You don’t have to be perfect. Just be yourself.

It's probably as unlikely that you would nowadays become as rich and famous as Bill Gates, as it was unlikely in the17th century that you would accede to the ranks of the French aristocracy. But the point is, it doesn't feel that way. It's made to feel, by magazines and other media outlets, that if you've got energy, a few bright ideas about technology, a garage -- you, too, could start a major thing.

穿着粗布衣裳，吃着简单饭菜，这样的快乐哪里需要刻意寻求？

休息隶属于工作，正如眼睑隶属于眼睛。

A novel is a mirror walking along a main road.
