我们钦佩的人的品质,如善良、慷慨、开放、诚实、理解和同情,在我们的系统中是失败的伴随物。而我们憎恶的那些特质,如精明、贪婪、占有欲、卑鄙、自我中心和自私,却是成功的特质。
The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success.
If you’re not failing occasionally, you’re not pushing hard enough.
一个人,如果不是他们留下的痕迹,又是什么呢?
译文:如果志向不坚毅,思想境界不开阔,沉溺于世俗私情,碌碌无为,永远混杂在平庸的人群之后,就会难免沦落到下流社会,成为没有教养,没有出息的人。
The future of medicine lies in the integration of genomics, proteomics, and systems biology.
