Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence and making sure that impact lasts in your absence.
领导力在于让他人因你的存在而变得更好,并确保这种影响在你离开后依然持续。
The life of man is of no greater importance to the universe than that of an oyster.

Before you are old, attend as many funerals as you can bear, and listen. Nobody talks about the departed’s achievements. The only thing people will remember is what kind of person you were while you were achieving.
Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.
