1. That's why people shouldn't make plans. With no plan, nothing can go wrong and if something spins out of control, it doesn't matter.

这就是为什么人们不应该制定计划。没有计划,任何事情都不会出错,如果事情失控,也没关系。

(zhè jiùshì wèi shénme rénmen bù yīnɡɡāi zhìdìnɡ jìhuá. méiyǒu jìhuá, rènhé shìqínɡ dōu bùhuì chūcuò, rúɡuǒ shìqínɡ shīkònɡ, yě méi ɡuānxì)

2. Not "rich, but still nice." She's nice because she's rich. 

不是"有钱,但还善良。"她善良正是因为她有钱。

(bùshì yǒuqián, dàn hái shànliáng. tā shànliánɡ zhènɡshì yīnwèi tā yǒuqián.)

3.  Money is an iron. Those creases all get smoothed out.  

金钱是熨斗,这些折痕都被抚平了。

(jīnqián shì yùndòu, zhèxiē zhéhén dōu bèi fǔpínɡ le.)

4. We're all gathered here today to celebrate the reconnection of our phones, and this bounteous Wi-Fi! 

我们今天聚集在这里,庆祝我们的手机重新连接,和这个慷慨的无线信号!

(wǒmen jīntiān jùjí zài zhèlǐ, qìnɡzhù wǒmen de shǒujī chónɡxīn liánjiē, hé zhèɡè kānɡkǎi de wúxiàn xìnhào.)
