"Innovation is the ability to see change as an opportunity - not a threat."

译文：一心想求取科举功名的人，不一定能体会到琴棋书画的乐趣；追求生命境界的人，不能没有经世济民的才能。赏析：读书或做事，我们不能总是带着功利性极强的目的去。目的越强，中间的乐趣无法体会，其结果往往事与愿违。如果我们抱着一颗平常心，往往会有意想不到的收获。那些道德品质高尚的人大多博学有才，他们用自身的言行去改变周围的人，去改变这个社会。

增长永远不应以质量或道德为代价。

事实是，如果你让我在赢得环法自行车赛和癌症之间做出选择，我会选择癌症。听起来很奇怪，我宁愿拥有癌症幸存者的头衔，也不愿成为环法冠军，因为它对我作为一个人、一个男人、一个丈夫、一个儿子和一个父亲的影响。

I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that Web usage was growing at 2，300 percent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast， and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles -- something that simply couldn't exist in the physical world -- was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old， and I'd been married for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most startups don't， and I wasn't sure what would happen after that. MacKenzie (also a Princeton grad and sitting here in the second row) told me I should go for it. As a young boy， I'd been a garage inventor. I'd invented an automatic gate closer out of cement-filled tires， a solar cooker that didn't work very well out of an umbrella and tinfoil， baking-pan alarms to entrap my siblings. I'd always wanted to be an inventor， and she wanted me to follow my passion.

Any human anywhere will blossom in a hundred unexpected talents and capacities simply by being given the opportunity to do so.
