Pixar went on to create the worlds first puter animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world.

I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me – I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.在最初的幾個(gè)月里，我真是不知道該做些什么。在而立之年，我生命的全部支柱離自己遠(yuǎn)去, 這真是毀滅性的打擊。所以在三十歲的時(shí)候, 我被炒了。但是后來我們對(duì)未來的看法發(fā)生了分歧, 最終我們吵了起來。在那一年, 我被炒了魷魚。在公司成立的第九年,我們剛剛發(fā)布了最好的產(chǎn)品,那就是Macintosh。Woz和我在二十歲的時(shí)候就在父母的車庫里面開創(chuàng)了蘋果公司。My second story is about love and loss.我的第二個(gè)故事是關(guān)于愛和損失的。你必須要相信某些東西：你的勇氣、目的、生命、因緣。 you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.再次說明的是,你在向前展望的時(shí)候不可能將這些片斷串連起來；你只能在回顧的時(shí)候?qū)Ⅻc(diǎn)點(diǎn)滴滴串連起來。Again, you can39。那么現(xiàn)在個(gè)人電腦就不會(huì)有現(xiàn)在這么美妙的字型了。那是第一臺(tái)使用了漂亮的印刷字體的電腦。但是十年之后,當(dāng)我們?cè)谠O(shè)計(jì)第一臺(tái)Macintosh電腦的時(shí)候,就不是那樣了。那是一種科學(xué)永遠(yuǎn)不能捕捉到的、美麗的、真實(shí)的藝術(shù)精妙, 我發(fā)現(xiàn)那實(shí)在是太美妙了。因?yàn)槲彝藢W(xué)了, 沒有受到正規(guī)的訓(xùn)練, 所以我決定去參加這個(gè)課程，去學(xué)學(xué)怎樣寫出漂亮的美術(shù)字。t capture, and I found it fascinating.Reed大學(xué)在那時(shí)提供也許是全美最好的美術(shù)字課程。讓我給你們舉一個(gè)例子吧：Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country.
