清晰记得前段时间的wukan村民和平散步的图集，有网友评论说：广东继经济改革开放之后，又一次走在了体制改革的前列，gov合法捍卫人民散步的权利。

这两天的事发生之后，突然觉得我们的人民是多么的天真可爱，总是不惜用最大的善意去揣测当权者。只可惜大概后来的更可爱的人民，无法再在墙内找到这个村落抗争过甚至存在过的证明。

手法一贯简单粗暴，思路一贯清晰异常。我们只保卫人民群众的利益，那么一切我们要打倒的，都必须是不人民的，不群众的，必须是有境外势力背后操纵的。对于这种破坏我们可爱的人民群众安定团结的坏分子，必须抽指甲死，喝水死，睡觉死，自己大卸八块死……总之是秋风扫落叶般的各种灰飞烟灭。于是，我们又一次成功的捍卫了体制内人民群众安居乐业依法纳税的权利。

我们的党，我们的国，我们的党国，在下一盘很大的棋。这棋局，大到你我都难以看懂，大到你以为他舍了一个卒，其实他保了一个车；你以为他保了车，其实他将了你的军；你以为他在将你的军，其实你才是那个拱出去的卒子……只要帅旗不倒，其他的，都可以牺牲。

2011年7月23日，不解释。 这是个神奇的国度。
我只是不明白，我们为什么要爱TM的国。哦，他们的国。

我做了一个艰难的决定，今年剩下的九天年假都用来骑行。去哪里，不可知；走多远，不可知；唯一可知的是，这应该是我最近最想干的事。在一个安逸的环境中待久了，总是会渐渐忘记自己想要的生活。而一个对于物质没有疯狂追求的人，在某些人眼里总是不求上进。一个不知道自己目标的并且在别人眼中不求上进的家伙，大概永远都是悲哀的。让我的悲哀远离你们的视线 ：）

从今天早上开始早起，跑步，唱红歌。。。。

有图有真相，边磕核桃边做的，还有一题交了白卷。。。

不好意思又是转贴，乔不死的一次演讲。关于做自己爱做的事，关于面对死亡，关于爱与失去。百分百值得一看，然后反思自己在做什么。他的幸与不幸，不在于创建苹果，不在于被苹果开除，更不在于离开苹果后回到苹果。他的不幸，是在于过早就面对死亡，他的幸运，而又在于面对死亡的无惧。把每天当作生命的最后一天，你还觉得你现在是在做自己真想做的事吗？

The text of the Commencement address by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios, delivered on June 12, 2005.

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, 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.

The first story is about connecting the dots.

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 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 college 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. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: “We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?” They said: “Of course.” My biological mother later found out 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 someday go to college.

And 17 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 how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved 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 interesting.

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 5?0?4 deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 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:
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 san 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.

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, its likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten 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. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

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 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation — the Macintosh — a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? 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. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.

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 had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.

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 of 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 worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple’s current renaissance. And Laurene 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 hits 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. You’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your 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. 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 until you find it. Don’t settle.

My third story is about death.

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 something.

Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool 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.
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 doctor’s code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you’d have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.

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 and 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 doctors 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 I’m fine now.

This was the closest I’ve been to facing death, and I hope its 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. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is 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 is 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. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960′s, 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, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.

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 issue. It was the mid-1970s, 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 it 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.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

Thank you all very much.

原载1932年7月3日《独立评论》第7号

这一两个星期里，各地的大学都有毕业的班次，都有得多的毕业生离开学校去开始他们的成人事业。
学生的生活是一种享有特殊优待的生活，不劣稚一点，不脸吵闹闹，社会都能纵容他们，不肯严格的要他们负行为的责任。现在他们要撑起自己的肩膀来挑他们自己的担子了。在这个国难最紧急的年头，他们的担子真不轻!我们祝他们的成功，同时也不忍不依据自己的经验，赠他们几句送行的赠言，–虽未必是救命毫毛，也许做个防身的锦囊罢!

