名人尷尬語錄
George Bush, US President 喬治·布什,美國總統
All I was doing was appealing for an endorsement, not suggesting you endorse it.
“我所做的一切只是為了呼吁你們投我的票,而不是暗示你們一定要投我的票。”
I have opinions of my own—strong opinions—but I don’t always agree with them.
“我有自己的見解——堅定的見解——但是我自己并不總是贊同它們。”
(這是2000年10月喬治·布什競選總統時對科羅拉多州州長所說的話。)
Al Gore, US Former Vice President 戈爾,美國前副總統
It isn’t pollution that’s harming the environment. It’s the impurities in our air and water that are doing it.?
“破壞環境的元兇并非污染,而是我們空氣和水中的雜質?!?/P>
We are ready for an unforeseen event that may or may not occur.
“我們已經準備好應對意外事件,它可能發生,也可能不會發生?!?/P>

If we don’t succeed, we run the risk of failure.
“如果不成功,我們就得承受失敗的風險。”
You know, if I were a single man, I might ask that mummy out. That’s a good-looking mummy!
“你知道,如果我是個單身漢,我可能會和木乃伊約會。那個木乃伊真好看!”

African-Americans watch the same news at night that ordinary Americans do.
“非洲裔美國人晚上看的新聞節目跟普通美國人看的別無二致?!?/P>

It is necessary for me to establish a winner image. Therefore, I have to beat somebody.
“對我來說,樹立一個勝利者的形象是必不可少的。因此,我不得不去擊敗別人?!?/P>
Mariah Carey 瑪利亞·凱莉,美國流行音樂歌手
Whenever I watch TV and see those poor starving kids all over the world, I can’t help but cry. I mean I'd love to be skinny like that, but not with all those flies and death and stuff.
“無論什么時候,只要在電視上看到世界上那些貧窮饑餓的兒童,我都會情不自禁地哭出聲來。我是說,我希望自己能像他們那樣瘦到只剩皮包骨,但不要跟所有那些蒼蠅、死亡之類的東西聯系在一起。”
Brooke Shields 波姬·小絲,聯邦禁煙運動代言人
Smoking kills. If you’re killed, you’ve lost a very important part of your life.
“吸煙可以致命。如果你因此喪命,你會失去你生命中非常重要的一部分?!?BR>(她在一次采訪中如是說)

Jon Davidson 喬恩·戴維森,“新世界”影視公司的廣告總監
Ordinary rape and murder just doesn’t make it anymore. It’s much better to have ultra-violence, chainsaw massacres, X-rated Draculas, and continents sinking into the sea with the entire population lost, at the very least.
“普通的強奸和謀殺再也行不通了。最好有一些極端的暴力事件,如肢解大屠殺,限制級的吸血鬼,陸地沉入海底以及整個人群滅絕等等,這些是最起碼的?!?/P>
(在談論怎樣制作一部好電影時說。)
Vlade Divac, NBA basketball player 弗拉德·迪瓦茨,NBA球星
We all get heavier as we get older because there’s a lot more information in our heads.
