“The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They’re there to stop the other people.”

— Randy Pausch, professor

「磚牆在那裡是有原因的,磚牆在那裡不是要擋住我們,磚牆在那裡是要給我們機會展現我們有多想要一件事。因為磚牆在那裡是要阻止不夠想要的那些人,它在那裡是要阻止其它人。」– 蘭迪‧鮑許 (大學教授)

  • brick (n.) 是「磚頭,磚塊」。keep out 是「擋住,隔開」。badly (adv.) 是「嚴重地,非常地」,如:The company is badly in need of some new staff. (這家公司非常需要新職員。)
