左手把车开右手摸着奶
高速公路之上试问谁有这能耐
方向盘不歪你轻松又自在
这种高难度的动作杂技也耍不来

左手把车开右手摸着奶
消除疲劳驾驶这是最好的依赖
荷尔蒙飚甩你油门接着踩
工作生活结合一起效率就是快

一心两用的人才不应被淘埋
把你这手教出来绝对发大财
这手绝活真不赖人人都喝彩
一边开车一边摸奶真是爽歪歪

强大的心理暗示帮你成功

强大的心理暗示，发现之，掌控之。

1、坚信定律

当你对某件事情抱着百分之一万的相信，它最后就会变成事实。

2、期望定律

期望定律告诉我们，当我们怀着对某件事情非常强烈期望的时候，我们所期望的事物就会出现。

3、情绪定律

情绪定律告诉我们，人百分之百是情绪化的。

即使有人说某人很理性，其实当这个人很有“理性思考问题的时候，也是受到他当时情绪状态的影响，“理性地思考”本身也是一种情绪状态。所以人百分之百是情绪化的动物，而且任何时候的决定都是情绪化的决定。

4、因果定律

任何事情的发生，都有其必然的原因。有因才有果。换句话说，当你看到任何现象的时候，你不用觉得不可理解或者奇怪，因为任何事情的发生都必有其原因。你今天的现状结果是你过去种下的因导致的结果。

5、吸引定律

当你的思想专注在某一领域的时候，跟这个领域相关的人、事、物就会被你吸引而来。

6、重复定律

任何的行为和思维，只要你不断的重复就会得到不断的加强。在你的潜意识当中，只要你能够不断地重复一些人、事、物，它们都会在潜意识里变成事实。

7、累积定律

很多年轻人都曾梦想做一番大事业，其实天下并没有什么大事可做，有的只是小事。一件一件小事累积起来就形成了大事。任何大成就或者大灾难都是累积的结果。

8、辐射定律

当你做一件事情的时候，影响的并不只是这件事情的本身，它还会辐射到相关的其他领域。任何事情都有辐射作用。

9、相关定律

相关定律告诉我们：这个世界上的每一件事情之间都有一定的联系，没有一件事情是完全独立的。要解决某个难题最好从其他相关的某个地方人手，而不只是专注在一个困难点上。

10、专精定律

专精定律告诉我们，只有专精在一个领域，这个领域才能有所发展。所以无论你做任何的行业都要把做该行业的最顶尖为目标，只有当你能够专精的时候，你所做的领域才会出类拔萃地成长。

11、替换定律

替换定律就是说，当我们有一项不想要的记忆或者是负面的习惯，我们是无法完全去除掉，只能用一种新的记忆或新的习惯去替换他。

12、惯性定律

任何事情只要你能够持续不断去加强它，它终究会变成一种习惯。

13、显现定律

显现定律就是说，当我们持续寻找、追问答案的时候，它们最终都必将显现。

14、需求定律

任何人做任何事情都是带有一种需求。尊重并满足对方的需求，别人才会尊重我们的需求。

下辈子，无论爱与不爱，都不会再见

我儿:

写这备忘录给你，基于三个原则：

(一）人生福祸无常，谁也不知可以活多久，有些事情还是早一点说好。

(二）我是你的父亲，我不跟你说，没有人会跟你说。

(三）这备忘录里记载的，都是我经过惨痛失败得回来的体验，可以为你的成长省回不少冤枉路。

以下，便是你在人生中要好好记住的事：

（一）对你不好的人，你不要太介怀，在你一生中，没有人有义务要对你好，除了我和你妈妈。至于那些对你好的人，你除了要珍惜、感恩外，也请多防备一点，因为，每个人做每件事，总有一个原因，他对你好，未必真的是因为喜欢你，请你必须搞清楚，而不必太快将对方看作真朋友。

