Steve Jobs' quotes
[中英双语] 乔布斯语录

Steve Jobs (L) vs. Bill Gates (R)

Steve Jobs (L) vs. Bill Gates (R)
关于经营
"A lot of companies have chosen to downsize, and maybe that was the right thing for them. We chose a different path. Our belief was that if we kept putting great products in front of customers, they would continue to open their wallets." 很多公司选择收缩规模,对于他们来说那可能是正确的道路。而我们选择了另一条路。我们始终相信,如果我们能够不断地推出了不起的产品,顾客们就会一直敞开他们的钱包。
"The cure for Apple is not cost-cutting. The cure for Apple is to innovate its way out of its current predicament." 治愈苹果之法并不在于降低成本,而是通过创新摆脱现在的困境。
关于对手
"The only problem with Microsoft is they just have no taste. They have absolutely no taste. And I don't mean that in a small way, I mean that in a big way, in the sense that they don't think of original ideas, and they don't bring much culture into their products." 微软唯一的问题是他们一点儿品味也没有。他们绝对没有任何品味。而且我说这话不是从小的方面,而是从大的方面说,因为他们不去考虑原创的点子,也没有在产品中注入什么文化。
"I wish him the best, I really do. I just think he and Microsoft are a bit narrow. He'd be a broader guy if he had dropped acid once or gone off to an ashram when he was younger." 我衷心祝愿他(比尔·盖茨)一切顺利。我只是觉得他和微软有点狭隘。要是他年轻的时候曾经嗑过药,或去过嬉皮士扎堆的地方,那他就会是一个心胸更为宽广的人。
关于事业
"I'm the only person I know that's lost a quarter of a billion dollars in one year... It's very character-building." 据我所知,我是惟一一个在一年之内就输掉2.5亿美元的人……这很大程度上塑造了我的性格。
"Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want a chance to change the world?" 你是想一辈子卖糖水呢,还是干改变世界的大事业?(他居然就这样说服了百事可乐公司的总裁约翰·斯卡利跳槽到苹果做CEO。)
"Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me... Going to bed at night saying we've done something wonderful... that's what matters to me." 对我来说,成为躺在墓地里最有钱的人可没什么吸引力。而晚上临睡前能够对自己说:“我们做了些了不起的事情。”这才是最重要的。
