“Pay close attention. This is your life.”
请密切留意,这就是你的生活
—Professor Deborah Pope,
Department of English
“People always obsess over big decisions (e.g., which job/ position to accept), but really, tomorrow will always be a blur. Plan with calmness, and then take the leap in the direction you think is best, knowing that there will rarely be a ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ but just a choice that leads to the next steps of life.”
人们总是过于在意那些重要的决定 (比如接受什么样的工作或者职位) 但是实际上明天总是以确定的。用冷静的心计划,向你认为最好的目标大胆进发,让自己知道很少有所谓完全"正确"或是"错误"的决定,因为它们只不过都是一个让你的生命进入下一个阶段的决定。
—Professor Mohamed Noor,
Department of Biology
“You will get the more satisfaction about the relationships you form than from the things you acquire.”

“Respect people over job titles. Everyone’s life has meaning.”

“Learn to reframe rejection. Whether you’re working towards a leadership position or building a company, people will frequently tell you no. Instead of seeing it as a shutdown, look at it as an opportunity to figure out why. Are you asking the wrong person? Have you not yet demonstrated you can handle the new responsibility? Over time, ‘no’ becomes just another opportunity to wait, learn and try again.”
学会重新认识拒绝。当你处在一个领导者的位置或者建立一个公司的时候,人们会经常告诉你"不行"。但是与其把这个NO视为事情的结束,不如把它看作一个寻找原因的机会:你是不是找了错误的人? 你是不是还没有展现出你可以承担这个新责任? 时间过去,NO就会变成另一个等待,学习和尝试的机会
—Kathryn Minshew ’08,
Co-founder of The Muse
“Find a place where you can be challenged. Ask yourself: Am I proud of my work?”
找到一个可以挑战自己的地方。问自己:"我是否为我的工作感到自豪"
—Katie Smith,

“Don’t be afraid to diverge from your ‘plan.’ Embrace ambiguity. The uncertain and what may appear high risk in relationships, jobs and life is usually very cool and worthwhile.”
别害怕偏离你的计划。勇敢的接受不确定性。那些在你感情,工作和生活上表现出不确定性和高风险的东西往往都是很Cool而且很值得你尝试的
—Christopher Simmons,
Office of Federal Relations
“As you move forward into the next stage of your life, do not forget to stop and look back to discover the meaning of where you have been. That will help you better understand who you are, where you may be heading, and how you can get there.”
当你进入你人生的新阶段,别忘了停下来回头看看,去发现你过去经历的意义。它可以让你更好的了解你是谁,将到哪里去,如何去那里。
—David Steinbrenner,

“Never confuse being educated with being smart.”
别把受到教育这件事和聪明这件事混为一个概念
—Michael Evans,

“Be generous to other people.”
慷慨待人
—Nia-Malika Henderson ’96, National political reporter for The Washington Post
“Read outside of your chosen field, read broadly, read enthusiastically. Creativity is a necessary life skill and some inspirations will come from unexpected sources.”
广泛的阅读,热情的阅读。创造力是一个必需的生存技能,而一些灵感就来自于你没有期待的来源。
—Jan Little,
Sarah P. Duke Gardens
