Adam West is known as Batman(蝙蝠侠)to many people in the United States, who played the role in the Batman television series in the 1960s. Adam West says that after the show was 26 , he had a difficult time being less famous than he once was. But that period lasted just a short time 27 he went on with another job.
“It’s a(n) 28 of not really examining it. Just going along putting one foot 29 the other and not thinking too much about it. And, when work comes along, think about the work. It’s no 30 thing. It’s easy. If you are lost in the past, there is 31 to go but down.”
Burt Ward played Batman’s young helper Robin in the television series. Like Adam West, Burt Ward 32 often at fan meetings. Many people pay to see their childhood 33 , and are happy to have their picture taken with them.
“Actually, the fame is there – it just takes a different form. Some may think of our TV show being our 34 time, but when I meet people, they act just as 35 as when I was during Batman days. So, it’s not that the people 36 , but that the perception (看法) is different. Honestly, nothing has changed – I’m the same person as I was before.”
He says he has made a good living over the past 45 years. 37 he is paid for his work, that is all that matters. Being famous does not pay for food, housing and other costs, but 38 does.
If people can 39 that this is just part of the job – all the publicity, all the news, all the compliments(赞美), they could 40 keep a cool mind and not let it go to their heads. If they look at it as part of their personality and expect people to bow to them everywhere they go, that’s not going to happen! The early Christian philosopher St. Augustine said, “The desire for fame tempts (诱惑) even noble minds, but I would rather have truth than money or fame.”
