想到了就去做|水果帮教主乔布斯在斯坦福大学的演讲
翻译by长沙杨飞
2011年10月5日，IT界发生了一件大事，苹果公司创始人兼董事长史蒂夫·乔布斯(Steve
Jobs)去世了，享年56岁。
乔布斯是个争议人物，虽然他发明了个人电脑，但有人说那是偷别人的点子。还有人说他人品不好，连自己的（私生）女儿都不认。我觉得这是吃饱了撑的。
关注一个厨师，我从来不关心他怎么做爱，我只关心他怎么做菜。苹果从一间车库里的双人皮包公司发展成全球市值最高的跨国公司，成就无可争议，颇富传奇色彩。本人现转发乔布斯2005年6月12日在斯坦福大学毕业典礼上的讲话全文，以表悼念。
作为一个电影迷，特别是动画片迷，我也借此表达对乔布斯的敬意，因为他是1995年世界第一部全数码电影《玩具总动员》的制片人之一。这部电影由乔布斯的Pixar公司和迪斯尼公司联合制作。所谓纯数码电影就是全电脑制作的（动画），这是电影界的一次革命，用不着胶片了！理论上来说，随着电脑运算能力的提高，画面不断精细完美，电脑动画也许有一天能完全替代胶卷和摄影机（以及真人演员！）。到那时就只剩小说原创者不可替代了。什么？总有一天连小说都可以机器创作？？？你你这不是要砸我的饭碗吗？Don't
tell me that, I can not see, and do not know...
我们平时看的网络电影、DVD或蓝光Blue
Ray影碟、高清播放机，绝大多数都是胶片转数码，因为传统电影都是先用胶卷拍，冲洗，然后在电影院播出，片子下线之后再扫描底片得到数码影像，压制为DVD（或蓝光Blue
Ray），再偷偷上传到网络上。
话说回来，1995年《玩具总动员》在电影院还是以胶片播出的，那时候的电影院只有胶片放映机，所以还得把先数码转胶片。这一转就会损失细节。胶片扫描得再好也会丢失细节，玩过底片扫描仪并对比过幻灯放映的大侠都知道。我记得1999年的时候我从美国亚马逊跨洋邮购了正版的DVD影碟《A
Bug's Life》，过海关让我头大无比，还好终于弄了回来。这部电影又名《虫虫特工队》、《虫虫危机》，是Pixar的第二部纯数码电影，也是我最喜欢的DVD之一，当时也是很多家庭影院音响店的示范碟之一，因为它是直接数码压制的（数码转数码），清晰度前无古人，掉落一地眼镜啊。
《虫虫特工队》讲述了一只特立独行的蚂蚁的故事，它发明了谷物收割机，却因此闯了祸并被蚁群开除，然而它并不放弃，找来了帮手，得以重回蚁群，战胜蝗虫挽救了蚁群，并抱得美人归（和蚁后成婚）。我觉得这像是Pixar向乔布斯表示敬意的一部影片，这只蚂蚁和乔布斯的经历何其相似。乔布斯创立了苹果公司，又被苹果开除，然而他并不放弃，成立了新公司，借以重回苹果，并不断推出新产品挽救了苹果，最后也抱得美人归。
乔布斯曾受邀给斯坦福大学的学生上课，课堂上认识了商学院的MBA学生Laurene。当晚原本要出席一个商业论坛的乔布斯，突然改主意和Laurene约会。后来他们就结了婚。
一个人怎么会被自己所创立的公司开除？乔布斯的故事告诉我们，公司上市不完全是好事，因为筹集资金的同时就失去了对公司的部分控制权。
股份公司是股东说了算。很多家族企业不到万不得已不上市，或只让子公司上市，就是想保留对公司的控制权。有些上市公司在现金流缓过气来之后更是花钱回购股票甚至主动退市，动机也大多如此。
现在我本人用的是一台最简单的黑白屏诺基亚手机，新机才一百多元，它是我偶然在路上捡到的，招领一周没人要，我只好自己用了。这台诺基亚的好处是：1，充电一次用一周以上；2，只能打电话发短信，省得玩手机浪费时间。我并不是果粉，虽然我也用过iPhone、iPad和Mac
Book，也使用过Android的平板和手机，我更倾向于开放的Andriod安卓系统，不太喜欢相对较封闭的苹果系统。但我非常敬佩乔布斯敢想敢干的精神，他大学只读了半年就退学是表现之一。
我被学生们评为最宽松的管理学老师，因为我上课从来不点名，我不反对逃课。如果你不来上课，考试还能做出推翻教科书观点的创新答案（但要自圆其说，不能有逻辑错误），还会得高分。我有时认为一个人在18岁之后就不该再上大学（文科类尤其如此），少数需要手把手教的比如临床外科例外。所以我也鼓励有创新精神的同学们退学，去做自己真正喜欢的事，向乔布斯学习。我曾在课堂上承诺如果你父母不同意你退学，而我又对你的项目感兴趣的话，我可以在你退学后短时间负担食物供应，甚至参加你的项目。
乔布斯的话让我很受感触：你必须去寻找你的真爱，对事业和爱情都是如此。。。唯一能让你真正满意的就是去从事一份自己热爱的工作。。。时刻提醒自己面对死亡。。所有外界的期望、所有的骄傲、所有对失败难堪的恐惧
- 在死亡面前都会彻底消散。。。你已经赤裸裸了，没有理由不跟随自己的心。虽然我鼓动同学们冲出围城，但我却继续把自己围在高校里。不是我甘愿混吃等死，而是我至今还不确信自己到底热爱什么。人人生而平等在当今就是个笑话，但人人死而平等在任何时代都是千真万确的。随着年纪越来越大，也许我将很快做出一个选择，去追寻自己真正的幸福。
这篇演讲稿翻译最大的难处在于“stay hungry, stay
foolish"这句。乔帮主应该是世界上最聪明吃得最饱的人之一，他为啥要提倡保持饥饿，保持傻乎乎？有人翻译为”谦逊好奇，不断进取“，还有人翻译为”求知若饥，虚心若愚“。我觉得还是直译好了，乔帮主的意思可能是：富家子成不了什么气候，要饿着点才有动力；要敢于特立独行，就算别人说你蠢也无所谓。so
stay hungry, stay foolish.
以下为乔布斯的演讲全文。我综合了网上的几个翻译版本并做了多处修改，标题《想到了就去做》也是我加编的。如果您发现有明显翻译错误请留言告诉我。我推荐大家在看原文的时候一并看这个演讲的视频
，反复听（先遮住中文字幕），一直到不看字幕也能听懂每一个词。每一个不懂的词都用一个本子记下来（含音标），然后高声朗读原文，纠正自己的发音。搞定十几个这样的视频，你的英文听说和词汇量就会一起兔飞猛进。
Thank you. I'm honored to be with
