世界成功人士演讲篇1：奥巴马
Nong hao! Good afternoon. It is a great honor for me to be here in Shanghai, and to have this opportunity to speak with all of you. I'd like to thank Fudan University's President Yang for his hospitality and his gracious welcome. I'd also like to thank our outstanding Ambassador, Jon Huntsman, who exemplifies the deep ties and respect between our nati ons. I don't know what he said, but I hope it was good. (Laughter.)
侬好!诸位下午好。我感到很荣幸能够有机会到上海跟你们交谈，我要感谢复旦大学的杨校长，感谢他的款待和热情的欢迎。我还想感谢我们出色的大使洪博培，他是我们两国间深厚的纽带。我不知道他刚才说什么，但是希望他说得很好。
What I'd like to do is to make some opening comments, and then what I'm really looking forward to doing is taking questions, not only from students who are in the audience, but also we've received questions online, which will be asked by some of the students who are here in the audience, as well as by Ambassador Huntsman. And I am very sorry that my Chinese is not as good as your English, but I am looking forward to this chance to have a dialogue.
我今天准备这样，先做一个开场白，我真正希望做的是回答在座的问题，不但回答在座的学生问题，同时还可以从网上得到一些问题，由在座的一些学生和洪博培大使代为提问。很抱歉，我的中文远不如你们的英文，所以我期待和你们的对话。
This is my first time traveling to China, and I'm excited to see this majestic country. Here, in Shanghai, we see the growth that has caught the attention of the world -- the soaring skyscrapers, the bustling streets and entrepreneurial activity. And just as I'm impressed by these signs of China's journey to the 21st century, I'm eager to see those ancient places that speak to us from China's distant past. Tomorrow and the next day I hope to have a chance when I'm in Beijing to see the majesty of the Forbidden City and the wonder of the Great Wall. Truly, this is a nation that encompasses both a rich history and a belief in the promise of the future.
这是我首次访问中国，我看到你们博大的国家，感到很兴奋。在上海这里，我们看到了瞩目的增长，高耸的塔楼，繁忙的街道，还有企业家的精神。这些都是中国步入21世纪的迹象，让我感到赞叹。同时我也急切的要看到向我们展现中国古老的古迹，明天和后天我要到北京去看雄伟壮丽的故宫和令人叹为观止的长城，这个国度既有丰富的历史，又有对未来憧憬的信念。
The same can be said of the relationship between our two countries. Shanghai, of course, is a city that has great meaning in the history of the relationship between the United States and China. It was here, 37 years ago, that the Shanghai Communique opened the door to a new chapter of engagement between our governments and among our people.
而我们两国的关系也是如此，上海在美中关系的历史中是个具有意义的重大城市，在37年前，《上海公报》打开了我们两国政府和两国人民接触交往的新的篇章。
However, America's ties to this city -- and to this country -- stretch back further, to the earliest days of America's independence. In 1784, our founding father, George Washington, commissioned the Empress of China, a ship that set sail for these shores so that it could pursue trade with the Qing Dynasty. Washington wanted to see the ship carry the flag around the globe, and to forge new ties with nations like China. This is a common American impulse -- the desire to reach for new horizons, and to forge new partnerships that are mutually beneficial.
不过美国与这个国家的纽带可以追溯更久远的过去，追溯到美国独立的初期，乔治?华盛顿组织了皇后号的下水仪式，这个船成功前往大清王朝，华盛顿希望看到这艘船前往各地，与中国结成新的纽带。希望与中国开辟新的地平线，建立新的伙伴关系。
Over the two centuries that have followed, the currents of history have steered the relationship between our countries in many directions. And even in the midst of tumultuous winds, our people had opportunities to forge deep and even dramatic ties. For instance, Americans will never forget the hospitality shown to our pilots who were shot down over your soil during World War II, and cared for by Chinese civilians who risked all that they had by doing so. And Chinese veterans of that war still warmly greet those American veterans who return to the sites where they fought to help liberate China from occupation.
在其后的两个世纪中，历史洪流使我们两国关系向许多不同的方向发展，而即使在最动荡的方向中，我们的两国人民也打造了很深的，甚至有戏剧性的纽带，比如美国人永远不会忘记，在二战期间，美国飞行员在中国上空被击落后，当地人民对他们的款待，中国公民冒着失去一切的危险保护着他们。而参加二战的中国老兵仍然欢迎故地重游的美国老兵，他们在那里参战。
A different kind of connection was made nearly 40 years ago when the frost between our countries began to thaw through the simple game of table tennis. The very unlikely nature of this engagement contributed to its success -- because for all our differences, both our common humanity and our shared curiosity were revealed. As one American player described his visit to China -- "[The]people are just like us…The country is very similar to America, but still very different." Of course this small opening was followed by the achievement of the Shanghai Communique, and the eventual establishment of formal relations between the United States and China in 1979. And in three decades, just look at how far we have come.
40年前，我们两国间开启了又一种联系，两国关系开始解冻，通过乒乓球的比赛解冻关系。我们两国之间有着分歧，但是我们也有着共同的人性及有着共同的好奇，就像一位乒乓球人员所说的一样，那的国家就是一样，但是这个小小的开头带来了《上海公报》的问世，最终还带来了美中在1979年建交。在其后的30年我们又取得了长足的进展。
In 1979, trade between the United States and China stood at roughly billion -- today it tops over 0 billion each year. The commerce affects our people's lives in so many ways. America imports from China many of the computer parts we use, the clothes we wear; and we export to China machinery that helps power your industry. This trade could create even more jobs on bothsides of the Pacific, while allowing our people to enjoy a better quality of life. And as demand becomes more balanced, it can lead to even broader prosperity.
