【正文】 在這個大學(xué)里面的每個海報(bào), 每個抽屜的標(biāo)簽上面全都是漂亮的美術(shù)字。我失去了我的宿舍,所以我只能在朋友房間的地板上面睡覺,我去撿5美分的可樂瓶子，僅僅為了填飽肚子, 在星期天的晚上,我需要走七英里的路程，穿過這個城市到Hare Krishna寺廟（注：位于紐約Brooklyn下城）,只是為了能吃上飯——這個星期唯一一頓好一點(diǎn)的飯。不能否認(rèn),我當(dāng)時確實(shí)非常的害怕, 但是現(xiàn)在回頭看看,那的確是我這一生中最棒的一個決定。在六個月后, 我已經(jīng)看不到其中的價值所在。她拒絕簽這個收養(yǎng)合同。她決定讓別人收養(yǎng)我, 她十分想讓我被大學(xué)畢業(yè)生收養(yǎng)。第一個故事是關(guān)于如何把生命中的點(diǎn)點(diǎn)滴滴串連起來。我從來沒有從大學(xué)中畢業(yè)。ve got to find what you love,39?！扒笾麴嚕撔娜粲?。stewart and his team put out several issues of the whole earth catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final was the mid1970s, and i was your the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so it were the words: “stay foolish.” it was their farewell message as they signed i have always wished that for now, as you graduate to begin anew, i wish that for 《全球目錄》，當(dāng)它完成了自己使命的時候，他們發(fā)布了最后一期的。when i was young, there was an amazing publication called the whole earth catalog, which was one of the bibles of my was created by a fellow named stewart brand not far from here in menlo park, and he brought it to life with his poetic was in the late 1960′s, before personal puters and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid was sort of like google in paperback form, 35 years before google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great ，有一本振聾發(fā)聵的雜志叫做《全球目錄》，它是我們那一代人的圣經(jīng)之一。不要被教條束縛，那意味著你的思維和其他人沒什么不一樣。它是生命的輪回，它為新生事物清理道路。this was the closest i’ve been to facing death, and i hope its the closest i get for a few more lived through it, i can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:那是我和死神距離最近的一次，我也希望這是以后幾十年中的最近一次。那天晚上，我又作了一個活切片檢查，醫(yī)生把一個內(nèi)窺鏡從我的喉嚨伸進(jìn)去，穿過我的胃，進(jìn)入我的腸道，在我的胰腺上的腫瘤上，用一根針取了一些細(xì)胞。這也就是說，我必須在短短幾個月之內(nèi)，要把未來十年對你小孩說的話全部交待完。早晨七點(diǎn)半，我做了一個檢查，檢查結(jié)果清楚地顯示我胰腺有一個腫瘤。因?yàn)閹缀跛械氖虑?，包括所有的榮譽(yù)、所有的驕傲、來自難堪和失敗所有的恐懼，這些在死亡面前統(tǒng)統(tǒng)消亡，剩下的愛是真正重要的東西。when i was 17, i read a quote that went something like: “if you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.” it made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, i have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: “if today were the last day of my life, would i want to do what i am about to do today?” and whenever the answer has been “no” for too many days in a row, i know i need to change ，我曾看過一句名言：“如果你把每一天看成是生命中的最后一天，那么有一天你會發(fā)現(xiàn)你是正確的。心中有信念，你就會找到的。對于你的工作是如此，對于你的愛人亦如此。雖然命運(yùn)有時候會拿起板磚，猛拍你的腦袋。我們在next研發(fā)的技術(shù)是蘋果重?zé)ㄉ鷻C(jī)的關(guān)鍵。它(掃地出門)把我釋放出來，讓我進(jìn)入了我生命中最有創(chuàng)造力的一個階段。雖然我被驅(qū)逐了，但是我仍然鐘愛我所做的事情。我把事情搞砸了，我和(創(chuàng)辦hp的)david packard和(創(chuàng)辦intel的)bob noyce見面，并試圖向他們道歉。公開地把我掃地出門了。你怎么可能被你自己創(chuàng)立的公司炒了魷魚呢? 在蘋果快速成長的時候，我們雇用了一個很有天分的家伙和我一起管理這個公司，在最初的幾年風(fēng)調(diào)雨順。我們努力工作，十年之后，蘋果從只有兩個的窮小子的車庫公司，發(fā)展到了員工超過四千名、市值超過二十億的大公司。這個方法從未讓我失望過，它讓我與眾不同。you can only connect them looking you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, approach has never let me down, and it would made all the ，你不可能把這些點(diǎn)點(diǎn)滴滴提前串連起來。