you today for your commencement from one of the finest universities
in the world. Truth be told, I never graduated from college and this
is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I
want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal.
Just three stories.
谢谢。很荣幸今天能和诸位来自世界最好大学之一的毕业生们一起参加毕业典礼。老实说，我从来没从大学毕业过。今天是我离大学毕业最近的一次了。（笑声）。今天我想告诉大家我生活中的三个故事。没什么大不了的，只是三个故事。
The first story is about connecting the dots. I dropped out of Reed
College after the first six months but then stayed around as a
drop-in for another eighteen months or so before I really quit. So
why did I drop out? It started before I was born. My biological
mother was a young, unwed graduate student, and she decided to put
me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted
by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted
at birth by a lawyer and his wife, except that when I popped out,
they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl.
第一个故事：如何连点成线。
我在里德学院读了六个月就退学了，但在正式退学之前，作为一个退学生我在里德学院继续呆了大约18个月。为何要退学呢？这还得从我出生之前说起。我的生母是一个未婚的年轻大学生，她决定把我送给别人领养，但她执着认为我应该被一个父母是大学毕业的家庭所收养。好像一切都已注定我一出生就会被一对律师夫妇领养，然而就在我出生之时，他们在最后一分钟改变了主意，他们真正想要的是一个女孩。
So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle
of the night, asking, "We've got an unexpected baby boy, do you want
him?" They said, "Of course." My biological mother found out later
that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father
had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final
adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my
parents promised that I would go to college. This was the start in
my life.
那时我的父母排在收养我的候补名单中，在深夜他们接到一个电话问道，“我们有一个意外多出来的男婴，你们要他吗？“ 我父母说，”当然要！”
当后来我的生母发现我母亲没有大学毕业，父亲连高中都没毕业时，她拒绝在领养书上最后签字。几个月后，我的父母保证将来会让我上大学，她才妥协了。
我的人生就是这么开始的。
And seventeen years later, I did go to college, but I naively chose
a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my
working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college
tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no
idea what I wanted to do with my life, and no idea of how college
was going to help me figure it out, and here I was, spending all the
money my parents had saved for their entire life. So I decided to
drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty
scary at the time, but looking back, it was one of the best
decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out, I could stop taking
the required classes that didn't interest me and begin dropping in
on the ones that looked far more interesting.
