批评不但不会改变事实，反而会招致愤恨，因为我们都害怕受人指责。

什么样的创始人会赢？条条大道通罗马，最关键还是要看学习速度，这是致胜的核心一点。

"The key to success in science is collaboration and sharing knowledge."

科学成功的关键在于合作和分享知识。

The concept of computational complexity is not just about how fast we can compute, but also about understanding the limits of what can be computed.

计算复杂性的概念不仅仅是我们能计算多快，还包括理解什么是可以计算的极限。

莱昂尼德·莱文

君子之心不胜其小，而器量涵盖一世；小人之心不胜其大，而志意拘守一隅。

君子无所欲念，但气量宏大涵盖一切。而小人需求多，而志气狭隘。

金兰生

车轮和引擎的噪音，她的声音有点奇怪，好像是属于另外一个人的，属于那个十几岁的那不勒斯姑娘，那个探头窗外，沿着城镇的街巷看往列车或巷口，想着还没有出现的远方恋人的姑娘。

I'm drawn to a lovely quote by St. Augustine in "The City of God," where he says, "It's a sin to judge any man by his post." In modern English that would mean it's a sinto come to any view of who you should talk to, dependent on their business card. It's not the post that should count. According to St. Augustine, only God can really put everybody in their place; he's going to do that on the Day of Judgment, with angels and trumpets, and the skies will open. Insane idea, if you're a secularist person, like me. But something very valuable in that idea, nevertheless.

我很喜欢圣奥古斯丁在“上帝之城”里的一句话，他说“以社会地位评价人是一种罪”。用现在的口吻说，看一个人的名片来决定你是否要和他交谈是罪。对圣奥古斯丁来说，人的价值不在他的社会地位，只有神可以决定一个人的价值，他将在天使围绕、小号奏鸣，天空破开的世界末日给于最后审判，如果你是像我一样的世俗论者，这想法太疯狂了，但这想法有它的价值。

阿兰·德波顿

纵观人类历史，有能力行动者却袖手旁观；知情者却无动于衷；正义之声在最迫切需要时保持沉默；于是邪恶方能伺机横行。

Pros are just amateurs who know how to gracefully recover from their mistakes.

专业人士其实就是能更优雅的从错误从回到正常状态的业余人士。

A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.

一个人的工作不过是通过艺术的迂回，缓慢地重新发现两三个伟大而简单的形象，在这些形象面前，他的心第一次敞开。

约翰·马克斯韦尔·库切

男人害怕女人嘲笑他们，女人害怕男人杀害她们。

Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them.
