Jbs says This is the text f the Cmmencement address by Steve Jbs, CE f Apple Cmputer and f Pixar Animatin Studis, delivered n June 12, 201X. I am hnred t be ith yu tday at yur mencement frm ne f the finest universities in the rld. I never graduated frm cllege. Truth be tld, this is the clsest I?ve ever gtten t a cllege graduatin. Tday I ant t tell yu three stries frm my life. That?s it. N big deal. Just three stries. The first stry is abut cnnecting the dts. I drpped ut f Reed Cllege after the first 6 mnths, but then stayed arund as a drp-in fr anther 18 mnths r s befre I really quit. S hy did I drp ut? It started befre I as brn. My bilgical mther as a yung, uned cllege graduate student, and she decided t put me up fr adptin. She felt very strngly that I shuld be adpted by cllege graduates, s everything as all set fr me t be adpted at birth by a layer and his ife. Except that hen I ppped ut they decided at the last minute that they really anted a girl. S my parents, h ere n a aiting list, gt a call in the middle f the night asking: “e have an unexpected baby by; d yu ant him?” They said: “f curse.” My bilgical mther later fund ut that my mther had never graduated frm cllege and that my father had never graduated frm high schl. She refused t sign the final adptin papers. She nly relented a fe mnths later hen my parents prmised that I uld smeday g t cllege. And 17 years later I did g t cllege. But I naively chse a cllege that as almst as expensive as Stanfrd, and all f my rking-class parents? savings ere being spent n my cllege tuitin. After six mnths, I culdn?t see the value in it. I had n idea hat I anted t d ith my life and n idea h cllege as ging t help me figure it ut. And here I as spending all f the mney my parents had saved their entire life. S I decided t drp ut and trust that it uld all rk ut K. It as pretty scary at the time, but lking back it as ne f the best decisins I ever made. The minute I drpped ut I culd stp taking the required classes that didn?t interest me, and begin drpping in n the nes that lked interesting. It asn?t all rmantic. I didn?t have a drm rm, s I slept n the flr in friends? rms, I returned cke bttles fr the 5? depsits t buy fd ith, and I uld alk the 7 miles acrss tn every Sunday night t get ne gd meal a eek at the Hare Krishna temple. I lved it. And much f hat I stumbled int by flling my curisity and intuitin turned ut t be priceless later n. Let me give yu ne example: Reed Cllege at that time ffered perhaps the best calligraphy instructin in the cuntry. Thrughut the campus every pster, every label n every draer, as beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had drpped ut and didn?t have t take the nrmal classes, I decided t take a calligraphy class t learn h t d this. I learned abut serif and san serif typefaces, abut varying the amunt f space beteen different letter binatins, abut hat makes great typgraphy great. It as beautiful, histrical, artistically subtle in a ay that science can?t capture, and I fund it fascinating. Nne f this had even a hpe f any practical applicatin in my life. But ten years later, hen e ere designing the first Macintsh puter, it all came back t me. And e designed it all int the Mac. It as the first puter ith beautiful typgraphy. If I had never drpped in n that single curse in cllege, the Mac uld have never had multiple typefaces r prprtinally spaced fnts. And since inds just cpied the Mac, its likely that n persnal puter uld have them. If I had never drpped ut, I uld have never drpped in n this calligraphy class, and persnal puters might nt have the nderful typgraphy that they d. f curse it as impssible t cnnect the dts lking frard hen I as in cllege. But it as very, very clear lking