1979年中美贸易仅有500亿美元，而今天美中贸易已经接近4000亿美元。贸易在许多方面影响人民的生活，比如美国电脑中许多部件，还有穿的衣服都是从中国进口的，我们向中国出口中国工业要使用的机器，这种贸易可以在太平洋两岸创造更多的就业机会，让我们的人民过上质量更高的生活。
In 1979, the political cooperation between the United States and China was rooted largely in our shared rivalry with the Soviet Union. Today, we have a positive, constructive and comprehensive relationship that opens the door to partnership on the key global issues of our time -- economic recovery and the development of clean energy; stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and the scourge of climate change; the promotion of peace and security in Asia and around the globe. All of these issues will be on the agenda tomorrow when I meet with President Hu.
在需求趋于平衡的过程中，这种贸易可以是更广阔的贸易。如今我们有着积极合作和全面的关系，为我们在当前重大的全球问题上建立伙伴关系打开了大门，这些问题包括经济复苏、洁净能源的开发、制止核武器扩散以及应对气候变化。还有在亚洲及全球各地促进和平和稳定，所有这些问题我明天与胡锦涛同志会谈时都会谈到。
And in 1979, the connections among our people were limited. Today, we see the curiosity of those ping-pong players manifested in the ties that are being forged across many sectors. The second highest number of foreign students in the United States come from China, and we've seen a 50 percent increase in the study of Chinese among our own students. There are nearly 200 "friendship cities" drawing our communities together. American and Chinese scientists cooperate on new research and discovery. And of course, Yao Ming is just one signal of our shared love of basketball -- I'm only sorry that I won't be able to see a Shanghai Sharks game while I'm visiting.
1979年的时候，我们两国人民的联系十分有限。当年在乒乓球领域的好奇如今已延伸到许多领域，美国现在数量最多的留学生都来自中国。而在美国的学生中，学中文的人数增加了50%。我们两国有近200个友好城市，美中科学家在许多新的研究领域和发现领域进行合作。我们两国人民都热爱篮球，姚明就是个例子。不过，此行中我不能观看上海鲨鱼队的比赛，有点遗憾。
It is no coincidence that the relationship between our countries has accompanied a period of positive change. China has lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty -- an accomplishment unparalleled in human history -- while playing a larger role in global events. And the United States has seen our economy grow along with the standard of living enjoyed by our people, while bringing the Cold War to a successful conclusion.
我们两国之间的这种关系给我们带来了积极的变化，这并不是偶然的，中国使得亿万人民脱贫，而这种成就是人类历史上史无前例的。而中国在全球问题中也发挥更大的作用，美国也目睹了我们经济的成长。
There is a Chinese proverb: "Consider the past, and you shall know the future." Surely, we have known setbacks and challenges over the last 30 years. Our relationship has not been without disagreement and difficulty. But the notion that we must be adversaries is not predestined -- not when we consider the past. Indeed, because of our cooperation, both the United States and China are more prosperous and more secure. We have seen what is possible when we build upon our mutual interests, and engage on the basis of mutual respect.
中国有句古言，温故而知新。当然，我们过去30年中也遇到了挫折和挑战，我们的关系并不是没有困难的，没有分歧的。“但是我们必须一定是对手”的这种想法不应该是一成不变的。由于我们两国的合作，美中两国都变得更加繁荣、更加安全。我们基于相互的利益、相互的尊重就能有成就。
And yet the success of that engagement depends upon understanding -- on sustaining an open dialogue, and learning about one another and from one another. For just as that American table tennis player pointed out -- we share much in common as human beings, but our countries are different in certain ways.
不过，这种接触的成功要取决于我们要彼此了解，要能够进行开诚布公的对话，彼此进行了解。就像当年美国乒乓球运动员所说的，我们作为人有着共同的向往，但是我们两国又不同。
I believe that each country must chart its own course. China is an ancient nation, with a deeply rooted culture. The United States, by comparison, is a young nation, whose culture is determined by the many different immigrants who have come to our shores, and by the founding documents that guide our democracy.
我认为每个国家都应该勾画出自己要走的路，中国是一个文明古国，它有着博大精深的文化。相对而言，美国是一个年轻的国家，它的文化受到来自许多不同国家移民的影响，还受到我们民主制度文件的影响。
Those documents put forward a simple vision of human affairs, and they enshrine several core principles -- that all men and women are created equal, and possess certain fundamental rights; that government should reflect the will of the people and respond to their wishes; that commerce should be open, information freely accessible; and that laws, and not simply men, should guarantee the administration of justice.
我有一个非常简单的向往，代表了一些核心的原则，就是所有的人生来平等，都有着基本的权利，而政府应当反映人们的意志，贸易应该是开放的，信息流通应当是自由的，而法律要保证这个公平。
Of course, the story of our nation is not without its difficult chapters. In many ways -- over many years -- we have struggled to advance the promise of these principles to all of our people, and to forge a more perfect union. We fought a very painful civil war, and freed a portion of our population from slavery. It took time for women to be extended the right to vote, workers to win the right to organize, and for immigrants from different corners of the globe to be fully embraced. Even after they were freed, African Americans persevered through conditions that were separate and not equal, before winning full and equal rights.
