1、朱棣文在哈佛大学毕业典礼英语演讲稿Madam President Faust, members f the Harvard Crpratin and the Bard f verseers,faculty, family, friends, and, mst imprtantly, tdays graduates,尊敬的Faust校长，哈佛集团的各位成员，监管理事会的各位理事，各位老师，各位家长，各位朋友，以及最重要的各位毕业生同学，Thank yu fr letting me share this wnderful day with yu.感谢你们，让我有机会同你们一起分享这个美妙的日子。I

2、 am nt sure I can live up t the high standards f Harvard Cmmencement speakers. Lastyear, J.K. Rwling, the billinaire nvelist, wh started as a classics student, graced thispdium. The year befre, Bill Gates, the mega-billinaire philanthrpist and cmputer nerdstd here. Tday, sadly, yu have me. I am nt w

3、ealthy, but at least I am a nerd.我不太肯定，自己够得上哈佛大学毕业典礼演讲人这样的殊荣。去年登上这个讲台的是，英国亿万身家的小说家J.K. Rwling女士，她最早是一个古典文学的学生。前年站在这里的是比尔盖茨先生，他是一个超级富翁、一个慈善家和电脑高手。今年很遗憾，你们的演讲人是我，虽然我不是很有钱，但是至少我也算一个高手。I am grateful t receive an hnrary degree frm Harvard, an hnr that means mre t methan yu might care t imagine. Yu see, I

4、 was the academic black sheep f my family. Mylder brther has an M.D./Ph.D. frm MIT and Harvard while my yunger brther has a lawdegree frm Harvard. When I was awarded a Nbel Prize, I thught my mther wuld besatisfied. Nt s. When I called her n the mrning f the annuncement, she replied, Thatsnice, but

5、when are yu ging t visit me net. Nw, as the last brther with a degree frmHarvard, maybe, at last, she will be satisfied.我很感激哈佛大学给我荣誉学位，这对我很重要，也许比你们会想到的还要重要。要知道，在学术上，我是我们家的不肖之子。我的哥哥在麻省理工学院得到医学博士，在哈佛大学得到哲学博士;我的弟弟在哈佛大学得到一个法律学位。我本人得到诺贝尔奖的时候，我想我的妈妈会高兴。但是，我错了。消息公布的那天早上，我给她打电话，她听了只说：这是好消息，不过我想知道，你下次什么时候来看我

6、?如今在我们兄弟当中，我最终也拿到了哈佛学位，我想这一次，她会感到满意。Anther difficulty with giving a Harvard cmmencement address is that sme f yu maydisapprve f the fact that I have brrwed material frm previus speeches. I ask that yufrgive me fr tw reasns.在哈佛大学毕业典礼上发表演讲，还有一个难处，那就是你们中有些人可能有意见，不喜欢我重复前人演讲中说过的话。我要求你们谅解我，因为两个理由。First, i

7、n rder t have impact, it is imprtant t deliver the same message mre than nce. Inscience, it is imprtant t be the first persn t make a discvery, but it is even mre imprtantt be the last persn t make that discvery.首先，为了产生影响力，很重要的方法就是重复传递同样的信息。在科学中，第一个发现者是重要的，但是在得到公认前，最后一个将这个发现重复做出来的人也许更重要。Secnd, authr

8、s wh brrw frm thers are fllwing in the ftsteps f the best. Ralph WaldEmersn, wh graduated frm Harvard at the age f 18, nted All my best thughts werestlen by the ancients. Picass declared Gd artists brrw. Great artists steal.encement speakers be held t a higher standard?其次，一个借鉴他人的作者，正走在一条前人开辟的最佳道路上。哈

9、佛大学毕业生、诗人爱默生曾经写下：古人把我比较好的一些思想都偷走了。画家毕加索宣称优秀的艺术家借鉴，伟大的艺术家偷窃。那么为什么毕业典礼的演说者，就不适用同样的标准呢?I als want t pint ut the irny f speaking t graduates f an institutin that wuld haverejected me, had I the chutzpah t apply. I am married t Dean Jean, the frmer dean fadmissins at Stanfrd. She assures me that she wuld

