事情的结果并不会总如你所料。但你却会沿着人生这条不确定的小路拾得珍贵的经验。
But it also empowers those who would seek to do harm. When everyone has a voice, some raise their voices in hatred. When everyone can share, some share lies. And when everyone can organize, some organize against the things we value the most.
但是网络也同样为那些试图作恶者提供了力量。当人人都能够发声时，有些人却满怀仇恨大声喧嚣。当人人都能够与他人分享时，有些人却分享谎言。当人人都能够组织起来时，有些人却组织起来反对我们最珍视的东西。
The times in my life when I have learned the most have definitely been the hardest. That's when you will learn the most about yourself. You can almost feel yourself growing—you can feel the growing pains.
我生命中收获最多的时刻绝对是那些最艰难的时刻。正是在那些时刻你对自己有了最深刻的了解。你几乎能感觉到自己在成长——你能感受到成长的痛苦。
When you own your mistakes, you can work harder to correct them—and even harder to prevent the next ones.
当你承认自己的错误时，你就能更加努力地去纠正错误，甚至为了防止更多的错误而加倍努力。
It's not enough to be technologists—we have to make sure that technology serves people.
仅仅当技术专家是不够的——我们必须确保技术为人服务。