backards ten years later. Again, yu can?t cnnect the dts lking frard; yu can nly cnnect them lking backards. S yu have t trust that the dts ill smeh cnnect in yur future. Yu have t trust in smething - yur gut, destiny, life, karma, hatever. This apprach has never let me dn, and it has made all the difference in my life. My secnd stry is abut lve and lss. I as lucky - I fund hat I lved t d early in life. z and I started Apple in my parents garage hen I as 20. e rked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grn frm just the t f us in a garage int a $2 billin pany ith ver 4000 emplyees. e had just released ur finest creatin - the Macintsh - a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I gt fired. H can yu get fired frm a pany yu started? ell, as Apple gre e hired smene h I thught as very talented t run the pany ith me, and fr the first year r s things ent ell. But then ur visins f the future began t diverge and eventually e had a falling ut. hen e did, ur Bard f Directrs sided ith him. S at 30 I as ut. And very publicly ut. hat had been the fcus f my entire adult life as gne, and it as devastating. I really didn?t kn hat t d fr a fe mnths. I felt that I had let the previus generatin f entrepreneurs dn - that I had drpped the batn as it as being passed t me. I met ith David Packard and Bb Nyce and tried t aplgize fr screing up s badly. I as a very public failure, and I even thught abut running aay frm the valley. But smething slly began t dan n me - I still lved hat I did. The turn f events at Apple had nt changed that ne bit. I had been rejected, but I as still in lve. And s I decided t start ver. I didn?t see it then, but it turned ut that getting fired frm Apple as the best thing that culd have ever happened t me. The heaviness f being successful as replaced by the lightness f being a beginner again, less sure abut everything. It freed me t enter ne f the mst creative perids f my life. During the next five years, I started a pany named NeXT, anther pany named Pixar, and fell in lve ith an amazing man h uld bee my ife. Pixar ent n t create the rlds first puter animated feature film, Ty Stry, and is n the mst successful animatin studi in the rld. In a remarkable turn f events, Apple bught NeXT, I retuned t Apple, and the technlgy e develped at NeXT is at the heart f Apple?s current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a nderful family tgether. I?m pretty sure nne f this uld have happened if I hadn?t been fired frm Apple. It as aful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Smetimes life hits yu in the head ith a brick. Dn?t lse faith. I?m cnvinced that the nly thing that kept me ging as that I lved hat I did. Yu?ve gt t find hat yu lve. And that is as true fr yur rk as it is fr yur lvers. Yur rk is ging t fill a large part f yur life, and the nly ay t be truly satisfied is t d hat yu believe is great rk. And the nly ay t d great rk is t lve hat yu d. If yu haven?t fund it yet, keep lking. Dn?t settle. As ith all matters f the heart, yu?ll kn hen yu find it. And, like any great relatinship, it just gets better and better as the years rll n. S keep lking until yu find it. Dn?t settle. My third stry is abut death. hen I as 17, I read a qute that ent smething like: “If yu live each day as if it as yur last, smeday yu?ll mst certainly be right.” It made an impressin n me, and since then, fr the past 33 years, I have lked in the mirrr every mrning and asked myself: “If tday ere the last day f my life, uld I ant t d hat I am abut t d tday?” And henever the anser has been “N” fr t many days in a r, I kn I need t change smething. Remembering that I?ll be dead sn is the mst imprtant tl I?ve ever encuntered t help me make the big