Whatever happens happens now, so live your life where the action is — now. And one more thing: If you're going to be on television, don't call your friends and tell them to watch until after you've seen it.

不管发生什么事情,都只是发生在现在,所以要活在现在。我还要告诉你们一件事情,如果你将要录制节目,在你看到这个电视节目前不要打电话告诉你的朋友。
Don't do anything that 30 years from now you'll look back at and say, "Oh, my God, why the hell did I do that?!" I wish I had a nickel for every time I heard someone start a sentence with, "If only, when I was younger, I would have...." So I did a little informal survey for you, and I found out that, amazingly, all these people had the same regret. When they graduated from college, sadly, they bought furniture.
第二,不要做任何会让你在30年后回顾时说:“哦,我的天呐,我到底为什么会干出这种事情?”的事情。每次有人以这样的句子开头:“要是...多好,当我年轻的时候...,我们应该...”,我都希望能有5美元可以赏给他们。所以我为你们做了一点非正式的调查,并且发现,所有的这些人都有着同样的遗憾。悲哀的是,当他们从大学毕业的时候,他们都买了家具。
This probably needs a little explanation. Right at this moment in your life, you are in a unique position that you may never ever be in again. You have nothing to lose. Everything you have acquired of value is locked inside you. If you have a dream, now is the time to pursue it, before you buy furniture.
这个可能需要稍作解释。在你人生的这个时候,你处在一个对你来说也许是绝无仅有的独特位置。你没什么可以失去。你获得的所有有价值的东西都仅仅锁在你的内心。如果你拥有梦想,现在就去追随梦想的时刻,在买家具之前先去实现你的梦想。
I was one of the lucky ones. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin with no employable skills, unless you count jury duty. It meant I had to start from scratch and figure out where I fit in. I didn't have money, but I could afford to fail, and there were many failures. But I found out what I was good at. I found something I loved. And now I have furniture — lots of furniture.
我算是一个比较幸运的人。我从威斯康辛大学毕业却没有职业技能,除非你把做义务陪审员也算进去。那意味着我必须白手起家并且得弄清楚我适合什么行业。我没有钱,但我可以承受失败,而且失败过很多次。但我找到了我所擅长的领域。我找到了我钟爱的事业。并且现在我也有了家具,有很多家具。
