2011年十月6日，美国苹果公司开创者史蒂夫-乔布斯因病去世。他被誉为一个年代的传奇，将科技和艺术做了完美的结合，改变了一代人的科技生活。乔布斯过世的噩耗传来，各地自发的哀悼活动此起彼伏。微博的讨论、哀悼更是瞬间井喷。乔布斯生前的演讲成为大伙一再转评的热门。以下为大伙推荐选取摘译的十大乔布斯名言。 1.Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want a chance to change the world? 你想用卖糖水来度过余生，还是想要一个机会来改变世界？ (The line he used to lure John Sculley into becoming Apples CEO) 2.Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Lifes change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new。 死亡非常可能是唯一的、最好的生命创造。它是生命的促变者。它送走老一代，给新一代开出道路。 3.If you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long. Just figure out whats next。 你若是出色地完成了某件事，那你应该再做一些其他的精彩事儿。不要在前一件事上徘徊太久，想想下面该干什么。 4.Theres a phrase in Buddhism, Beginners mind. Its wonderful to have a beginners mind。 佛教中有一句话：新手的心态；拥有新手的心态是件了不起的事情。 5.Being the richest man in the cemetery doesnt matter to me ... Going to bed at night saying weve done something wonderful... thats what matters to me。 是不是能成为坟墓里最富有些人，对我而言无足轻重。要紧的是，当我晚上睡觉时，我可以说：大家今天完成了一些美妙的事。 6.Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose。 谨记自己总会死去，是让自己防止陷入生活有所失考虑的最好办法。 7.Your time is limited, so dont waste it living someone elses life.Dont let the noise of others opinions drown out your own inner voice。 你的时间有限，不要浪费于重复其他人的生活。不要让其他人的看法淹没了你内心的声音。 8.Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary。 要有勇气追随性声，听从直觉--它们在某种程度上了解你想成为的样子。其他事情都是第二的。 9.Life is brief, and then you die, you know? 生活短暂，过着过着你就没了，了解嚒？ 10.You cant just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, theyll want something new。 你不可以只问客户要什么，然后想办法给他们干什么。等你做出来，他们已经另有新欢了。 互联网上流传着如此一句话，可能表达了大家对史蒂夫-乔布斯最深切的一定： Three Apples changed the world.The first one seduced Eve.The second one awakened Newton. The third one was in the hands of Steve Jobs. (三个苹果改变了世界。第一个魅惑了夏娃，第二个砸醒了牛顿，第三个曾在史蒂夫-乔布斯的学会。) Jobs, May you rest in peace。
