The Speech of Putin Ladies and Gentlemen, I am delighted to greet members and guests of the General Aembly of the International Exhibitions Bureau.Ruia has a long and rich experience of participation in the World Expo movement.We took part in the very first universal exhibition in London in 1851.And at the Paris exhibition in 1900 our pavilion won the coveted Gold Medal and Grand Prix.But in all this time, Ruia has not hosted the World Expo, not once.Surely, time has come to change this.So, we proudly submit our bid to host World Expo 2020 in Yekaterinburg – a dynamic and promising city.Our bid’s organising committee has the full backing of the Ruian government.We guarantee: it will be a priority national project.We are going to build a maive state-of-the-art complex with the capacity to host 30 million visitors over the course of the event.We plan to allocate all the neceary funding for its construction.I am confident: we shall welcome guests from 150 nations of the world with pride and dignity.Now, once again I would like to make this very clear: Ruia guarantees to fulfil the complete range of requirements set by the International Exhibitions Bureau.In particular, we are preparing a special programme of support for developing countries.This will enable around ninety countries to freely participate in the Expo, completely free of charge.I can aure you that our grand-scale plans for 2020 will be delivered if Yekaterinburg is given the honour to host World Expo 2020.Thank you for your attention, and I hope for your support.

The Speech of Obama Hello, everybody! Thank you.Thank you.Thank you, everybody.All right, everybody go ahead and have a seat.How is everybody doing today? (Applause.) How about Tim Spicer? (Applause.) I am here with students at Wakefield High School in Arlington, Virginia.And we’ve got students tuning in from all acro America, from kindergarten through 12th grade.And I am just so glad that all could join us today.And I want to thank Wakefield for being such an outstanding host.Give yourselves a big round of applause.(Applause.)

I know that for many of you, today is the first day of school.And for those of you in kindergarten, or starting middle or high school, it’s your first day in a new school, so it’s understandable if you’re a little nervous.I imagine there are some seniors out there who are feeling pretty good right now -- (applause) -- with just one more year to go.And no matter what grade you’re in, some of you are probably wishing it were still summer and you could’ve stayed in bed just a little bit longer this morning.I know that feeling.When I was young, my family lived overseas.I lived in Indonesia for a few years.And my mother, she didn’t have the money to send me where all the American kids went to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep up with an American education.So she decided to teach me extra leons herself, Monday through Friday.But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4:30 in the morning.Now, as you might imagine, I wasn’t too happy about getting up that early.And a lot of times, I’d fall asleep right there at the kitchen table.But whenever I’d complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and she’d say, \"This is no picnic for me either, buster.\" So I know that some of you are still adjusting to being back at school.But I’m here today because I have something important to discu with you.I’m here because I want to talk with you about your education and what’s expected of all of you in this new school year.Now, I’ve given a lot of speeches about education.And I’ve talked about responsibility a lot.I’ve talked about teachers’ responsibility for inspiring students and pushing you to learn.I’ve talked about your parents’ responsibility for making sure you stay on track, and you get your homework done, and don’t spend every waking hour in front of the TV or with the Xbox.I’ve talked a lot about your government’s responsibility for setting high standards, and supporting teachers and principals, and turning around schools that aren’t working, where students aren’t getting the opportunities that they deserve.But at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, the best schools in the world -- and none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unle all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unle you show up to those schools, unle you pay attention to those teachers, unle you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work

it takes to succeed.That’s what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education.I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself.Every single one of you has something that you’re good at.Every single one of you has something to offer.And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is.That’s the opportunity an education can provide.Maybe you could be a great writer -- maybe even good enough to write a book or articles in a newspaper -- but you might not know it until you write that English paper -- that English cla paper that’s aigned to you.Maybe you could be an innovator or an inventor -- maybe even good enough to come up with the next iPhone or the new medicine or vaccine -- but you might not know it until you do your project for your science cla.Maybe you could be a mayor or a senator or a Supreme Court justice -- but you might not know that until you join student government or the debate team.And no matter what you want to do with your life, I guarantee that you’ll need an education to do it.You want to be a doctor, or a teacher, or a police officer? You want to be a nurse or an architect, a lawyer or a member of our military? You’re going to need a good education for every single one of those careers.You cannot drop out of school and just drop into a good job.You’ve got to train for it and work for it and learn for it.And this isn’t just important for your own life and your own future.What you make of your education will decide nothing le than the future of this country.The future of America depends on you.What you’re learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future.You’ll need the knowledge and problem-solving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS, and to develop new energy technologies and protect our environment.You’ll need the insights and critical-thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelene, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free.You’ll need the creativity and ingenuity you develop in all your claes to build new companies that will create new jobs and boost our economy.We need every single one of you to develop your talents and your skills and your intellect so you can help us old folks solve our most difficult problems.If you don’t do that -- if you quit on school -- you’re not just quitting on yourself, you’re quitting on your country.

Now, I know it’s not always easy to do well in school.I know a lot of you have challenges in your lives right now that can make it hard to focus on your schoolwork.

I get it.I know what it’s like.My father left my family when I was two years old, and I was raised by a single mom who had to work and who struggled at times to pay the bills and wasn’t always able to give us the things that other kids had.There were times when I mied having a father in my life.There were times when I was lonely and I felt like I didn’t fit in.

So I wasn’t always as focused as I should have been on school, and I did some things I’m not proud of, and I got in more trouble than I should have.And my life could have easily taken a turn for the worse.But I was -- I was lucky.I got a lot of second chances, and I had the opportunity to go to college and law school and follow my dreams.My wife, our First Lady Michelle Obama, she has a similar story.Neither of her parents had gone to college, and they didn’t have a lot of money.But they worked hard, and she worked hard, so that she could go to the best schools in this country.

The speech of Lincoln Fourscore and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continenta new Nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition thatall men are created equal.Now, we are engaged in a great Civil War,testing whether that Nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated,can long endure.We are met on a great battlefield of that war.We havecome to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for thosewho gave their lives that Nation might live.It is altogether fitting andproper that we should do this.But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannothallow this ground.The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here,have consecrated it far above our power to add or detract.The world willlittle note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget whatthey did here.It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated to thegreat task remaining before us; that from these honored dead, we takeincreased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measureof devotion; that this Nation, under GOD, shall have a new birth of freedom;and that government of the People by the People and for the People shall notperish from the earth..

