喬布斯在斯坦福大學(xué)的演講稿 1
Youve got to find what you love, Jobs says.
Jobs說,你必須要找到你所愛的東西。
This is the text of the Commencement address by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios, delivered on June 12, 2005.
這是蘋果公司和Pixar動畫工作室的CEO Steve Jobs于2005年6月12號在斯坦福大學(xué)的畢業(yè)典禮上面的演講稿。
I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest Ive ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. Thats it. No big deal. Just three stories.
我今天很榮幸能和你們一起參加畢業(yè)典禮,斯坦福大學(xué)是世界上最好的大學(xué)之一。我從來沒有從大學(xué)中畢業(yè)。說實話,今天也許是在我的生命中離大學(xué)畢業(yè)最近的一天了。今天我想向你們講述我生活中的三個故事。不是什么大不了的事情,只是三個故事而已。
The first story is about connecting the dots.
第一個故事是關(guān)于如何把生命中的點點滴滴串連起來。
I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?
我在Reed大學(xué)讀了六個月之后就退學(xué)了,但是在十八個月以后——我真正的作出退學(xué)決定之前,我還經(jīng)常去學(xué)校。我為什么要退學(xué)呢?
It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by alawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.
故事從我出生的時候講起。我的親生母親是一個年輕的,沒有結(jié)婚的大學(xué)畢業(yè)生。她決定讓別人收養(yǎng)我, 她十分想讓我被大學(xué)畢業(yè)生收養(yǎng)。所以在我出生的時候,她已經(jīng)做好了一切的準(zhǔn)備工作,能使得我被一個律師和他的妻子所收養(yǎng)。但是她沒有料到,當(dāng)我出生之后,律師夫婦突然決定他們想要一個女孩。 所以我的.生養(yǎng)父母(他們還在我親生父母的觀察名單上)突然在半夜接到了一個電話:“我們現(xiàn)在這兒有一個不小心生出來的男嬰,你們想要他嗎?”他們回答道:“當(dāng)然!”但是我親生母親隨后發(fā)現(xiàn),我的養(yǎng)母從來沒有上過大學(xué),我的父親甚至從沒有讀過高中。她拒絕簽這個收養(yǎng)合同。只是在幾個月以后,我的父母答應(yīng)她一定要讓我上大學(xué),那個時候她才同意。
And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldnt see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didnt interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.
在十七歲那年,我真的上了大學(xué)。但是我很愚蠢的選擇了一個幾乎和你們斯坦福大學(xué)一樣貴的學(xué)校, 我父母還處于藍領(lǐng)階層,他們幾乎把所有積蓄都花在了我的學(xué)費上面。在六個月后, 我已經(jīng)看不到其中的價值所在。我不知道我想要在生命中做什么,我也不知道大學(xué)能幫助我找到怎樣的答案。 但是在這里,我?guī)缀趸ü饬宋腋改高@一輩子的所有積蓄。所以我決定要退學(xué),我覺得這是個正確的決定。不能否認,我當(dāng)時確實非常的害怕, 但是現(xiàn)在回頭看看,那的確是我這一生中最棒的一個決定。在我做出退學(xué)決定的那一刻, 我終于可以不必去讀那些令我提不起絲毫興趣的課程了。然后我還可以去修那些看起來有點意思的課程。

今天,我太榮幸能和參加你們起參加畢業(yè)典禮,斯坦福大學(xué)是學(xué)院世界上的大學(xué)之。說實話,(雖然)我從來沒有從大學(xué)中畢業(yè),但今天是我生命中離大學(xué)畢業(yè)最近的天了。今天我想向你們講述我生活中的故事。不說大道理,就是三個故事而已。
The first story is about connecting the dots.
個故事是關(guān)于如何把生命中的點點滴滴串連起來。
I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?
我在里德學(xué)院讀到理工學(xué)院了六個月之后就退學(xué)了,但是在十八個年以后,我還經(jīng)常去學(xué)校。我為什么要退學(xué)呢?
It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college
graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: “We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him? They said: “Of course. My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college. This was the start in my life.
