2014-02-23 整理/劉建輝 薦讀
我的朋友劉建輝辛苦整理了《紙牌屋》第一季裏的精彩台詞，發在他的公眾號：“美麗英語”裏，由點擊文尾的“閱讀原文”可關注它，這是一個學習、交流英語的地方。
我個人最近一直在追的美劇除了《紙牌屋》，還有《疑犯追蹤》、《機器之心》、《醜聞》。
如果你已讀過，不妨再讀一遍。
1. There are two kinds of pain.The sort of pain that makes you strong or useless pain...The sort of pain that's only suffering.
痛苦分兩種，一種讓你變得更強，另一種毫無價值，隻是徒添折磨。
2. And a person's character isn't determined by how he or she enjoys vitory，but rather how he or she endures defeat.

權力就像房地產,位置是所有的一切,你離中心越近,你的財產就越值錢。
4.He chose money over power--In this town, a mistake nearly everyone makes. Money is the McMansion in Sarasota that starts falling apart after ten years. Power is the old stone building that stands for centuries.
為了錢而放棄權力,這個城市裏幾乎人人都犯了這個錯。金錢是薩拉索塔的巨無霸豪宅，保質期就隻有十年，權力是古老的石砌建築，能屹立數百年。
5. Don't play dumb with me.
別跟我裝傻.
6. What are we supposed to do in the face of so much senseless pain? And he said to me,"What else can we do but take what seems meaningless and try to make something meaningful from it?"

12.I almost pity him. He didn't choose to be put on my platter.When I carve him up and toss him to the dogs,only then will he confront that brutal inescapable truth.
