拉里·佩奇：當我12歲的時候，父母給我一本書尼古拉特斯拉的自傳，我想我長大後想成為一名發明家。我讀了這本書，這是你能想象到的最偉大的發明家——他是個類似邪惡的瘋狂的科學家。他製造了閃電，他製造了我們現在用來發電的東西，我們仍然使用特斯拉的設計來生產和分配電力。當我讀完他的人生故事時，我最後哭了：我意識到我們可以成為世界上最偉大的發明家，你也可能是個失敗者。你可能很難為你的發明提供資金，特斯拉努力將電力無線傳輸到各大洲，仍然不知道他到底在想什麼。如果能更好地資助他的研究，也許我們今天就能擁有他了。這不是不可能的。

When I was 12 or so， my parents actually gave me an autobiography of Tesla， actually refers to Nicola Tesla。 I thought I wanted to be an inventor when I grew up。 And I read this book this was the greatest inventor you can imagine him。 He was kind of evil mad scientist， he made lightning bolts and he made the things that we use for electric power now， we still use Tesla designs basically to generate and distribute our electric power。 You know once I finished reading the story of his life i basically cried at the end， because I realized like we could be this world‘s greatest inventor。 And you could basically be a failure right， you know you can have trouble funding your inventions， and is still not known exactly what he had in mind。 And it might be if he was better able to fund his research we would actually have that today。 That’s not unlikely probably。#拉里佩奇卸任谷歌母公司CEO##特斯拉#