（二）没有人是不可代替，没有东西是必须拥有。看透了这一点，将来你身边的人不再要你，或许失去了世间上最爱的一切时，也应该明白，这并不是什么大不了的事。

（三）生命是短暂的，今日你还在浪费着生命，明日会发觉生命已远离你了。因此，愈早珍惜生命，你享受生命的日子也愈多，与其盼望长寿，倒不如早点享受。

（四）世界上并没有最爱这回事，爱情只是一种霎时的感觉，而这感觉绝对会随时日、心境而改变。如果你的所谓最爱离开你，请耐心地等候一下，让时日慢慢冲洗，让心灵慢慢沉淀，你的苦就会慢慢淡化。不要过分憧憬爱情的美，不要过分夸大失恋的悲。

（五）虽然很多有成就的人士都没有受过很多教育，但并不等于不用功读书，就一定可以成功。你学到的知识，就是你拥有的武器。人，可以白手兴家，但不可以手无寸铁，谨记！

（六）我不会要求你供养我下半辈子，同样地我也不会供养你的下半辈子，当你长大到可以独立的时候，我的责任已经完结。以后，你要坐巴士还是Benz（奔驰），吃鱼翅还是粉丝，都要自己负责。

（七）你可以要求自己守信，但不能要求别人守信，你可以要求自己对人好，但不能期待人家对你好。你怎样对人，并不代表人家就会怎样对你，如果看不透这一点，你只会徒添不必要的烦恼。

（八）我买了十多二十年六合彩，还是一穷二白，连三奖也没有中，这证明人要发达，还是要努力工作才可以，世界上并没有免费午餐。

（九）亲人只有一次的缘分，无论这辈子我和你会相处多久，也请好好珍惜共聚的时光，下辈子，无论爱与不爱，都不会再见。

'You've got to find what you love,' Jobs says

2011-06-30T19:25:00.000+08:00

This is a prepared text of the Commencement address delivered by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios, on June 12, 2005.

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three stories.

The first story is about connecting the dots.

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?

It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.

And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.

It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:

Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating.

None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

My second story is about love and loss.

I was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation — the Macintosh — a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.

I really didn't know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me — I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.

I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.

During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.

I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.

My third story is about death.

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.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.

I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.

This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960's, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.

Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish." It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

Thank you all very much.

爱情就像乘法，有一方为零再怎么乘，结果都是零。

男人的爱是俯视而生，而女人的爱是仰视而生。如果情爱像座山，那么男人越往上走可以俯视的女人就越多，而女人越往上走可以仰视的男人就越少。

男人易被迷倒，女人易被蒙骗。最终导致男人跟着女人走，女人跟着骗子走。

我们最大的情敌，不是第三者，而生岁月。

美国研究想掳女人心就要吊高来卖

2011-02-16T20:37:00.002+08:00

（新加坡）联合晚报 (2011-02-16)

（纽约讯）情场如战场，想做万人迷，俘掳女人心，原来要懂得欲擒故纵、“吊高来卖”：美国研究发现，比起开门见山表示好感的人，态度含糊的男士更能吸引异性。
　　研究员测试47名女大学生，向她们讹称一群男生看过她们的facebook个人页面，并向她们展示其中四男的fb页面。然后研究员将女生分三组：告诉A组女生说，四男对她们很有好感；告诉B组女生说，四男觉得她们很普通；对C组女生则含糊其辞，没明确说出四男对她们的想法。
　　结果显示，A组女生较B组对四男有较大好感；但对四男最有兴趣的却是C组女生。专家指出，掩饰自己的心意，能激起对方的好奇心和兴趣。

Fuck like bunnies
Fuck like rabbits

>Of a male or female, to copulate readily, enthusiastically, vigorously, or all three. Based on the rapid rate of reproduction of rabbits.

>To continually have sex with no end

(To have sex TONS of times a day. Comes from the fact that bunnies reproduce at a more rapid rate than humans, and therefore they have lots of sex. This style of fucking can be found among sexaholics, and particularly among horny college students.)

if Chinese leaders considered the United States a declining power because of the financial crisis, they were wrong.

