外交是一门没有永久朋友，只有永久利益的学科。 - 每日文摘

如果不是处于丰田汽车公司濒临倒闭的困境之中，或者说如果没有当时日本经济不景气的社会背景，根本不可能产生所谓的丰田生产方式，更不可能在全球生产管理界独树一帜。

躯体总是以惹人厌烦告终。除思想以外，没有什么优美和有意思的东西留下来，因为思想就是生命。

萧伯纳

The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes.

世界上充满了显而易见的事物，但没有人注意到它们。

理查德·拉索

一个人应养成信赖自我的习惯，即使在最危急的时候，也要相信自我的勇敢与毅力。

拿破仑

The database is the most important piece of software in the enterprise, and the most important piece of software in the enterprise is the database. The database is the foundation of all applications. The database is the heart of the application, and the application is the heart of the business. The key to performance is to keep the hot data in memory. The future of databases is in the cloud. Data is the new oil. It's valuable, but if unrefined it cannot really be used. It has to be changed into gas, plastic, chemicals, etc to create a valuable entity that drives profitable activity; so must data be broken down, analyzed for it to have value. The most important thing in the programming language is the name. A language will not succeed without a good name. I have recently invented a very good name and now I am looking for a suitable language. The best way to predict the future is to invent it. The most important thing in a database is the data model. If you get the data model right, everything else will follow. The database is the most important piece of software in the enterprise, and the most important piece of software in the enterprise is the database. The database is the foundation of all applications. The database is the heart of the application, and the application is the heart of the business.

数据库是企业中最重要的软件，而企业中最重要的软件是数据库。数据库是所有应用程序的基础。数据库是应用程序的心脏，而应用程序是业务的心脏。性能的关键是将热数据保存在内存中。数据库的未来在云端。数据是新的石油。它很有价值，但如果未经提炼，它就不能真正被使用。它必须被转化为气体、塑料、化学品等，以创造一个有价值的实体，推动有利可图的活动；所以数据必须被分解、分析，才能有价值。编程语言中最重要的东西是名字。没有好名字的语言不会成功。我最近发明了一个非常好的名字，现在我正在寻找一种合适的语言。预测未来的最好方法就是发明它。数据库中最重要的东西是数据模型。如果你把数据模型做对了，其他一切都会随之而来。数据库是企业中最重要的软件，而企业中最重要的软件是数据库。数据库是所有应用程序的基础。数据库是应用程序的心脏，而应用程序是业务的心脏。
