"The face of Russia is reflected in the eyes of its people."
Every role I take on is a new challenge and a new opportunity to learn.
我现在生活的全部信念在于,孤独远非一种罕见而奇特的现象,它不仅仅是我和少数其他孤独者的特质,而是人类存在的核心和不可避免的事实。
I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and finally said, "That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job." That logic made some sense to me, and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but ultimately, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all. After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice.
我早就得到了结果,但还不知道如何得到它们。
I don't think about failure. I think about the next step.
