美来自于事物的使用方式,而不仅仅是它们的外观
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.
Freedom can only be given to one who loves it, and the rest is for slaves.
The strength of a company lies in its ability to adapt and evolve in the face of challenges.
