When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog,
当我年轻的时候, 有一本叫做“整个地球的目录”振聋发聩的杂志，
which was one of the bibles of my generation.
它是我们那一代人的圣经之一。
It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park,
它是一个叫Stewart Brand的家伙在离这里不远的Menlo Park书写的,
and he brought it to life with his poetic touch.
他象诗一般神奇地将这本书带到了这个世界。
This was in the late 1960's,
那是六十年代后期,
before personal computers and desktop publishing,
在个人电脑和桌面印刷系统出现之前,
so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras.
所以这本书全部是用打字机,、剪刀还有偏光镜制造的。
It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along:
有点像用软皮包装的google, 在google出现三十五年之前：
it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.
这是理想主义的， 其中有许多灵巧的工具和伟大的想法。
Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog,
斯图尔特和他的伙伴出版了几期的“整个地球的目录”,
and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue.
当它完成了自己使命的时候, 他们做出了最后一期的目录。
It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age.
那是在七十年代的中期, 我也就是你们现在的年纪。
On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road,
在最后一期的封底上是清晨乡村公路的照片
the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous.
如果你有冒险精神的话，你可以自己找到这条路的。
Beneath it were the words: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish."
在照片之下有这样一段话：“保持饥饿,保持愚蠢。”
It was their farewell message as they signed off.
这是他们停止了发刊的告别语。
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
保持饥饿,保持愚蠢
And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.
我总是希望自己能够那样,现在, 在你们即将毕业，开始新的旅程的时候, 我也希望你们能这样：
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
保持饥饿，保持愚蠢。
Thank you all very much.
非常感谢你们。
