最伟大的定理往往来自于对显而易见之事的质疑。
"Every experiment, no matter how small, is a step towards a greater understanding."
在我们认识到我们过去所做的很多事情是非常愚蠢的之前,我们不会变得更聪明。
Every setback is a setup for a comeback.
"We need to think of software not just as code, but as a mathematical object that can be analyzed and verified."
我们想要的不是物质,而是背后的情感反馈,这赋予奢侈品一个崭新的意义。下次你看到那些开着法拉利跑车的人,你不要想“这个人很贪婪”,而是“这是一个无比脆弱、急需爱的人”,也就是说,同情他们,不要鄙视他们。
It's the rewards we want. It's a new way of looking at luxury goods. The next time you see somebody driving a Ferrari, don't think, "This is somebody who's greedy." Think, "This is somebody who is incredibly vulnerable and in need of love." Feel sympathy, rather than contempt.