当然，我们的国家历史也不是没有过困难的地方，从很多方面来讲，很多年以来，我们是通过斗争来促进这些原则或者使所有的人民能够享受到。为了缔造一个更完美的联合，我们也打过一个很痛苦的内战，把一部分我们被奴役的人口释放出来，经过一段时间才能使妇女有投票权，劳工有组织权，包括来自各地的移民能够全部被接受。即使他们被解放以后，非洲裔美国人也和美国人经过一些分开的、不平等的条件，经过一段时间才争取到全面的平等权利。
None of this was easy. But we made progress because of our belief in those core principles, which have served as our compass through the darkest of storms. That is why Lincoln could stand up in the midst of civil war and declare it a struggle to see whether any nation, conceived in liberty, and "dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal" could long endure. That is why Dr. Martin Luther King could stand on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and ask that our nation live out the true meaning of its creed. That's why immigrants from China to Kenya could find a home on our shores; why opportunity is available to all who would work for it; and why someone like me, who less than 50 years ago would have had trouble voting in some parts of America, is now able to serve as its President.
所有这些是不容易的。但是我们对这些核心原则的信念使我们取得了进展，在最黑暗的风暴当中作为我们的指南针。这是为什么林肯在内战期间站起来说过，任何一个国家以自由、以所有人类平等的原则能够长久的存在，也就是为什么金博士在林肯纪念馆的前台站起来，说我们国家要必须真正的实现我们的信念。也就是为什么来自中国或者肯尼亚的移民能够到我们的家，也是为什么一个不到50年前在某些地方连投票都遇到困难的人，现在就能够做到那个国家的总统。
And that is why America will always speak out for these core principles around the world.We do not seek to impose any system of government on any other nation, but we also don't believe that the principles that we stand for are unique to our nation. These freedoms of expression and worship -- of access to information and political participation -- we believe are universal rights. They should be available to all people, including ethnic and religious minorities -- whether they are in the United States, China, or any nation. Indeed, it is that respect for universal rights that guides America's openness to other countries; our respect for different cultures; our commitment to international law; and our faith in the future.
这就是为什么美国永远为了全世界各地的核心原则说话，我们不寻求把任何政治体制强制给任何国家，但是我们也不认为我们所支持的这些原则是我们国家所独有的，这些表达自由、宗教崇拜自由、接触信息的机会、政治的参与，我们认为这些是普世的权利，应该是所有人民能够享受到的，包括少数民族和宗教的族群，不管是在中国、美国和任何国家，对于普遍权利的尊敬，作为美国对其他国家的开放态度的指导原则，我们对其他文化的尊重，我们对国际法的承诺和对未来的信念的原则。
These are all things that you should know about America. I also know that we have much to learn about China. Looking around at this magnificent city -- and looking around this room -- I do believe that our nations hold something important in common, and that is a belief in the future. Neither the United States nor China is content to rest on our achievements. For while China is an ancient nation, you are also clearly looking ahead with confidence, ambition, and a commitment to see that tomorrow's generation can do better than today's.
所有这些都是你们知道关于美国的一些情况，我们有很多要从中国学习。我们看看这个伟大城市的各地，也看看这个房间，我就相信我们两国有很重要的共同点，也就是对未来的信念，不管是美国还是中国，对现在的成就不能感到自满。虽然中国是一个古老的国家，你们也是充满信心展望未来，致力于下一代能够比这一代做的更好。
In addition to your growing economy, we admire China's extraordinary commitment to science and research -- a commitment borne out in everything from the infrastructure you build to the technology you use. China is now the world's largest Internet user -- which is why we were so pleased to include the Internet as a part of today's event. This country now has the world's largest mobile phone network, and it is investing in the new forms of energy that can both sustain growth and combat climate change -- and I'm looking forward to deepening the partnership between the United States and China in this critical area tomorrow. But above all, I see China's future in you -- young people whose talent and dedication and dreams will do so much to help shape the 21st century.
除了你们不断增长的经济之外，我们很配合中国在科学和研究方面所投入的力量，包括建设的基础设施和使用的技术，中国是世界上使用互联网技术最多的国家，这就是我们很高兴互联网是今天活动的一部分，这个国家也拥有最大的移动电话网络，对新的投资保持继续增长，应对气候变化方面有新的投资，我也希望两国加强这方面的合作。但是更重要是看到年轻人你们的才能、你们的献身精神、你们的梦想在21世纪实现方面会发挥很大的作用。
I've said many times that I believe that our world is now fundamentally interconnected. The jobs we do, the prosperity we build, the environment we protect, the security that we seek -- all of these things are shared. And given that interconnection, power in the 21st century is no longer a zero-sum game; one country's success need not come at the expense of another. And that is why the United States insists we do not seek to contain China's rise. On the contrary, we welcome China as a strong and prosperous and successful member of the community of nations -- a China that draws on the rights, strengths, and creativity of inpidual Chinese like you.
我说过很多次，我认为世界是互相连接的，我们所做的工作，我们所建立的繁荣，我们所保护的环境，我们所追求的安全，所有这些都是共同的，而且是互相连接的，所以21世纪的实力不在零和游戏，一个国家成功不应该以另外一个国家的牺牲作为代价。这就是我们为什么不寻求遏制中国的崛起。相反，我们欢迎中国作为一个国际社会的强的、繁荣的、成功的成员。
To return to the proverb -- consider the past. We know that more is to be gained when great powers cooperate than when they collide. That is a lesson that human beings have learned time and again, and that is the example of the history between our nations. And I believe strongly that cooperation must go beyond our government. It must be rooted in our people -- in the studies we share, the business that we do, the knowledge that we gain, and even in the sports that we play. And these bridges must be built by young men and women just like you and your counterparts in America.
再回到刚才的谚语，我们应该考虑过去。在大的国家合作的时候，就比互相碰撞会取得更多的好处，这就是人类在历史上不断吸取的教训。我认为我们合作应该是超越政府间的合作，应该是以人民为基础的，我们所研究的内容、我们所从事的生意、我们所获得的知识、我们所进行的体育比赛……所有这些桥梁必须是年轻人共同合作建立起来。
That's why I'm pleased to announce that the United States will dramatically expand the number of our students who study in China to 100,000. And these exchanges mark a clear commitment to build ties among our people, as surely as you will help determine the destiny of the 21st century. And I'm absolutely confident that America has no better ambassadors to offer than our young people. For they, just like you, are filled with talent and energy and optimism about the history that is yet to be written.
