00:13
I was hoping today to talk a little bit about creativity.
0
13312
4053
Trebalo bi da govorim o kreativnosti.
00:17
You know, a lot of people really struggle
1
17389
1970
Znate, mnogo ljudi se plaši
00:19
to give themselves permission to be creative.
2
19383
2219
slobode da budu kreativni.
00:21
And reasonably so.
3
21626
1259
I ne bez razloga.
00:22
I mean, we're all a little suspect of our own talent.
4
22909
2757
Svi pomalo sumnjamo u svoj talenat.
00:25
And I remember a story I came across in my early 20s
5
25690
3980
Sećam se priče na koju sam naišao sa svojih dvadesetak godina
00:29
that kind of meant a lot to me.
6
29694
2290
i koja mi je mnogo značila.
00:32
I was really into Allen Ginsberg,
7
32008
1629
Alen Ginsberg me je opčinio,
00:33
and I was reading his poetry,
8
33661
1429
i čitao sam njegovu poeziju,
00:35
and I was reading -- he did a lot of interviews --
9
35114
2785
i čitao - davao je mnogo intervjua -
00:37
and one time, William F. Buckley had this television program
10
37923
4311
i jednom prilikom, Vilijam F. Bakli je imao televizijski program
00:42
called "Firing Line,"
11
42258
1540
koji se zvao "Linija vatre"
00:43
and Ginsberg went on there and sang a Hare Krishna song
12
43822
3955
i u kojem je Ginsberg učestvovao pevajući Hare Krišna
00:47
while playing the harmonium.
13
47801
2094
dok je svirao na harmonijumu.
00:49
And he got back to New York to all his intelligentsia friends,
14
49919
2914
Vratio se u Njujork svojim prijateljima intelektualcima,
00:52
and they all told him,
15
52857
1151
a oni su mu svi rekli,
00:54
"Don't you know that everybody thinks you're an idiot,
16
54032
2559
"Zar ne znaš da svi misle da si idiot,
00:56
and the whole country's making fun of you?"
17
56615
2111
smeje ti se cela država?"
00:59
And he said, "That's my job.
18
59369
2221
A on je rekao, "To mi je posao.
01:02
I'm a poet, and I'm going to play the fool.
19
62679
2631
Ja sam pesnik i izigravaću budalu.
01:05
Most people have to go to work all day long,
20
65334
2430
Većina ljudi mora da radi po ceo dan,
01:07
and they come home and they fight with their spouse,
21
67788
2454
vrate se kući i svađaju sa svojim supružnicima,
01:10
and they eat, and they turn on the old boob tube,
22
70266
2347
jedu i uključe stari televizor,
01:12
and somebody tries to sell them something,
23
72637
1971
a neko pokuša da im nešto proda,
01:14
and I just screwed all that up.
24
74632
1522
a ja sam sve to otkačio.
01:16
I went on and I sang about Krishna,
25
76178
2175
Otišao sam i pevao o Krišni,
01:18
and now they're sitting in bed and going, 'Who is this stupid poet?'
26
78377
3725
i sada oni sede u krevetu i pitaju "Ko je ovaj glupi pesnik?"
01:22
And they can't fall asleep, right?"
27
82126
1713
I ne mogu da zaspu, je l' tako?"
01:23
And that's his job as a poet.
28
83863
2228
A to jeste njegov posao kao pesnika.
01:26
And so, I find that very liberating,
29
86115
1832
Ovo smatram veoma oslobađajućim,
01:27
because I think that most of us really want to offer the world
30
87971
3965
jer mislim da većina nas zaista želi da ponudi svetu
01:31
something of quality,
31
91960
1775
nešto kvalitietno,
01:33
something that the world will consider good or important.
32
93759
3460
nešto što će svet smatrati dobrim ili važnim.
01:37
And that's really the enemy,
33
97243
2980
A tu leži prepreka,
01:40
because it's not up to us whether what we do is any good,
34
100247
4598
jer ne odlučujemo mi o tome da li je ono što radimo dobro,
01:44
and if history has taught us anything,
35
104869
2062
a ako nas je istorija ičemu naučila,
01:46
the world is an extremely unreliable critic.
36
106955
2747
to je da je svet izuzetno nepostojan kritičar.
01:50
Right?
37
110178
1155
Zar ne?
01:51
So you have to ask yourself:
38
111730
1447
Onda se morate zapitati:
01:53
Do you think human creativity matters?
