【電影】《年少時代》，紀律和用功呢？被劇情打臉

我很擔心你，梅森。

為什麼？

讓我告訴你為什麼。你正在沖洗的那些照片啊，它們很酷，你觀看事物有很獨特的視角，你擁有與生俱來的洋溢才華。

謝謝。

嗯啊…但那五毛錢只能讓你在這老派的世界買一杯咖啡。這幾年來，我看過太多有才華的人了，有幾個人在沒有紀律、承諾及誠正良善的工作倫理下，將才華發展成專業的？我敢跟你說，我可以用兩隻手指頭數出來，０！（OK手勢）這不該發生在你身上吧，梅森。這世界有太多競爭了。同時也有相當多有才華、並且樂意辛勤工作的人，還有更多沒天賦、但試圖超越你的傻蛋。事實上，那些人絕大多數現在都坐在教室裡。你知道他們在幹麻嗎？他們在做那些你也該做的作業，但你沒做，你在這裡，為什麼會這樣？你很特別嗎，梅森？


I'm worried about you, Mason.

Why's that?

I'll tell you why. The images you are turning in, they are cool. You are looking at things in a really unique way. You've got a lot of nature talent.

Thanks

Yeah, but that fifty cent will only get you a cup of coffee in this old world. I've met a lot of talented people over the years. How many of them made it professionally without discipline, commitment and real good work ethics? I can tell you, I can count on two fingers. Zero. It's not gonna happen for you, Mason. The world is too competitive. There too many talented people who are willing to work hard, and a load of morons who are untalented are trying to surpass you. As a matter of fact, a lot of them are sitting in the classroom right now. You know what they are doing? They are doing their assignments, which is what you are supposed to be doing. But you are not. You are in here. And why is that? You are special, Mason?