十七年后，我真的上大学了，但我很天真地选了一所差不多和斯坦福一样贵的学校，那几乎要花掉我那蓝领父母所有的积蓄。六个月后，我觉得这么做没什么价值。我不知道自己的人生将要做什么，也看不出读大学会怎么帮我做出选择，而我却正在花掉父母一生的积蓄。所以我决定退学，我相信事情会好的。在那时这是一个惊人的决定，但现在看来，这是我一生中作出的最正确的决定之一。从我退学的那一刻起，我可以不再上那些我毫无兴趣的必修课，开始旁听那些看起来有意思多了的课。
It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the
floor in friends' rooms. I returned Coke bottles for the five-cent
deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the seven miles across
town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare
Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by
following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless
later on. Let me give you one example.
事情并不都那么浪漫。我没有宿舍可住了，只能睡在朋友宿舍的地上。为了买吃的，我去捡拾五分钱一个的旧可乐瓶，每个星期天晚上我都步行七英里，穿过这个城市去到Hare
Krishna神庙，只是为了每周一次能吃上一顿饱饭。我喜欢那里的食物。后来证明，能够按自己的好奇心和直觉蹒跚前行，这是多么珍贵。让我给你们举个例子吧。
Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy
instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster,
every label on every drawer was beautifully hand-calligraphed.
Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal
classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do
this. I learned about serif and sans-serif typefaces, about varying
the amount of space between different letter combinations, about
what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical,
artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found
it fascinating.
里德学院当时的书法指导可能是全国最好的。校园中每一张海报，抽屉上的每一张标签，都是漂亮的手写体。由于我已退学，不用再修那些正式课程，我决定去上一门书法课，看看这些手写体是怎么写出来的。在这门课上，我学会了“衬线serif”和"无衬线sans-serif"字体、知道了怎样在不同的字母组合中改变间距，明白了那些美丽的印刷体为什么那么美丽。这太漂亮了，充满了历史底蕴，艺术的微妙是科学所无法捕捉的，我觉得这太神奇了。
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my
life. But ten years later when we were designing the first Macintosh
computer, it all came back to me, and we designed it all into the
Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had
never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would
have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts,
and since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal
computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have
never dropped in on that calligraphy class and personals computers
might not have the wonderful typography that they do.
当时我根本没指望书法课在我以后的生活中能有什么实用价值。但是十年之后，我们在设计第一台麦金塔电脑Macintosh
时，它一下子又浮现在我眼前。于是我们把这些字体全都装进了Mac电脑里。这是第一台拥有漂亮字体的计算机。要不是我当初在大学里选了这么一门课，Macintosh
计算机里绝不会有那么多种字体，也不会有可变的字母间距，因为Windows只是照抄Macintosh，很可能所有的个人电脑都不会拥有这些。
（笑声加掌声）。我要不是退了学，决不会有机会选修这门书法课，个人电脑也可能不会有今天这些美丽的字体了。
Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when
I was in college, but it was very, very clear looking backwards 10
years later. Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward. 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--because
believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the
confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the
well-worn path, and that will make all the difference.
当然，我当时在大学里不可能看到这一点与它未来的联系。十年后回头看，两者之间联系就非常非常清楚了。同样地，你们也不可能看到现在的某点和未来是怎么联系起来的，只有将来才知道。所以你必须相信，现在的点点滴滴会在你的将来以某种方式串联起来。不管是什么，你必须相信一些东西
-
你的勇气、命运、人生、因缘，相信现在的点将来一定会连成线，这会让你有信心跟着你的心前行，哪怕它现在看起来离经叛道，但将来它一定会与众不同。
My second story is about love and loss. I was lucky. I found what I
loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents'
garage when I was twenty. We worked hard and in ten years, Apple had
grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company
with over 4,000 employees. We'd just released our finest creation,
the Macintosh, a year earlier, and I'd just turned thirty, and then
I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started?
第二个故事是关于爱和失去。我很幸运，很早就发现了自己喜欢做的事情。我二十岁的时候就和沃茨在父母的车库里创建了苹果公司。我们努力工作，十年后苹果从一个车库里的两人公司成长为拥有四千名员工，价值二十亿美元的大公司。我们刚推出了最好的作品Macintosh操作系统，在这之前的一年，我刚满三十岁，然后我就被解雇了。你怎么可能被一个自己创立的公司解雇？（笑声）
Well, as Apple grew, we hired someone who I thought was very
talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so,
things went well. But then our visions of the future began to
diverge, and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our board
of directors sided with him, and so at thirty, I was out, and very
publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was
gone, and it was devastating.