10、 have rejected me, if given the chance.When I shwed her a draft f this speech, she bjected strngly t my use f the wrdrejected. She never rejected applicants; her letters stated that we are unable t ffer yuadmissin. I have difficulty understanding the difference. After all, deans f admissins fhighly

11、selective schls are in reality, deans f rejectin. Clearly, I have a lt t learn abutmarketing.我还要指出一点，向哈佛毕业生发表演说，对我来说是有讽刺意味的，因为如果当年我斗胆向哈佛大学递交入学申请，一定会被拒绝。我的妻子Jean当过斯坦福大学的招生主任，她向我保证，如果当年我申请斯坦福大学，她会拒绝我。我把这篇演讲的草稿给她过目，她强烈反对我使用拒绝这个词，她从来不拒绝任何申请者。在拒绝信中，她总是写：我们无法提供你入学机会。我分不清两者到底有何差别。在我看来，那些大热门学校的招生主任与其称为准许你入学

12、的主任，还不如称为拒绝你入学的主任。很显然，我需要好好学学怎么来推销自己。My address will fllw the classical snata frm f cmmencement addresses. The firstmvement, just presented, were light-hearted remarks. Thinsists funslicited advice, which is rarely valued, seldm remembered, never fllwed. As scar Wildesaid, The nly thing t d with gd

13、advice is t pass it n. It is never f any use t neself.S, here cmes the advice. First, every time yu celebrate an achievement, be thankful tthse wh made it pssible. Thank yur parents and friends wh supprted yu, thank yurprfessrs wh were inspiratinal, and especially thank the ther prfessrs whse less-t

14、han-brilliant lectures frced yu t teach yurself. Ging frward, the ability t teach yurself is thehallmark f a great liberal arts educatin and will be the key t yur success. T yur fellwstudents wh have added immeasurably t yur educatin during thse late night discussins,hug them. Als, f curse, thank Ha

15、rvard. Shuld yu frget, theres an alumni assciatin tremind yu. Secnd, in yur future life, cultivate a generus spirit. In all negtiatins, dntbargain fr the last, little advantage. Leave the change n the table. In yur cllabratins,always remember that credit is nt a cnserved quantity. In a successful cl

16、labratin,everybdy gets 90 percent f the credit.毕业典礼演讲都遵循古典奏鸣曲的结构，我的演讲也不例外。刚才是第一乐章-轻快的闲谈。接下来的第二乐章是送上门的忠告。这样的忠告很少被重视，几乎注定被忘记，永远不会被实践。但是，就像王尔德说的：对于忠告，你所能做的，就是把它送给别人，因为它对你没有任何用处。所以，下面就是我的忠告。第一，取得成就的时候，不要忘记前人。要感谢你的父母和支持你的朋友，要感谢那些启发过你的教授，尤其要感谢那些上不好课的教授，因为他们迫使你自学。从长远看，自学能力是优秀的文理教育中必不可少的，将成为你成功的关键。你还要去拥抱你的同

17、学，感谢他们同你进行过的许多次彻夜长谈，这为你的教育带来了无法衡量的价值。当然，你还要感谢哈佛大学。不过即使你忘了这一点，校友会也会来提醒你。第二，在你们未来的人生中，做一个慷慨大方的人。在任何谈判中，都把最后一点点利益留给对方。不要把桌上的钱都拿走。在合作中，要牢记荣誉不是一个守恒的量。成功合作的任何一方，都应获得全部荣誉的%。Jimmy Stewart, as Elwd P. Dwd in the mvie Harvey gt it eactly right. He said: Yearsag my mther used t say t me, In this wrld, Elwd, yu

18、 must be . she always used tcall me Elwd . in this wrld, Elwd, yu must be h s smart r h s pleasant. Well, fryears I was smart. . I recmmend pleasant. Yu may qute me n that.电影Harvey中，Jimmy Stewart扮演的角色Elwd P. Dwd，就完全理解这一点。他说：多年前，母亲曾经对我说，Elwd，活在这个世界上，你要么做一个聪明人，要么做一个好人。我做聪明人，已经做了好多年了。.但是，我推荐你们做好人。你们可以引

19、用我这句话。My third piece f advice is as fllws: As yu begin this new stage f yur lives, fllw yurpassin. If yu dnt have a passin, dnt be satisfied until yu find ne. Life is t shrt tg thrugh it withut caring deeply abut smething. When I was yur age, I was incrediblysingle-minded in my gal t be a physicist.

