我们因没有和爱迪生,爱因斯坦等创造者同处一时代而觉遗憾,我们因和乔布斯这样的创造者同处一时代而觉幸运。
我觉得下文的评价比较恰当.我就不翻译了,以免丧失原文的精确性.
Following the loss of visionary Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, President Obama released this statement:
Michelle and I are saddened to learn of the passing of Steve Jobs. Steve was among the greatest of American innovators - brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.
By building one of the planet’s most successful companies from his garage, he exemplified the spirit of American ingenuity. By making computers personal and putting the internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution not only accessible, but intuitive and fun. And by turning his talents to storytelling, he has brought joy to millions of children and grownups alike. Steve was fond of saying that he lived every day like it was his last. Because he did, he transformed our lives, redefined entire industries, and achieved one of the rarest feats in human history: he changed the way each of us sees the world.
The world has lost a visionary. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented. Michelle and I send our thoughts and prayers to Steve’s wife Laurene, his family, and all those who loved him.
附A:
没有人愿意死,即使人们想上天堂,人们也不会为了去那里而死。但是死亡是我们每个人共同的终点。从来没有人能够逃脱它。也应该如此。因为死亡就是生命中最好的一个发明。它将旧的清除以便给新的让路。
你的时间有限,所以不要为别人而活。不要被教/条所限,不要活在别人的观念里。不要让别人的意见左右自己内心的声音。最重要的是,勇敢的去追随自己的心灵和直觉,只有自己的心灵和直觉才知道你自己的真实想法,其他一切都是次要。 ——Steve Jobs ,1955-2011
附B:
1,大家对iPod,iPhone,iPad都特熟悉,在此再推荐早些年的电影<<硅谷传奇>>,以了解JOBS对个人PC发展的巨大贡献.
2,有人说,我没用过苹果的产品,没关系,现在的许多手机等数码产品都含有JOBS的思想.
3,有人说,不喜欢苹果的封闭性;我个人想说,那是商业行为,与创新创造关系不大.