这就是我为什么非常高兴我们要大大地宣布我们到中国学习的留学生人数，要增加到10万人。这样交流就会表现出我们是愿意致力于加强两国人民的联系，而且我是绝对有信心的。对美国来说，最好的大使、最好的使者就是年轻人，他们和你们一样，很有才能，充满活力，对未来的历史还是很乐观的。
So let this be the next step in the steady pursuit of cooperation that will serve our nations, and the world. And if there's one thing that we can take from today's dialogue, I hope that it is a commitment to continue this dialogue going forward.
这是我们合作的下一步，惠及两国和全世界。今天可以吸收的一个最重要的内容就是我们不断地向前推进。
So thank you very much. And I look forward now to taking some questions from all of you. Thank you very much. (Applause.)
世界成功人士演讲篇2：斯皮尔伯格
Thank you, thank you, President Faust, and Paul Choi, thank you so much.
非常感谢Faust校长、Paul Choi校长，谢谢你们。
It's an honor and a thrill to address this group of distinguished alumni and supportive friends and kvelling parents. We've all gathered to share in the joy of this day, so please join me in congratulating Harvard's Class of 2016.
非常荣幸能被邀请成为哈佛2016年毕业典礼的演讲嘉宾，在众位优秀的毕业生、热情的朋友和诸位家长前做演讲。今天让我们一起，祝贺2016届哈佛毕业生顺利毕业。
I can remember my own college graduation, which is easy, since it was only 14 years ago. How many of you took 37 years to graduate? Because, like most of you, I began college in my teens, but sophomore year, I was offered my dream job at Universal Studios, so I dropped out. I told my parents if my movie career didn't go well, I'd re-enroll.
我记得我自己的大学毕业典礼，这不难，因为就是14年以前的事情。你们当中的多少人花了37年才毕业?因为就像你们中的多数人，我在十几岁时进入大学，但是大二的时候我从环球影城获得了我的梦想工作，所以我休学了。我跟我的父母说，如果我的电影事业不顺，我会重新上学的。
It went all right.
我的电影事业发展得还行。
But eventually, I returned for one big reason. Most people go to college for an education, and some go for their parents, but I went for my kids. I'm the father of seven, and I kept insisting on the importance of going to college, but I hadn't walked the walk. So, in my fifties, I re-enrolled at Cal State - Long Beach, and I earned my degree.
但是我最后还是回到了学校，主要为了一个原因。很多人为了获得教育去上大学，有的人为了父母上大学，而我是为了我的孩子去上的。我是7个孩子的爸爸，我总是不断强调上大学的重要性，可我自己都没上过。所以在我50多岁的时候，我重新进入加州州立大学长滩分校，获得了学位。
I just have to add: It helped that they gave me course credit in paleontology for the work I did on Jurassic Park. That's three units for Jurassic Park, thank you.
我必须补充一点，我获得学位的一个原因是学校为我在《侏罗纪公园》里所做的，给我了考古学学分。《侏罗纪公园》换得了3个学分，非常感谢。
Well, I left college because I knew exactly what I wanted to do, and some of you know, too - but some of you don't. Or maybe you thought you knew but are now questioning that choice. Maybe you're sitting there trying to figure out how to tell your parents that you want to be a doctor and not a comedy writer.
我离开大学是因为我很清楚地知道我想要做什么。你们中的一些人也知道，但是有些人还没弄明白。或者你以为你知道，但是现在开始质疑这个决定。或者你坐在这里，试着想要怎么告诉你的父母，你想要成为一名医生，而不是喜剧编剧。
Well, what you choose to do next is what we call in the movies the 'character-defining moment.' Now, these are moments you're very familiar with, like in the last Star Wars: The Force Awakens, when Rey realizes the force is with her. Or Indiana Jones choosing mission over fear by jumping over a pile of snakes.
你接下来要做的事情，在我们这行叫做“定义角色的时刻”。这些是你非常熟悉的场景，例如在最近的一部《星球大战：原力觉醒》里女主角Rey发现自己拥有原力的一刻。或者在《夺宝奇兵》里印第安纳·琼斯选择战胜恐惧跳过蛇堆，继续任务的时候。
Now in a two-hour movie, you get a handful of character-defining moments, but in real life, you face them every day. Life is one strong, long string of character-defining moments. And I was lucky that at 18 I knew what I exactly wanted to do. But I didn't know who I was. How could I? And how could any of us? Because for the first 25 years of our lives, we are trained to listen to voices that are not our own. Parents and professors fill our heads with wisdom and information, and then employers and mentors take their place and explain how this world really works.
一部两小时的电影里有几个定义角色的时刻，但是在真实的生活中，你每天都在面对这样的时刻。生活就是一长串强大的定义角色的时刻。我非常幸运在18岁时就知道我想要做什么。但是我并不知道我是谁。我怎么可能知道呢?我们中任何人都不知道。因为在生命的头一个25年里，我们被训练去倾听除自己以外的人的声音。父母和教授们把智慧和信息塞进我们的脑袋，然后换上雇主和导师来向我们解释这个世界到底是怎么一回事。
And usually these voices of authority make sense, but sometimes, doubt starts to creep into our heads and into our hearts. And even when we think, 'that's not quite how I see the world,' it's kind of easier to just to nod in agreement and go along, and for a while, I let that going along define my character. Because I was repressing my own point of view, because like in that Nilsson song, 'Everybody was talkin' at me, so I couldn't hear the echoes of my mind.'
