一个人如果失去了前进的目标，那他就失去了生活的意义。 - 每日文摘

神圣而永恒的是精神。我们只是它的赋形和工具，我们的路由它带领；我们最内心的热望是：成为它，浴于它的光。

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. The most important thing in the programming language is the name. A language will not succeed without a good name. I have recently invented a very good name and now I am looking for a suitable language. The best way to predict the future is to invent it. The most important thing in a database is the data model. If you get the data model right, everything else will follow.

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。编程语言中最重要的东西是名字。没有好名字的语言不会成功。我最近发明了一个非常好的名字，现在我正在寻找一种合适的语言。预测未来的最好方法就是发明它。数据库中最重要的东西是数据模型。如果你把数据模型做对了，其他一切都会随之而来。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。

这个叫人心里甜滋滋的信念，使阿里萨难舍难弃，在登峰造极的快感中，他觉得心里开了个窍儿。这使他自己也无法相信，甚至还拒绝承认，那就是：费尔米纳的虚幻的爱情，可以用世俗的性爱来取代。

如果你在家里找东西，最后找到了，用完之后，不要把它放回你最终找到它的地方。把它放回你最先去找的地方。

If you are looking for something in your house， and you finally find it， when you’re done with it， don’t put it back where you found it. Put it back where you first looked for it.