39
113891
3653
Da li mislite da je ljudska kreativnost važna?
01:58
Well, hmm.
40
118649
1995
Pa, hmm.
02:00
Most people don't spend a lot of time thinking about poetry. Right?
41
120668
4298
Većina ljudi ne provodi mnogo vremena razmišljajući o poeziji. Je l' tako?
02:04
They have a life to live,
42
124990
1225
Moraju da žive,
02:06
and they're not really that concerned with Allen Ginsberg's poems
43
126239
3110
i ne bave se poezijom Alena Ginzberga
02:09
or anybody's poems,
44
129373
1326
ili nekom drugom,
02:10
until their father dies,
45
130723
2547
dok im ne umre otac,
02:13
they go to a funeral,
46
133294
1185
odu na sahranu,
02:14
you lose a child,
47
134503
1958
izgubite dete,
02:16
somebody breaks your heart, they don't love you anymore,
48
136485
2654
neko vam slomi srce, prestanu da vas vole,
02:19
and all of a sudden,
49
139163
1171
i odjednom,
02:20
you're desperate for making sense out of this life,
50
140358
3828
očajnički tražite smisao svog života,
02:24
and, "Has anybody ever felt this bad before?
51
144210
3419
i, da li se iko ikada osećao ovako loše?
02:27
How did they come out of this cloud?"
52
147653
1804
Kako su se oni izvukli iz ovoga?
02:29
Or the inverse -- something great.
53
149481
1777
Ili obrnuto - nešto veličanstveno.
02:31
You meet somebody and your heart explodes.
54
151282
2039
Upoznate nekoga i srce vam eksplodira.
02:33
You love them so much, you can't even see straight.
55
153345
2821
Volite toliko da niste u stanju da mislite kako treba.
02:36
You know, you're dizzy.
56
156190
1173
Znate već, vrti vam se.
02:37
"Did anybody feel like this before? What is happening to me?"
57
157387
2977
"Da li se neko osećao ovako ranije? Šta mi se dešava?"
02:40
And that's when art's not a luxury, it's actually sustenance.
58
160388
4549
I tada umetnost više nije luksuz, već životna hrana.
02:44
We need it.
59
164961
1190
Treba nam.
02:46
OK. Well, what is it?
60
166175
2124
OK. Pa, šta je to?
02:48
Human creativity is nature manifest in us.
61
168323
5225
Ljudska kreativnost je manifestacija prirode u nama.
02:53
We look at the, oh ...
62
173572
2844
Posmatramo, recimo,
02:57
the aurora borealis. Right?
63
177563
1427
auroru borealis. Da?
02:59
I did this movie called "White Fang" when I was a kid,
64
179014
2565
Glumio sam u filmu "Beli očnjak", kao klinac,
03:01
and we shot up in Alaska,
65
181603
1210
i snimali smo na Aljasci,
03:02
and you go out at night
66
182837
1154
izašli smo napolje noću
03:04
and the sky was like rippling with purple and pink and white,
67
184015
3440
a nebo paraju ljubičasta i roze i bela,
03:07
and it's the most beautiful thing I ever saw.
68
187479
2128
i to je najlepša stvar koju sam ikada video.
03:09
It really looked like the sky was playing.
69
189631
2240
Izgledalo je kao da se nebo igra.
03:11
Beautiful.
70
191895
1151
Predivno.
03:13
You go to Grand Canyon at sundown.
71
193070
1629
Gledate suton u Grand kanjonu.
03:14
It's beautiful.
72
194723
1151
Prelepo.
03:15
We know that's beautiful.
73
195898
1225
Znamo da je prelepo.
03:17
But fall in love?
74
197147
1505
Ali zaljubljivanje?
03:18
Your lover's pretty beautiful.
75
198676
1464
Vaša ljubav je prilično lepa.
03:20
I have four kids.
76
200164
1687
Imam četvoro dece.
03:21
Watching them play?
77
201875
1524
Posmatranje njihove igre?
03:23
Watching them pretend to be a butterfly
78
203423
2268
Gledam ih dok se pretvaraju da su leptiri
03:25
or run around the house and doing anything,
79
205715
2173
ili samo trče po kući i ne rade ništa.
03:27
it's so beautiful.
80
207912
2336
To je tako lepo.
03:30
And I believe that we are here on this star in space
81
210272
4139
I verujem da smo ovde na ovoj zvezdi u svemiru
03:34
to try to help one another. Right?
