If you stand up and be counted, from time to time you may get yourself knocked down. But remember this: A man flattened by an opponent can get up again. A man flattened by conformity stays down for good.

  • -- Thomas John Watson, Sr. Thomas John Watson,高级

如果你站起来被计数,你可能会不时地被击倒。但请记住:一个被对手击倒的人可以重新站起来。一个被从众心理压扁的人会永远消沉下去。