20、 After cllege, I spent eight years as a graduatestudent and pstdc at Berkeley, and then nine years at Bell Labs. During that my time, mycentral fcus and prfessinal jy was physics.我的第三个忠告是，当你开始生活的新阶段时，请跟随你的爱好。如果你没有爱好，就去找，找不到就不罢休。生命太短暂，如果想有所成，你必须对某样东西倾注你的深情。我在你们这个年龄，是超级的一根筋，我的目标就是非成为物理学家不可。本科毕业后，我在加州大

21、学伯克利分校又待了8年，读完了研究生，做完了博士后，然后去贝尔实验室待了9年。在这些年中，我关注的中心和职业上的全部乐趣，都来自物理学。Here is my final piece f advice. Pursuing a persnal passin is imprtant, but it shuld nt beyur nly gal. When yu are ld and gray, and lk back n yur life, yu will want t be prudf what yu have dne. The surce f that pride wnt be the thin

22、gs yu have acquired r therecgnitin yu have received. It will be the lives yu have tuched and the difference yuhave made.我还有最后一个忠告，就是说兴趣爱好固然重要，但是你不应该只考虑兴趣爱好。当你白发苍苍、垂垂老矣、回首人生时，你需要为自己做过的事感到自豪。你的物质生活和得到的承认，都不会产生自豪。只有那些你出手相助、被你改变过的人和事，才会让你产生自豪。After nine years at Bell labs, I decided t leave that warm, c

23、zy ivry twer fr what Icnsidered t be the real wrld, a university. Bell Labs, t qute what was said abut MaryPppins, was practically perfect in every way, but I wanted t leave behind smething mrethan scientific articles. I wanted t teach and give birth t my wn set f scientific children.在贝尔实验室待了9年后，我决定

24、离开这个温暖舒适的象牙塔，走进我眼中的真实世界大学。我对贝尔实验室的看法，就像别人形容电影Mary Pppins的话，实际上完美无缺。但是，我想为世界留下更多的东西，不只是科学论文。我要去教书，培育我自己在科学上的后代。Ted Geballe, a friend and distinguished clleague f mine at Stanfrd, wh als went frmBerkeley t Bell Labs t Stanfrd years earlier, described ur mtives best:我在斯坦福大学有一个好友兼杰出同事Ted Geballe。他也是从伯克利

25、分校去了贝尔实验室，几年前又离开贝尔实验室去了斯坦福大学。他对我们的动机做出了最佳描述：The best part f wrking at a university is the students. They cme in fresh, enthusiastic,pen t ideas, unscarred by the battles f life. They dnt realize it, but theyre the recipients fthe best ur sciety can ffer. If a mind is ever free t be creative, thats t

26、he time. They cmein believing tetbks are authritative, but eventually they figure ut that tetbks andprfessrs dnt knw everything, and then they start t think n their wn. Then, I beginlearning frm them.在大学工作，最大的优点就是学生。他们生机勃勃，充满热情，思想自由，还没被生活的重压改变。虽然他们自己没有意识到，但是他们是这个社会中你能找到的最佳受众。如果生命中曾经有过思想自由和充满创造力的时期，那

27、么那个时期就是你在读大学。进校时，学生们对课本上的一字一句毫不怀疑，渐渐地，他们发现课本和教授并不是无所不知的，于是他们开始独立思考。从那时起，就是我开始向他们学习了。My students, pst dctral fellws, and the yung researchers wh wrked with me at Bell Labs,Stanfrd, and Berkeley have been etrardinary. ver 30 frmer grup members are nwprfessrs, many at the best research institutins in t

