Not he who has much is rich, but he who gives much.
归根到底,成功就是抓住了寥寥可数的机遇。要始终保持开放的思维,冷静观察,高度警觉,随时准备抓住机会。要统筹合适的人力和其他资源,然后全力以赴。如果你没有准备好拼尽全力,要么是因为这个机会没有你想象的那么有吸引力,要么是因为你不是把握这一机遇的合适人选。
批判教育学不是教学生思考什么,而是教他们如何批判性地思考周围的世界。

The key to global competitiveness is local innovation.
I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and finally said, "That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job." That logic made some sense to me, and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but ultimately, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all. After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice.