82
214435
2580
da pokušamo da pomognemo jedni drugima. Zar ne?
03:37
And first we have to survive,
83
217039
2422
A prvo treba da preživimo,
03:39
and then we have to thrive.
84
219485
1363
a onda i da se razvijamo.
03:40
And to thrive, to express ourselves,
85
220872
3334
Da se razvijamo, da izrazimo sebe,
03:44
alright, well, here's the rub: we have to know ourselves.
86
224230
2883
da, pa, upravo tu je smetnja: moramo da poznajemo sebe.
03:47
What do you love?
87
227137
1363
Šta volite?
03:49
And if you get close to what you love,
88
229000
2156
A ako otkrijete šta volite,
03:51
who you are is revealed to you,
89
231180
1712
otkrićete i ko ste,
03:52
and it expands.
90
232916
1753
i tako idete sve dalje.
03:54
For me, it was really easy.
91
234693
1723
Meni je bilo stvarno lako.
03:56
I did my first professional play. I was 12 years old.
92
236440
2584
Prvi put sam profesionalno nastupao sa dvanaest godina.
03:59
I was in a play called "Saint Joan" by George Bernard Shaw
93
239048
2833
Igrao sam u komadu "Sveta Džoan" od Džordža Bernarda Šoa
04:01
at the McCarter Theatre,
94
241905
1356
U MekKarter pozorištu,
04:03
and -- boom! -- I was in love.
95
243285
1908
i - bum! - zaljubio sam se.
04:05
My world just expanded.
96
245908
2015
Moj svet se proširio.
04:08
And that profession -- I'm almost 50 now --
97
248345
2146
A ta profesija - imam skoro 50 sada -
04:10
that profession has never stopped giving back to me,
98
250515
2778
nikada nije prestala da mi uzvraća,
04:13
and it gives back more and more,
99
253317
2032
i uzvraća mi sve više,
04:15
mostly, strangely,
100
255373
2593
uglavnom, što je čudno,
04:17
through the characters that I've played.
101
257990
1953
kroz likove koje sam glumio.
04:19
I've played cops, I've played criminals,
102
259967
3030
Glumio sam policajce, kriminalce,
04:23
I've played priests, I've played sinners,
103
263021
2624
sveštenike, grešnike,
04:25
and the magic of this over a lifetime, over 30 years of doing this,
104
265669
4727
a magija ovoga u životu, više od 30 godina se bavim time,
04:30
is that you start to see that my experiences,
105
270420
2865
je da počnete da uviđate, da moja iskustva,
04:33
me, Ethan, is not nearly as unique
106
273309
3376
moja, Itanova, nisu ni približno tako jedinstvena,
04:36
as I thought.
107
276709
1151
kao što sam mislio.
04:37
I have so much in common with all these people.
108
277884
3039
Imam toliko zajedničkog sa svim tim ljudima.
04:40
And so they have something in common with me.
109
280947
2816
A i oni sa mnom.
04:44
You start to see how connected we all are.
110
284400
4106
Počnete da uviđate koliko smo svi povezani.
04:48
My great-grandmother, Della Hall Walker Green,
111
288530
3725
Moja prabaka, Dela Hol Voker Grin,
04:52
on her deathbed,
112
292279
1826
je na svojoj samrtnoj postelji,
04:54
she wrote this little biography in the hospital,
113
294129
3715
napisala malu biografiju u bolnici,
04:57
and it was only about 36 pages long,
114
297868
2787
i bila je svega 36 strana duga,
05:00
and she spent about five pages
115
300679
3355
a od toga je na pet stranica
05:04
on the one time she did costumes for a play.
116
304058
3109
opisivala kako je jednom izrađivala kostime za pozorišni komad.
05:07
Her first husband got, like, a paragraph.
117
307191
3146
Prvom mužu je dodelila, pa, jedan pasus.
05:10
Cotton farming, of which she did for 50 years, gets a mention.
118
310361
4994
Samo je pomenula uzgoj pamuka čime se, inače, bavila 50 godina.
05:15
Five pages on doing these costumes.
119
315379
2987
Pet stranica o izradi ovih kostima.
05:18
And I look -- my mom gave me one of her quilts that she made,
120
318390
3439
Mama mi je dala jedan od prekrivača koje je sašila,
05:21
and you can feel it.
121
321853
1181
i možete osetiti.
05:23
She was expressing herself,
122
323058
1879
Izražavala je sebe,
05:24
and it has a power that's real.
