《绝望主妇》台词 Actors' Lines of Desperate Housewives

1. What's in aname? Do the labels we attach to people tell us everything we need to know? Ifwe say she's just a child, does this mean she's truly innocent? Does callingher a drug dealer prove she's purely evil? Will a man known as"preacher" always practice what he preaches? Can a man branded avillain possess the qualities of a hero? The truth is, a name can never reallytell you who someone is any more than it can tell you what they're capable of.

名字究竟有什么含义？我们给他人贴的标签，能涵盖我们所须知道的一切吗？如果我们说她只是个孩子，就意味着她真的无辜吗？说她是毒贩，就说明她完全是邪恶的吗？一位被称为布道者的人，会始终将他所宣讲的一切付诸实践吗？一个被扣上邪恶帽子的人，身上就不可以有英雄气概吗？事情的真相是，名字永远不能告诉你某人的真面目，正如它无法告诉你他会做出什么样的事。

2. Blindness--it'san affliction that prevents people from seeing what is right in front ofthem...like the wives who can't detect the jealousy that consumes theirhusbands...the women unable to see that a rival might also be a friend...themen who stay oblivious to the guilt that lies deep within them. Yes...The worldis filled with those who cannot see. The most dangerous are the ones who stayblind to the evil within their own hearts. How do we protect ourselves fromthese people? First, we have to open our own eyes and find them...before theyfind us.

盲目，是种折磨，它让人们看不到眼前的东西。就好像妻子没有发现丈夫产生的嫉妒心，就像女人意识不到对手也可能成为朋友，就好像男人忘却了内心深处的服罪感。没错，世界上到处都有盲目的人，最危险的就是那些对自己内心的邪恶视而不见的人，我们该怎么避开这些人呢？首先，我们得睁大眼睛，把他们找出来，在他们找到我们之前。

3. These are thethings that happen in the wake of any great disaster. people start to performsmall acts of kindness. They do what they can to help, all the whileknowing...it won't be enough.

Yes, in the wakeof a great tragedy, people do what they can to help...all the whileknowing...it won't be enough.

是的，在大灾难过后，人们会竭尽全力伸出援手，但是既便如此，仍然是杯水车薪。

4. The past isnever truly behind us. Ghosts lurk in the shadows, eager to remind us of thechoices we made. But if we look back, we might find an old friend with openarms...or an old enemy with a hidden agenda...or a grown-up son with aforgiving heart...Sadly, some of us refuse to look back, never understandingthat by denying the past, we are condemned to repeat it.

过去从未真正过去，幽灵潜伏在阴影里，急着提醒我们做过的选择。但如果我们回首过去，可能会看到一位张开双臂欢迎你的老朋友，或者一个心怀鬼胎的敌人，或者长大的儿子有着一颗宽容的心。不幸的是，有些人拒绝回首过去，永远不明白否认过去，只会令自己注定重蹈覆辙。

5. There is muchto be afraid of in this world. But what we fear has nothing to do with gruesomemasks, or plastic spiders, or lifelike monsters. No, it's the thoughts in ourhead that terrify us the most... What if she comes to regret her decision? Whatif he really is unhappy? What if the chance for love has passed forever? How dowe conquer these terrifying thoughts? We start by reminding ourselves what doesnot kill us...just makes us stronger.

这个世界上有很多可怕的东西。但是我们所惧怕的不是恐怖的面具，或塑料蜘蛛，也不是逼真的怪兽，都不是。最让我们恐惧的是我们内心的想法。如果她对自己的决定后悔了怎么办？如果他真的觉得不幸福怎么办？如果永远错过了再爱一次的机会怎么办？我们如何克服这些可怕的想法呢？我们从提醒自己开始，那些没有打到我们的东西，会让我们更坚强。

6. There isnothing more deceptive than a smile, and no one knows this better than thepeople who hide behind them. Some flash their teeth as a polite warning totheir enemies. Some put on beaming faces to keep their tears from falling.Others wear silly grins to mask their fear. But then there is that rare smilethat is actually genuine. It's the smile of a person who knows his troubleswill soon be over.

没有什么比一个微笑更具有欺骗性，而这一点只有藏在微笑背后的人心里最清楚。有的人对着他的敌人微笑着露出牙齿，只是先礼后兵；有的人强装笑颜只是为了抑制住流泪；而另一些人傻傻的裂开嘴笑，只是为了掩饰自己的恐惧。而此时，有那么一种不太常见的微笑，它完全发自内心，那是当一个人知道自己的麻烦将要被除掉的时候，才会露出的微笑。

7. passion. It's aforce so potent we still remember it long after it's faded away. A drive soalluring it can push us to the arms of unexpected lovers. A sensation sooverwhelming it can knock down walls we built to protect our hearts. A feelingso intense it resurfaces even though we try so hard to keep it buried. Yes, ofall emotions, passion is the one that gives us a reason to live and an excuseto commit all sorts of crimes.

激情，就算它在逝去很久以后，仍是让人如此难以忘记。它是如此强烈的诱惑，把我们推到意想不到的爱人怀中；它是无法抗拒的感情，击垮了我们修筑起来的保护心灵的高墙；它是那尽管我们如此努力的埋藏，却仍浮出水面的炙热情感。是的，在所有的情绪中，激情给了我们生活下去的理由，却也给我们了犯下各种罪刑的借口。

8. Yes, it canhappen so quickly. Life as we know it can change in the blink of an eye.Unlikely friendships can blossom. Important careers can be tossed aside. Along-lost hope can be rekindled. Still, we should be grateful for whateverchanges life throws at us, because all too soon the day will come when thereare no changes left.

是的，世事瞬息万变。转眼之间，面目全非。不可能的友谊可以开花结果，重要的事业可以放置一边，灰飞烟灭的希望可以重新点燃。不论如何，我们仍然要感激生活的改变，因为不久末日来临，就不在有任何改变了。

9. Sweetie, wecan't prevent what can't predict. Isn’t there anything I could do? Yes, yes.You can enjoy this beautiful day. We get so few of them.

亲爱的，我们不能防止那些无法预知的事情。难道没有什么是我能做的吗？有的，有的。你可以尽情享受这美好的一天，我们很少有机会享受的。

10. We all carrysomething with us. Of course, it's nice if we travel with someone who can helplighten the load. But usually, it's easier to just drop what we've beencarrying so we can get home that much sooner.

Assuming, ofcourse, there will be someone there to greet us when we arrive. Why do weclutch at this baggage, even when we're desperate to move on? Because we allknow there's a chance we might let go too soon.

我们都在负重前行。当然，能结伴而行会很幸福,有人帮助分担重负。但通常抛掉负担会更简单。这样我们就能早日归家。设想着，当然,有人会在家迎接我们归来。为什么有人仍然抓住行李不放，即使我们不顾一切的向前看。因为我们都知道，有的机会也许我们放弃的太快。