28、he wrld, including Harvard. I havelearned much frm them. Even nw, in rare mments n weekends, the remaining members fmy biphysics grup meet with me in the ether wrld f cyberspace.我教过的学生、带过的博士后、合作过的年轻同事，都非常优秀。他们中有30多人，现在已经是教授了。他们所在某个单位的研究机构有不少是全世界第一流的，其中就包括哈佛大学。我从他们身上学到了很多东西。即使现在，我偶尔还会周末上网，向现在还从事生物物理学

29、研究的学生请教。I began teaching with the idea f giving back; I received mre than I gave. This brings me tthe final mvement f this speech. It begins with a stry abut an etrardinary scientificdiscvery and a new dilemma that it pses. Its a call t arms and abut making a difference.我怀着回报社会的想法，开始了教学生涯。我的一生中，得到的多

30、于我付出的，所以我要回报社会。这就引出了这次演讲的最后一个乐章。首先我要讲一个了不起的科学发现，以及由此带来的新挑战。它是一个战斗的号令，到了做出改变的时候了。In the last several decades, ur climate has been changing. Climate change is nt new: theEarth went thrugh si ice ages in the past 600,000 years. Hwever, recent measurementsshw that the climate has begun t change rapidly.

31、 The size f the Nrth Plar Ice Cap in themnth f September is nly half the size it was a mere 50 years ag. The sea level which beenrising since direct measurements began in 1870 at a rate that is nw five times faster than itwas at the beginning f recrded measurements. Heres the remarkable scientific d

32、iscvery.Fr the first time in human histry, science is nw making predictins f hw ur actins willaffect the wrld 50 and 100 years frm nw. These changes are due t an increase in carbndiide put int the atmsphere since the beginning f the Industrial Revlutin. The Earth haswarmed up by rughly 0.8 degrees C

33、elsius since the beginning f the Revlutin. There isalready apprimately a 1 degree rise built int the system, even if we stp all greenhusegas emissins tday. Why? It will take decades t warm up the deep ceans befre thetemperature reaches a new equilibrium.过去几十年中，我们的气候一直在发生变化。气候变化并不是现在才有的，过去万年中就发生了6次冰河

34、期。但是，现在某个单位的测量表明气候变化加速了。北极冰盖在某月份的大小，只相当于50年前的一半。1870年起，人们开始测量海平面上升的速度，现在某个单位的速度是那时的5倍。一个重大的科学发现就这样产生了。科学第一次在人类历史上，预测出我们的行为对501某年后的世界有何影响。这些变化的原因是，从工业革命开始，人类排放到大气中的二氧化碳增加 了。这使得地球的平均气温上升了0.8摄氏度。即使我们立刻停止所有温室气体的排放，气温仍然将比过去上升大约1度。因为在气温达到均衡前，海水温度的上升将持续几十年。If the wrld cntinues n a business-as-usual path, t

35、he Intergvernmental Panel n ClimateChange predicts that there is a fifty-fifty chance the temperature will eceed 5 degrees by theend f this century. This increase may nt sund like much, but let me remind yu that duringthe last ice age, the wrld was nly 6 degrees clder. During this time, mst f Canada

36、 and theUnited States dwn t hi and Pennsylvania were cvered year rund by a glacier. A wrld 5degrees warmer will be very different. The change will be s rapid that many species, includingHumans, will have a hard time adapting. Ive been tld fr eample, that, in a much warmerwrld, insects were bigger. I

37、 wnder if this thing buzzing arund is a precursr.如果全世界保持现在某个单位的经济模式不变，联合国政府间气候变化专门委员会(IPCC)预测，本世纪末将有%的可能，气温至少上升5度。这听起来好像不多，但是让我来提醒你，上一次的冰河期，地球的气温也仅仅只下降了6度。那时，俄亥俄州和宾夕法尼亚州以北的大部分美国和加拿大的土地，都终年被冰川覆盖。气温上升5度的地球，将是一个非常不同的地球。由于变化来得太快，包括人类在内的许多生物，都将很难适应。比如，有人告诉我，在更温暖的环境中，昆虫的个头将变大。我不知道现在身旁嗡嗡叫的这只大苍蝇，是不是就是前兆。We

