每週五「Love Yourself」專欄-趁著週末到來前,從她們身上學習一堂關於人生的課
去年今天,著名伊拉克裔英籍建築師Zaha Hadid病逝。被譽為建築界的先驅和夢想家的她,是首位獲得普立茲克建築獎(Pritzker Laureate)的女性。在她的世界裡,一切看似天馬行空的東西都可以成真,她就這麼一位「敢想」然後「敢做」的女性。 Zaha Hadid不單止在世界各地留下了自己的蹤影,她更留下寶貴的智慧,鼓勵女性敢於創新,勇敢追求自己的烏托邦。讓我們回味一下吧!
You really have to have a goal. The goal posts might shift, but you should have a goal. Know what it is you want to find out.
— Zaha Hadid
(譯:你必須要有目標。標竿可能會移動,但你必須要有目標。你要知道你想發掘的是甚麼。)
Women need to be encouraged and to have their confidence built up. I was very lucky because my family always believed that I could do it.
— Zaha Hadid, via The Observer
(譯:女性需要被鼓勵,建立信心。我很幸運因為家人相信我能夠做到。)
Your success will not be determined by your gender or your ethnicity, but only on the scope of your dreams and your hard work to achieve them.
— Zaha Hadid, via BBC Arts
(譯:你的成功不是由性別或種族而定,而是由你有多敢做夢、下了多少苦功而定。)

Sometimes, women feel they have to do everything—work, manage the house, look after the children—but there’s too much to do. So you have to learn early on that you can’t do everything yourself, and you have to learn to trust other people to work on your vision.
— Zaha Hadid, via The Guardian
(譯:有時候,女人覺得她們需要做所有事情──工作、處理家務、照顧小孩──但實在有太多事情要做了。要知道,你不能將所有東西都交給自己處理,你要相信其他人都能助你實現願景。)
I’m a feminist, because I see all women as smart, gifted and tough.
— Zaha Hadid
(譯:我是一位女權主義者,因為在我眼中女人都是聰明、有才和強悍的。)
I don’t think people should do things because you know, ‘I am turning this age, I must go have a husband.’ If you find somebody and it works out then have kids, it’s very nice. But if you don’t, you don’t.
— Zaha Hadid, via CNN
(譯:人做事,不應該受「到了某個年齡就應該要做某些事情」的思想影響,例如找丈夫。如果你找到了、找對了,生仔是無問題的,但如果你找不到,你就不要強迫自己。)
I will never give myself the luxury of thinking, ‘I’ve made it.’
— Zaha Hadid
(譯:我從來都不會給自己這樣的奢侈想法:我做到了。)