通常这些权威人物的声音是有道理的，但是有些时候，质疑会爬进你的脑子和心里。就算我们觉得“这好像不太是我看世界的方式”，点头表示赞同也是更容易做的事情，有段时间我就让“附和”定义了我。因为我压抑了自己的想法，因为就像尼尔森歌里唱的一样：“每个人都在对我说话，所以我听不见我思考的回声。”
And at first, the internal voice I needed to listen to was hardly audible, and it was hardly noticeable - kind of like me in high school. But then I started paying more attention, and my intuition kicked in.
一开始，我需要倾听的内心的声音几乎一声不响，也难以察觉——就像高中时的我。但是之后我开始更加注意这些声音，然后我的直觉开始工作。
And I want to be clear that your intuition is different from your conscience. They work in tandem, but here's the distinction: Your conscience shouts, 'here's what you should do,' while your intuition whispers, 'here's what you could do.' Listen to that voice that tells you what you could do. Nothing will define your character more than that.
我想告诉你，你的直觉和你的良心是两个不同的事物。它们会协力工作，但这是它们的不同：你的良心会呼喊“你应当去做这个”，而你的直觉只会低语“你是可以这样做的”。倾听那个告诉你你能怎么去做的声音。没有什么比这更能定义你的角色的了。
Because once I turned to my intuition, and I tuned into it, certain projects began to pull me into them, and others, I turned away from.
因为我一旦会听从我的直觉，我就会全力投入到一些项目中去，而放弃其它。
And up until the 1980s, my movies were mostly, I guess what you could call 'escapist.' And I don't dismiss any of these movies - not even 1941. Not even that one. And many of these early films reflected the values that I cared deeply about, and I still do. But I was in a celluloid bubble, because I'd cut my education short, my worldview was limited to what I could dream up in my head, not what the world could teach me.
直到19世纪80年代时，我电影中的大多数，我猜你们可以称之为“逃避现实”。我不会拒绝任何这些电影的邀约，不只是《1941》。不止那一部，很多早期电影反映了我当时内心的价值观，如今我仍然在这样做。但我当时处于自己的电影泡沫中，因为我的辍学，我受限的世界观部分来自于我的想象，而不是外界教会我的。
But then I directed The Color Purple. And this one film opened my eyes to experiences that I never could have imagined, and yet were all too real. This story was filled with deep pain and deeper truths, like when Shug Avery says, 'Everything wants to be loved.' My gut, which was my intuition, told me that more people needed to meet these characters and experience these truths. And while making that film, I realized that a movie could also be a mission.
当我执导《紫色》的时候，这部电影让我体验了我从未想象过，却如此真实的一些感受。这个故事充满了深深的痛苦和更深一部的真理，就像Shug Avery说“任何一个东西都想被爱着。”我的直觉告诉我，更多的人需要来认识这样的角色，来体验这样的真理。在导演这部电影时，我突然发现一部电影也可以是一个使命。
I hope all of you find that sense of mission. Don't turn away from what's painful. Examine it. Challenge it.
我希望你们所有人都能找到这样的使命感。不要避让让你痛苦的事情。研究它、挑战它。
My job is to create a world that lasts two hours. Your job is to create a world that lasts forever. You are the future innovators, motivators, leaders and caretakers.
我的工作是要构筑一个维持两小时的世界。你的工作是要建一个会一直持续的世界。你们是未来的创新者、激励者、领导者和守护者。
And the way you create a better future is by studying the past. Jurassic Park writer Michael Crichton, who graduated from both this college and this medical school, liked to quote a favorite professor of his who said that if you didn't know history, you didn't know anything. You were a leaf that didn't know it was part of a tree. So history majors: Good choice, you're in great shape...Not in the job market, but culturally.
你们要研究过去，才能建设一个更好的未来。《侏罗纪公园》的编剧Michael Crichton是从这所大学的医学院毕业的。他喜欢引用他最喜欢的一位教授的话，他说如果你不懂得历史，那么你一无所知。你是一片树叶，不知道自己只是树的一部分。所以主修历史的同学们，很棒的选择，你的前景不错…不是说在招聘市场上啊，从文化上来说的话。
The rest of us have to make a little effort. Social media that we're inundated and swarmed with is about the here and now. But I've been fighting and fighting inside my own family to get all my kids to look behind them, to look at what already has happened. Because to understand who they are is to understand who we were, and who their grandparents were, and then, what this country was like when they emigrated here. We are a nation of immigrants - at least for now.
我们剩下的其它人就需要努点力了。淹没和吞噬我们的社交媒体只关乎当下。但是我自己和家人都不断尝试，让我所有的孩子们能透过这些，去看过去发生过的事情。因为要知道他们是谁，就要去理解他们曾经是谁，他们的祖父母是谁，以及当他们移民到这个国家来的时候，这个国家到底是什么样。我们是一个移民国家——至少现在还是。
So, to me, this means we all have to tell our own stories. We have so many stories to tell. Talk to your parents and your grandparents, if you can, and ask them about their stories. And I promise you, like I have promised my kids, you will not be bored.
所以对我来说，这意味着我们每个人都有自己的故事可讲，有很多故事可讲。如果可以的话，和你的父母、祖父母聊聊天，听听他们的故事。我保证，就像我向我的孩子保证的一样，一定收获颇丰，绝对不会无聊。
And that's why I so often make movies based on real-life events. I look to history not to be didactic, 'cause that's just a bonus, but I look because the past is filled with the greatest stories that have ever been told. Heroes and villains are not literary constructs, but they're at the heart of all history.
