The decline of trust in institutions is one of the most serious problems facing modern democracies.

The future competition is about data, and even more about data processing capabilities.

I nother words, your position in life comes to seem not accidental, but merited and deserved. And that makes failure seem much more crushing.

唯一真正的错误是我们从中什么也没学到的错误。

Mental processes are tools for living, and their worth is in their use.

你必须努力才能到达顶峰，但你必须更加努力才能留在那里。
