凯拉·奈特莉 | 分享自己的人生哲学

Hello, I'm Keira Knightley. I'm here with Harper's Bazaar UK, and I'm gonna give you some life lessons.
大家好，我是凯拉·奈特莉。我在英国版《时尚芭莎》与大家分享一些自己的人生哲学。

You do get more confident as you get older. I don't know why that is. I guess you've experienced more, you've gone through the highs and lows already, you just have kind of like a better sense of yourself, you also understand that you're never going to please everybody and that that's an impossible thing to go with.

随着年龄的增长，你会变得更加自信。我不知道为什么会出现这种改变。我想可能你因为你的人生阅历更丰富了，你已经体验过人生的高潮和低谷，你对自己有更深刻的认知，你也明白你不可能永远去取悦所有人。

So I think you just kind of have the confidence to go: this is me; and you're not all going to like it, that's fine, but it's really nice when you have a day when you're feeling really confident.

所以你可以自信地说：我就是我。虽然并不是所有人都会喜欢你，但也没关系。而当你有一天感到非常自信时，就很棒了。

Oh, style's about doing what you want, style's about making yourself feel good, and if you feel good then you'll look good. When I was six, I had two track suits, and they were shell suits, and one was like pink and white, and the other one was black and purple and green, and I love them and that's all I'd wear.

时尚就是做你想做的事，时尚就是让自己感觉良好。如果你自己感觉良好，那么你看起来也是状态良好的。在我六岁的时候，我有两套贝壳装运动服，一套是粉白色的，另一套有是黑色、紫色和绿色的，我喜欢这两套衣服，那也就是我当时想穿的（衣服）。

And over the last year, the same thing has happened, and I've got two track suits, and one is blue and one is green, and I've just worn that, so I think style has gone out the window, but I've been like really comfortable.

而在去年，同样的事情发生了，我买了两套运动服，一套是蓝色的，一套是绿色的，我就这样穿，所以我觉得即使风格已经过时了，但只要自己感觉非常舒服就行。

Best piece of beauty advice I've ever given is: taking makeup off at the end of the night. Although actually even that isn't completely true, because although I think you should take your foundation off. Quite often eye makeup looks better the next day. You just kind of tidy it up a bit under the bottom. It looks very cool and smoky.

我给过最好的美妆建议是：晚上要卸妆。不过这其实也不完全正确，因为虽然我认为你应该卸掉粉底，但很多时候，把眼妆留到第二天，它会更好看些。你只要在底妆的基础上稍微整理一下妆容，就会看起来很酷，很有朦胧感。

What's made me feel made up instantly is I have red nails, which again I haven't had for like the last year and I suddenly feel a bit, I feel a bit glamorous.

让我时刻觉得自己化了妆的是我做的红色美甲，这也是我去年没做过的，我今年突然觉得美甲很迷人。

The things that I think are beautiful are always the imperfect things, aren't they? It's always like somebody's imperfections, which you end up completely falling in love with and finding absolutely beautiful. So it's always different, I think it's different in person to what it is in pictures or on film or whatever.

我觉得美好的事物也都是不完美的，不是吗？它就像某个人的不完美一样，你最终会完全爱上这种不完美，并发现它其实是非常美好的。所以关于美好的事物是什么，这是因人而异的，而且我认为它在人前和在照片或电影或其他东西上也有所不同。

How do I stand up for what I believe in, and how do I know my worth? I think again you get a sense of self, like you get a sense of what you're okay with and what you're not okay with, not worrying as much about pleasing absolutely everybody.

我如何捍卫我的信仰，又如何了解自己的价值？我想你会有一种自我意识，比如你能感觉到什么是你可以接受的，什么是你无法接受的，而不用去担心要如何取悦所有人。

You have the freedom to walk away, and through the freedom to walk away, I think you know what will make you stay, and you know the sort of people that you want to work with, and you know how you want to be treated, and therefore how you're going to treat other people, so I think that gives you a sort of sense of worth.

你有离开的自由，通过这种自由，我想你会知道什么值得你停留，你会知道你想和哪种人共事，你会知道你希望他人如何待你，从而你也会知道你将如何待人。所以，我认为你的价值感就是从这而来。

I think success is a funny one. I think because you can be incredibly successful and not feel incredibly successful, and I think success is different for everybody, so I think you can't use other people as your benchmark. I think you have to find what feels right for you.