Tribute to Diana

致戴安娜——查尔斯·斯宾塞

Diana was the very eence of compaion, of duty, of style, of beauty.All over the world she was a symbol of selfle humanity.All over the world, a standard bearer for the right of the truly downtrodden, a very British girl who transcend nationality, someone with a natural nobility who was clale.

在全世界,戴安娜是同情心、责任心、风度和美丽的化身,是无私和人道的象征,是维护真正被践踏的权益的旗手,是一个超越国界的英国女孩,是一个带有自然的高贵气质的人,是一个不分阶层的人。

This is the text of Earl Spencer\'s tribute to his sister at her funeral.There is some very deep, powerful and heartfelt sentiment.Would that those at whom it is aimed would take heed.The versions posted on several news services had minor errors.This is precisely as it was deliverd.

I stand before you today the representative of a family in grief, in a country in mourning before a world in shock.

We are all united not only in our desire to pay our respects to Diana but rather in our need to do so.

For such was her extraordinary appeal that the tens of millions of people taking part in this service all over the world via television and radio who never actually met her, feel that they, too, lost someone close to them in the early hours of Sunday morning.It is a more remarkable tribute to Diana than I can ever hope to offer her today.

Diana was the very eence of compaion, of duty, of style, of beauty.All over the world she was a symbol of selfle humanity, a standard-bearer for the rights of the truly downtrodden, a very British girl who transcended nationality, someone with a natural nobility who was clale, who proved in the last year that she needed no royal title to continue to generate her particular brand of magic.

Today is our chance to say \"thank you\" for the way you brightened our lives, even though God granted you but half a life.We will all feel cheated, always, that you were taken from us so young and yet we must learn to be grateful that you came along at all.

Only now you are gone do we truly appreciate what we are now without and we want you to know that life without you is very, very difficult.

We have all despaired at our lo over the past week and only the strength of the meage you gave us through your years of giving has afforded us the strength to move forward.

There is a temptation to rush to canonize your memory.There is no need to do so.You stand tall enough as a human being of unique qualities not to need to be seen as a saint.Indeed to sanctify your memory would be to mi out on the very core of your being, your wonderfully mischievous sense of humor with the laugh that bent you double, your joy for life transmitted wherever you took your smile, and the sparkle in those unforgettable eyes, your boundle energy which you could barely contain.

But your greatest gift was your intuition, and it was a gift you used wisely.This is what underpinned all your wonderful attributes.And if we look to analyze what it was about you that had such a wide appeal, we find it in your instinctive feel for what was really important in all our lives.

Without your God-given sensitivity, we would be immersed in greater ignorance at the anguish of AIDS and HIV sufferers, the plight of the homele, the isolation of lepers, the random destruction of land mines.Diana explained to me once that it was her innermost feelings of suffering that made it poible for her to connect with her constituency of the rejected.

And here we come to another truth about her.For all the status, the glamour, the applause, Diana remained throughout a very insecure person at heart, almost childlike in her desire to do good for others so she could release herself from deep feelings of unworthine of which her eating disorders were merely a symptom.

The world sensed this part of her character and cherished her for her vulnerability, whilst admiring her for her honesty.The last time I saw Diana was on July the first, her birthday, in London, when typically she was not taking time to celebrate her special day with friends but was guest of honor at a fund-raising charity evening.

She sparkled of course, but I would rather cherish the days I spent with her in March when she came to visit me and my children in our home in South Africa.I am proud of the fact that apart from when she was on public display meeting President Mandela, we managed to contrive to stop the ever-present paparazzi from getting a single picture of her.

That meant a lot to her.

These were days I will always treasure.It was as if we\'d been transported back to our childhood, when we spent such an enormous amount of time together, the two youngest in the family.

Fundamentally she hadn\'t changed at all from the big sister who mothered me as a baby, fought with me at school and endured those long train journeys between our parents\' homes with me at weekends.It is a tribute to her level-headedne and strength that despite the most bizarre life imaginable after her childhood, she remained intact, true to herself.

There is no doubt that she was looking for a new direction in her life at this time.She talked

endlely of getting away from England, mainly because of the treatment she received at the hands of the newspapers.

I don\'t think she ever understood why her genuinely good intentions were sneered at by the media, why there appeared to be a permanent quest on their behalf to bring her down.It is baffling.My own, and only, explanation is that genuine goodne is threatening to those at the opposite end of the moral spectrum.

It is a point to remember that of all the ironies about Diana, perhaps the greatest was this; that a girl given the name of the ancient godde of hunting was, in the end, the most hunted person of the modern age.

She would want us today to pledge ourselves to protecting her beloved boys William and Harry from a similar fate.And I do this here, Diana, on your behalf.We will not allow them to suffer the anguish that used regularly to drive you to tearful despair.

Beyond that, on behalf of your mother and sisters, I pledge that we, your blood family, will do all we can to continue the imaginative and loving way in which you were steering these two exceptional young men, so that their souls are not simply immersed by duty and tradition but can sing openly as you planned.

We fully respect the heritage into which they have both been born, and will always respect and encourage them in their royal role.But we, like you, recognize the need for them to experience as many different aspects of life as poible, to arm them spiritually and emotionally for the years ahead.I know you would have expected nothing le from us.

William and Harry, we all care desperately for you today.We are all chewed up with sadne at the lo of a woman who wasn\'t even our mother.How great your suffering is we cannot even imagine.

I would like to end by thanking God for the small mercies he has shown us at this dreadful time; for taking Diana at her most beautiful and radiant and when she had joy in her private life.

Above all, we give thanks for the life of a woman I am so proud to be able to call my sister: the unique the complex, the extraordinary and irreplaceable Diana, whose beauty, both internal and external, will never be extinguished from our minds.

