让我能够做出人生重大抉择的最主要办法是,记住生命随时都有可能结束。因为几乎所有的东西——所有对自身之外的希求、所有的尊严、所有对困窘和失败的恐惧——在死亡来临时都将不复存在,只剩下真正重要的东西。记住自己随时都会死去,这是我所知道的防止患得患失的最好方法。你已经一无所有了,还有什么理由不跟着自己的感觉走呢。
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've 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.
La plus cruelle de toutes les passions est l'amour.
Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle.
伟大的事情总是简单,最伟大的事情只有一个词:自游,正义,荣誉,责任,仁慈,希望。
Success comes when you focus on the long-term, not just the quarterly results.
追求科学不是一种奢侈,而是人类生存的必要条件。
