THINGS I OVERHEARD WHILE(LPTP)(ISBN=9780739327579) 英文原版 下载 pdf 电子版 epub 免费 txt 2025

　　On the heels of his acclaimed memoir, Never Have Your Dog

Stuffed, beloved actor and bestselling author Alan Alda has written

Things I Overheard While Talking to Myself, an insightful and funny

look at some of the impossible questions he’s asked himself over

the years: What do I value? What, exactly, is the good life? (And

what does that even mean?)

Picking up where his bestselling memoir left off–having been

saved by emergency surgery after nearly dying on a mountaintop in

Chile–Alda finds himself not only glad to be alive but searching

for a way to squeeze the most juice out of his new life. Looking

for a sense of meaning that would make this extra time count, he

listens in on things he’s heard himself saying in private and in

public at critical points in his life–from the turbulence of the

sixties, to his first Broadway show, to the birth of his children,

to the ache of September 11, and beyond. Reflecting on the

transitions in his life and in all our lives, he notices that

“doorways are where the truth is told,” and wonders if there’s one

thing–art, activism, family, money, fame–that could lead to a “life

of meaning.”

In a book that is candid, wise, and as questioning as it is

incisive, Alda amuses and moves us with his unique and hilarious

meditations on questions great and small. Things I Overheard While

Talking to Myself is another superb Alan Alda performance, as

inspiring and entertaining as the man himself.

  So many funny and so true quotes

• 絮絮叨叨中有真谛

  第一感觉是Alda很偷懒，大量的直接引用他各处的演讲稿，这不就是攒书吗？而且感觉很絮叨。阅读过半，才渐入佳境。

  推荐

  Chap10 When the breeze was scarce, I named the boat Patience， Chap14 Taking the wider way

  Chap16 Bosco's belly

  尤其最后一章（第16章），妙语连珠，很精彩。

  在这里分享一些（因为看到目前本书还无人评论，算是抛砖引玉）

  “If you're bored, you're not paying attention."

  "Whenever I've wanted some meaning(about life), I've had to make it myself."

  "If you keep score, keep the scores your way. Don't let the world tell you success is a big house if you think success is a happy home."

  "I see now that I had my meaning all along, I just had to notice it."

  his comments on Henry Ford's assembly line

  "Not apocalypse now, Apocalypse later."

  Hope you all enjoy the book.

• 无可挑剔
