Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
– Leo Buscaglia
太多次，我们低估了抚慰、微笑、善言、倾听、真心赞美，或是不经意关怀的力量，而这些，却往往能扭转他人的人生。

I think the biggest difference between Facebook and other companies is how focused we are on our mission（使命）…Different companies care about different things. There are companies that care about, just really care about having the biggest market cap（市值）. Or there are companies that are really into（喜好） process or the way they do things. Hewlett Packard（惠普）, right? The thing that you always hear about them is “the HP Way”. Google, I think is very tied to their culture–They really love that. For us, it is the mission: building a company that makes the world more open and connected.The articulation（发音） of that has, I think, changed over time（随着时间）. But that’s really been, like, the belief the whole time（一直）.

–Huffington Post, May 14, 2012
我认为Facebook与其他公司相比，最大的不同点在于：我们专注于自己的使命。不同的公司关注的事情各不相同。有的公司关注，应该说是相当关注，在资本市场拥有最大的市值。而有的则非常热衷于流程，或者说做事的方式。比方说惠普，对吧？你听到关于惠普最多的事情就是：“惠普之道”。至于谷歌，我觉得它相当关注公司文化–他们对此真的很着迷。对我们而言，我们最关注的是使命：创建一家使世界更加开放、连接更为紧密的公司。随着时间的推移，可能对于使命的文字表述有所不同，但这的确是我们一直以来深信不疑的理念。