an honor and pleasure for me to be back at yale, especially on the occasion of the 300th anniversary.i have had so many memories of my time here, and as nick was speaking i thought about how i ended up at yale law school.and it tells a little bit about how much progre we’ve made. what i think most about when i think of yale is not just the politically charged atmosphere and not even just the superb legal education that i received.it was at yale that i began work that has been at the core of what i have cared about ever since.i began working with new haven legal services representing children.and i studied child development, abuse and neglect at the yale new haven hospital and the child study center.i was lucky enough to receive a civil rights internship with marian wright edelman at the children’s defense fund, where i went to work after i graduated.those experiences fueled in me a paion to work for the benefit of children, particularly the most vulnerable. now, looking back, there is no way that i could have predicted what path my life would have taken.i didn’t sit around the law school, saying, well, you know, i think i’ll graduate and then i’ll go to work at the children’s defense fund, and then the impeachment inquiry, and nixon retired or resigns, i’ll go to arkansas.i didn’t think like that.i was taking each day at a time. but, i’ve been very fortunate because i’ve always had an idea in my mind about what i thought was important and what gave my life meaning and purpose.a set of values and beliefs that have helped me navigate the shoals, the sometimes very treacherous sea, to illuminate my own true desires, despite that others say about what l should care about and believe in.a paion to succeed at what l thought was important and children have always provided that lone star, that guiding light.because l have that absolute conviction that every child, especially in this, the most bleed of nations that has ever existed on the face of earth, that every child deserves the opportunity to live up to his or her god-given potential. but you know that belief and conviction-it may make for a personal miion statement, but standing alone, not translated into action, it means very little to anyone else, particularly to those for whom you have those concerns. when i was thinking about running for the united states senate-which was such an enormous decision to make, one i never could have dreamed that i would have been making when i was here on campus-i visited a school in new york city and i met a young woman, who was a star athlete. and it doesn’t mean that once having made that choice you will always succeed.in fact, you won’t.there are setbacks and you will experience difficult disappointments.you will be slowed down and sometimes the breath will just be knocked out of you.but if you carry with you the values and beliefs that you can make a difference in your own life, first and foremost, and then in the lives of others.you can get back up, you can keep going. but it is also important, as i have found, not to take yourself too seriously, because after all, every one of us here today, none of us is deserving of full credit.i think every day of the bleings my birth gave me without any doing of my own.i chose neither my family nor my country, but they as much as anything i’ve ever done, determined my course. you have been there trying to serve because you have believed both that it was the right thing to do and because it gave something back to you.you have dared to care. well, dare to care to fight for equal justice for all, for equal pay for women, against hate crimes and bigotry.dare to care about public schools without qualified teachers or adequate resources.dare to care about protecting our environment.dare to care about the 10 million children in our country who lack health insurance.dare to care about the one and a half million children who have a parent in jail.the seven million people who suffer from hiv/aids.and thank you for caring enough to demand that our nation do more to help those that are suffering throughout this world with hiv/aids, to prevent this pandemic from spreading even further. and so bring your values and experiences and insights into politics.dare to help make, not just a difference in politics, but create a different politics.some have called you the generation of choice.you’ve been raised with multiple choice tests, multiple channels, multiple websites and multiple lifestyles.you’ve grown up choosing among alternatives that were either not imagined, created or available to people in prior generations. you’ve been invested with far more personal power to customize your life, to make more free choices about how to live than was ever thought poible.and i think as i look at all the surveys and research that is done, your choices reflect not only freedom, but personal responsibility. the social indicators, not the headlines, the social indicators tell a positive story: drug use and cheating and arrests being down, been pregnancy and suicides, drunk driving deaths being down. it is not the vast conspiracy you may have heard about; rather it’s a silent conspiracy of cynicism and indifference and alienation that we see every day, in our popular culture and in our prodigious consumerism. but as many have said before and as vaclav havel has said to memorably, “it cannot suffice just to invent new machines, new regulations and new institutions.it is neceary to understand differently and more perfectly the true purpose of our existence on this earth and of our deeds.” and i think we are called on to reject, in this time of bleings that we enjoy, those who will tear us apart and tear us down and instead to liberate our god-given spirit, by being willing to dare to dream of a better world. during my campaign, when times were tough and days were long i used to think about the example of harriet tubman, a heroic new yorker, a 19th century moses, who risked her life to bring hundreds of slaves to freedom.she would say to those who she gathered up in the south where she kept going back year after year from the safety of auburn, new york, that no matter what happens, they had to keep going.if they heard shouts behind them, they had to keep going.if they heard gunfire or dogs, they had to keep going to freedom.well, those aren’t the risks we face.it is more the silence and apathy and indifference that dogs our heels. thirty-two years ago, i spoke at my own graduation from wellesley, where i did call on my fellow clamates to reject the notion of limitations on our ability to effect change and instead to embrace the idea that the goal of education should be human liberation and the freedom to practice with all the skill of our being the art of making poible. thank you and god ble you all.篇3:名人英文励志演讲稿