38、als face the specter f nnlinear tipping pints that may cause much mre severechanges. An eample f a tipping pint is the thawing f the permafrst. The permafrstcntains immense amunts f frzen rganic matter that have been accumulating frmillennia. If the sil melts, micrbes will spring t life and cause th

39、is debris t rt. Thedifference in bilgical activity belw freezing and abve freezing is smething we are allfamiliar with. Frzen fd remains edible fr a very lng time in the freezer, but nce thawed,it spils quickly. Hw much methane and carbn diide might be released frm the rttingpermafrst? If even a fra

40、ctin f the carbn is released, it culd be greater than all thegreenhuse gases we have released t since the beginning f the industrial revlutin. ncestarted, a runaway ur.我们还面临另一个幽灵，那就是非线性的气候引爆点，这会带来许多严重得多的变化。气候引爆点的一个例子就是永久冻土层的融化。永久冻土层经 过千万年的累积形成，其中包含了巨量的冻僵的有机物。如果冻土融化，微生物就将广泛繁殖，使得冻土层中的有机物快速腐烂。冷冻后的生物和冷冻

41、前的生物，它 们在生物学特性上的差异，我们都很熟悉。在冷库中，冷冻食品在经过长时间保存后，依然可以食用。但是，一旦解冻，食品很快就腐烂了。一个腐烂的永久冻土层，将释放出多少甲烷和二氧化碳?即使只有一部分的碳被释放出来，可能也比我们从工业革命开始释放出来的所有温室气体还要多。这种事情一旦发生，局势就失控了。The climate prblem is tnsequence f ur success. We depend n fssilenergy t keep ur hmes warm in the winter, cl in the summer, and lit at night; we us

42、e it ttravel acrss twn and acrss cntinents. Energy is a fundamental reasn fr the prsperitywe enjy, and we will nt surrender this prsperity. The United States has 3 percent f thewrld ppulatin, and yet, we cnsume 25 percent f the energy. By cntrast, there are 1.6billin peple wh dnt have access t elect

43、ricity. Hundreds f millins f peple still ck withtwigs r dung. The life we enjy may nt be within the reach f the develping wrld, but it iswithin sight, and they want what we have.气候问题是我们的经济发展在无意中带来的后果。我们太依赖化石能源，冬天取暖，夏天制冷，夜间照明，长途旅行，环球观光。能源是经济繁荣的基础，我 们不可能放弃经济繁荣。美国人口占全世界的3%，但是我们消耗全世界%的能源。与此形成对照，全世界还有亿人没

44、有电，数亿人依靠燃烧树枝和动物粪便来煮饭。发展中国家的人民享受不到我们的生活，但是他们都看在眼里，他们渴望拥有我们拥有的东西。Here is the dilemma. Hw much are we willing t invest, as a wrld sciety, t mitigate thecnsequences f climate change that will nt be realized fr at least 100 years? Deeply rted inall cultures, is the ntin f generatinal respnsibility. Paren

45、ts wrk hard s that their childrenwill have a better life. Climate change will affect the entire wrld, but ur natural fcus is nthe welfare f ur immediate families. Can we, as a wrld sciety, meet ur respnsibility tfuture generatins?这就是新的挑战。全世界作为一个整体，我们到底愿意付出多少，来缓和气候变化?这种付出至少在1某年内，都不会有明显效果。代际责任深深植根于所有文

46、化中。家长努力工作，为了让他们的孩子有更好的生活。气候变化将影响整个世界，但是我们的天性使得我们只关心个人家庭的福利。我们能不能把全世界看作一个整体?能不能为未来的人们承担起责任?While I am wrried, I am hpeful we will slve this prblem. I became the directr f theLawrence Berkeley Natinal Labratry, in part because I wanted t enlist sme f the bestscientific minds t help battle against clim

47、ate change. I was there nly fur and a half years,the shrtest serving directr in the 78-year histry f the Lab, but when I left, a number fvery eciting energy institutes at the Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley had been established.虽然我忧心忡忡，但是还是对未来抱乐观态度，这个问题将会得到解决。我同意出任劳伦斯-伯克利国家实验室主任，部分原因是我想招募一些世界上比较好的科学家，来

