The poverty of our century is unlike that of any other. It is not, as poverty was before, the result of natural scarcity, but of a set of priorities imposed upon the rest of the world by the rich.

我们这个世纪的贫困与以往不同。它不像以前的贫困那样是自然稀缺的结果，而是富人强加给世界其他地区的一系列优先事项的结果。

约翰·伯格

Invention is the mother of necessity.

发明是需求之母。

赛勒斯·麦考密克

Safety isn't a priority—it's a value. You can't prioritize something that should never be compromised.

安全不是优先事项，而是一种价值观。你无法优先考虑永远不应妥协的事情。

史蒂文·利尔

理想对我来说，具有一种非凡的魅力。我的理想……总是充满着生活和泥土气息。我从来都不去空想那些不可能实现的事情。

奥斯特洛夫斯基

当我发现自己爱上你的时候，我已经无法自拔。

简·奥斯汀

人生的一切都是稍纵即逝。黑暗和光明交替出现，使你目眩的光明刚刚消失，黑暗便接踵而至。

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。

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.
