The most popular and well-known translation is "thirst for knowledge, stupidity" or "thirst for knowledge, stupidity" Being hungry means always eager to learn new knowledge, and being stupid means always feeling that you are not smart enough and always keeping the spirit of learning from others with an open mind.
In a speech at Stanford in 2005, Jobs said: When I was young, there was a magazine called The Whole Earth Catalogue, which was one of the bibles of our generation. It was written by a man named Stuart Brand, who lives in Menlo Park not far from here. He magically brought this book into the world like a poem.
Stuart and his partners published several issues of the Global Catalogue. On the back cover of the last issue, there was a picture of a country road in the early morning. There is a paragraph under the photo: "Stay hungry and stay stupid." This is their farewell speech to stop publishing. "If you are thirsty for knowledge, you must be respectful." I always wish I could do it. Now, when you are about to graduate and start a new journey, I hope you can do the same:
Stay hungry. Stay stupid. This is the origin of what Jobs called "staying hungry". Silly. 1972 The back cover of the last issue of the Whole Earth Catalogue. This magazine won the National Book Award with 1972, which is the first catalogue magazine to win this honor.
Explain that you need to have a beginner's mentality to look at new things. We need a combination of self-confidence and curiosity. It is an opportunism rooted in our nature and an optimistic attitude. Up to now, I haven't died because of my stupidity. Let's continue to carry forward this spirit. Let's take the risk together.
This sentence means that our knowledge is never enough, and we need to do something about it. With this mentality, you will open your heart to explore. It also means that you have to put aside the explanations given to you by social structure and ideology.