123
324961
2000
a to predstavlja pravu moć.
05:26
I remember my stepbrother and I went to go see "Top Gun,"
124
326985
3736
Sećam se kada smo moj polubrat i ja otišli da gledamo "Top Gan",
05:30
whatever year that came out.
125
330745
1591
neke godine kada se pojavio.
05:32
And I remember we walked out of the mall, it was, like, blazing hot,
126
332360
3227
I sećam se, bilo je vrelo, kada smo izašli iz tržnog centra,
05:35
I just looked at him,
127
335611
1195
samo sam ga pogledao,
05:36
and we both felt that movie just like a calling from God.
128
336830
3792
i obojica smo osetili taj film kao poruku sa neba.
05:40
You know? Just ...
129
340646
1791
Znate? Samo tako...
05:42
But completely differently.
130
342521
1305
Ali potpuno drugačije.
05:43
Like, I wanted to be an actor.
131
343860
1439
Ja sam želeo da budem glumac.
05:45
I was like, I've got to make something that makes people feel.
132
345299
2911
Bio sam, u fazonu, moram da nateram ljude da osećaju.
05:48
I just want to be a part of that.
133
348210
1671
Samo želim da budem deo toga.
05:49
And he wanted to be in the military.
134
349881
1724
A on je želeo da postane vojnik.
05:51
That's all we ever did was play FBI, play army man,
135
351605
2422
Igrali smo se samo agenata FBI-a, vojnika,
05:54
play knights, you know, and I'd like, pose with my sword,
136
354027
2691
vitezova, znate već, a ja bih, kao, pozirao držeći mač,
05:56
and he would build a working crossbow
137
356718
1778
a on bi napravio samostrel
05:58
that you could shoot an arrow into a tree.
138
358496
2013
kojim si mogao da gađaš drvo.
06:00
So he joins the army.
139
360629
1151
I, on postane vojnik.
06:01
Well, he just retired a colonel in the Green Berets.
140
361780
2650
Pa, penzionisao se kao pukovnik u Zelenim beretkama.
06:04
He's a multidecorated combat veteran of Afghanistan and Iraq.
141
364864
3849
Više puta odlikovan, ratni veteran Avganistana i Iraka.
06:08
He now teaches a sail camp for children of fallen soldiers.
142
368737
3502
Sada radi sa decom palih vojnika u kampu za jedrenje.
06:12
He gave his life to his passion.
143
372263
1677
Posvetio je svoj život strasti.
06:13
His creativity was leadership,
144
373964
2541
Njegova kreativnost je bila vođstvo,
06:16
leading others,
145
376529
1179
predvođenje drugih,
06:17
his bravery, to help others.
146
377732
1343
hrabrost, da pomogne drugom.
06:19
That was something he felt called to do,
147
379099
2384
Osećao se pozvanim da to radi,
06:21
and it gave back to him.
148
381507
2127
i to mu se vratilo.
06:23
We know this -- the time of our life is so short,
149
383658
2557
Znamo ovo - naš životni vek je tako kratak,
06:26
and how we spend it --
150
386239
1181
i kako ga provedemo -
06:27
are we spending it doing what's important to us?
151
387444
3373
da li ga iskoristimo radeći nešto što nam je važno?
06:30
Most of us not.
152
390841
1581
Većina nas ne.
06:32
I mean, it's hard.
153
392446
1582
Mislim, teško je.
06:34
The pull of habit is so huge,
154
394052
2460
Moć navike je tako jaka,
06:36
and that's what makes kids so beautifully creative,
155
396536
2579
i to čini decu tako čarobno kreativnom,
06:39
is that they don't have any habits,
156
399139
1948
jer ona nemaju navike,
06:41
and they don't care if they're any good or not, right?
157
401111
2565
i ne mare da li su dobra u nečemu ili ne, zar ne?
06:43
They're not building a sandcastle going,
158
403700
1987
Ne grade peščani dvorac razmišljajući,
06:45
"I think I'm going to be a really good sandcastle builder."
159
405711
3575
"Mislim da ću biti zaista dobar graditelj peščanih dvoraca."
06:49
They just throw themselves at whatever project you put in front of them --
160
409310
3908
Samo se bace na bilo koji projekat koji postavite pred njih -
06:53
dancing, doing a painting,
161
413242
1773
plesanje, slikanje,
06:55
building something:
162
415039
1411
pravljenje nečega:
06:56
any opportunity they have,
163
416474
1514
koriste svaku priliku,
06:58
they try to use it to impress upon you their individuality.