chices in life. Because almst everything - all external expectatins, all pride, all fear f embarrassment r failure - these things just fall aay in the face f death, leaving nly hat is truly imprtant. Remembering that yu are ging t die is the best ay I kn t avid the trap f thinking yu have smething t lse. Yu are already naked. There is n reasn nt t fll yur heart. Abut a year ag I as diagnsed ith cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the mrning, and it clearly shed a tumr n my pancreas. I didn?t even kn hat a pancreas as. The dctrs tld me this as almst certainly a type f cancer that is incurable, and that I shuld expect t live n lnger than three t six mnths. My dctr advised me t g hme and get my affairs in rder, hich is dctr?s cde fr prepare t die. It means t try t tell yur kids everything yu thught yu?d have the next 10 years t tell them in just a fe mnths. It means t make sure everything is buttned up s that it ill be as easy as pssible fr yur family. It means t say yur gdbyes. I lived ith that diagnsis all day. Later that evening I had a bipsy, here they stuck an endscpe dn my thrat, thrugh my stmach and int my intestines, put a needle int my pancreas and gt a fe cells frm the tumr. I as sedated, but my ife, h as there, tld me that hen they vieed the cells under a micrscpe the dctrs started crying because it turned ut t be a very rare frm f pancreatic cancer that is curable ith surgery. I had the surgery and I?m fine n. This as the clsest I?ve been t facing death, and I hpe its the clsest I get fr a fe mre decades. Having lived thrugh it, I can n say this t yu ith a bit mre certainty than hen death as a useful but purely intellectual cncept: N ne ants t die. Even peple h ant t g t heaven dn?t ant t die t get there. And yet death is the destinatin e all share. N ne has ever escaped it. And that is as it shuld be, because Death is very likely the single best inventin f Life. It is Life?s change agent. It clears ut the ld t make ay fr the ne. Right n the ne is yu, but smeday nt t lng frm n, yu ill gradually bee the ld and be cleared aay. Srry t be s dramatic, but it is quite true. Yur time is limited, s dn?t aste it living smene else?s life. Dn?t be trapped by dgma - hich is living ith the results f ther peple?s thinking. Dn?t let the nise f ther?s pinins drn ut yur n inner vice. And mst imprtant, have the curage t fll yur heart and intuitin. They smeh already kn hat yu truly ant t bee. Everything else is secndary. hen I as yung, there as an amazing publicatin called The hle Earth Catalg, hich as ne f the bibles f my generatin. It as created by a fell named Steart Brand nt far frm here in Menl Park, and he brught it t life ith his petic tuch. This as in the late 1960?s, befre persnal puters and desktp publishing, s it as all made ith typeriters, scissrs, and plarid cameras. It as srt f like Ggle in paperback frm, 35 years befre Ggle came alng: it as idealistic, and verfling ith neat tls and great ntins. 篇二： 乔布斯在斯坦福大学的演讲稿(中英) 名人演讲 乔布斯演讲 总结自己的一生 这是苹果公司和Pixar动画工作室的CE Steve Jbs于201X年6月12号在斯坦福大学的毕业典礼上面的演讲稿。 I am hnred t be ith yu tday at yur mencement frm ne f the finest universities in the rld. I never graduated frm cllege. Truth be tld, this is the clsest I ve ever gtten t a cllege graduatin. Tday I ant t tell yu three stries frm my life. That s it. N big deal. Just three stries. 我今天很荣幸能和你们一起参加毕业典礼，斯坦福大学是世界上最好的大学之一。我从来没有从大学中毕业。说实话,今天也许是在我的生命中离大学毕业最近的一天了。今天我想向你们讲述我生活中的三个故事。不是什么大不了的事情,只是三个故事而已。 The first stry is abut cnnecting the dts. 第一个故事是关于“因”和“果”。 I drpped ut f Reed Cllege after the first 6 mnths, but then stayed arund as a drp-in fr anther 18 mnths r s befre I really quit. S hy did I drp ut? 我在Reed大学读了六个月之后就退学了,但是在十八个月以后我真正的作出退学决定之前,我还经常去学校。我为什么要退学呢？ It started befre I as brn. My bilgical mther as a yung, uned cllege graduate student, and she decided t put me up fr adptin. She felt very strngly that I shuld be adpted by cllege graduates, s everything as all set fr me t be adpted at birth by a layer and his ife. Except that hen I ppped ut they decided at the last minute that they really anted a girl. S my parents, h ere n a aiting list, gt a call in the middle f the night asking: e have an unexpected baby by; d yu ant him? They said: f curse. My bilgical mther later fund ut that my mther had never graduated frm cllege and that my father had never graduated frm high schl. She refused t sign the final adptin papers. She nly relented a fe mnths later hen my parents prmised that I uld smeday g t cllege. 故事从我出生的时候讲起。我的亲生母亲是一个年轻的,没有结婚的大学毕业生。她决定让别人收养我, 她十分想让我被大学毕业生收养。所以在我出生的时候，她已经做好了一切的准备工作，能使得我被一个律师和他的妻子所收养。但是她没有料到,当我出生之后,律师夫妇突然决定他们想要一个女孩。 所以我的生养父母（他们还在我亲生父母的观察名单上）突然在半夜接到了一个电话:“我们现在这儿有一个不小心生出来的男婴,你们想要他吗？”他们回答道:“当然！”但是我亲生母亲随后发现，我的养母从来没有上过大学,我的父亲甚至从没有读过高中。她拒绝签这个收养合同。但是在几个月以后,我的父母答应她一定要让我上大学,那个时候她才同意。 And 17 years later I did g t cllege. But I naively chse a cllege that as almst as expensive as Stanfrd, and all f my rking-class parents savings ere being spent n my cllege tuitin. After six mnths, I culdn t see the value in it. I had n idea hat I anted t d ith my life and n idea h cllege as ging t help me figure it ut. And here I as spending all f the mney my parents had saved their entire life. S I decided t drp ut and trust that it uld all rk ut K. It as pretty scary at the time, but lking back it as ne f the best decisins I ever made. The minute I drpped ut I culd stp taking the required classes that didn t interest me, and begin drpping in n the nes that lked interesting. 在十七岁那年,我真的上了大学。但是我很天真的选择了一个几乎和你们斯坦福大学一样贵的学校, 我父母还处于蓝领阶层，他们几乎把所有积蓄都花在了我的学费上面。在六个月后, 我已经看不到其中的价值所在。我不知道我想要在生命中做什么,我也不知道大学能帮助我找到怎样的答案。 但是在这里，我几乎花光了我父母这一辈子的所有积蓄。所以我决定要退学,我觉得这是个正确的决定。不能否认,我当时确实非常的害怕, 但是现在回头看看,那的确是我这一生中最明智的一个决定。在我做出退学决定的那一刻, 我终于可以不必去读那些令我提不起丝毫兴趣的课程了。然后我还可以去修那些看起来有点意思的课程。 It asn t all rmantic. I didn t have a drm rm, s I slept n the flr in friends rms, I returned cke bttles fr the 5 depsits t buy fd ith, and I uld alk th(转 载于:.SmHaIDA.cM 海达 范文 网:乔布斯斯坦福大学演讲)e 7 miles acrss tn every Sunday night t get ne gd meal a eek at the Hare Krishna temple. I lved it. And much f hat I stumbled int by flling my curisity and intuitin turned ut t be priceless later n. Let me give yu ne example: 但是这并不是那么罗曼蒂克。我失去了我的宿舍,所以我只能在朋友房间的地板上面睡觉,我去捡5美分的可乐瓶子，仅仅为了填饱肚子, 在星期天的晚上,我需要走七英里的路程，穿过这个城市到Hare Krishna寺庙（注： 位于纽约Brklyn下城）,只是为了能吃上饭这个星期唯一一顿好一点的饭。但是我喜欢这样。我跟着我的直觉和好奇心走, 遇到的很多东西,此后被证明是无价之宝。让我给你们举一个例子吧： Reed Cllege at that time ffered perhaps the best calligraphy instructin in the cuntry. Thrughut the campus every pster, every label n every draer, as beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had drpped ut and didn t have t take the nrmal classes, I decided t take a calligraphy class t learn h t d this. I learned abut serif and san serif typefaces, abut varying the amunt f space beteen different letter binatins, abut hat makes great typgraphy great. It as beautiful, histrical, artistically subtle in a ay that science can t capture, and I fund it fascinating. Reed大学在那时提供也许是全美最好的美术字课程。在这个大学里面的每个海报, 每个抽屉的标签上面全都是漂亮的美术字。因为我退学了, 没有受到正规的训练, 所以我决定去参加这个课程，去学学怎样写出漂亮的美术字。我学到了san serif 和serif字体, 我学会了怎么样在不同的字母组合之中改变空格的长度, 还有怎么样才能作出最棒的印刷式样。那是一种科学永远不能捕捉到的、美丽的、真实的艺术精妙, 我发现那实在是太美妙了。 Nne f this had even a hpe f any practical applicatin in my life. But ten years later, hen e ere designing the first Macintsh puter, it all came back t me. And e designed it all int the Mac. It as the first puter ith beautiful typgraphy. If I had never drpped in n that single curse in cllege
