最不值得拥有的公司是一贯以非常低的回报率使用不断膨胀的资产。

"The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success."

约翰·斯坦贝克

If you’re not evolving, you’re falling behind.

如果你不进化，你就在落后。

Competitiveness is defined as the ability of companies to compete while maintaining or improving the average standard of living. If you are cutting wages to become more competitive, that's not really more competitive. It's raising the skill and the efficiency of those workers so that they can support and sustain that higher wage.

竞争力是指公司在保持或提高平均水平的同时进行竞争的能力。为了提高竞争力去削减工资，并不是真正的竞争力提升。它只是提高了这些工人的技能和效率，因为这样他们才能维持之前的工资水平。

迈克尔·波特

有时候当你创新时，你会犯错。最好迅速承认错误，然后继续改进你的其他创新。

Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.

约翰·里德

忍痛离开的人潇洒，赖死不走的人，是另一种执着。可是，终有一天，当你累了，你会发现，你执着的爱，早就面貌全非，已经不是当天的爱，对方也不是当天的那个人了。你执着的不过是回忆与幻影。赖死不走的痴心与执拗，到头来只会苦了自己。我们向往潇洒，只因为做不到潇洒。
