There's an academic tradition called the 'Last Lecture.' Hypothetically, if you knew you were going to die and you had one last lecture, what would you say to your students? Well, for me, there's an elephant in the room. And the elephant in the room, for me, it wasn't hypothetical.

  • -- Randy Pausch 兰迪·波许

有一个学术传统叫做“最后一课”。假设，如果你知道自己就要死了，而你还有最后一堂课，你会对你的学生说什么?对我来说，房间里有一头大象。房间里的大象，对我来说，这不是假设。

这是一种传统，你找一个新手，把他放在中间，用胳膊和腿抱住他，然后把你能弄到的所有东西都浇在他身上——刮胡膏，番茄酱，芥末，所有的东西。这有点像一个人成功后脸上的馅饼。
