为了最崇高的理想而牺牲并不等于心甘情愿、默不作声地接受他人持续的剥削和压榨，否则无异于是在支持暴政，允许自己变成奴隶。一味地忍受欺凌是不道德的，即使那个欺凌你的人就是你自己。

乔丹·彼得森

The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

预测未来的最好方法就是发明它。

阿迪·萨莫尔

真相是，我们都在寻找某种东西，但我们不知道它是什么。

The truth is that we are all searching for something, but we don't know what it is.

库切

Diplomacy is not about passively adapting to change, but actively shaping change.

外交并不是被动地适应变化，而是积极主动地塑造变化。

亨利·基辛格

The database is the most important piece of software in the enterprise, and the most important piece of software in the enterprise is the database. The database is the foundation of all applications. The database is the heart of the application, and the application is the heart of the business. The key to performance is to keep the hot data in memory. The future of databases is in the cloud. Data is the new oil. It's valuable, but if unrefined it cannot really be used. It has to be changed into gas, plastic, chemicals, etc to create a valuable entity that drives profitable activity; so must data be broken down, analyzed for it to have value.

数据库是企业中最重要的软件，而企业中最重要的软件是数据库。数据库是所有应用程序的基础。数据库是应用程序的心脏，而应用程序是业务的心脏。性能的关键是将热数据保存在内存中。数据库的未来在云端。数据是新的石油。它很有价值，但如果未经提炼，它就不能真正被使用。它必须被转化为气体、塑料、化学品等，以创造一个有价值的实体，推动有利可图的活动；所以数据必须被分解、分析，才能有价值。