----- it is such an honor and pleasure for me to be back at yale, especially on the occasion of the 300th anniversary.i have had so many memories of my time here, and as nick was speaking i thought about how i ended up at yale law school.and it tells a little bit about how much progre we’ve made. what i think most about when i think of yale is not just the politically charged atmosphere and not even just the superb legal education that i received.it was at yale that i began work that has been at the core of what i have cared about ever since.i began working with new haven legal services representing children.and i studied child development, abuse and neglect at the yale new haven hospital and the child study center.i was lucky enough to receive a civil rights internship with marian wright edelman at the children’s defense fund, where i went to work after i graduated.those experiences fueled in me a paion to work for the benefit of children, particularly the most vulnerable. now, looking back, there is no way that i could have predicted what path my life would have taken.i didn’t sit around the law school, saying, well, you know, i think i’ll graduate and then i’ll go to work at the children’s defense fund, and then the impeachment inquiry, and nixon retired or resigns, i’ll go to arkansas.i didn’t think like that.i was taking each day at a time. but, i’ve been very fortunate because i’ve always had an idea in my mind about what i thought was important and what gave my life meaning and purpose.a set of values and beliefs that have helped me navigate the shoals, the sometimes very treacherous sea, to illuminate my own true desires, despite that others say about what l should care about and believe in.a paion to succeed at what l thought was important and children have always provided that lone star, that guiding light.because l have that absolute conviction that every child, especially in this, the most bleed of nations that has ever existed on the face of earth, that every child deserves the opportunity to live up to his or her god-given potential. but you know that belief and conviction-it may make for a personal miion statement, but standing alone, not translated into action, it means very little to anyone else, particularly to those for whom you have those concerns. when i was thinking about running for the united states senate-which was such an enormous decision to make, one i never could have dreamed that i would have been making when i was here on campus-i visited a school in new york city and i met a young woman, who was a star athlete. and it doesn’t mean that once having made that choice you will always succeed.in fact, you won’t.there are setbacks and you will experience difficult disappointments.you will be slowed down and sometimes the breath will just be knocked out of you.but if you carry with you the values and beliefs that you can make a difference in your own life, first and foremost, and then in the lives of others.you can get back up, you can keep going. but it is also important, as i have found, not to take yourself too seriously, because after all, every one of us here today, none of us is deserving of full credit.i think every day of the bleings my birth gave me without any doing of my own.i chose neither my family nor my country, but they as much as anything i’ve ever done, determined my course. you have been there trying to serve because you have believed both that it was the right thing to do and because it gave something back to you.you have dared to care. well, dare to care to fight for equal justice for all, for equal pay for women, against hate crimes and bigotry.dare to care about public schools without qualified teachers or adequate resources.dare to care about protecting our environment.dare to care about the 10 million children in our country who lack health insurance.dare to care about the one and a half million children who have a parent in jail.the seven million people who suffer from hiv/aids.and thank you for caring enough to demand that our nation do more to help those that are suffering throughout this world with hiv/aids, to prevent this pandemic from spreading even further. and so bring your values and experiences and insights into politics.dare to help make, not just a difference in politics, but create a different politics.some have called you the generation of choice.you’ve been raised with multiple choice tests, multiple channels, multiple websites and multiple lifestyles.you’ve grown up choosing among alternatives that were either not imagined, created or available to people in prior generations. you’ve been invested with far more personal power to customize your life, to make more free choices about how to live than was ever thought poible.and i think as i look at all the surveys and research that is done, your choices reflect not only freedom, but personal responsibility. the social indicators, not the headlines, the social indicators tell a positive story: drug use and cheating and arrests being down, been pregnancy and suicides, drunk driving deaths being down. it is not the vast conspiracy you may have heard about; rather it’s a silent conspiracy of cynicism and indifference and alienation that we see every day, in our popular culture and in our prodigious consumerism. but as many have said before and as vaclav havel has said to memorably, “it cannot suffice just to invent new machines, new regulations and new institutions.it is neceary to understand differently and more perfectly the true purpose of our existence on this earth and of our deeds.” and i think we are called on to reject, in this time of bleings that we enjoy, those who will tear us apart and tear us down and instead to liberate our god-given spirit, by being willing to dare to dream of a better world. during my campaign, when times were tough and days were long i used to think about the example of harriet tubman, a heroic new yorker, a 19th century moses, who risked her life to bring hundreds of slaves to freedom.she would say to those who she gathered up in the south where she kept going back year after year from the safety of auburn, new york, that no matter what happens, they had to keep going.if they heard shouts behind them, they had to keep going.if they heard gunfire or dogs, they had to keep going to freedom.well, those aren’t the risks we face.it is more the silence and apathy and indifference that dogs our heels. thirty-two years ago, i spoke at my own graduation from wellesley, where i did call on my fellow clamates to reject the notion of limitations on our ability to effect change and instead to embrace the idea that the goal of education should be human liberation and the freedom to practice with all the skill of our being the art of making poible. thank you and god ble you all.篇3:名人英语演讲稿

名人英语演讲稿 tribute to diana 致戴安娜——查尔斯·斯宾塞

在全世界,戴安娜是同情心、责任心、风度和美丽的化身,是无私和人道的象征,是维护真正被践踏的权益的旗手,是一个超越国界的英国女孩,是一个带有自然的高贵气质的人,是一个不分阶层的人。 this is the text of earl spencers tribute to his sister at her funeral.there is some very deep, powerful and heartfelt sentiment.would that those at whom it is aimed would take heed.the versions posted on several news services had minor errors.this is precisely as it was deliverd. i stand before you today the representative of a family in grief, in a country in mourning before a world in shock. we are all united not only in our desire to pay our respects to diana but rather in our need to do so. for such was her extraordinary appeal that the tens of millions of people taking part in this service all over the world via television and radio who never actually met her, feel that they, too, lost someone close to them in the early hours of sunday morning.it is a more remarkable tribute to diana than i can ever hope to offer her today. today is our chance to say thank you for the way you brightened our lives, even though god granted you but half a life.we will all feel cheated, always, that you were taken from us so young and yet we must learn to be grateful that you came along at all. only now you are gone do we truly appreciate what we are now without and we want you to know that life without you is very, very difficult. we have all despaired at our lo over the past week and only the strength of the meage you gave us through your years of giving has afforded us the strength to move forward. there is a temptation to rush to canonize your memory.there is no need to do so.you stand tall enough as a human being of unique qualities not to need to be seen as a saint.indeed to sanctify your memory would be to mi out on the very core of your being, your wonderfully mischievous sense of humor with the laugh that bent you double, your joy for life transmitted wherever you took your smile, and the sparkle in those unforgettable eyes, your boundle energy which you could barely contain. but your greatest gift was your intuition, and it was a gift you used wisely.this is what underpinned all your wonderful attributes.and if we look to analyze what it was about you that had such a wide appeal, we find it in your instinctive feel for what was really important in all our lives. without your god-given sensitivity, we would be immersed in greater ignorance at the anguish of aids and hiv sufferers, the plight of the homele, the isolation of lepers, the random destruction of land mines.diana explained to me once that it was her innermost feelings of suffering that made it poible for her to connect with her constituency of the rejected. the world sensed this part of her character and cherished her for her vulnerability, whilst admiring her for her honesty.the last time i saw diana was on july the first, her birthday, in london, when typically she was not taking time to celebrate her special day with friends but was guest of honor at a fund-raising charity evening. she sparkled of course, but i would rather cherish the days i spent with her in march when she came to visit me and my children in our home in south africa.i am proud of the fact that apart from when she was on public display meeting president mandela, we managed to contrive to stop the ever-present paparazzi from getting a single picture of her. that meant a lot to her. these were days i will always treasure.it was as if wed been transported back to our childhood, when we spent such an enormous amount of time together, the two youngest in the family. fundamentally she hadnt changed at all from the big sister who mothered me as a baby, fought with me at school and endured those long train journeys between our parents homes with me at weekends.it is a tribute to her level-headedne and strength that despite the most bizarre life imaginable after her childhood, she remained intact, true to herself. there is no doubt that she was looking for a new direction in her life at this time.she talked endlely of getting away from england, mainly because of the treatment she received at the hands of the newspapers. i dont think she ever understood why her genuinely good intentions were sneered at by the media, why there appeared to be a permanent quest on their behalf to bring her down.it is baffling.my own, and only, explanation is that genuine goodne is threatening to those at the opposite end of the moral spectrum. it is a point to remember that of all the ironies about diana, perhaps the greatest was this; that a girl given the name of the ancient godde of hunting was, in the end, the most hunted person of the modern age. she would want us today to pledge ourselves to protecting her beloved boys william and harry from a similar fate.and i do this here, diana, on your behalf.we will not allow them to suffer the anguish that used regularly to drive you to tearful despair. beyond that, on behalf of your mother and sisters, i pledge that we, your blood family, will do all we can to continue the imaginative and loving way in which you were steering these two exceptional young men, so that their souls are not simply immersed by duty and tradition but can sing openly as you planned. we fully respect the heritage into which they have both been born, and will always respect and encourage them in their royal role.but we, like you, recognize the need for them to experience as many different aspects of life as poible, to arm them spiritually and emotionally for the years ahead.i know you would have expected nothing le from us. william and harry, we all care desperately for you today.we are all chewed up with sadne at the lo of a woman who wasnt even our mother.how great your suffering is we cannot even imagine. i would like to end by thanking god for the small mercies he has shown us at this dreadful time; for taking diana at her most beautiful and radiant and when she had joy in her private life. 影响你一生的名人励志演讲(视频+mp3+ 演讲稿)--英语演讲专题 kira86 于2012-01-11发布 l 已有6383人浏览 我要评论( 0) | 英语专题 | 【字体:小大】 | 我要投稿

