我们每个人都是一面破碎的镜子，反射出生活的片段。 - 每日文摘

If you are ever in trouble, don’t try to be brave, just run away.

若你遇上麻烦，不要逞强，你就跑，远远跑开。

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.

我当时在纽约一家金融公司工作，同事是一群非常聪明的人，我的老板也很有智慧，我很羡慕他。我告诉我的老板我想开办一家在网上卖书的公司。他带我在中央公园漫步良久，认真地听我讲完，最后说："听起来真是一个很好的主意，但是对那些目前没有谋到一份好工作的人来说，这个主意会更好。"这一逻辑对我而言颇有道理，他说服我在最终作出决定之前再考虑48小时。那样想来，这个决定确实很艰难，但是最终，我决定拼一次。我认为自己不会为尝试过后的失败而遗憾，倒是有所决定但完全不付诸行动会一直煎熬着我。在深思熟虑之后，我选择了那条不安全的道路，去追随我内心的热情。我为那个决定感到骄傲。

确实，所有心事重重的人，他们的处境都很悲惨，但最悲惨的是那些甚至不为自己的事情而努力的人，他们必须根据别人的睡眠来调节自己的睡眠，根据别人的步调来调节自己的步伐，在最自由的事物中服从他人的命令，爱与恨。

没有地图。我们一路走一路被辜负，一路点燃希望一路寻找答案。

撒谎是人之本性，在大多数时间里我们甚至都不能对自己诚实。

Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence and making sure that impact lasts in your absence.

领导力在于让他人因为你的存在而变得更好，并确保这种影响在你离开后依然持续。

"I think that mathematicians are much more like artists than they are like scientists."

我认为数学家更像艺术家，而不是科学家。

小孩可能会花太多时间在书本上，而不参加其他课外活动。这些孩子常常会回避其他问题，仅仅因为他们受到膨胀的雄心的影响，只想在学校里面学习名列前茅。

阿德勒

欢迎啊，生活！我要第一百万次去迎接经验的现实，在我灵魂的熔炉中锻造出我那尚未被创造的种族良知。

Welcome, O life! I go to encounter for the millionth time the reality of experience and to forge in the smithy of my soul the uncreated conscience of my race.

詹姆斯·乔伊斯

企业家应该把金钱看的淡一些，把社会责任看的重一些。

真正的知识源自内心的洞察。

True knowledge comes from inner insight.

毕达哥拉斯

总是去信任他人身上的闪光点，因为看到他人闪光点且信任的人，也常收获他人对你的好。偶尔被骗只是伴随的小代价。

Getting cheated occasionally is the small price for trusting the best of everyone， because when you trust the best in others， they generally treat you best.
