有人问巴菲特预计什么时后要退休，他回答
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."
自然界中有未知的力量；当我们完全无保留地把自己交给她时，她就会把这些力量借给我们；她向我们展示这些形式，我们的眼睛看不到，我们的智力不理解或怀疑。
I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people， and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park， listened carefully to me， and finally said， "That sounds like a really good idea， but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job." That logic made some sense to me， and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light， it really was a difficult choice， but ultimately， I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all. After much consideration， I took the less safe path to follow my passion， and I'm proud of that choice.
When you fail, you learn. When you succeed, you learn even more.