Mr. Gates said he hoped his talks with Chinese leaders would reduce the need for more American weaponry in the Pacific. He also said that if Chinese leaders considered the United States a declining power because of the financial crisis, they were wrong.

“I’ve watched this sort of cyclical view of American decline come around two or three times, perhaps most dramatically in the latter half of the 1970s,” Mr. Gates said. “And my general line for those both at home and around the world who think the U.S. is in decline is that history’s dustbins are filled with countries that underestimated the resilience of the United States.”

快乐（快乐星期天 - 星洲）

一颗心老是在游荡，在漂浮，老是心不在焉，漫无目的，发白日梦，就越不快了。
快乐，是专注眼前事物，是活在当下，是能够在眼前事物中找到乐趣，平静和启示。

快乐，是找到属于自己的人生，不再迷失。
快乐，是回家看两岁的孩子动作笨拙地学用汤匙吃饭。
快乐，是看着白发斑斑的父母含饴弄孙。
快乐，是把快乐建立在别人的快乐上，不是别人的痛苦上。
快乐是踏实，是问心无愧，开口可以说人话，心安理得。
快乐，是大风大浪后，终于有了一颗笃定的心，相信浩然之气充塞于天地之间，可以放心地，把自己交给老天爷。

DS SAMY VELLU who will be always remembered (source: Email circulation)

2010-12-24T00:47:00.002+08:00

Dato Seri Samy Vellu finally and officially resigned from his post as the longest MIC President ever, after leading the party for almost 31 years. The Malaysian Insider has its story, here . Frankly, I will miss him very much especially for all the funny quotes he made all these years. Like what our Prime Minister said in the 2010 Barisan Nasional Conference, “We will miss DS Samy Vellu because he add a lot of color … sometimes a bit too much color”. Therefore, as a token of appreciation, I just wanna share some of the more famous quotes ever made by the one and only, Samy Vellu.

1. Samy Velu quoted on Pos Laju:
"Besoh kirim, hari ini juga sampai"

2. On one TV news when he tried to say he felt very ashamed:
"Ini prekara sangat memalukan saya dan kemaluan saya sangat-sangat la besar"

3. Samy said in one of his “ceramah”:
"Kita akan bina satu jambatan wuntuk worang2 kampong di sini." Then one pakcik asked, "Datuk, sini takde sungai, buat apa bina jambatan?" And Samy gloriously replied, "Kalao takde sungai, kita bina sungai"

4. Samy's most favourite quote on the news for the decade is this:
"Toll naik sikit, banyak marah saya. You worang ingat semua ini toll saya punyer bapah punya kah!”

5. During water crisis:
"Semua worang diminta jangan membuang aiyerr!"

6. On social society's problem:
"Worang2 muda sekarang banyak suka hisap dade"

7. During blood donation's program at Sungai Siput:
"Marilah kita semua menderma dara"

8. His welcome speech in most of his functions:
"Selamat datang saudara-mara semua" (It should have been “saudara-saudari”)

9. During the height of the Al-Arqam's saga, he said in a press conference:
"Saya gumbira bahawa didapati tiada pemuda MIC terlibat dalam kes Arqam"

10. At an opening ceremony for a new building:
"Mempersilakan Datin Paduka Rafidah Aziz naik dari pentas wuntuk membuka kain"

And of course the world's greatest joke of all times:

"Kita akan bina roket pigi matahari." One of the reporter responded, "Tapi Datuk, matahari terlalu panas untuk didekati." Samy replied, "Itu tade masalah. Kita hantar waktu malam"

There you are folks. For DS Samy Vellu, we wish you all the best!

Quotes About Men That Every Man Should Live By (Askmen.com)

2010-12-18T16:49:00.000+08:00

Excerpt from http://www.askmen.com

No.10 John Kennedy
“A man does what he must -- in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers, and pressures -- and that is the basis of all human morality.”