——美国著名电视节目主持人奥普拉·温弗瑞2008年在斯坦福大学毕业典礼上发表的演讲

1、奥斯特洛夫斯基

命运对奥斯特洛夫斯基是残酷的:他念过三年小学,青春消逝在疾驰的战马与枪林弹雨中。16岁时,他腹部与头部严重负伤,右眼失明。20岁时,又因关节硬化而卧床不起。面对着命运的严峻挑战,他深切地感到:“在生活中没比掉队更可怕的事情了。”奥斯特洛夫斯基与命运进行了英勇的抗争:他不想躺在残废荣誉军人的功劳簿上向祖国和人民伸手,他用沸腾的精力读完了函授大学的全部课程,如饥似渴地阅读俄罗斯与世界文学名著。书籍召唤他前进,书籍陪伴他披荆斩棘。 奥斯特洛夫斯基思想的烈马,驰骋在乌克兰与波兰交界的辽阔的原野上,他口授的每一个字母都像无情的子弹,射向入侵的德国强盗。 2.张海迪 1955年秋天在济南出生。5岁患脊髓病,胸以下全部瘫痪。从那时起,张海迪开始了她独到的人生。她无法上学,便在在家自学完中学课程。 在残酷的命运挑战面前,张海迪没有沮丧和沉沦 ,她以顽强的毅力和恒心与疾病做斗争,经受了严峻的考验,对人生充满了信心。她虽然没有机会走进校门,却发愤学习,学完了小学、中学全部课程,自学了大学英语、日语、德语和世界语,并攻读了大学和硕士研究生的课程。 为了对社会作出更大的贡献,她先后自学了十几种医学专著,同时向有经验的医生请教,学会了针灸等医术,为群众无偿治疗

达1万多人次。

我们都是四肢健全的人,所以更我们应该珍惜眼前的学习机会。 3.爱迪生

在爱迪生发明灯泡的时候他失败了很多次 ,当他用到一千多种材料做灯丝的时候,助手对他说:“你已经失败了一千多次了,成功已经变得渺茫,还是放弃吧!”但爱迪生却说:“到现在我的收获还不错,起码我发现有一千多种材料不能做灯丝。”最后,他经过六千多次的实验终于成功了。

我们可以试想,如果爱迪生在助手劝他停止实验的时候放弃了,我们现在会怎么样呢?可能我们还要点只有豆粒般大小的油灯在夜里照明。其实爱迪生的每次试验失败都可以看作是挫折。这么一算,爱迪生发明电灯也就是遇上了六千多次的挫折,这是一个多么惊人的数目啊! 4.林肯

生下来就一贫如洗的林肯,终其一生都在面对挫败,八次竞选八次落败,两次经商失败,甚至还精神崩溃过一次。好多次,他本可以放弃,但他并没有如此,也正因为 他没有放弃,才成为美国历史上最伟大的总统之一。此路艰辛而泥泞。我一只脚滑了一下,另一只脚也因而站不稳;但我缓口气,告诉自己,这不过是滑一跤,并不是死去而爬

不起来。 ——林肯在竞选参议员落败后如是说

我们有的时候受到一次挫折,或经受到一次失败,就灰心丧气,认为自己一无是处,看看爱迪生和林肯,我们就会明白人的一生不是一帆风顺的,关键是学会坚持,永不放弃。 4.霍金

霍金虽然身体的残疾越来越重,但却力图像普通人一样生活,完成自己所能做的任何事情。他甚至是活泼好动的——这听起来有些好笑,在他已经完全无法移动之后,他仍然坚持用唯一可以活动的手指驱动着轮椅在前往办公室的路上“横冲直撞”; ·威廉·霍金认为他一生的贡献是在经典物理的框架里,证明了黑洞和大爆炸奇点的不可避免性,黑洞越变越大;但在量子物理的框架里,他指出,黑洞因辐射而越变越小,大爆炸的奇点不断被量子效应所抹平,而且整个宇宙正是起始于此。

推荐第6篇:名人英语演讲稿3分钟

my chinese dream 我的中国梦 i am very glad to stand here to give thier a short speech.today my topic is that the youth are the future of motherland 很高兴站在这里做这篇短小的演讲,我演讲的主题是青年是祖国的未来。

在准备英语演讲比赛的时候,我本想简单地从网上搜索一些文章作为我演讲的内容。我看过很多文章,有著名主持人的、北大教授的、大学生的,也有初中生的。但是看完之后,我放弃了当初的想法,我甚至为当初的想法感到有一些羞愧。因为今天我站在这里向大家演讲的主题,是一个庄重而严肃的主题;是一个充满荣耀与自豪的主题;是每一个中华儿女共同期盼的主题。每个人都有属于他们自己的中国梦,而我,当然也有一直萦绕在心怀只属于我的中国梦。

so what?s my chinese dream ? finally i will announce. we had learned a lot of knowledge and understood a lot of truth in the book.we had a basic concept to our country at that time.we know that our country is full of sunshine , and we are the future of our country, and our dreams are to be the hope of our motherland. 我的中国梦是什么样的?先卖个关子。

记得刚刚上学那会儿,我们天真无邪。在课本里,我们学到了很多很多知识,也明白了很多很多道理,我们对祖国也有了一个最基本的概念。我们知道我们的祖国到处充满阳光,正在慢慢发展,而我们,就是祖国未来的花朵,未来的希望。我们梦想将来能够成为祖国的希望。

