Have no fear of perfection -- you'll never reach it.
不要为十全十美担心，你永远也做不到十全十美。
keep a lid on
控制情绪或保守秘密，保持沉默或保持安静。
这个短语的起源可以追溯到烹饪中使用的锅盖或容器顶盖。当食物在烹调过程中开始沸腾或喷溅时，我们会将锅盖盖在锅上以防止飞溅。这样做可以保持食物的温度稳定，并控制飞溅的范围。类似地，当我们让某人"keep a lid on it"时，我们希望他们能够控制情绪或保持秘密，就像锅盖一样保持事态的稳定和受控状态。它常常用于警告某人不要透露或泄露秘密信息，或者不要表达过多的情绪，以免引起问题或麻烦。
They were planning a surprise party for their friend and needed everyone to keep a lid on it. They gathered in secret, making all the preparations behind closed doors. Excitement filled the air as they carefully decorated and laid out the surprise. Each person anxiously awaited the moment when their friend would walk through the door. It was challenging to keep a lid on their excitement, but they knew it would be worth it to see the look of surprise on their friend's face.