164
418012
4603
da bi vas zadivili svojom individualnošću.
07:03
It's so beautiful.
165
423107
1358
To je predivno.
07:05
It's a thing that worries me sometimes whenever you talk about creativity,
166
425107
3535
Ponekada me brine, kada govorite o kreativnosti,
07:08
because it can have this kind of feel that it's just nice,
167
428666
3044
kao o nečemu finom,
07:11
you know, or it's warm or it's something pleasant.
168
431734
3424
razumete, ili toplom, ili nečemu prijatnom.
07:15
It's not.
169
435182
1159
E, pa, nije.
07:16
It's vital.
170
436365
1317
Ona je vitalna.
07:17
It's the way we heal each other.
171
437706
2808
Ona je sredstvo kojim isceljujemo jedni druge.
07:20
In singing our song,
172
440538
2094
U pevanju pesama,
07:22
in telling our story,
173
442656
1615
u kazivanju priča,
07:24
in inviting you to say,
174
444295
1382
u pozivu da kažeš,
07:25
"Hey, listen to me, and I'll listen to you,"
175
445701
2703
"Hej, slušaj me, i ja ću slušati tebe."
07:28
we're starting a dialogue.
176
448428
2368
Tako započinjemo dijalog.
07:30
And when you do that, this healing happens,
177
450820
2809
A kada to učinite, počinje isceljenje,
07:33
and we come out of our corners,
178
453653
1810
i izlazimo iz svojih ćoškova,
07:35
and we start to witness each other's common humanity.
179
455487
2947
i međusobno postajemo svedoci obične ljudskosti.
07:38
We start to assert it.
180
458458
1444
I počinjemo da je iskazujemo.
07:39
And when we do that, really good things happen.
181
459926
3332
A kada to radimo, dešavaju se zaista dobre stvari.
07:43
So, if you want to help your community, if you want to help your family,
182
463282
3423
Pa, ako želite da pomognete svojoj zajednici, ili porodici,
07:46
if you want to help your friends,
183
466729
1611
svojim prijateljima,
07:48
you have to express yourself.
184
468364
2021
morate da izrazite sebe.
07:50
And to express yourself, you have to know yourself.
185
470409
2583
A da biste se izrazili, morate da poznajete sebe.
07:53
It's actually super easy.
186
473619
1714
To je, u stvari, super lako.
07:55
You just have to follow your love.
187
475796
2397
Samo morate da sledite svoju ljubav.
07:58
There is no path.
188
478217
2135
Ne postoji staza.
08:00
There's no path till you walk it,
189
480975
2594
Staza ne postoji dok vi ne zakoračite njome,
08:03
and you have to be willing to play the fool.
190
483593
2633
i morate biti voljni da izigravate budalu.
08:06
So don't read the book that you should read,
191
486250
3302
Zato ne čitajte knjigu koju bi trebalo da pročitate,
08:09
read the book you want to read.
192
489576
1813
čitajte knjigu koju želite da čitate.
08:11
Don't listen to the music that you used to like.
193
491413
3383
Ne slušajte muziku koju ste nekada voleli.
08:14
Take some time to listen to some new music.
194
494820
2290
Slušajte ponekad i nešto novo.
08:17
Take some time to talk to somebody that you don't normally talk to.
195
497134
3517
Porazgovarajte, povremeno, i sa nekim sa kim obično ne razgovarate.
08:20
I guarantee, if you do that,
196
500675
1931
Garantujem vam, ako to učinite,
08:22
you will feel foolish.
197
502630
1668
osećaćete se budalasto.
08:24
That's the point.
198
504973
1502
U tome je suština.
08:26
Play the fool.
199
506499
1461
Izigravajte budalu.
08:49
(Plays guitar)
200
529701
3059
(Svira gitaru)
08:54
(Sings) Well, I want to go Austin, and I wanna stay home.
201
534585
3914
(Peva) Želim da odem u Ostin, a želim i da ostanem kod kuće.
08:58
Invite our friends over but still be alone.
202
538523
3214
Pozovem prijatelje, ali i da ostanem sam.
09:01
Live for danger.
203
541761
1647
Živim opasno.
09:03
Play it cool.
204
543432
1518
Budem kul.
09:04
Have everyone respect me for being a fool.
205
544974
4140
I da me svi poštuju što izigravam ludu.