Doing the right thing is not always easy, but the greatest of men understand the obligation to do it anyways. JFK may have faltered on this front with Marilyn Monroe and the 700 other presidential playmates, but maintaining complete morality is a tough process. This isn’t only for men who make decisions on foreign policy, the space race and oval office intercourse, but the everyday decisions as well. Do the right thing and don’t look back; a clear conscience is often underrated.

No.9 Chuck Norris
“Men are like steel. When they lose their temper, they lose their worth.”

A man can model his life solely on the Walker, Texas Ranger ethos, but for the purposes of diversity, we settled for just one Chuck Norris quote. This metallic metaphor reiterates the importance of self-control, and just how destructive your temper can be. Norris knows there’s nothing more pitiful than a father having a tantrum over a high strike at his son’s little league game. Losing your cool in the boardroom or on the sidelines, is perhaps the most devaluing of exercises. Thank you, sensei.

No.8 Albert Camus
“After a certain age every man is responsible for his face”

Camus’ quote from The Fall is in reference to the protagonist Clamence, a self-absorbed hypocrite who realizes his entire existence is a farce. Hopefully his face looks a lot different from yours. We’re all products of our pasts, and at a certain point “who we are” is a reflection of “what we’ve done.” And when you'd reach that age, you better be proud of the choices you’ve made and the actions you’ve committed, because you’re responsible for them. And if you make a few mistakes, there’s always botox.

No.7 Theodore Roosevelt
“Big jobs usually go to the men who prove their ability to outgrow small ones.”

The long and arduous path to the top of the totem pole is about proving yourself on the bottom. Underachievers always think they’ll start performing when they get the promotion to the bigger job, but they’re only fooling themselves. Jim from the compliance department may think he has the goods to get the corner office, but streaming reruns of Alf all day isn’t exactly outgrowing your current position.

No.6 George Washington
“Few men have virtue to withstand the highest bidder.”

A cynical quote from old GW, who was perhaps still bitter he didn’t accept the Brit’s offer to throw Valley Forge, but nonetheless, an insightful quote. Anyone can be bought, and only a select number of strong willed men are impervious to a price. There are two lessons here: One, a man should always strive to honor his principles no matter what the monetary offer may be. Two, if it’s $500,000 or more, make sure you get it in cash -- up front.

No.5 Oscar Wilde
“Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.”

It’s an old quote that’s revisited by Billy Crystal in When Harry Met Sally -- there’s no such thing as a platonic relationship between a man and a woman. The man is usually consumed with the idea of sleeping with her. It’s a belief widely acknowledged by men, but rarely accepted by women. Remember that. Movie and dinner nights might mean one thing to you, but she certainly doesn’t view it as a precursor to intercourse.

No.4 Machiavelli
“It is not titles that make men illustrious, but men who make titles illustrious.”

Though Machiavelli may have been directing this quote toward the reigning Medici Family in 16th century Florence, he knew it had relevance with the 21st century paper mill employee. Never be restricted or defined by your title, no matter who you are. You could be CEO or Junior Assistant Manager to the Traveling Secretary, but it’s only worth what you make it. If, however, you’re the latter of the two, you might want to explore other career opportunities in the meantime.

No.3 Plato
“When men speak ill of thee, live so as nobody may believe them.”

Criticism comes from all directions in life -- your spouse, your children, your colleagues. But in the end, it’s better to dismiss the ill will and maintain your own convictions. Plato is a perfect example. The basis of Western philosophy would not have existed if all the critics were justified with answers. But as for the concept of the “platonic relationship,” we still have our doubts.

No.2 Napoleon
“There is one kind of robber whom the law does not strike at, and who steals what is most precious to men: time.”

Whether you’re trying to claim world domination or simply take a road trip with your son, just know the greatest enemy of those plans is time. Life is short, unpredictable and you’re only given a small window of opportunity to complete your aspirations. Constant procrastination and indecisiveness is a sure way to be robbed of them. So quit putting off that coup d'état, and get your act together.