这就是为什么我经常就会导演由真实事件改编的电影。我回顾历史并不是为了说教，这是额外的奖励，我回顾历史因为过去充满了那些从来没被讲述出来的伟大故事。英雄和坏人不是文学塑造出来的，而是在一切历史的最中心。
And again, this is why it's so important to listen to your internal whisper. It's the same one that compelled Abraham Lincoln and Oskar Schindler to make the correct moral choices. In your defining moments, do not let your morals be swayed by convenience or expediency. Sticking to your character requires a lot of courage. And to be courageous, you're going to need a lot of support.
所以，这就是为什么倾听你内心的低语非常重要。这与驱使亚伯拉罕·林肯和奥斯卡·辛德勒去做正确的道德选择的东西是一样的。在属于你的“定义角色的时刻”里，不要让你的道德被便利或者私利左右。忠于你的角色需要很多的勇气，变得勇敢，你又需要很多的支持。
And if you're lucky, you have parents like mine. I consider my mom my lucky charm. And when I was 12 years old, my father handed me a movie camera, the tool that allowed me to make sense of this world. And I am so grateful to him for that. And I am grateful that he's here at Harvard, sitting right down there.
如果你足够幸运，你会有像我父母一样开明的父母。我把母亲看做我的幸运女神。12岁时，我父亲给了我一个电影摄像机，也是因为有了这个，我可以更好地去感知这个世界，我很感谢我的父亲。现在我很感激父亲也来到哈佛，坐在这里。
My dad is 99 years old, which means he's only one year younger than Widener Library. But unlike Widener, he's had zero cosmetic work. And dad, there's a lady behind you, also 99, and I'll introduce you after this is over, okay?
我父亲今年99岁了，只比怀德纳图书馆(哈佛最大的图书馆今年100年)年轻1岁，但不像这个图书馆可以翻新，父亲已垂垂老矣。另外，父亲，在你身后有一位99岁的女士，这个之后我会介绍你给她，好吗?
But look, if your family's not always available, there's backup. Near the end of It's a Wonderful Life - you remember that movie, It's a Wonderful Life? Clarence the Angel inscribes a book with this: "No man is a failure who has friends." And I hope you hang on to the friendships you've made here at Harvard. And among your friends, I hope you find someone you want to share your life with. I imagine some of you in this yard may be a tad cynical, but I want to be unapologetically sentimental. I spoke about the importance of intuition and how there's no greater voice to follow. That is, until you meet the love of your life. And this is what happened when I met and married Kate, and that became the greatest character-defining moment of my life.
但是，如果你的家人并不总是支持你，还有B计划。在《生活多美好》剧终前，天使Clarence在一本书上题写了这句话：“有朋友的人，不会是生活的失败者。”我希望你们会珍惜在哈佛建立的这些友谊。而在你的朋友之中，我希望你们找个能分享你生活的另一半。我猜想你们中的一些人对此会会抱有怀疑，但是我表现出的感性毫无歉意。我说了直觉的重要性，以及除了直觉没有更值得追随的声音。这是指在你遇到你一生最爱之前。我与妻子相恋并结婚的经历就是如此，这成为了我生活中最重要的“定义角色的时刻”。
Love, support, courage, intuition. All of these things are in your hero's quiver, but still, a hero needs one more thing: A hero needs a villain to vanquish. And you're all in luck. This world is full of monsters. And there's racism, homophobia, ethnic hatred, class hatred, there's political hatred, and there's religious hatred.
爱、支持、勇气、直觉。所有的这些都在你英雄的箭袋之中，但是英雄还需要一件东西——英雄需要一个去征服的坏人。而你们所有人都很走运，这个世界充满了怪物。有种族歧视、恐同、种族仇恨、阶级仇恨，还有政治仇恨和宗教仇恨。
As a kid, I was bullied - for being Jewish. This was upsetting, but compared to what my parents and grandparents had faced, it felt tame. Because we truly believed that anti-Semitism was fading. And we were wrong. Over the last two years, nearly 20,000 Jews have left Europe to find higher ground. And earlier this year, I was at the Israeli embassy when President Obama stated the sad truth. He said: 'We must confront the reality that around the world, anti-Semitism is on the rise. We cannot deny it.'
还是孩子的时候，我因为是犹太人而被起伏。这让人丧气，但是与我父母和祖父母曾经面对的事情比起来，这很平淡。我们都真正相信反犹太运动正在衰退，但我们错了。在过去两年间，有大约两万犹太人离开欧洲寻找生存之地。今年早些时候，我在以色列大使馆听奥巴马总统陈述了一个悲惨的现实。他说：“反犹太运动的增势发生在全球各地，这是我们需要面对的事实。我们不能否认它。”
My own desire to confront that reality compelled me to start, in 1994, the Shoah Foundation. And since then, we've spoken to over 53,000 Holocaust survivors and witnesses in 63 countries and taken all their video testimonies. And we're now gathering testimonies from genocides in Rwanda, Cambodia, Armenia and Nanking. Because we must never forget that the inconceivable doesn't happen - it happens frequently. Atrocities are happening right now. And so we wonder not just, 'When will this hatred end?' but, 'How did it begin?'
我正视这一事实的强烈愿望驱使我从1994年成立了大屠杀真相基金会，从那以后我们采访了63个国家5.3万名大屠杀的幸存者或目击者，录制了他们所有人的证词。现在我们还在收集卢旺达、柬埔寨、亚美尼亚以及南京大屠杀的证词。因为我们永远都不要忘记那些难以想象的罪恶会发生，并且时有发生。暴行也仍在发生。所以我们不能只去想“仇恨什么时候才会停止?”而是“它是怎么开始的?”。
Now, I don't have to tell a crowd of Red Sox fans that we are wired for tribalism. But beyond rooting for the home team, tribalism has a much darker side. Instinctively and maybe even genetically, we pide the world into 'us' and 'them.' So the burning question must be: How do all of us together find the 'we?' How do we do that? There's still so much work to be done, and sometimes I feel the work hasn't even begun. And it's not just anti-Semitism that's surging - Islamophobia's on the rise, too. Because there's no difference between anyone who is discriminated against, whether it's the Muslims, or the Jews, or minorities on the border states, or the LGBT community - it is all big one hate.