这,是我们最初的中国梦。最真诚的我们,最真诚的梦。

但是,不知道什么时候开始,我们长大了,生活似乎一下子变得和以前不太一样了,与此同时,虽然我们很不想承认但是却又不得不承认的是,我们的思想,我们的为人处世观,我们对我们祖国的看法,也潜移默化中慢慢开始了转变。我们的社会变得到处充满欺骗、冷漠、勾心斗角、压力、腐败、险恶,我们变得暴躁,不冷静,愤世嫉俗。我们的国家,似乎也开始变得千疮百孔。而好多我们亲爱的祖国委以重任培养的青年学生们变得轻浮、急躁,更别提什么梦想,什么中国梦了? are we sick, or is our dear motherland sick? 我很惊讶,当大街上有老人摔倒,我们不敢再去扶起;我很难过,当有人做了好事被报道,更多的人说他做作;我很伤心,当我看到我们众多的青年人变得冷漠、市侩、欺诈以及缺乏理想。

到底是我们病了,还是我们亲爱的祖国病了? i dont want to talk about the construction of our country politics, and also speak impaioned speech on the diaoyu island event .i just want to appeal young people,showing the side of youth,good and confidence.we must learn to organize our own thoughts, correct our own concept, and change our direction to the right side in future life.china dream actually lies in our young generation, especially of the intellectuals. 我的中国梦,不想大谈政治,也不想对钓鱼岛事件发表慷慨激昂的演讲。我只想呼吁,呼吁我们年轻人,呼吁我们祖国的希望能够将我们的青春一面,将我们的善良一面,将我们的自信一面好好展现出来。我们要学会整理自己的思想,端正自己看问题的观念,摆正自己的人生方向。我们的中国梦实际上正掌握在我们自己手上,掌握在我们年青一代,尤其是知识分子手上。 也许,一个人,是渺小的;但是当他和祖国联系起来时,就是伟大的。也许,一个梦想,是渺小的,但是当它成为祖国的梦想时,就是不可估量的。也许,我无法用自己一个人的力量撬起整个中国,但是我们千千万万年轻人一起为祖国的梦想去奋斗时,我们的祖国就足以令世界颤抖、动容。 i dream to construct our beauty china with millions of young people who have the same dream.we do it without exaggeration but only with persistence. 我梦想和万千具有相同梦想的年轻人去建设我们的美丽中国,没有虚浮,只有执着,只有奋斗,只有勇于担当。这就是我的中国梦! that is my speech,thanks everyone. 我的演讲就到这里,谢谢大家。 we are the world ,we are the future 世界是我们的,未来是我们的 someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”.i don?t know who wrote these words, but i?ve always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be.we are all in the position of the farmers.if we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest.if we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all. 一些人说?我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。?我不知道谁写了这些话,但是我一直很喜欢它,因为它提醒了我,我们能够创造我们想要的未来。 we are young.“how to spend the youth?” it is a meaningful question.to answer it, first i have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” youth is not a time of life, it?s a state of mind.it?s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees.it?s the matter of the will.it?s the freshne of the deep spring of life. 我们都是农夫。如果我们播下好的种子,我们将会丰收。如果我们的种子很差,有很多草籽,收割的将是无用的庄稼。如果我们什么也不播种,什么收获也没有。 youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease.this often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 .nobody grows old merely by a number of years .we grow old by deserting our ideals.years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul .worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust . 我们是年轻的。?怎样度过青春??这是个有意义的问题。为了去回答它,我首先要问?从‘青春’这个词中你能理解到什么?? 青春不是人生的一个时期,而是精神的一种状态。青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝,而是深沉的意志,。青春是生命的深泉在涌流. whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ?s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what?s next and the joy of the game of living .in the center of your heart and my heart there?s a wirele station : so long as it receives meages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young . a poet said “to see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour.several days ago, i had a chance to listen to a lecture.i learnt a lot there.i?d like to share it with all of you.let?s show our right palms.we can see three lines that show how our love.career and life is.i have a short line of life.what about yours? i wondered whether we could see our future in this way.well, let?s make a fist.where is our future? where is our love, career, and life? tell me.yeah, it is in our hands.it is held in ourselves. 一位诗人说?从一粒沙看世界,从一朵花看天堂,把无限放在你的手掌,永恒在一刹那里收藏?。几天前,我有了一个听讲座的机会,从中我学到了很多东西。现在,我想把这些与大家共享。让我们伸出右手,我们可以看到手掌中的展示我们的爱,事业和生活的三条线。我在生活方面这条线很短,那你们的呢?我想知道我们是否可以用这种办法去看我们的未来。好的,让我们一起握拳。我们的未来在哪儿?我们的爱、事业和生活在哪儿?告诉我!是的,它们就在我们的手中。它们被我们自己掌握着。 we all want the future to be better than the past.but the future can go better itself.don?t cry because it is over, smile because it happened.from the past, we?ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher.we?ve learnt that we can?t choose how we feel, but we can choose what篇2:名人英语演讲稿 名人英语演讲稿 tribute to diana 致戴安娜——查尔斯·斯宾塞

名人名校励志英语演讲稿:Dare to Compete, Dare to Care 敢于竞争,勇于关爱---美国国务卿希拉里·克林顿耶鲁大学演讲

Dare to compete.Dare to care.Dare to dream.Dare to love.Practice the art of making poible.And no matter what happens, even if you hear shouts behind, keep going.要敢于竞争,敢于关爱,敢于憧憬,大胆去爱!要努力创造奇迹!无论发生什么,即使有人在你背后大声喊叫,也要勇往直前。

-----

It is such an honor and pleasure for me to be back at Yale, especially on the occasion of the 300th anniversary.I have had so many memories of my time here, and as Nick was speaking I thought about how I ended up at Yale Law School.And it tells a little bit about how much progre we’ve made.

What I think most about when I think of Yale is not just the politically charged atmosphere and not even just the superb legal education that I received.It was at Yale that I began work that has been at the core of what I have cared about ever since.I began working with New Haven legal services representing children.And I studied child development, abuse and neglect at the Yale New Haven Hospital and the Child Study Center.I was lucky enough to receive a civil rights internship with Marian Wright Edelman at the Children’s Defense Fund, where I went to work after I graduated.Those experiences fueled in me a paion to work for the benefit of children, particularly the most vulnerable.