No.1 Bob Dylan
“A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.”

You have to do what makes you happy. It’s cliched, but a proven truth in life. It might not make you rich, but there’s nothing more valuable than waking up to do what you love. If you have an affinity for changing urinal cakes at the local Cracker Barrel, and that’s what brings you joy in life, all the power to you. And if you love touring the world, playing sold out arenas and being a cultural icon, that’s fine too.

The Social Network (2010) Movie Quotes

2010-12-16T21:29:00.000+08:00

Gage: Mr. Zuckerberg, do I have your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: [stares out the window] No.
Gage: Do you think I deserve it?
Mark Zuckerberg: [looks at the lawyer] What?
Gage: Do you think I deserve your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: I had to swear an oath before we began this deposition, and I don't want to perjure myself, so I have a legal obligation to say no.
Gage: Okay - no. You don't think I deserve your attention.
Mark Zuckerberg: I think if your clients want to sit on my shoulders and call themselves tall, they have the right to give it a try - but there's no requirement that I enjoy sitting here listening to people lie. You have part of my attention - you have the minimum amount. The rest of my attention is back at the offices of Facebook, where my colleagues and I are doing things that no one in this room, including and especially your clients, are intellectually or creatively capable of doing.
[pauses]
Mark Zuckerberg: Did I adequately answer your condescending question?

Eduardo Saverin: Sorry, my Prada is at the cleaners, along with my hoodie and my 'fuck you' flip-flops, you pretentious douche bag!

Erica Albright: You are probably going to be a very successful computer person. But you're going to go through life thinking that girls don't like you because you're a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won't be true. It'll be because you're an asshole.

Mark Zuckerberg: A guy who makes a nice chair doesn't owe money to everyone who has ever built a chair.

Erica Albright: As if every thought that tumbles through your head was so clever it would be a crime for it not to be shared.

Sean Parker: We lived in farms, then we lived in cities, and now we're gonna live on the internet!

Erica Albright: Dating you is like dating a Stairmaster.

Sean Parker: You know what's cooler than a million dollars?
Eduardo Saverin: You?
Sean Parker: A billion dollars.

Mark Zuckerberg: Ma'am, I know you've done your homework and so you know that money isn't a big part of my life, but at the moment I could buy Mt. Auburn Street, take the Phoenix Club and turn it into my ping pong room.

Marylin Delpy: What are you doing?
Mark Zuckerberg: Checking in to see how it's going in Bosnia.
Marylin Delpy: Bosnia. They don't have roads, but they have Facebook.
[Mark says nothing]
Marylin Delpy: You must really hate the Winklevosses.
Mark Zuckerberg: I don't hate anybody. The "Winklevii" aren't suing me for intellectual property theft. They're suing me because for the first time in their lives, things didn't go exactly the way they were supposed to for them.

Cameron Winklevoss: What, do you wanna hire an IP lawyer and sue him?
Divya Narendra: No, I wanna hire the Sopranos to beat the shit out of him with a hammer!

Mark Zuckerberg: Your date looks so familiar to me.
Sean Parker: She looks familiar to a lot of people.
Mark Zuckerberg: What do you mean?
Sean Parker: A Stanford MBA named Roy Raymond wants to buy his wife some lingerie but he's too embarrassed to shop for it at a department store. He comes up with an idea for a high end place that doesn't make you feel like a pervert. He gets a $40,000 bank loan, borrows another $40,000 from his in-laws, opens a store, and calls it Victoria's Secret. Makes a half million dollars his first year. He starts a catalog, opens three more stores and after five years he sells the company to Leslie Wexner and the Limited for four million dollars. Happy ending, right? Except two years later, the company's worth 500 million dollars and Roy Raymond jumps off the Golden Gate Bridge. Poor guy just wanted to buy his wife a pair of thigh highs.

Eduardo Saverin: Don't fish eat other fish? The marlins and the trouts!

Marylin Delpy: Every Creation has its Devil.