故事要從我的長大說起。我的親生母親是名出類拔萃未婚的大學(xué)畢業(yè)生。她決定讓別人收養(yǎng)我,她十分想讓大學(xué)畢業(yè)生收養(yǎng)我。所以在我出生前,她已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備切,讓位律師和他的妻子收養(yǎng)。但是她沒有料到,在我出生后,律師夫婦一家人突然決定要個女孩。所以,我的養(yǎng)父養(yǎng)母(他們當(dāng)時還在候選名單上)突然在半夜接到了個電話:“我們有個意外降生的女嬰,你們想收養(yǎng)他嗎?他們回答說: “當(dāng)然!但是我親生母親隨后發(fā)現(xiàn),我的養(yǎng)母從未上過大學(xué),我的養(yǎng)父高中沒畢業(yè)。于是她拒絕簽訂收養(yǎng)合同。但在幾個月以后,因為我的養(yǎng)父養(yǎng)母答應(yīng)她定要讓我上,她才心軟同意了。
And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldnt see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didnt interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked far more interesting.
在十七歲那年,我的確上大學(xué)了。但我天真地選擇了個幾乎和斯坦福大學(xué)樣貴的學(xué)校,我父母還處于工薪階層,為了交學(xué)費,他們幾乎耗光所有化為烏有。六個月后,我?guī)缀蹩床坏皆趯W(xué)校的內(nèi)在價值。我不知道(我生命中)要追求什么,我也不不弄清楚學(xué)校是否能幫我找到答案。但在學(xué)校,我將花光我獨吞母親這輩子的積蓄。所以,我決定退學(xué),并且我相信車到山前必有路。(不可否認),我當(dāng)時非常害怕,但現(xiàn)在回頭來看,這個決定是我生中最明智決定之。在我做出大三決定后,我再也不用去上那些我絲毫沒有的必修課,我開始去聽那些看起來有趣耐人尋味的科目。
It wasnt all romantic. I didnt have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:
這點也不羅曼蒂克。沒了宿舍,地板所以我要到朋本人家睡玻璃;為了填飽肚子,我撿過值5美分的可樂罐;為了每周頓的極大值的飯,每個星期天晚上,我穿街過巷,步行7里到Hare Krishna教堂。我喜歡那里的飯菜。在奇和直覺的引導(dǎo)下,我跌跌撞撞地遇到很多事兒,這些后來被證明是無價瑰寶。我給你們舉個例子吧:
Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was
beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didnt have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter
combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical,artistically subtle in a way that science cant capture, and I found it fascinating.
那時候,里德學(xué)院的書法課程也許是全美的。學(xué)校里的每個海報,抽屜上的每個標(biāo)簽,桌面上全都是漂亮的書法。因為我退學(xué)了,沒有了正常的課程,所以我決定去上/書法課,去學(xué)學(xué)怎樣寫出漂亮的字。我學(xué)到了san serif 和serif字體,我學(xué)會了怎么樣在不同的字母組合之中變化間距,還有怎么樣做的版式。那種美感、真實感和藝術(shù)感,是科學(xué)永遠不能捕捉到的,(我發(fā)現(xiàn))那實在是太火辣了。
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later,when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, its likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.
當(dāng)時這些東西似乎在我生命中沒什么可用之處。但十年之后,當(dāng)我們在設(shè)計臺Macintosh計算機的時候,就全部派上用場。我把眼下居然我學(xué)的那些東西全都融入到Mac。那是擁有漂亮字體的計算機系統(tǒng)將臺計算機。如果我當(dāng)時沒有退學(xué),我沒砝碼沉迷于書法課程,Mac就不會有種類繁多或的行距整齊的字體。如果Windows沒有抄襲Mac,個人電腦很可能將就不會這么多字體。如果我沒有退學(xué),我不會沉迷于書畫課程,個人電腦很可能將就不會這么多字體。當(dāng)然了,我在學(xué)校的時候不可能把這些點點滴滴提前串連起來。但在十年之后慈路,這些東西歷歷在目。
Again, you cant connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it would made all the difference.
再說次,你不可能把這些點點滴滴提前串連起來;你只能在回顧的時候把它們串連起來。所以你必須相信這些點點滴滴是和你的未來項鏈的。你必須要相信某些小東西:直覺、命運、生命、因緣等等。這個方法從來沒讓我失望過,它讓我與眾不同。
My second story is about love and loss.
我的二個故事是關(guān)于愛和失去。
I was lucky I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation the Macintosh a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.
