Steven Paul Jobs于2011年10月5日逝世,享年56岁。他结婚20年,有三个女儿和一个儿子。他的成就彻底改变了我们所在的世界。他在临终前,回首前尘,说下这段话。
我在商业世界中达到了成功的巅峰。在别人的眼里,我的生命是成功的缩影。
I reached the pinnicle of success in the business world. In others eyes my life was an epitome of success.
但是,除了工作,我有很少的欢乐…
However… aside from work, I have little joy…
最终,财富只是我生活中已习惯了的现实。
In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that I'm accustomed.
这一刻,躺在病床上,回想起我的一生。我意识到,我所有的认同和财富都令我非常自豪。但面对即将到来的死亡,它们变得毫无意义。
At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life. I realise that , all the recognition and wealth I took so much pride in have paled and become meaningless in the face of inpeading death.
在黑暗中,我看着医疗仪器发出的绿灯,听到仪器发出的嗡嗡声。我感觉到死神的呼吸越来越近了。
In the darkness, I look at the green lights from the life supporting machines, and hear the humming mechanical sounds. I can feel the breathe of god of death drawing closer.
现在我知道,当我们一生积累了足够的财富之后,我们应该追求一些与财富无关的事。
Now I know, when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime. We should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth.
应该是更重要的事情:也许是人情;
Should be something that's more important. Perhaps relationships;
也许是艺术;也许是年轻时的梦想。
Perhaps art; Perhaps a dream from younger days.
不断的追求财富只会使一个人变得扭曲,就像我一样。
Non-stop pursueing of wealth will only turn a person in to a twisted being. Just like me…
上帝给了我们感官,就是让我们感受每个人心中的爱,而不是财富带来的幻想。
God gave us the senses, to let us feel the love in everyones heart. Not the illusions brought out by wealth.
在我生命中赢得的财富,我不能带着离开。我只能带着爱情中沉淀的记忆。这是跟着你的真正财富,陪伴你,给你力量和光芒照继续下去。
The wealth that I've won in my life, I cannot bring with me. What I can bring is only the memories precipitated by love. That's the true riches which will follow you, company you. Giving you strength and light to go on.
爱可以行千里。
Love can travel a thousand miles.
生活是没有限制的。
Life has no limit.
去你想去的地方,到达你想要的高峰。这一切都在你的心中和手中。
Go where you want to go, reach the height you want to reach. It's all in your heart and in your hands.
世界上最昂贵的床是什么?
What's the most expensive bed in the world?
病床。
Sick bed.
你可以聘请一个人为你开车,为你赚钱,但你不能聘请一个人为你承受疾病。
You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you, but you cannot have someone to bear the sickness for you.
物质的损失是可以找回的,但是有一样东西失去了是永远都不会找回的:
Material things lost can be found, but there is one thing that can be found when It's lost.
生命。
Life.
当一个人走进手术室时,他会意识到有一本书,他还没有阅读完。
When a person goes in to the operating room, he will realise that there is one book that he he is yet to finish reading.
健康生活的书。
The book of healthy life.
无论你现在的生活属于哪个阶段,随着时间的流逝,你将会面对窗帘下降的那天。
Whichever stage in life you are at right now, with time, you will face the day when the curtain comes down.
珍惜爱你的家人,爱你的伴侣,爱你的朋友。
Treasure love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends.
善待自己。
Treat yourself well.
善待他人。
Cherish others.
