us, and to add something to that flow. That’s what has driven me.

- Steve Jobs

대부분의 창의적인 사람들은 이전의 다른 사람들이 이룩해 놓은 것을 이용할 수 있는 점에 고마움을 표한다. 우리는 가진 재능을 활용해 깊은 감정을 표현하고, 이전 시대에 이뤄진 모든 기여에 대해 고마움을 표현하며, 그 흐름에 뭔가를 추가하려 노력한다. 그것이 나를 이끌어준 원동력이다.

- 스티브 잡스

War, Barbara Kingsolver

War, Barbara Kingsolver

There's a graveyard in northern France where all the dead boys from D-Day are buried. The white crosses reach from one horizon to the other. I remember looking it over and thinking it was a forest of graves. But the rows were like this, dizzying, diagonal, perfectly straight, so after all it wasn't a forest but an orchard of graves. Nothing to do with nature, unless you count human nature.

- Barbara Kingsolver (1955~)

프랑스 북부엔 D-데이 전사자들이 매장되어 있는 묘지가 있다. 하얀 십자가의 무덤이 지평선에서 지평선까지 이어지고 있다. 난 그것을 보며 묘비의 숲이라고 생각했던 걸 기억한다. 하지만 묘비의 행렬이 현기증이 날 정도로 완벽한 일직선으로 늘어져 있어서, 묘비의 숲이 아니라 묘비의 과수원이었던 것이다. 무수한 묘비가 펼쳐진 그런 광경은 자연이 만들어낸 게 아니라, 인간이 지닌 폭력성이 만들어낸 거라고 봐야만 했다

Life, Dewey Wilkerson

Life, Dewey Wilkerson

I guess all we can do is live our lives with as much kindness and decency as possible, and try not to dwell on God standing over us with a giant shovel.

- Dewey Wilkerson, Malcom in the Middle

나는 우리가 할 수 있는 모든 것은 가능한한 친절하고, 예절을 지키고, 커다란 삽을 들고 우리 곁에 서있는 신을 생각하지 않으려 노력하면서 살아가는 것이라고 생각합니다.
