要文章写得像个样儿，应该在拿起笔之前多做准备功夫。准备功夫不仅是写作方面的纯技术的准备，急躁是不成的，秘诀是没有的。实际生活充实了，种种习惯养成了，写文章就会像活水那样自然的流淌了。

我因告诉创始人只需制作一些了不起的东西，不必过多担心赚钱而受到相当多的批评。然而，所有经验证据都指向这个方向：几乎所有制作受欢迎产品的初创公司都成功地从中赚到了钱。而且收购者私下告诉我，他们购买初创公司并不是为了它们的收入，而是为了它们的战略价值。这意味着，因为他们制作了人们想要的东西。收购者知道这个规则对他们也适用：如果用户喜欢你，你总能从中以某种方式赚钱；而如果他们不喜欢，世界上最聪明的商业模式也救不了你。

The wall is the oldest and most revolutionary architectural element.

墙是最古老也是最革命的建筑元素。

忧勤是美德，太苦则无以适性怡情；淡泊是高风，太枯则无以济人利物。

我努力寻找光明，但每一次都被无情的黑暗吞没。

That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road, and when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd just run across Greenbow County. Now, I figured since I'd run this far, maybe I'd just run across the great state of Alabama. And that's what I did. I ran clear across Alabama. No particular reason. I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean. And when I got there, I figured since I'd gone this far, might as well turn around, just keep on going. And when I got to another ocean, I figured since I'd gone this far... I might as well just turn back and keep right on going. When I got tired, I slept. When I got hungry, I ate. When I had to go... you know... I went.

那一天，不知什么原因，我决定出去跑一趟，所以我跑到路的尽头。当我到达那里，我想也许我能跑到城边；而当我到达那里，我想也许我能跑遍绿茵县；这时我想既然我跑了那么远，也许我可以跑遍亚拉巴马州。我就这么做了。我横越整个亚拉巴马，不知什么原因，我继续跑，我一直跑到大海；当我到达那里，我想既然我跑了那么远，也许不如掉头继续跑，然后当我跑到另一个大海；我想既然我跑了那么远，我也许不如掉头，继续跑下去。当我累了，我就睡觉；当我饿了，我就吃饭；当我想去…你知道…我就去。
