勿以己之长而盖人；勿以己之善而形人；勿以己之多能而困人。收敛才智，若无若虚。
译文：别人不如自己的地方，不可以拿出来，在他面前卖弄；别人做不了的善事，不能因自己做过而拿出来炫耀；别人能力比不上我，不能拿来难为别人、压制别人；即使自己很有才华，也要懂得收敛起来，不要招摇，做到看起来很平凡。

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.