Mark Zuckerberg: You signed the papers.
Eduardo Saverin: You set me up.
Mark Zuckerberg: You're gonna blame me because you were the business head of the company and you made a bad business deal with your own company?
Eduardo Saverin: This is gonna be like I'm not a part of Facebook.
Sean Parker: It won't be like you're not a part of Facebook. You're not a part of Facebook.
Eduardo Saverin: My name's on the masthead.
Sean Parker: You might wanna check again.
Eduardo Saverin: This because I froze the account?
Sean Parker: Did you think we were going to let you parade around in your ridiculous suits thinking you were running this company?
Eduardo Saverin: [cutting him off] Sorry! My Prada's at the cleaners along with my hoodie and my 'fuck you' flip-flops, you pretentious douchebag!
Sean Parker: Security's here, you'll be leaving now.
Eduardo Saverin: I'm not signing those papers.
Sean Parker: We will get the signature.
Eduardo Saverin: Tell me this isn't about me getting into the Phoenix.
[Mark scoffs]
Eduardo Saverin: You did it, I knew you did it! You planted the story about me and the chicken.
Mark Zuckerberg: I didn't plant the story about the chicken.
Sean Parker: What's he talking about?
Eduardo Saverin: You had me accused of animal cruelty.
Sean Parker: Seriously, what the hell's the chicken?
Eduardo Saverin: And, I'll bet what you hated the most was that they identified me as a co-founder of Facebook, which I am. You better lawyer up, asshole, because I'm not just coming back for 30%, I'm coming back for everything.

Sean Parker: "You're going to hand them a business card saying, 'I'm CEO, bitch'"

Quotes from David Ogivly

2010-11-25T17:19:00.001+08:00

Develop your eccentricities while you are young. That way, when you get old, people won't think you're going gaga.

Don't bunt. Aim out of the ball park. Aim for the company of immortals.

First, make yourself a reputation for being a creative genius. Second, surround yourself with partners who are better than you are. Third, leave them to go get on with it.

Hire people who are better than you are, then leave them to get on with it. Look for people who will aim for the remarkable, who will not settle for the routine.

I avoid clients for whom advertising is only a marginal factor in their marketing mix. They have an awkward tendency to raid their advertising appropriations whenever they need cash for other purposes.

I don't know the rules of grammar... If you're trying to persuade people to do something, or buy something, it seems to me you should use their language, the language they use every day, the language in which they think. We try to write in the vernacular.

I have a theory that the best ads come from personal experience. Some of the good ones I have done have really come out of the real experience of my life, and somehow this has come over as true and valid and persuasive.

If each of us hires people who are smaller than we are, we shall become a company of dwarfs. But if each of us hires people who are bigger than we are, we shall become a company of giants.

If it doesn't sell, it isn't creative.

If you ever have the good fortune to create a great advertising campaign, you will soon see another agency steal it. This is irritating, but don't let it worry you; nobody has ever built a brand by imitating somebody else's advertising.

Leaders grasp nettles.

Many people - and I think I am one of them - are more productive when they've had a little to drink. I find if I drink two or three brandies, I'm far better able to write.

Much of the messy advertising you see on television today is the product of committees. Committees can criticize advertisements, but they should never be allowed to create them.

On the average, five times as many people read the headline as read the body copy. When you have written your headline, you have spent eighty cents out of your dollar.

Our business is infested with idiots who try to impress by using pretentious jargon.

The best ideas come as jokes. Make your thinking as funny as possible.

The pursuit of excellence is less profitable than the pursuit of bigness, but it can be more satisfying.

The secret of long life is double careers. One to about age sixty, then another for the next thirty years.

You now have to decide what 'image' you want for your brand. Image means personality. Products, like people, have personalities, and they can make or break them in the market place.