是这样的，在苹果公司成长时，我们雇佣了一个我认为非常有天分，可以和我一起经营公司的人。在第一年确实如此。但后来我们对公司的未来方向产生分歧，最后我们不得不摊牌。公司董事会站在了他的一边。于是，在我三十岁的时候，我被炒了，公开被炒了。我失去了我成年之后的人生焦点，这是一个毁灭性打击。
I really didn't know what to do for a few months. 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'd been rejected but I was still in love. And so I
decided to start over.
一开始的几个月我真不知道该干什么。我觉得自己让公司的前辈创业者们失望了，我把接力棒弄丢了。我面见了戴维-帕珂德（David
Packard，HP的创始人之一）和鲍勃-诺埃斯（Bob Noyce，Intel的创始人之一），试图为这搞砸了的事情道歉。我是一个众所周知的失败者，我甚至想要逃离硅谷。但是有个东西在慢慢唤醒我。我依然爱着我从事的行业。我在苹果的失败一点也没改变这点。我被驱逐了，但我仍爱着它。我决定重新开始。
I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from
Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The
heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being
a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter
one of the most creative periods in my life. During the next five
years I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar,
and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife.
Pixar went on to create the world's first computer-animated feature
film, "Toy Story," and is now the most successful animation studio
in the world.
当时我没有看出来，但事实证明被苹果开除对我来说是一件最好的事。成功者的重担被新入行者的轻松所替代，对任何事情都不再那么确信。我感觉到了自由，进入了我一生中最有创造力的阶段。接下来的五年，我创立了一个叫NeXT的公司，接着又建立了Pixar，与一个魅力女子相爱，她后来成为了我的妻子。Pixar出品了世界第一个电脑动画电影《玩具总动员》，现在它已经是世界最成功的动画制作工作室了。
In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT and I returned to
Apple and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of
Apple's current renaissance, and Lorene and I have a wonderful
family together. I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if
I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful-tasting medicine but I
guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life's going to hit you in
the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only
thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did.
在一系列不平常的转折事件里，苹果收购了NeXT，我又回到了苹果。我们在NeXT开发的技术在苹果的复兴中起了核心作用，另外，劳琳还和我一起建立了一个幸福的家庭。我非常肯定，如果没有被苹果炒掉，这些事一件也不会发生。这个药的味道很可怕，但是我想病人需要它。有时候生活会给你当头一棒。不要丧失信心。我确信，让我继续前行的唯一信念就是：热爱自己所做的事情。
You've got to find what you love, and that is as true for work as it
is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your
life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you
believe is great work, and the only way to do great work is to love
what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking, and don't
settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find
it, and like any great relationship it just gets better and better
as the years roll on. So keep looking. Don't settle.
你必须去寻找你的真爱，对事业是如此，对爱情也是一样。你的工作将会占据你生命的大部，唯一能让自己真正满意的就是去从事一个自己确信的伟大事业，唯一能让你做出伟业的就是热爱自己的工作。如果你还没有找到，那就继续找追寻，不要停止。心心相惜，当你找到的时候，你会知道的。就像任何真诚的关系，随着时间的流逝，它只会越来越紧密。所以，继续追寻，不要停止。
My third story is about death. When I was 17 I read a quote that was
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 something.
我的第三个故事是关于死亡。我十七岁的时候读到过一句引言：“如果你把每一天都当作生命的最后一天，终有一天你会发现你是正确的”。这句话给我留下了深刻的印象。从那之后，在过去的三十三年，每天早上我都会对着镜子问自己：“如果今天是最后一天，我今天要做的这些事是不是我想做的？”当答案为否连续多天之后，我就知道我需要改变了。
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important thing I've
ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life, because
almost everything--all external expectations, all pride, all fear of
embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face
of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you
are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of
thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is
no reason not to follow your heart.
时刻提醒自己离死不远是最重要的一件事，它帮我作出了生命中一系列重大选择。因为几乎任何事 -
所有外界的期望、所有的骄傲、所有对失败难堪的恐惧 -
在死亡面前都会彻底消散，只留下真正重要的东西。避开患得患失之陷阱的最好方法就是提醒自己将要面对死亡。你已经赤裸裸了，没有理由不跟随自己的心
。
About a year ago, I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30
in the morning and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I
didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was
almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I
should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor
advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctors'
code for "prepare to die." It means to try and tell your kids
everything you thought you'd have the next ten years to tell them,
in just a few months. It means to make sure that everything is
buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family.