Now, looking back, there is no way that I could have predicted what path my life would have taken.I didn’t sit around the law school, saying, well, you know, I think I’ll graduate and then I’ll go to work at the Children’s Defense Fund, and then the impeachment inquiry, and Nixon retired or resigns, I’ll go to Arkansas.I didn’t think like that.I was taking each day at a time.

But, I’ve been very fortunate because I’ve always had an idea in my mind about what I thought was important and what gave my life meaning and purpose.A set of values and beliefs that have helped me navigate the shoals, the sometimes very treacherous sea, to illuminate my own true desires, despite that others say about what l should care about and believe in.A paion to succeed at what l thought was important and children have always provided that lone star, that guiding light.Because l have that absolute conviction that every child, especially in this, the most bleed of nations that has ever existed on the face of earth, that every child deserves the opportunity to live up to his or her God-given potential.

But you know that belief and conviction-it may make for a personal miion statement, but standing alone, not translated into action, it means very little to anyone else, particularly to those for whom you have those concerns.

When I was thinking about running for the United States Senate-which was such an enormous decision to make, one I never could have dreamed that I would have been making when I was here on campus-I visited a school in New York City and I met a young woman, who was a star athlete.

I was there because of Billy Jean King promoting an HBO special about women in sports called “Dare to compete.” It was about Title IX and how we finally, thanks to government action, provided opportunities to girls and women in sports.

And although I played not very well at intramural sports, I have always been a strong supporter of women in sports.And I was introduced by this young woman, and as I went to shake her hand she obviously had been reading the newspapers about people saying I should or shouldn’t run for the Senate.And I was congratulating her on the speech she had just made and she held onto my hand and she said, “Dare to compete, Mrs.Clinton.Dare to compete.”

I took that to heart because it is hard to compete sometimes, especially in public ways, when your failures are there for everyone to see and you don’t know what is going to happen from one day to the next.And yet so much of life, whether we like to accept it or not, is competing with ourselves to be the best we can be, being involved in claes or profeions or just life, where we know we are competing with others.

I took her advice and I did compete because I chose to do so.And the biggest choices that you’ll face in your life will be yours alone to make.I’m sure you’ll receive good advice.You’re got a great education to go back and reflect about what is right for you, but you eventually will have to choose and I hope that you will dare to compete.And by that I don’t mean the kind of cutthroat competition that is too often characterized by what is driving America today.I mean the small voice inside you that says to you, you can do it, you can take this risk, you can take this next step.

And it doesn’t mean that once having made that choice you will always succeed.In fact, you won’t.There are setbacks and you will experience difficult disappointments.You will be slowed down and sometimes the breath will just be knocked out of you.But if you carry with you the values and beliefs that you can make a difference in your own life, first and foremost, and then in the lives of others.You can get back up, you can keep going.

But it is also important, as I have found, not to take yourself too seriously, because after all, every one of us here today, none of us is deserving of full credit.I think every day of the bleings my birth gave me without any doing of my own.I chose neither my family nor my country, but they as much as anything I’ve ever done, determined my course.

You compare my or your circumstances with those of the majority of people who’ve ever lived or who are living right now, they too often are born knowing too well what their futures will be.They lack the freedom to choose their life’s path.They’re imprisoned by circumstances of poverty and ignorance, bigotry, disease, hunger, oppreion and war.

So, dare to compete, yes, but maybe even more difficult, dare to care.Dare to care about people who need our help to succeed and fulfill their own lives.There are so many out there and sometimes all it takes is the simplest of gestures or helping hands and many of you understand that already.I know that the numbers of graduates in the last 20 years have worked in community organizations, have tutored, have committed themselves to religious activities.

You have been there trying to serve because you have believed both that it was the right thing to do and because it gave something back to you.You have dared to care.

Well, dare to care to fight for equal justice for all, for equal pay for women, against hate crimes and bigotry.Dare to care about public schools without qualified teachers or adequate resources.Dare to care about protecting our environment.Dare to care about the 10 million children in our country who lack health insurance.Dare to care about the one and a half million children who have a parent in jail.The seven million people who suffer from HIV/AIDS.And thank you for caring enough to demand that our nation do more to help those that are suffering throughout this world with HIV/AIDS, to prevent this pandemic from spreading even further.

And I’ll also add, dare enough to care about our political proce.You know, as I go and speak with students I’m impreed so much, not only in formal settings, on campuses, but with my daughter and her friends, about how much you care, about how willing you are to volunteer and serve.You may have mied the last wave of the dot.com revolution, but you’ve understood that the dot.community revolution is there for you every single day.And you’ve been willing to be part of remarking lives in our community.

And yet, there is a real resistance, a turning away from the political proce.I hope that some of you will be public servants and will even run for office yourself, not to win a position to make and impreion on your friends at your 20th reunion, but because you understand how important it is for each of us as citizens to make a commitment to our democracy.

Your generation, the first one born after the social upheavals of the 60’s and 70’s, in the midst of the technological advances of the 80’s and 90’s, are inheriting an economy, a society and a government that has yet to understand fully, or even come to grips with, our rapidly changing world.

And so bring your values and experiences and insights into politics.Dare to help make, not just a difference in politics, but create a different politics.Some have called you the generation of choice.You’ve been raised with multiple choice tests, multiple channels, multiple websites and multiple lifestyles.You’ve grown up choosing among alternatives that were either not imagined, created or available to people in prior generations.

You’ve been invested with far more personal power to customize your life, to make more free choices about how to live than was ever thought poible.And I think as I look at all the surveys and research that is done, your choices reflect not only freedom, but personal responsibility.

The social indicators, not the headlines, the social indicators tell a positive story: drug use and cheating and arrests being down, been pregnancy and suicides, drunk driving deaths being down.Community service and religious involvement being up.But if you look at the area of voting among 18 to 29 year olds, the numbers tell a far more troubling tale.Many of you I know believe that service and community volunteerism is a better way of solving the iues facing our country than political engagement, because you believe-choose one of the following multiples or choose them all-government either can’t understand or won’t make the right choices because of political preures, inefficiency, incompetence or big money influence.

Well, I admit there is enough truth in that critique to justify feeling disconnected and alienated.But at bottom, that’s a personal cop-out and a national peril.Political conditions maximize the conditions for individual opportunity and responsibility as well as community.Americorps and the Peace Corps exist because of political decisions.Our air, water, land and food will be clean and safe because of political choices.Our ability to cure disease or log onto the Internet have been advanced because of politically determined investments.Ethnic cleansing in Kosovo ended because of political leadership.Your parents and grandparents traveled here by means of government built and subsidized transportation systems.Many used GI Bills or government loans, as I did, to attend college.