我认为成功是很有趣的。因为可能你非常成功，但你不会认为自己非常成功，而且我觉得每个人对成功的定义都不一样。因此，我觉得你不能把别人当作你的标准，你必须找到属于你自己的成功。

I did always know that I wanted to work in acting, yes. I think you need to have a very thick skin. So I think if you don't have one, then you need to go about trying to get one quite quickly.

我一直都清楚我是很想在演艺圈工作的，是的。我觉得（在演艺圈）你得把脸皮放厚些，如果你还没做到的话，那么你得让自己尽快让自己变成厚脸皮。

Oh, you never deal with unfair criticism. I mean it always hurts doesn't matter how old you get, really generally speaking, the people who are unfairly criticizing you,as opposed to fairly criticizing you, which is different, are normally the people that don't know you and therefore kind of what are they basing it on anyway.

你从来都不必接受不公正的评价。我的意思是，不管你多大岁数，总的来说，那些不公正地评价你的人，与客观评价你的人不同，他们通常都不了解你，因此他们的评价毫无依据可言。

So I think it always kind of helps to sort of take a step back, and go actually what are we talking about. And as soon as you realize that, it's all just puff and it's a bit silly, and it kind of makes you feel better but it hurts the time. You always go through the moment when it hurts, before you can get the perspective on it to go like: oh, no, I'm fine.

不过，我觉得这对于让我们退一步，并回到我们真正在谈论的话题上来总归有点帮助。一旦你意识到这一点，你会觉得一切都是浮云，甚至有点傻，这样你会好受些，不过这需要时间。只有当你经历痛苦之后，你才能从中明白：哦，不，其实我很好。

What empowers me? I think a sense of autonomy, freedom over choices, and a sense of being my own self, and making my own decisions, and seeing other people do that as well.

是什么赋予我力量？我觉得是一种自主意识，是选择的自由，是做自己的感觉，是自主做决定，也是见证别人能这样做。

I learn about feminism. Until we're all free, none of us are free; and until we all have equality, none of us have equality; and until the fight continues, I hope that they continue the fight, I hope that they know their own worth, I hope that they expect that if they put as much work in as their male counterpart, then they should be rewarded in the same way, and that they should be treated with respect and treat others with respect.

我了解女权主义。在我们都实现自由之前，我们都不自由；在我们都实现平等之前，我们都不平等；在斗争继续之前，我希望她们继续斗争，我希望她们能明白自己的价值，我希望她们期望如果她们付出和男性同行同样的努力，那么她们也应该得到同等的回报；她们应该受到尊重，也应该尊重他人。

What have I learned about friendship? I think what's amazing is when you find people who you feel utterly relaxed with, and actually they're… I've found they're really few and far between, and they're the ones that you want to hold on to.

关于友谊，我学到了什么？我认为神奇的是，当你与那种可以让你完全放松的人在一起时，实际上他们…我发现这一类人真的很少很少，而他们也恰恰是你想留住的人。

Love. What have I learned about love? Um, I think what's been really interesting, you know when you're kind of in your sort of late teens early twenties, and you might fall in love with the... for the first time, you equate love with just that romantic love, and that romantic love is great.

爱。关于爱我学到了什么？嗯，我觉得特别有意思的是，在你接近二十岁或者二十几岁的时候，你可能会初次爱上一个人……这时候你把爱等同于浪漫的爱，而那种浪漫的爱也是伟大的爱。

And then as you sort of get older, you find out that there are all sorts of different loves, and that they change and that it's not something that stays the same, and you might have kids, and suddenly love is again a completely different thing, and the love for your friends is a completely different thing.

然后随着年龄的增长，你会邂逅各种类型的爱，因为爱并不是一成不变的，它会随着时间而改变。后来你可能会有孩子，在那时，爱突然之间变成了一种截然不同的东西，而你对朋友的爱又是完全不同的。

So I sort of love the fact that it's an evolving ever-changing thing, um, I think that makes it even more special.

所以我喜欢这样一个事实：爱是不断发展变化的，也正是这个特点让爱更加特别。

Life advice from another woman has got to be my mum, which is “cancel and continue”, which I think is the only advice that you really need in life at all, because it's up and down, it's always going to be up and down even when things go well.

来自另一个女人的人生建议那必须是我母亲的：“停下来，然后继续前进”，我认为这是你在生活中真正需要的唯一建议，因为生活是跌宕起伏的，即使进展顺利的事情，其中也会穿插着起起落落。

You know your emotional state. Life, in general, it's sort of like the weather, and when you've been through something bad, you just need to go: okay, dunk, move forward. So she's always said “cancel and continue”, and I found that very helpful from being a kid to now.