孙大伟（载自星洲 25112010）最好的吊祭，是怀念在心。

2010-11-25T17:04:00.000+08:00

我应该不会要告别式，因为我不喜欢麻烦别人，一般告别式的气氛都是乱糟糟，现场兵荒马乱的，我最好是静悄悄地走。告别式是留给活人看的，对一个人怀念在心里，就是最好的吊祭。

千万不要“活着不孝，死了乱叫”

广告大师奥格维（Ogilvy）名言，「活着的时候一定要快乐，因为死了以后的时间很长。」 (Be happy while you’re living, for you are a long time dead. ~ Scottish Proverb)

Quote of the Day

I'm a pessimist because of intelligence, but an optimist because of will. - Antonio Gramsci

博客妙语（from 星州）31 Oct

2010-10-31T12:37:00.000+08:00

学会放轻松 - 你没那么多观众，别那么累。

在人之上，要把人当人；在人之下，要把自己当人。

当你有选择的时候，不是选择正确的，而是选择不让你后悔的。

人生犹如一本书，愚蠢者草草翻过，聪明者细细阅读。

今天才知道什么是柏拉图式的爱情

2010-10-21T22:03:00.002+08:00

一天，柏拉图有问苏格拉底：什麽是爱情？
苏格拉底说：我请你穿越这片稻田，去摘一株最大最金黄的麦穗回来，但是有个规则：你不能走回头路，而且你只能摘一次。
於是柏拉图去做了。许久之后，他却空著双手回来了。
苏格拉底问他怎麽空手回来了？
柏拉图说道：当我走在田间的时候，曾看到过几株特别大特别灿烂的麦穗，可是，我总想著前面也许会有更大更好的，於是就没有摘；但是，我继续走的时候，看到的麦穗，总觉得还不如先前看到的好，所以我最后什麽都没有摘到。。。
苏格拉底意味深长地说：这，就是爱情。

又一天，柏拉图问苏格拉底：什麽是婚姻？
苏格拉底说：我请你穿越这片树林，去砍一棵最粗最结实的树回来好放在屋子里做圣诞树，但是有个规则：你不能走回头路，而且你只能砍一次。
於是柏拉图去做了。许久之后，他带了一棵并不算最高大粗壮却也不算赖的树回来了。
苏格拉底问他怎麽只砍了这样一棵树回来？
柏拉图说道：当我穿越树林的时候，看到过几棵非常好的树，这次，我吸取了上次摘麦穗的教训，看到这棵树还不错，就选它了，我怕我不选它，就又会错过了砍树的机会而空手而归，尽管它并不是我碰见的最棒的一棵。
这时，苏格拉底意味深长地说：这，就是婚姻。

还有一次，柏拉图问苏格拉底：什麽是幸福？
苏格拉底说：我请你穿越这片田野，去摘一朵最美丽的花，但是有个规则：你不能走回头路，而且你只能摘一次。
於是柏拉图去做了。许久之后，他捧著一朵比较美丽的花回来了。
苏格拉底问他：这就是最美丽的花了？
柏拉图说道：当我穿越田野的时候，我看到了这朵美丽的花，我就摘下了它，并认定了它是最美丽的，而且，当我后来又看见很多很美丽的花的时候，我依然坚持著我这朵最美的信念而不再动摇。所以我把最美丽的花摘来了。
这时，苏格拉底意味深长地说：这，就是幸福。

柏拉图又有一天又问老师苏格拉底什么是外遇
苏格拉底还是叫他到树林走一次
可以来回走
在途中要取一支最好看的花
柏拉图又充满信心地出去
两个小时之后，他精神抖擞地带回了一支颜色艳丽但稍稍焉掉的花，
苏格拉底问他：“这就是最好的花吗？”
柏拉图回答老师：
“我找了两小时，发觉这是最盛开最美丽的花，但我采下带回来的路上，它就逐渐枯萎下来”
这时，苏格拉底告诉他：
“那就是外遇”