我想我并不需要向一群红袜队的球迷解释我们为什么会拥抱部落文化。但是在为主队加油之外，部落文化有它更阴暗的一面。本能地或者由基因决定，我们把世界分成“我们”和“他们”。所以棘手的问题是，我们所有人能共同发现“我们”?我们应当如何去做?仍旧有许多的工作要做，有的时候我甚至觉得这一事业还没开始。这不仅仅是指反犹太运动抬头，伊斯兰恐惧症也在抬头。因为那些被歧视的人群之间是没有区别的，不管他们是穆斯林、犹太人、边境州里的弱势人群，或者是同性恋、双性恋及变性者社群——他们遭受的都是同样的仇恨。
And to me, and, I think, to all of you, the only answer to more hate is more humanity. We gotta repair - we have to replace fear with curiosity. 'Us' and 'them' - we'll find the 'we' by connecting with each other. And by believing that we're members of the same tribe. And by feeling empathy for every soul - even Yalies.
对我来说，我想对你们也一样，只能用更多的人性来对抗更多的仇恨。我们需要修护，用好奇来替代恐惧。不排斥异己，我们通过建立人与人的联系来找到共同的“我们”。我们要相信我们是同一个部落的成员。我们对所有的人都要有同情心——哪怕对“友校”耶鲁人也要如此。
My son graduated from Yale, thank you…
我的儿子就是从耶鲁毕业的，谢谢…
But make sure this empathy isn't just something that you feel. Make it something you act upon. That means vote. Peaceably protest. Speak up for those who can't and speak up for those who may be shouting but aren't being hard. Let your conscience shout as loud as it wants if you're using it in the service of others.
但是你要确认你的同理心不只是你的感受。让它是你采取行动的诱因。这是指参加投票、和平地抗议、为那些不能为自己发声或者已经声嘶力竭却无法让人注意的人发声。让你的良心大声疾呼吧，如果是为了服务于他们。
And as an example of action in service of others, you need to look no further than this Hollywood-worthy backdrop of Memorial Church. Its south wall bears the names of Harvard alumni - like President Faust has already mentioned - students and faculty members, who gave their lives in World War II. All told, 697 souls, who once tread the ground where stand now, were lost. And at a service in this church in late 1945, Harvard President James Conant - which President Faust also mentioned - honored the brave and called upon the community to 'reflect the radiance of their deeds.'
作为为他人服务的行动榜样，你只需要看看这像好莱坞背景一般的纪念教堂。它的南墙上是哈佛校友们的名字，福斯特校长已经说过，他们是在第二次世界大战中献身的哈佛学生和教师们。697个人，他们曾经在你站着的地方逗留过，697条生命逝去。在1945年纪念教堂举行的追思会上，柯南特校长纪念这些勇敢的人们，并号召哈佛人身上要“反射出他们壮举的荣光”。
Seventy years later, this message still holds true. Because their sacrifice is not a debt that can be repaid in a single generation. It must be repaid with every generation. Just as we must never forget the atrocities, we must never forget those who fought for freedom. So as you leave this college and head out into the world, continue please to 'reflect the radiance of their deeds,' or as Captain Miller in Saving Private Ryan would say, "Earn this."
70年后，这句话仍然适用。因为他们所做出的牺牲不是一代人就能报答的。每一代人都应该报答他们。就像我们永远不该忘记那些恶行，我们永远也不应当忘记那些为自由而战的人。所以当你离开这所学校进入世界，请继续“反射出他们壮举的荣光”，或者像《拯救大兵瑞恩》里米勒上尉说的“别辜负大家”。
And please stay connected. Please never lose eye contact. This may not be a lesson you want to hear from a person who creates media, but we are spending more time looking down at our devices than we are looking in each other's eyes. So, forgive me, but let's start right now. Everyone here, please find someone's eyes to look into. Students, and alumni and you too, President Faust, all of you, turn to someone you don't know or don't know very well. They may be standing behind you, or a couple of rows ahead. Just let your eyes meet. That's it. That emotion you're feeling is our shared humanity mixed in with a little social discomfort.
此外，请保持彼此的联系，别避而不见。这可能不是你想从一个创作媒体的人这里听的一课，但是我们花越来越多的时间低头看手机，而不是注视别人的眼睛。所以请原谅我，现在所有人，请找一双眼睛深刻凝视。学生们、校友们都是，福斯特校长、你们所有人，转向一位你不认识或者不熟悉的人，对视，仅此而已。你所感受到的使我们共同拥有的人性，混进去了一丝社交不适感。
But, if you remember nothing else from today, I hope you remember this moment of human connection. And I hope you all had a lot of that over the past four years. Because today you start down the path of becoming the generation on which the next generation stands. And I've imagined many possible futures in my films, but you will determine the actual future. And I hope that it's filled with justice and peace.
如果你今天别的什么都没记住，我希望你能记住这一刻人与人之间的联系。我希望过去四年中，你们经历了很多的这样的时刻。因为从今天开始，你们会像前辈一样，托举起下一辈人。我在我的电影里幻想过很多种不同的未来，但是你们会决定未来的实际样子。我希望，这样的未来充满公正与和平。
And finally, I wish you all a true, Hollywood-style happy ending. I hope you outrun the T. rex, catch the criminal and for your parents' sake, maybe every now and then, just like E.T.: Go home. Thank you.
