【正文】 ed Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic was in the late 196039。我 在里得大學(xué)讀了六個月就退學(xué)了，但是在十八個月之后我真正退學(xué)之前，我還常去學(xué)校。這 是我生命的開端。我沒有宿舍可住，睡在朋友房間的地上。在這門課上，我學(xué)會了“serif”和“sansserif”兩種字體、學(xué)會了怎樣在不同的字母組合中改變字間距、學(xué)會了怎樣寫出好的字來。要不是退了學(xué)，我決不會碰巧選了這門書法課，個人電腦也可能不會有現(xiàn)在這些漂亮的版式了。很早就發(fā)現(xiàn)自己喜歡做的事情。一開始的幾個月我真的不知道該干什么。當(dāng) 時我沒有看出來，但事實證明“被蘋果開除”是發(fā)生在我身上最好的事。這個藥的味道太糟了，但是我想病人需要它。就像任何真誠的關(guān)系，隨著時間的 流逝，只會越來越緊密。提醒自己就要死亡是我知道的最好的方法，用來避開擔(dān)心失去某些東西的陷阱。就是意味著把要對你小孩說十年的話在幾個月內(nèi)說 完；意味著把所有東西搞定，盡量讓你的家庭活得輕松一點；意味著你要說“永別”了。也應(yīng)該如此，因為死亡很可能是生 命最好的發(fā)明。你的直覺和內(nèi) 心知道你想要變成什么樣子。斯糾華特和他的小組出版了幾期“完整地球目錄”，在完成使命之前，他們出版了最后一 期。非常感謝。t interest me and begin dropping in on the ones that

么一門課，Macintosh 計算機(jī)絕不會有那么多種印刷字體或間距安排合理的字號。校園中每一張海報，抽屜上的每一張標(biāo)簽，都是漂亮的手寫體。從我退學(xué)的那一刻起，我可以停止一切不感興趣的必修課，開始旁聽那些有意思得多的課。她拒絕在領(lǐng)養(yǎng)書上簽字。不是長篇大論，只是三個故事而已。s 39。所以繼續(xù)找，直到你找到它，不要停下來！My third

Jobs于2005年6月12號在斯坦福大學(xué)的畢業(yè)典禮上面的演講稿。為何我要選擇退學(xué)呢？這還得從我出生之前說起。十七年后，我上大學(xué)了，但是我很無知地選了一所差不多和斯坦福一樣貴的學(xué)校，幾乎花掉我那藍(lán)領(lǐng)階層養(yǎng)父母一生的積蓄。為了吃飯，我收集五分一個的舊可樂瓶，每個星期天晚上步行七英里到哈爾克里什納廟里改善一下一周的伙食。這是一種科學(xué)無法捕捉的微妙，楚楚動人、充滿歷史底蘊(yùn)和藝術(shù)性，我覺得自己被完全吸引了。當(dāng)
