"We didn't know much about each other twenty years ago. We were guided by our intuition; you swept me off my feet.

It was snowing when we got married at the Ahwahnee.Years passed, kids came, good times, hard times, but never bad times. Our love and respect has endured and grown.

We've been through so much together and here we are right back where we started 20 years ago—older, wiser—with wrinkles on our faces and hearts.

We now know many of life's joys, sufferings, secrets and wonders and were still here together. My feet have never returned to the ground."

—— From Steve Jobs

20年前我们相知不多。我们跟着感觉走，你让我着迷得飞上了天。

当我们在阿瓦尼举行婚礼时天在下雪。很多年过去了，有了孩子们，有美好的时候，有艰难的时候，但从来没有过糟糕的时候。我们的爱和尊敬经历了时间的考验而且与日俱增。

我们一起经历了那么多，现在我们回到20年前开始的地方——老了，也更有智慧了——我们的脸上和心上都有了皱纹。

我们现在了解了很多生活的欢乐、痛苦、秘密和奇迹，我们依然在一起。我的双脚从未落回地面。

——《乔布斯传》 译本
