"More than ever" . No one can draw from life like David Hockney – but more than ever are trying

 


No one can draw from life like David Hockney – but more than ever are trying
"More than ever" implies something that has been ongoing, and is now more than any previous time. I've been married to my wife for 20 years, and I still love her more than ever! "More than ever before" does seem a little redundant, but makes a little more sense if we are comparing separate events or measurements.Jul 5, 2017

Hollywood old hands are snooty about Amazon’s video efforts, and understandably so



Though supporters in the West lumped Mr Solzhenitsyn with the rest of the intelligentsia, he stood monumentally alone. A friendship with an Estonian prisoner, Arnold Susi, had exploded his lingering belief in Marxism; but he detested the self-regarding and snooty Russian intellectuals, the “well-read ones”, as he referred to them.




That made me smile, not because snooty audiophiles got the 'wrong' answer, but because it suggests great sound can come from popular, cheap gear.
這令我會心一笑﹐不僅是因為“勢利”(snnoty 可討論)的發燒友們得出了錯誤答案﹐而且還因為這意味著美妙的聲音可能來自一個普通廉價的設備。

popular不是"普通"
(snooty 翻譯成“勢利”之所以可討論 乃是當初用“勢利”來翻譯一英國專門說法snobbish 它可以表現"友善"......)

self-regard

n.
  1. Consideration of oneself or one's interests.
  2. Self-respect.


self-regarding action

An action that affects no one other than the agent. Some authorities locate this categorization of action in Kant's treatment of the ordinary moral consciousness, others in Bentham's account of the relationship between pains, pleasures, and motives. But the most extended classical treatment is undoubtedly in J. S. Mill's On Liberty (1859). Here Mill distinguishes a province of virtue from a province of duty. An action in the former province is self-regarding and subject only to personal persuasion and inducement. Such an action becomes other-regarding and open to public sanction if, and only if, it either harms an interest, violates a right, or neglects a duty owed to another person or persons. Hence a soldier or policeman merely drunk is self-regarding, a soldier or policeman drunk on duty is other-regarding. This kind of categorization is often regarded as one essential foundation of the liberty principle.

In Knoxville, I met a young woman who was working three jobs but still couldn’t make it on her own, and was so consumed with shame about her impoverishment that she didn’t want to show up at a local soup kitchen to supplement the little food she could afford.

  • It was that last detail - the piles of books pushed aside to make room to eat - that sent me in search of all of David's writings; I knew that here was a food writer after my own heart, stomach, and mind.
  • Here are people after my own heart, who love the great GKC and who incarnate his odd funky hilarious and sensible spirit better than anybody I know.
  • A man after my own heart, he still hand-codes his site for each entry, nesting tables within tables and thumbing his nose at structured data.
