One of the things he always told me was don't be afraid to be different. In other words, when you have that desire, that drive to of people are going to try to pull you away from that, and pull you closer to the pack to be "normal." And he's saying: 'It's OK to be that driven, it's OK to be obsessed with what you want to do. That's perfectly fine. Don't be afraid to deviate from that.' One of the books that he gave me that helped him communicate with me was Jonathan Livingston Seagull, which was about that.
他对我的众多教导中有一个是不要害怕自己与众不同。换句话说,当你有渴望的时候,人们总是想法设法让你无法达成,这就使你更趋于平常了。他还说:“与众不同是好的,做自己想要做的事情也是好的。相当完美。别害怕偏离它。”他与我交流的一本他送给我的书关于乔纳森利文斯通海鸥的书,也讲到了这个。
Beyond the genius of what he is, he's just a genuinely, genuinely nice person. He got me hooked on movies that I would normally never watch. Fred Astaire movies. All the old classics. I would never, never watch those. I remember my fiancé and I telling him we were getting married, and him just being really excited, and actually just offering up the ranch to have our wedding there, because privacy was going to be an issue. We wanted to get married in a church, so that's what we wound up doing. But he made the offer. He's just a genuinely nice person, who is exceptionally bright, exceptionally bright, and driven, and talented. You mix those things together, man, you have Michael Jackson.
除了是个天才之外,他还是个非常非常真诚的善良的人。他让我迷恋上了我通常永远都不会看的电影。弗雷德阿斯泰尔(Fred Astaire)的电影。那些经典片。我从没想过要看那些。我记得当时我的未婚妻和我告诉他我们要结婚的时候,他非常激动,热情地为我们提供他的农场作为婚礼的场地,因为那里能保护隐私。我们想要在教堂里结婚,最终我们也在教堂举行婚礼了。但他做出了那样的提议。他真的是相当真诚善良的人,又出人意料的聪明,出人意料的聪明,有感染力,有天赋。当你把这些元素都混合在一起的时候,Michael Jackson就出现了。 |