It means to say your goodbyes.
大约一年前，我被诊断出患了癌症。我早上七点半作了扫描，清楚地显示我的胰腺有一个肿瘤。我当时都不知道胰腺是什么东西。医生们告诉我这几乎是无法治愈的，我还能最多存活三到六个月。我的医生建议我回家去整理好一切。医生的行话这就是“准备后事”的意思。它意味着把接下来十年要对孩子们说的话在几个月里说完；意味着把所有东西搞定，尽量让你的家庭能轻松面对；意味着你就要说“永别”了。
I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a
biopsy where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my
stomach into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a
few cells from the tumor. I was sedated but my wife, who was there,
told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope, the
doctor started crying, because it turned out to be a very rare form
of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery
and, thankfully, I am fine now.
我整日都想着那诊断的事情。后来有天晚上我做了一个活体检查，他们将一个内窥镜伸进我的喉咙，穿过胃到达肠道，用一根针在胰腺肿瘤上取了一些活体细胞。我当时是被麻醉的，但是当时在场的我妻子后来告诉我，当他们在显微镜下看到细胞的时候，医生开始哭泣，因为发现了这竟然是一种非常罕见的
能手术治愈的胰腺肿瘤。我做了手术，现在，我痊愈了。
This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope it's the
closest I get for a few more decades. Having 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. No one wants to die, even
people who want to go to Heaven don't want to die to get there, and
yet, death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped
it.
这是我最接近死亡的时候，我也希望是我未来几十年里最接近死亡的一次。这次死里逃生让我现在能更确信的告诉你们：死亡并不只是一个书面概念。没有人愿意死，即使那些想上天堂的人也不愿通过死亡来达到
那儿。但是死亡是每个人共同的终点，从来没有人能逃脱。
And that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single
best invention of life. It's life's change agent; it clears out the
old to make way for the new. right now, the new is you. But someday,
not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be
cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it's quite true. Your
time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't
be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other
people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out
your own inner voice, heart and intuition. They somehow already know
what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
也应该如此，因为死亡很可能是生命最好的发明。它是生命永恒的载体。没有死亡怎么会有新生？现在你们是新生的，但用不了很久，总有一天，你们也会慢慢变老然后死去。抱歉说这么戏剧性的话，但这是真的。你们的时间有限，不要浪费去重复别人的生活。不要被教条束缚，因为那意味着别人在代替你思考。不要让他人喧嚣的观点掩盖你心中的声音、你的心和你的直觉。它们也许已经知道你的真心所愿。所有其他东西都是次要的。
When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole
Earth Catalogue, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It
was created by a fellow named Stuart Brand not far from here in
Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This
was in the late Sixties, before personal computers and desktop
publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and
Polaroid cameras. it was sort of like Google in paperback form
thirty-five years before Google came along. It was idealistic,
overflowing with neat tools and great notions.
我年轻的时候，有一份非常好的出版物叫做“全球目录”，那是我这一代人的圣经之一。它是一个叫斯徒华特-布兰德的家伙主创的，他就住在离这不远的曼罗公园。他用诗一般的触觉将这份杂志带到世界。那是六十年代后期，个人电脑和电子桌面出版系统出现之前，所以这个出版物是用打字机、剪刀和一次成像照相机做出来的，有点像纸张印刷的谷歌google，类似谷歌不过却早了三十五年。它是理想主义的代表，充满着灵巧的工具和伟大的想法。
Stuart 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
issue. It was the mid-Seventies and I was your age. On 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 adventurous. Beneath 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 you.
斯徒华特和他的小组出版了几期“全球目录”，然后它也走到了尽头。他们出版了最后一期。那是七十年代中期，我和你们差不多大。最后一期的封底是一张清晨乡村小路的照片，如果你敢于在路边搭车旅行的话，也许你也会发现这样的小路。图片下面有一句话，“保持饥饿，保持
傻样”。这是他们的告别语。“保持饥饿，保持傻样”。我常以此勉励自己。现在，在你们即将踏上新旅程的时候，我也以此献给诸位。
Stay hungry, stay foolish.
保持饥饿，保持傻样。
Thank you all, very much.
非常感谢大家。
乔布斯，2005年6月12日
