A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
公司
Company
Finally, I would like to remind record companies that they have a cultural responsibility to give the buying public great music. Milking a trend to death is not contributing to culture and is ultimately not profitable.
最后,我想提醒唱片公司,他们有文化责任为购买音乐的大众提供优质的音乐。从一种走向死亡的趋势中榨取利润对文化没有贡献,最终也不会带来利润。
The people at the record company had asked me if I could write a song about my life, my relationship with God, and where I'm from. Well, I can't write a song on purpose, my songs come in a moment of inspiration or desperation.
唱片公司的人问我是否可以写一首关于我的生活,我与上帝的关系,我来自哪里的歌。好吧,我不能故意写一首歌,我的歌来自灵感或绝望的时刻。
The biggest mistake that you can make is to believe that you are working for somebody else. Job security is gone. The driving force of a career must come from the individual. Remember: Jobs are owned by the company, you own your career!
你可能犯的最大错误就是相信你在为别人工作。工作保障消失了。事业的动力必须来自个人。记住:工作是公司的,事业是你的!
A new father quickly learns that his child invariably comes to the bathroom at precisely the times when he's in there, as if he needed company. The only way for this father to be certain of bathroom privacy is to shave at the gas station.
刚当上父亲的人很快就会发现,他的孩子总是在他上厕所的准确时间来上厕所,好像他需要有人陪着一样。对这位父亲来说,确保浴室隐私的唯一方法就是在加油站刮胡子。
One of the things I've had the advantage of, growing up and being close to the top management of this company and other companies for most of my life, is seeing how CEOs start to believe in their own infallibility. And that really scares me.
在我成长的过程中,与这家公司以及其他公司的最高管理层关系密切,我有一个优势,那就是看到首席执行官们开始相信自己是绝对正确的。这让我很害怕。
In other words, don't expect to always be great. Disappointments, failures and setbacks are a normal part of the lifecycle of a unit or a company and what the leader has to do is constantly be up and say 'we have a problem, let's go and get it'.
换句话说,不要期望自己总是很优秀。失望、失败和挫折是一个单位或公司生命周期中正常的一部分,领导者必须不断地站起来说:“我们有问题,让我们去解决它。”
Anybody who is running a marathon or doing a walkathon, doing a fundraiser for their school, their company, by far it's guaranteed the easiest and most fun way to quickly set up a fundraising campaign and send it around to your friends and family.
任何参加马拉松或步行马拉松的人,为他们的学校和公司筹集资金的人,到目前为止,这肯定是最简单和最有趣的方式来迅速建立一个筹款活动,并把它发送给你的朋友和家人。
There are certainly valid reasons for taking a company private, and it's also possible that C.E.O.s perform better when monitored by a small number of owners in a private company rather than by the dispersed and often uninterested shareholders of a public corporation.
将一家公司私有化当然有合理的理由,也有可能是首席执行官在私营公司的少数股东而不是上市公司分散的、通常不感兴趣的股东的监督下,公司的表现会更好。
It's not about charisma and personality, it's about results and products and those very bedrock things that are why people at Apple and outside of Apple are getting more excited about the company and what Apple stands for and what its potential is to contribute to the industry.
这不是关于个人魅力和个性,而是关于结果和产品,以及那些非常重要的东西,这就是为什么苹果公司内外的人对公司越来越感兴趣,对苹果所代表的以及它对这个行业的贡献潜力越来越感兴趣。
Every one knows, that the mind will not be kept from contemplating what it loves in the midst of crowds and business. Hence come those frequent absences, so observable in conversation; for whilst the body is confined to present company, the mind is flown to that which it delights in.
每个人都知道,在人群和商业中,人们的头脑不会停止思考自己喜欢什么。因此,他们常常不在家,这在谈话中是显而易见的。因为当身体被限制在现在的陪伴下,思想就会飞向它所喜欢的东西。
The engineering is long gone in most PC companies. In the consumer electronics companies, they don't understand the software parts of it. And so you really can't make the products that you can make at Apple anywhere else right now. Apple's the only company that has everything under one roof.
大多数个人电脑公司的工程学早就过时了。在消费类电子产品公司,他们不了解其中的软件部分。所以现在你真的不能在其他任何地方生产你在苹果可以生产的产品。苹果是唯一一家把所有东西都放在一个屋檐下的公司。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
There are two kinds of companies, those that work to try to charge more and those that work to charge less. We will be the second.
有两种公司,一种努力提高收费,另一种努力降低收费。我们将是第二个。
Personally, one of the down sides of founding a company is that there is always too much work to do, and sadly I find I don't have much time to code any more.
就我个人而言,创建一家公司的不利之处之一就是总是有太多的工作要做,遗憾的是,我发现我没有太多的时间来编写代码了。
"Stay" is a charming word in a friend's vocabulary.
在朋友的字典里,“留下”是一个很有魅力的词。
Medical professionals, not insurance company bureaucrats, should be making health care decisions.
医疗专业人士,而不是保险公司的官员,应该做出医疗决定。
If misery loves company, then triumph demands an audience.
如果痛苦喜欢陪伴,那么胜利需要一个观众。
If you're working for a good company and you're happy there, and you're being compensated accordingly, and your work satisfies you, you should stay there.
如果你在一家好公司工作,而且你在那里很快乐,你得到了相应的报酬,你的工作让你满意,你应该留在那里。