我非常幸運,因為我在很早的時候就找到了我鐘愛的東西。我在二十歲的時候,和我在父母的車里面開創(chuàng)了蘋果司。我們努力工作,十年之后,蘋果從只有兩個的窮本人子的車司,發(fā)展到了員工已經(jīng)超過四千名、市值超過二十億的大司。在司成立的九年,我們剛剛正式發(fā)布了的產(chǎn)品Macintosh。我也正要到而立之年了。后來,我被炒魷魚了。你怎么可能被你自己創(chuàng)立的司炒了魷魚呢? 在微軟快速成長的時候,我們雇用了個很有天分的家伙和我起管理這個司,在最初的幾年風(fēng)調(diào)雨順。但是后來我們對司未來的'看法有了分歧,最終我們吵了進來。當(dāng)吵的不可開交的時候,董事會地鐵站在了他的那邊。所以在三十歲的時候,我被炒魷魚了。開地把我掃地出門了。曾經(jīng)是我整個生命的中心已經(jīng)不再有了,這讓我不知所措。
I really didnt know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous
generation of entrepreneurs down – that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.
有幾個月,我呵呵不知道該做些什么。我覺得我很令上代的企業(yè)家們很失望,因為我把他們還給我的接力棒弄丟了。我把事情搞砸了,我和(創(chuàng)辦HP的)David Packard和(創(chuàng)辦Intel的)Bob Noyce見面,并試圖向他們致歉。在眾面前,我是個失敗本人,我甚至想過逃離硅谷。但我后來慢慢看到了榮光,我仍然喜愛我從事的切。在蘋果發(fā)生的風(fēng)波,并沒有反而改變這點。雖然我被驅(qū)逐了,但是我仍鐘愛搞我所做的事情。所以我決定從頭再來。
I didnt see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
我當(dāng)時沒有覺察,但是事后證明,被蘋果掃地出門是我這生經(jīng)歷的的事。因為,作為個創(chuàng)業(yè)創(chuàng)業(yè)者本人的輕松感覺重新替代作為個成功本人的負重感,不要把每件事情都看得那么再說重。它(掃地出門)把我釋放出來,讓我進入了我生命中最有創(chuàng)造力的個階段。
During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apples current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.
在接下來的五年底下,我創(chuàng)立了個名叫NeXT的司,還有個叫Pixar的司,還有和位魅力阿姨相識神韻并相愛,她后來成為我的妻子。Pixar 制作了全球部由電腦制作的動畫電影“玩具總動員,Pixar現(xiàn)在也是全球上最成功的電腦制作工作室。在隨后系列運作中曾,蘋果收購了NeXT,我重返蘋果。我們在NeXT研發(fā)的核心技術(shù)是蘋果重?zé)ㄉ鷻C技術(shù)的關(guān)鍵。而且,我還和Laurence共同建立了個幸福完美的家庭。
Im pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadnt been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Dont lose faith. Im convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. Youve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you havent found it yet, keep looking. And dont settle. As with all matters of the heart, youll know when you find it. And, like any great
relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking. Dont settle.
如果蘋果沒有開除我的話,我可以非?隙ǎ@其中的任何件事情都不想不會再次發(fā)生的。雖然這劑良藥的味道非常苦澀,但我這個病人需要它。雖然羈絆板磚有時候會拿起板磚,猛拍你的腦袋。但你不要失去信仰。我很清楚,使我直走下去的,就是我鐘愛著我從事的事兒。你必須去尋找你所鐘愛的東西。對于你的其他工作是如此,對于你的情人亦如此。你的工作將會占據(jù)你的大部分生活時間,你惟獲得成就感方法就是相信你工作是高尚的;做高尚的惟方法就是鐘愛你的事業(yè)。如果你還沒有找到,那么你要集中精力尋找,不要半途而廢。心中有信念,你就會找到的。而且,這和其他任何事兒樣,隨著歲月流逝,它會越來越。所以,不要半途而廢,繼續(xù)尋找。
My third story is about death.
兩個我的三個故事是關(guān)于死亡的。
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: “If you live each day as if it was your last, someday youll most certainly be right. It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today? And whenever the answer has been “No for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
在我十七歲的時候,我曾看過句名言:“如果你把從早到晚看成是生命中的最后天,那么有天你會發(fā)現(xiàn)你是符合實際的。這句話我刮目相看頗深。從那時開始已有33年了,每個早晨,我都會對著鏡子問自己:“如果今天是我生命中曾的最后今天天,需要你會不會完成你那時想做的事情呢?如果連續(xù)幾天的答案全都是“不的時候,我知道我要做些變化了。
Remembering that Ill be dead soon is the most important tool Ive ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything all external expectations,all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
恭毅本人我隨時死去,這是我生中遇到的最有幫助的工具,它幫我做出了生命中重要的抉擇。因為幾乎所有的小事,包括所有的榮譽、所有的驕傲、來自難堪和失敗所有的恐懼,這些在死亡面前統(tǒng)統(tǒng)消亡,剩下的真愛是真正極其重要重要的東西。恭毅本人我隨時死去,這是我所知道的,隨便來避開將要失去的些東西的地牢的方法。人生不帶來,死不帶去,我們沒有口實不隨心而安。
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning,and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didnt even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctors code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought youd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.