如果我沒有退學(xué)，我不會沉迷于書法課程，個人電腦很可能就不會這么多字體。我把當(dāng)時我學(xué)的那些東西全都融入到mac。我學(xué)到了san serif 和serif字體，我學(xué)會了怎么樣在不同的字母組合之中變化間距，還有怎么樣做最好的版式。在好奇和直覺的引導(dǎo)下，我跌跌撞撞地遇到很多東西，這些后來被證明是無價瑰寶。沒了宿舍，所以我要到朋友家睡地板。所以，我決定退學(xué)，并且我相信車到山前必有路。但我天真地選擇了一個幾乎和斯坦福大學(xué)一樣貴的學(xué)校，我父母還處于工薪階層，為了交學(xué)費(fèi)，他們幾乎耗光所有積蓄。所以，我的養(yǎng)父養(yǎng)母(他們當(dāng)時還在候選名單上)突然在半夜接到了一個電話：“我們有一個意外降生的男嬰，你們想收養(yǎng)他嗎?”他們回答說： “當(dāng)然!” 但是我親生母親隨后發(fā)現(xiàn)，我的養(yǎng)母從未上過大學(xué)，我的養(yǎng)父高中沒畢業(yè)。我的親生母親是一名年輕未婚的大學(xué)畢業(yè)生。the first story is about connecting the 。第二篇：喬布斯斯坦福大學(xué)畢業(yè)典禮演講稿喬布斯斯坦福大學(xué)畢業(yè)典禮演講稿i am honored to be with you today for your mencement from one of the finest universities in the be told, i never graduated from this is the closest i’ve ever gotten to a college i want to tell you three stories from my ’s big three ，我很榮幸能和你們一起參加畢業(yè)典禮，斯坦福大學(xué)是世界上最好的大學(xué)之一，喬布斯斯坦福大學(xué)畢業(yè)典禮演講稿。我常以此勉勵自己。那是七十年代中期，我和你們差不多大。那是六十年代后期，個人電腦出現(xiàn)之前，所以這份雜志全是用打字機(jī)、剪刀和偏光鏡制作的。When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalogue, which was one of the bibles of my was created by a fellow named Stuart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic was in the late 1960s, before personal puters and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and Polaroid was sort of like Google in paperback form 35 years before Google came was idealistic, overflowing with neat tools and great and his team put out several issues of the The Whole Earth Catalogue, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final was the mid1970s and I was your the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so were the words, “Stay hungry, stay foolish.” It was their farewell message as they signed off.“Stay hungry, stay foolish.” And I have always wished that for myself, and now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for hungry, stay ，有一份叫做《完整地球目錄》的好雜志，是我們這一代人的圣經(jīng)之一。不要被教條束縛，那意味著會和別人思考的結(jié)果一塊兒生活。現(xiàn)在，你們就是“新”。這次死里逃生讓我比以往只知道死亡是一個有用而純粹書面概念的時候更確信地告訴你們，沒有人愿意死，即使那些想上天堂的人們也不愿意通過死亡來達(dá)到他們的目的。t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people39。it clears out the old to make way for the now, the new is someday, not too long from now, you will gradually bee the old and be cleared to be so dramatic, but it39。s the closest I get for a few more lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual one wants to die, even people who want to go to Heaven don39。我當(dāng)時是被麻醉的，但是我的妻子告訴我，那些醫(yī)生在顯微鏡下看到細(xì)胞的時候開始尖叫，因?yàn)榘l(fā)現(xiàn)這竟然是一種非常罕見的可用手術(shù)治愈的胰腺癌癥。在醫(yī)生的辭典中，這就是“準(zhǔn)備死亡”的意思。我早上七點(diǎn)半作了掃描，清楚地顯示在我的胰腺有一個腫瘤。About a year ago, I was diagnosed with had a scan at 7:30 in the morning and it clearly showed a tumor on my didn39。提醒自己就要死了是我遇見的最大的幫助，幫我作了生命中的大決定。ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life, because almost everythingall external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failurethese things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly that you are going to die is the best way I know to avo
