   we have always been shameless about stealing great ideas,


  我从来不觉得借鉴别人的创意可耻
  and I think part of what made the Macintosh great was that people working on it were musicians, and poets and artists, and zoologists 1 and historians 2,
  Macintosh团队里有音乐家,有诗人、艺术家、动物学家、历史学家
  who also happened to be the best computer scientists in the world.
  这些人也懂计算机,所以Macintosh才这么出色
  But if it hadn't been computer science, these people would have all been doing amazing things in other fields,
  如果没有计算机,他们也会在其他领域造创奇迹
  and they all brought with them,
  大家各自贡献自己的专业知识
  we all brought to this effort a very liberal 3 arts sort of air, a very liberal arts attitude that we want to pull in the best that we saw in other fields into this field,
  Macintosh因此吸收了各个领域的优秀成果
  and I don't think you'll get that if you are very narrow.
  否则的话,它很可能是一款非常狭隘的产品
  One of the questions I asked everyone in the series was are you a hippie or a nerd?
  最后我问了一个规定问题:你是嬉皮士,还是书呆子?
  Oh if I had to pick one out of these two, I am clearly the hippie, all the people I work with were clearly that category too.
  如果必须二选一的话,我肯定是嬉皮士,我所有的同事都属于嬉皮士。
  Really?
  真的吗?
  Yeah.
  是的。
  Why? You seek out hippies? They are attracting to you?
  为什么?你有意招聘嬉皮士吗?他们吸引你?
  Well, ask yourself what's hippie?
  你觉得什么是嬉皮士?
  I mean this word has a lot of connotations,
  不同的人有不同的理解
  but to me, remember the 60's happens in the early 70's, we have to remember that,
  但是对我来说…60~70年代的嬉皮士运动给我留下了深刻印象
  that's sort when I came of age, so I saw a lot of these, and a lot of things happened in our backyard here.
  有些活动就是在我家后院举行的,嬉皮士运动启发了我
  So to me the spark 4 of that was that there was something beyond, sort of what you see every day,
  有些东西是超越日常忙碌琐碎的生活的
  there are something going on here in life beyond just a job, a family, 2 cars in the garage and a career.
  生活不仅仅是工作、家庭、财产、职业
  There's something more going on, there's another side of the coin,
  它更丰富,就像硬币还有另一面
  that we don't talk about much. and we experience when there are gaps 5,
  虽然大家嘴上不说,但在生活的间隙
  when we kind of aren't... when everything is not ordered or perfect and when there's a kind of gap, you experience this inrush of something,
  尤其是在不如意的时候,我们都能感受到某种冲动