你们毕业之后，可走的路不出这几条：绝少数的人还可以在国内或国外的研究院继续做学术研究;少数的人可以寻着相当的职业;此外还有做官，办党，革命三条路;此外就是在家享福或者失业亲居了。

走其余几条路的人，都不能没有堕落的危险。堕落的方式很多，总括起来，约有这两大类：

第一是容易抛弃学生时代求知识的欲望。你们到了实际社会里，往往学非所用，往往所学全无用处，往往可认完全用不着学问，而一样可认胡乱混饭吃，混官吃。在这种环境里即使向来抱有求知识学问的人，也不免心灰意懒，把求知的欲望渐渐冷淡下去。况且学问是要有相当的设备的;书籍，实验室，师友的切磋指导，闲暇的工夫，都不是一个平常要糊口养家的人的能容易办到的。没有做学问的环境，又谁能怪我们抛弃学问呢?

第二是容易抛弃学生时代理想的人生的追求。少年人初次和冷酷的社会接触，容易感觉理想与事实相去太远，容易发生悲观和失望。多年怀抱的人生理想，改造的热诚，奋斗的勇气，到此时候，好像全不是那么一回事了。渺小的个人在那强烈的社会炉火里，往往经不起长时期的烤炼就熔化了，一点高尚的理想不久就幻灭了。抱着改造社会的梦想而来，往往是弃甲抛兵而走，或者做了恶势的俘虏。你在那牢狱里，回想那少年气壮时代的种种理想主义，好像都成了自误误人的迷梦!从此以后，你就甘心放弃理想人生的追求，甘心做现在社会的顺民了。要防御这两方面的堕落，一面要保持我们求知识的欲望，一面要保持我们对人生的追求。

有什么好方法子呢?依我个人的观察和经验，有三种防身的药方是值得一试的。

第一个方子只有一句话：“总得时时寻一两个值得研究的问题!”问题是知识学问的老祖宗;古往今来一切知识的产生与积聚，都是因为要解答问题，–要解答实用上的困难和理论上的疑难。所谓“为知识而求知识”，其实也只是一种好奇心追求某种问题的解答，不过因为那种问题的性质不必是直接应用的，人们就觉得这是无所谓的求知识了。

我们出学校之后，离开了做学问的环境，如果没有一二个值得解答的问题在脑子里盘旋，就很难保持求学问的热心。可是，如果你有了一个真有趣的问题逗你去想他，天天引诱你去解决他，天天对你挑衅你无可奈何他，–这时候，你就会同恋爱一个女子发了疯一样，坐也坐不下，睡也睡不安，没工夫也得偷出工夫去陪她，没钱也得缩衣节食去巴结她。没有书，你自会变卖家私去买书;没有仪器，你自会典押衣物去置办仪器;没有师友，你自会不远千里去寻师访友。你只要有疑难问题来逼你时时用脑子，你自然会保持发展你对学问的兴趣，即使在最贫乏的知识中，你也会慢慢的聚起一个小图书馆来，或者设置起一所小试验室来。所以我说，第一要寻问题。脑子里没有问题之日，就是你知识生活寿终正寝之时!古人说，“待文王而兴者，凡民也。若夫豪杰之士，虽无文王犹兴。”试想伽利略 (GALIEO)和牛顿(NEWTON)有多少藏书?有多少仪器?他们不过是有问题而己。有了问题而后他们自会造出仪器来解决他们的问题。没有问题的人们，关在图书馆里也不会用书，锁在试验室里也不会有什么发现。

第二个方子也只有一句话：“总得多发展一点非职业的兴趣，”离开学校之后，大家总是寻个吃饭的职业。可是你寻得的职业未必就是你所学的，未必是你所心喜的，或者是你所学的而和你性情不相近的。在这种情况之下，工作往往成了苦工，就感觉不到兴趣了。为糊口而做那种非“性之所近而力之所能勉”的工作，就很难保持求知的兴趣和生活的理想主义。最好的救济方法只有多多发展职业以外的正当兴趣与活动。

一个人应该有他的职业，也应该有他非职业的玩艺儿，可以叫做业余活动。往往他的业余活动比他的职业还更重要，因为一个人成就怎样，往往靠他怎样利用他的闲暇时间。他用他的闲暇来打麻将，他就成了个赌徒;你用你的闲暇来做社会服务，你也许成个社会改革者;或者你用你的闲暇去研究历史，你也许成个史学家。你的闲暇往往定你的终身。英国十九世纪的两个哲人，弥儿(J.S.MILL)终身做东印度公司的秘书，然而他的业余工作使他在哲学上，经济学上，政治思想史上都占一个很高的位置; 斯宾塞(SPENCER)是一个测量工程师，然而他的业余工作使他成为前世纪晚期世界思想界的一个重镇。古来成大学问的人，几乎没有一个不善用他的闲暇时间的。特别在这个组织不健全的中国社会，职业不容易适合我们的性情，我们要想生活不苦痛不堕落，只有多方发展。