最后，我祝愿大家好莱坞式的大团圆结局成真。祝你们能跑过暴龙、抓住罪犯，为了你们的父母，也别忘了像E.T.那样常回家看看。谢谢。
世界成功人士演讲篇3：特雷莎·梅
I have just been to Buckingham Palace where Her Majesty the Queen has asked me to form a new government, and I accepted.
我刚去过白金汉宫，女王陛下命我组建新政府，我接受了这个命令。
In David Cameron, I follow in the footsteps of a great, modern prime minister. Under David's leadership, the government stabilized the economy, reduced the budget deficit, and helped more people into work than ever before.
我追随戴维·卡梅伦的足迹前行，他是一位伟大的现代首相。在卡梅伦的领导下，政府稳定了经济，降低了财政赤字，帮助更多的人找到了工作。
But David's true legacy is not about the economy, but about social justice. From the introduction of same-sex marriage, to taking people on low wages out of income tax altogether.
但戴维传承给我们的不仅仅是经济方面的成果，他真正的成就在于社会公正，从同性婚姻立法，到取消低收入者所得税等等。
David Cameron has led a one nation government and it is in that spirit that I also plan to lead. Because not everybody knows this, but the full title of my party is the Conservative and Unionist Party. And that word Unionist is very important to me. It means we believe in the Union. That precious, precious bond between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
卡梅伦领导了一个统一的政府，我也将本着这种精神执政。并非所有人都清楚，我所在的政党全称是保守和统一党。“统一主义者”一词对我而言至关重要。它表明我相信统一，这是英格兰、苏格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰之间十分珍贵的结合。
But it means something else that is just as important. It means that we believe in a Union not just of the nations of the United Kingdom, but between all of our citizens. Every one of us, whoever we are and wherever we are from.
统一还意味着同样重要的东西，它意味着我们不仅相信英国各地的统一，还相信所有公民的统一，每个人，不论我们是谁，从哪里来。
That means fighting against the burning injustice that if you are born poor, you will die on average nine years earlier than others. If you're black, you're treated more harshly by the criminal justice system than if you are white.
它意味着要反对迫切的不公正。如果你出身贫穷，你就比其他人少活九年;如果你是黑人，司法体系对你的惩罚就比白人更严厉。
If you're a white, working-class boy, you're less likely than anyone else in Britain to go to university. If you're at a state school, you're less likely to reach the top professions than if you were educated privately.
如果你是白人工薪家庭的男孩，你在英国上大学的机会就最低;如果你上公立学校，你就比接受私立教育的人获得顶尖工作的机会要少。
If you are a woman, you will earn less than a man. If you suffer from mental health problems, there's not enough help to hand. If you're young, you'll find it harder than ever before to own your own home.
如果你是女性，你赚得就比男人少。如果你有精神疾病，你得不到足够的帮助。如果你是年轻人，你会比之前任何时期都更难拥有自己的住房。
But the mission to make Britain a country that works for everyone means more than just fighting these injustices.
但是，让英国成为适合每个人的国家，不仅仅意味着与这些不公抗争。
If you're from an ordinary working-class family, life is much harder than many people in Westminster realize. You have the job, but you don't always have the job security.
如果你来自普通工薪家庭，你的生活会比政府里许多人所认为的要艰难得多。你有工作，可往往并不稳定。
You have your own home, but you worry about paying the mortgage. You can just about manage, but you worry about the cost of living and getting your kids into a good school.
你有房子，可担心付不起月供。你能勉强维持生计，却担心生活费增加，不能把孩子送进好学校。
If you're one of those families, If you're just managing, I want to address you directly. I know you're working around the clock, I know you're doing your best, and I know that sometimes, life can be a struggle. The government I lead will be driven not by the interests of a privileged few, but by yours.
如果你来自这些家庭，如果你也在勉强维持生计，我想要直接地对你们说：我知道你起早贪黑，我知道你竭尽全力，我知道生活有时是一种挣扎。我领导的政府不会被一小撮特权群体的利益驱使，我们会为你们的利益而奔走。
We will do everything we can to give you more control over your lives. When we take the big calls, we'll think not of the powerful but you. When we pass new laws, we'll listen not to the mighty, but you. When it comes to taxes we'll prioritize not the wealthy, but you. When it comes to opportunity, we won't entrench the advantages of the fortunate few.
我们将尽一切所能让你们更好地掌控自己的生活。做重大决定时，我们会考虑你们的利益，而非那些有权之人。通过新法案时，我们会倾听你们的意见，而非那些有势之人。制定税收政策时，我们会优先考虑你们，而非那些有钱之。提供机会时，我们不会只偏向那些少数幸运之人。
We will do everything we can to help anybody, whatever your background, to go as far as your talents will take you.
我们将尽一切所能帮助所有人，不论你背景如何，都让你能发挥所长。
We are living through an important moment in our country's history. Following the referendum we face a time of great national change. And I know because we're Great Britain, we will rise to the challenge.
我们正经历着国家历史上一个重要时刻。公投后我们面临着国家重大变革的时代。我知道，因为我们是大不列颠，我们将直面挑战。
As we leave the European Union, we will forge a bold, new positive role for ourselves in the world. And we will make Britain a country that works not for a privileged few, but for every one of us.
我们离开了欧盟，我们会在世界上打造一个勇敢、积极的新角色。我们要让英国成为一个服务于每个人的国家，而不只是为少数特权阶级服务。
That will be the mission of the government I lead, and together, we will build a better Britain.
这就是我领导政府的使命，让我们携手共建一个更美好的英国。
