1. 乔布斯(Steve Jobs)在斯坦福毕业典礼的演讲——Stay hungry. Stay foolish.

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.

当我十七岁的时候，我读到了一句话：“如果你把每一天都当作生命中最后一天去生活的话，那么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。从那时开始，过了33 年，我在每天早晨都会对着镜子问自己：“如果今天是我生命中的最后一天，你会不会完成你今天想做的事情呢?”当答案连续很多次被给予“不是”的时候，我知道自己需要改变某些事情了。

2. 杰夫·贝佐斯(Jeff Bezos)在普林斯顿毕业典礼的演讲——We are our choices.

I didn’t think I’d regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.

我认为我不会为失败地尝试而遗憾，但是有所决定但完全不去付诸行动则可能会一直煎熬着我。

3. JK罗琳在哈佛大学毕业典礼上的演讲——As is a tale， so is life： not how long it is， but how good it is， is what matters

Given a time machine or a Time Turner， I would tell my 21-year-old self that personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a check-list of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications， your CV， are not your life， though you will meet many people of my age and older who confuse the two. Life is difficult， and complicated， and beyond anyone’s total control， and the humility to know that will enable you to survive its vicissitudes.

如果能回到过去，她会告诉21岁的自己：一个人的幸福在于他懂得——生活不等于你的收获和成就。你的简历，你的证书并不代表你的生活，尽管很多人会混淆着两者。生活是如此的复杂，任何人都无法掌控它。明白了这一点，你就能够宠辱不惊。
