ott álltam az asztal mellett,
that my professors can see
into making my designs practical
és fenntartható terveket készítenem.
no one says anything.
starts to speak, and he says,
és azt mondta:
because I wanted to solve real problems.
hogy valódi problémákat oldjak meg.
but it's kind of light --
from the stuff on the table next to me?
az asztalomon fekvő tárgyak?
make us feel intangible joy?"
kézzelfogható tárgyaktól?"
and gestured a lot with their hands.

és politikailag sarkított világunk

lévő különbségek túl hatalmasak,
that finds joy in the same things.
that these are just passing pleasures,
hogy ezek múló örömök,
of the shared humanity we find
of the physical world.

és nehezen azonosítható,

fizikai tulajdonságok által,
as the Greek word "aísthomai,"
közös a szótöve,
"I sense," "I perceive."
"megtapasztalok".
that joy begins with the senses,
hogy az öröm az érzékeknél kezdődik,
"az öröm esztétikájának";