48、研究气候变化的对策。我在那里干了4年半，是这个实验室78年的历史中，任期最短的主任，但是当我离任时，在伯克利实验室和伯克利分校，一些非常激动人心的能源研究机构已经建立起来了。I am etremely privileged t be part f the bama administratin. If there ever was a timet help steer America and the wrld twards a path f sustainable energy, nw is the time. Themessage the President is delivering is

49、nt ne f dm and glm, but f ptimism andpprtunity. I share this ptimism. The task ahead is daunting, but we can and will succeed.能够成为奥巴施政团队的一员，我感到极其荣幸。如果有一个时机，可以引导美国和全世界走上可持续能源的道路，那么这个时机就是现在。总统已经发出 信息，未来并非在劫难逃，而是乐观的，我们依然有机会。我也抱有这种乐观主义。我们面前的任务令人生畏，但是我们能够并且将会成功。We knw sme f the answers already. There are

50、 immediate and significant savings in energyefficiency and cnservatin. Energy efficiency is nt just lw-hanging fruit; it is fruit lyingn the grund. Fr eample, we have the ptential t make buildings 80 percent mreefficient with investments that will pay fr themselves in less than 15 years. Buildingscn

51、sume 40 percent f the energy we use, and a transitin t energy efficient buildings willcut ur carbn emissins by ne-third.我们已经有了一些答案，可以立竿见影地节约能源和提高能源使用效率。它们不是挂在枝头的水果，而是已经成熟掉在地上了，就看我们愿不愿意捡起来。比 如，我们有办法将楼宇的耗电减少%，增加的投资在某年内就可以收回来。楼宇的耗电占我们能源消费的%，节能楼宇的推广将使我们二氧化碳的释放减 少三分之一。We are revving up the remarkable Ame

52、rican innvatin machine that will be the basis f anew American prsperity. We will invent much imprved methds t harness the sun, thewind, nuclear pwer, and capture and sequester the carbn diide emitted frm ur pwerplants. Advanced bi-fuels and the electrificatin f persnal vehicles make us less dependen

53、tn freign il.我们正在加速美国这座巨大的创新机器，这将是下一次美国大繁荣的基础。我们将大量投资有效利用太阳能、风能、核能的新方法，大量投资能够捕获和隔离电厂废气中的二氧化碳的方法。先进的生物燃料和电力汽车将使得我们不再那么依赖外国的石油。In the cming decades, we will almst certainly face higher il prices and be in a carbn-cnstrained ecnmy. We have the pprtunity t lead in develpment f a new, industrialrevlutin.

54、 The great hckey player, Wayne Gretzky, when asked, hw he psitins himself nthe ice, he replied, I skate t where the puck is ging t be, nt where its been. Americashuld d the same.在未来的几十年中，我们几乎肯定会面对更高的油价和更严厉的二氧化碳限制排放政策。这是一场新的工业革命，美国有机会充当领导者。伟大的冰上曲棍球选手Wayne Gretzky被问到，他如何在冰上跑位，回答说：我滑向球下一步的位置，而不是它现在某个单位

55、的位置。美国也应该这样做。The bama administratin is laying a new fundatin fr a prsperus and sustainableenergy future, but we dnt have all f the answers. Thats where yu cme in. In this address,I am asking yu, the Harvard graduates, t jin us. As ur future intellectual leaders, take thetime t learn mre abut whats a

56、t stake, and then act n that knwledge. As future scientistsand engineers, I ask yu t give us better technlgy slutins. As future ecnmists andplitical scientists, I ask yu t create better plicy ptins. As future business leaders, I askthat yu make sustainability an integral part f yur business.奥巴政府正在为美

57、国的繁荣和可持续能源，打下新的基础。但是我们无法为所有问题都找到答案。这就需要你们的参与。在本次演讲中，我请求在座各位哈佛毕业生加入我们。你们是我们未来的智力领袖，请花时间加深理解目前的危险局势，然后采取相应的行动。你们是未来的科学家和工程师，我要求你们给我们更好的技术方案。你们是未来的经济学家和政治学家，我要求你们创造更好的政策选择。你们是未来的企业家，我要求你们将可持续发展作为你们业务中不可分割的一部分。Finally, as humanists, I ask that yu speak t ur cmmn humanity. ne f the cruelestirnies abut cl