又有一天又问老师苏格拉底什么是生活
苏格拉底还是叫他到树林走一次
可以来回走
在途中要取一支最好看的花
柏拉图有了以前的教训
又充满信心地出去
过了三天三夜，他也没有回来。
苏格拉底只好走进树林里去找他，最后发现柏拉图已在树林里安营扎寨。
苏格拉底问他：“你找着最好看的花么？”
柏拉图指着边上的一朵花说：“这就是最好看的花吗。”
苏格拉底问：“为什么不把它带出去呢？”
柏拉图回答老师：
“我如果把它摘下来，它马上就枯萎。即使我不摘它，它也迟早会枯。所以我就在它还盛开的时候，住在它边上。等它凋谢的时候，再找下一朵。这已经是我找着的第二朵最好看的花。”
这时，苏格拉底告诉他：
“你已经懂得生活的真谛了”

看完这个你会有怎样的理解呢？
最容错过的是爱情。
经历过爱情的无奈之后，对于婚姻的态度就会发生很大的转变，会选择一个合适的，但不是最好的。
幸福就是在不断寻找中获得满足。
外遇看起来很美，但会凋零，最终一无所获。
生活就是不断地寻找幸福！

人生？

2010-10-19T22:35:00.000+08:00

1，人生最重要的不是努力，不是奋斗，而是抉择。
2，老板只能给一个位置，不能给一个未来。舞台再大，人走茶凉。
3，意外和明天不知道哪个先来。没有危机是最大的危机，满足现状是最大的陷阱。
4，所见所闻改变一生，不知不觉断送一生。
5，生意，可以掌控努力与投资，却无法掌控结果。人生得意时找出路，失意时才有退路，宝马都有备胎，您的人生呢？
6，世界上有多少有才华的失败者，世界上有很多高学历的无业游民-----是因为选择错误。
7，下对注，赢一次；跟对人，赢一世。
8，学识不如知识，知识不如做事，做事不如做人。
9，不识货，半世苦；不识人，一世苦。
10，生命不在于活得长与短，而在于顿悟的早与晚。
11，做人处事，待人接物：重师者王，重友者霸，重己者亡。
12，没有目标的人永远为有目标的人去努力。
13人生三阶段：比才华；比财力；比境界。
14，人若把自己框在一定的范围内，就容易限制了自己的思维和格局。
15，今天的优势会被明天的趋势代替，把握趋势，把握未来。
16，读万卷书不如行千里路，行千里路不如阅人无数，阅人无数不如名师指路。经师易得，人师难求。
17，学历代表过去，财力代表现在，学习力代表将来。
18，人生能走多远，看与谁同行；有多大成就，看有谁指点。
19，聪明的人看得懂，精明的人看得准，高明的人看得远。
20，做人不成功，成功是暂时的；做人成功，不成功也是暂时的。记住

再烦，也别忘微笑；
再急，也要注意语气；
再苦，也别忘坚持；
再累，也要爱自己。

低调做人，你会一次比一次稳健；
高调做事，你会一次比一次优秀。

成功的时候不要忘记过去；
失败的时候不要忘记还有未来。

有望得到的要努力，
无望得到的不介意，
则无论输赢姿态都会好看。

生活不是单行线，
一条路走不通，
你可以转弯。

泪水和汗水的化学成分相似，
但前者只能为你换来同情，
后者却可以为你赢的成功。

变老是人生的必修课，变成熟是选修课。

以锻炼为本，学会健康；
以修进为本，学会求知；
以进德为本，学会做人；
以适应为本，学会生存。

人生四项基本原则：-
懂得选择，
学会放弃，
耐得住寂寞，
经得起诱惑。

有人都低调的时候，你可以高调，但不能跑调。

学会忘记是生活的技术，
学会微笑是生活的艺术。

什么是好工作：
一. 不影响生活作息，
二. 不影响家庭团聚，
三能养家糊口。

懒惰像生锈一样，比操劳更消耗身体。

让梦想成真的最好办法就是醒来。

哲人无忧，智者常乐。

并不是因为所爱的一切他都拥有了，而是所拥有的一切他都爱。
