[02:30.62]and want to be my friend.
[02:32.50]并想和我交朋友而绞尽脑汁。
[02:34.37]I grew out of that and stopped thinking and worrying about what other people said.
[02:38.35]我没有受到这些事的影响．没有担心别人对我的评价．
[02:42.32]I started to dress for myself but no one else.
[02:45.15]我开始为自己而不是为别人来穿衣了。
[02:47.98]All these people would compliment my outfits,even the popular kids.

[04:01.88]What's a Friend in the True Sense?
[04:04.26]怎样才算真正的朋友？
[04:06.64]If I were asked "Do you have a friend in your life that you would do anything for?"
[04:10.11]如果有人问我”在你的生命中．有没有一个朋友是你愿意为他做任何事的？”
[04:13.58]I would make a challenge:
[04:15.51]我将会对这个问题的本身提出质疑：
[04:17.44]a friend is not someone you would do anything for,
[04:20.15]朋友不是一个你愿意为他做任何事的人．
[04:22.87]but someone for whom there are things that you would never do,
[04:25.90]而是一个你永远不会为他做某些事的人．
[04:28.92]not out of spite,but out of love.
[04:31.35]这样做并非出于恶意，却是出于爱。
[04:33.78]One would "do anything" for a master or an idol,
[04:36.80]一个人会为主人或偶像“做任何事”，
[04:39.83]but for a true friend,
[04:41.65]但对于一个真正的朋友．
[04:43.46]one must qualify the statement.
[04:45.68]人必须做到上述这点。
[04:47.89]A friend is not even someone you would never hurt,
[04:50.77]朋友甚至不是你永远不会伤害的人，
[04:53.65]because sometimes,
[04:55.36]因为有时候．
[04:57.07]in someone or others' words,
[04:59.09]用其他人或者某位贤者的话来说．
[05:01.10]"You gotta be cruel to be kind."
[05:03.32]对他残忍才是为他着想，
[05:05.53]If a friend asked you to conceal a serious problem,would you?
[05:08.75]要是一个朋友要求你帮他隐瞒一个很严重的问题．你会照做吗？
[05:11.98]You shouldn't.
[05:13.51]你不应该这样做
[05:15.04]Friendship is knowing when to exercise judgment and when to silence it.
[05:18.46]友谊是清楚何时该作评论，何时该默不作声。
[05:21.88]There are a few people for whom I would do anything,
[05:24.49]有很多人都能让我愿意为他们做任何事．
[05:27.10]but I would never call myself their friend:
[05:29.47]但我不认为我是他们的朋友．
[05:31.85]perhaps a fan, but never a friend.
[05:34.31]我可能是他们的崇拜者，但绝不是朋友。
[05:36.78]If someone can so rob you of self-respect and self-control,
[05:40.11]如果有人能这样夺走你的自尊心和自控权，
[05:43.44]would you call him or her a friend?
[05:45.62]你会把他称为朋友吗？
[05:47.80]Should you?
[05:49.22]你应该这样做吗？
[05:50.64]Please forgive--I cannot condone a question like this.
[05:53.61]请原谅我----我不能在这样的问题上妥协。

[07:17.36]and tell him more than what I said.