58、imate change is that the nes wh will be hurt the mst are the mst inncent:the wrlds prest and thse yet t be brn.最后，你们是人道主义者，我要求你们为了人道主义说话。气候变化带来的最残酷的讽刺之一，就是最受伤害的人，恰恰就是最无辜的人-那些世界上最穷的人们和那些还没有出生的人。The cda t this last mvement is brrwed frm tw humanists.这个最后乐章的完结部是引用两个人道主义者的话。The first qute is frm Martin

59、Luther King. He spke n ending the war in Vietnam in 1967,but his message seems s fitting fr tdays climate crisis:第一段引语来自马丁路德金。这是1967年他对越南战斗结束的评论，但是看上去非常适合用来评论今天的气候危机。This call fr a wrldwide fellwship that lifts neighbrly cncern beynd nes tribe, race,class, and natin is in reality a call fr an all-em

60、bracing and uncnditinal lve fr all mankind.This ft misunderstd, this ft misinterpreted cncept, s readily dismissed by theNietzsches f the wrld as a weak and cwardly frce, has nw becme an abslute necessityfr the survival f man . We are nw faced with the fact, my friends, that tmrrw is tday.We are cnf

61、rnted with the fierce urgency f nw. In this unflding cnundrum f life andhistry, there is such a thing as being t late.我呼吁全世界的人们团结一心，抛弃种族、肤色、阶级、国籍的隔阂;我呼吁包罗一切、无条件的对全人类的爱。你会因此遭受误解和误读，信奉尼采哲学的世人会认定你是一个软弱和胆怯的懦夫。但是，这是人类存在下去的绝对必需。.我的朋友，眼前的事实就是，明天就是今天。此刻，我们面临最紧急的情况。在变幻莫测的生活和历史之中，有一样东西叫做悔之晚矣。The final message

62、 is frm William Faulkner. n December 10th, 1950, his Nbel Prize banquetspeech was abut the rle f humanists in a wrld facing ptential nuclear hlcaust.第二段引语来自威廉福克纳。1950年某月某月，他在诺贝尔奖获奖晚宴上发表演说，谈到了世界在核战斗的阴影之下，人道主义者应该扮演什么样的角色。I believe that man will nt merely endure: he will prevail. He is immrtal, nt beca

63、use healne amng creatures has an inehaustible vice, but because he has a sul, a spirit capablef cmpassin and sacrifice and endurance. The pets, the writers, duty is t write abutthese things. It is his privilege t help man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him fthe curage and hnr and hpe and

64、pride and cmpassin and pity and sacrifice whichhave been the glry f his past.我相信人类不仅能忍耐，而且会获胜。人类是不朽的，这不是因为万物当中仅仅他会无穷尽的呼喊，而是因为他有一个灵魂，有同情心、牺牲精神和忍耐力。诗人和作家的责任就是写这些东西。他们的特权正是通过鼓舞人类，唤起人类原有的荣耀-勇气、荣誉、希望、自尊、怜悯之心和牺牲精神，去帮助人类学会忍耐。Graduates, yu have an etrardinary rle t play in ur future. As yu pursue yur privat

65、epassins, I hpe yu will als develp a passin and a vice t help the wrld in ways bthlarge and small. Nthing will give yu greater satisfactin.各位毕业生同学，你们在我们的未来中扮演举足轻重的角色。当你们追求个人的志向时，我希望你们也会发扬奉献精神，积极发声，在大大小小各个方面帮助改进这个世界。这会给你们带来最大的满足感。Please accept my warmest cngratulatins. May yu prsper, may yu help preserve and saveur planet fr yur children, and all future children f the wrld.最后，请接受我最热烈的祝贺。希望你们成功，也希望你们保护和拯救我们这个星球，为了你们的孩子，以及未来所有的孩子。