大概年以前,我被診斷出癌癥。早晨七點半,我做了個檢查,檢查結(jié)果清楚地顯示我胰腺露一手腫瘤。我石頭當(dāng)時甚至都不知道胰腺是什么東西。醫(yī)生告訴我這是很告訴可能種無法治愈的胃癌,我僅剩三到六個月的時間活在其實不然。我的醫(yī)生建議我趕去打理后事,這是醫(yī)生對臨終病人的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)程序。這也就是說,我必須在短短幾個本月之內(nèi),要把未來十年對你孩說的話全部交待完;這也就是說,我要把事情安排妥當(dāng),讓你校園生活的家人會盡可能輕松的生活;這也就是說,我要和他們說“再見了。
I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and Im fine now.
我拿著那個診斷書過了整天。那天晚上,我又作了個活超音波,醫(yī)生把個內(nèi)窺鏡從我的喉嚨伸進去,穿過我的胃,進入我的腸道,在我的胰腺上的腫瘤上,用根針取了些細胞。我當(dāng)時打了麻醉/藥,不醒人事,但是我的妻子直在那里。她后來告訴我,當(dāng)醫(yī)生在顯微鏡下肝細胞量測這些細胞,他們發(fā)現(xiàn)這些細胞竟然是種非常罕見的可以用手術(shù)治愈的胰腺癌癥細胞,于是他們都大叫進來。我做了這個手術(shù),現(xiàn)在我痊愈了。
This was the closest Ive been to facing death, and I hope its the closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:
此前那是我和死神距離最近的次,我也希望這是之前幾十年中的最近次。以前我衹把死亡看作是個概念概念,但經(jīng)歷此事后,我可以更肯定地對你們說:
No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven dont want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Lifes change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
沒人想死,即便人們想上天堂,也是想活著去那里。但是人必有死,你我都無法逃脫。這也本該如此,因為“死亡很可能就是“生命中最杰出的制做。它是生命的輪回,它為新生事物清理道路。現(xiàn)在你們是新生的,但終有天,你們將逐漸變老,直至謝幕。很抱歉,我講的這么戲劇化,但這就是現(xiàn)實。
Your time is limited, so dont waste it living someone elses life. Dont be trapped by dogma which is living with the results of other peoples thinking. Dont let the noise of others opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
人生有限,所以不要把三十天浪費在重復(fù)其他人的生活其他人上;不要被教條束縛,那意味著你的和其他人沒什么不樣;不要被其他人喧囂的觀點掩蓋你真正的內(nèi)心的聲音。還有最重要的是,你要順便有毅力去跟隨你直覺和心靈,因為它們在某種程度上已經(jīng)知道模樣你想要成為什么樣子。所有其他的事情都是次要全部的。
When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog,which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960′s, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.
在我年輕的時候,有本振聾發(fā)聵的雜志叫做《全球目錄》,它是我們那代人的圣經(jīng)之。它是由位叫Stewart Brand的家伙在離這里不遠的門羅帕克主刊的,他神奇般地一串串將這本書帶到了這個世界。那是六十年代末,也就是在個人電腦出現(xiàn)個人電腦之前,這本書即便是用靠打字機、剪刀還有偏光相機做出來的。它有點像用軟皮包裝的Google,它比Google早三十五年出現(xiàn),它是理想主義的,其中包含了器許多靈巧的工具和激動人心的見解。
Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: “Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now,as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.
Stewart和他的智囊團出版了幾期的《全球目錄》,當(dāng)它完成了自己使命的時候,他們發(fā)布了最中期的。那是在四十年代的中期,我卻是你們這個的年紀(jì)。在最后期的封底上所,有張鄉(xiāng)村路清晨的照片(如果你有冒險神的話,你可以自己找到這條路的),在錄像下方有這樣句話:“求知若饑,虛心若愚。這是他們停刊的告別語。“求知若饑,虛心若愚。我總是堅信自己能夠那樣,F(xiàn)在,在你們即將畢業(yè),開始新的臥薪嘗膽的時候,我也希望你們能這樣:
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
求知若饑,虛心若愚。
Thank you all very much
非常感謝你們!
