我们不是从祖先那里继承了海洋；而是从子孙那里借来的。

人类就像江河一样：木杖刚把波浪划开，波浪又立刻流到一起去了。

世界充满了来来往往的迹象和奇迹，如果你幸运的话，你可能会抓住其中一个的尾巴。

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.

激情的持续时间与女人最初的抗拒成正比。
