If you want to succeed, double your failure rate.
如果你想成功,就把你的失败率提高一倍吧。
─托马斯·沃森(Thomas J Watson,IBM公司创始人)
If you're not failing every now and again, it's a sign you're not doing anything very innovative.
如果你不是经常遇到挫折,这表明你做的事情没有很大的创新性。
─伍迪·艾伦(Woody Allen,美国电影艺术家)
A new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn; it can be stabbed to death by a joke or worried to death by a frown on the right person's brow.
新点子很脆弱。它可能被一次嘲笑或一个哈欠杀死,可能被一个玩笑刺死,或者因合适人选皱起眉头而忧虑致死。
─查尔斯·布劳尔(Charles Brower,美国已故探险家)