有了这种心爱的玩艺，你就做六个钟头抹桌子工作也不会感觉烦闷了，因为你知道，抹了六个钟的桌子之后，你可以回家做你的化学研究，或画完你的大幅山水，或写你的小说戏曲，或继续你的历史考据，或做你的社会改革事业。你有了这种称心如意的活动，生活就不枯寂了，精神也就不会烦闷了。

第三个方法也只有一句话：“你得有一点信心。”我们生当这个不幸的时代，眼中所见，耳中所闻，无非是叫我们悲观失望的。特别是在这个年头毕业的你们，眼见自己的国家民族沉沦到这步田地，眼看世界只是强权的世界，望极天边好像看不见一线的光明–在这个年头不发狂自杀，已算是万幸了，怎么还能够保持一点内心的镇定和理想的信任呢?我要对你们说：这时候正是我们要培养我们的信心的时候!只要我们有信心，我们还有救。

古人说：“信心(FAITH)可以移山。” 又说：“只要工夫深，生铁磨成绣花针。”你不信吗?当拿破仑的军队征服普鲁士，占据柏林的时候，有一位教授叫做费希特(FICHTE)的，天天在讲堂劝他的国人要有信心，要信仰他们的民族是有世界的特殊使命的，是必定要复兴的。费希特死的时候，谁也不能预料德意志统一帝国何时可以实现。然而不满五十年，新的统一的德意志帝国居然实现了。

一个国家的强弱盛衰，都不是偶然的，都不能逃出因果的铁律的。我们今日所受的苦痛和耻辱，都只是过去种种恶因种下的恶果。我们要收获将来的善果，必须努力种现在新因。一粒一粒的种，必有满仓满屋的收，这是我们今日应有的信心。我们要深信：今日的失败，都由于过去的不努力。我们要深信：今日的努力，必定有将来的大收成。

佛典里有一句话：“福不唐捐。”唐捐就是白白的丢了。我们也应该说：“功不唐捐!”没有一点努力是会白白的丢了的。在我们看不见想不到的时候，在我们看不见的方向，你瞧!你下的种子早已生根发叶开花结果了!你不信吗? 法国被普鲁士打败之后，割了两省地，赔了五十万万法朗的赔款。这时候有一位刻苦的科学家巴斯德(PASTEUR)终日埋头在他的化学试验室里做他的化学试验和微菌学研究。他是一个最爱国的人然而他深信只有科学可以救国。他用一生的精力证明了三个科学问题：(1)每一种发酵作用都是由于一种微菌的发展; (2)每一种传染病都是一种微菌在生物体内的发展;(3)传染病的微菌，在特殊的培养之下可以减轻毒力，使他们从病菌变成防病的药苗。

这三个问题在表面上似乎都和救国大事业没有多大关系。然而从第一个问题的证明，巴斯德定出做醋酿酒的新法，使全国的酒醋业每年减除极大的损失。从第二个问题的证明巴斯德教全国的蚕丝业怎样选种防病，教全国的畜牧农家怎样防止牛羊瘟疫，又教全世界怎样注重消毒以减少外科手术的死亡率。从第三个问题的证明，巴斯德发明了牲畜的脾热瘟的疗治药苗，每年替法国农家减除了二千万法朗的大损失;又发明了疯狗咬毒的治疗法，救济了无数的生命。所以英国的科学家赫胥黎 (HUXLEY)在皇家学会里称颂巴斯德的功绩道：“法国给了德国五十万万法朗的赔款，巴斯德先生一个人研究科学的成就足够还清这一笔赔款了。” 巴斯德对于科学有绝大的信心，所以他在国家蒙奇辱大难的时候，终不肯抛弃他的显微镜与试验室。他绝不想他有显微镜底下能偿还五十万万法朗的赔款，然而在他看不见想不到的时候，他已收获了科学救国的奇迹了。

朋友们，在你最悲观失望的时候，那正是你必须鼓起坚强的信心的时候。你要深信：天下没有白费的努力。成功不必在我，而功力必不唐捐。