Now, I could, as you might gue, go on and on, but the point is to remind us all that government is us and each generation has to stake its claim.And, as stakeholders, you will have to decide whether or not to make the choice to participate.It is hard and it is, bringing change in a democracy, particularly now.There’s so much about our modern times that conspire to lower our sights, to weaken our vision-as individuals and communities and even nations.

It is not the vast conspiracy you may have heard about; rather it’s a silent conspiracy of cynicism and indifference and alienation that we see every day, in our popular culture and in our prodigious consumerism.

But as many have said before and as Vaclav Havel has said to memorably, “It cannot suffice just to invent new machines, new regulations and new institutions.It is neceary to understand differently and more perfectly the true purpose of our existence on this Earth and of our deeds.” And I think we are called on to reject, in this time of bleings that we enjoy, those who will tear us apart and tear us down and instead to liberate our God-given spirit, by being willing to dare to dream of a better world.

During my campaign, when times were tough and days were long I used to think about the example of Harriet Tubman, a heroic New Yorker, a 19th century Moses, who risked her life to bring hundreds of slaves to freedom.She would say to those who she gathered up in the South where she kept going back year after year from the safety of Auburn, New York, that no matter what happens, they had to keep going.If they heard shouts behind them, they had to keep going.If they heard gunfire or dogs, they had to keep going to freedom.Well, those aren’t the risks we face.It is more the silence and apathy and indifference that dogs our heels.

Thirty-two years ago, I spoke at my own graduation from Wellesley, where I did call on my fellow clamates to reject the notion of limitations on our ability to effect change and instead to embrace the idea that the goal of education should be human liberation and the freedom to practice with all the skill of our being the art of making poible.

For after all, our fate is to be free.To choose competition over apathy, caring over indifference, vision over myopia, and love over hate.

Just as this is a special time in your lives, it is for me as well because my daughter will be graduating in four weeks, graduating also from a wonderful place with a great education and beginning a new life.And as I think about all the parents and grandparents who are out there, I have a sense of what their feeling.Their hearts are leaping with joy, but it’s hard to keep tears in check because the presence of our children at a time and place such as this is really a fulfillment of our own American dreams.Well, I applaud you and all of your love, commitment and hard work, just as I applaud your daughters and sons for theirs.

And I leave these graduates with the same meage I hope to leave with my graduate.Dare to compete.Dare to care.Dare to dream.Dare to love.Practice the art of making poible.And no matter what happens, even if you hear shouts behind, keep going.

Thank you and God ble you all.

在全世界,戴安娜是同情心、责任心、风度和美丽的化身,是无私和人道的象征,是维护真正被践踏的权益的旗手,是一个超越国界的英国女孩,是一个带有自然的高贵气质的人,是一个不分阶层的人。 this is the text of earl spencers tribute to his sister at her funeral.there is some very deep, powerful and heartfelt sentiment.would that those at whom it is aimed would take heed.the versions posted on several news services had minor errors.this is precisely as it was deliverd. i stand before you today the representative of a family in grief, in a country in mourning before a world in shock. we are all united not only in our desire to pay our respects to diana but rather in our need to do so. for such was her extraordinary appeal that the tens of millions of people taking part in this service all over the world via television and radio who never actually met her, feel that they, too, lost someone close to them in the early hours of sunday morning.it is a more remarkable tribute to diana than i can ever hope to offer her today. today is our chance to say thank you for the way you brightened our lives, even though god granted you but half a life.we will all feel cheated, always, that you were taken from us so young and yet we must learn to be grateful that you came along at all. only now you are gone do we truly appreciate what we are now without and we want you to know that life without you is very, very difficult. we have all despaired at our lo over the past week and only the strength of the meage you gave us through your years of giving has afforded us the strength to move forward. there is a temptation to rush to canonize your memory.there is no need to do so.you stand tall enough as a human being of unique qualities not to need to be seen as a saint.indeed to sanctify your memory would be to mi out on the very core of your being, your wonderfully mischievous sense of humor with the laugh that bent you double, your joy for life transmitted wherever you took your smile, and the sparkle in those unforgettable eyes, your boundle energy which you could barely contain. but your greatest gift was your intuition, and it was a gift you used wisely.this is what underpinned all your wonderful attributes.and if we look to analyze what it was about you that had such a wide appeal, we find it in your instinctive feel for what was really important in all our lives. without your god-given sensitivity, we would be immersed in greater ignorance at the anguish of aids and hiv sufferers, the plight of the homele, the isolation of lepers, the random destruction of land mines.diana explained to me once that it was her innermost feelings of suffering that made it poible for her to connect with her constituency of the rejected. the world sensed this part of her character and cherished her for her vulnerability, whilst admiring her for her honesty.the last time i saw diana was on july the first, her birthday, in london, when typically she was not taking time to celebrate her special day with friends but was guest of honor at a fund-raising charity evening. she sparkled of course, but i would rather cherish the days i spent with her in march when she came to visit me and my children in our home in south africa.i am proud of the fact that apart from when she was on public display meeting president mandela, we managed to contrive to stop the ever-present paparazzi from getting a single picture of her. that meant a lot to her. these were days i will always treasure.it was as if wed been transported back to our childhood, when we spent such an enormous amount of time together, the two youngest in the family. fundamentally she hadnt changed at all from the big sister who mothered me as a baby, fought with me at school and endured those long train journeys between our parents homes with me at weekends.it is a tribute to her level-headedne and strength that despite the most bizarre life imaginable after her childhood, she remained intact, true to herself. there is no doubt that she was looking for a new direction in her life at this time.she talked endlely of getting away from england, mainly because of the treatment she received at the hands of the newspapers. i dont think she ever understood why her genuinely good intentions were sneered at by the media, why there appeared to be a permanent quest on their behalf to bring her down.it is baffling.my own, and only, explanation is that genuine goodne is threatening to those at the opposite end of the moral spectrum. it is a point to remember that of all the ironies about diana, perhaps the greatest was this; that a girl given the name of the ancient godde of hunting was, in the end, the most hunted person of the modern age. she would want us today to pledge ourselves to protecting her beloved boys william and harry from a similar fate.and i do this here, diana, on your behalf.we will not allow them to suffer the anguish that used regularly to drive you to tearful despair. beyond that, on behalf of your mother and sisters, i pledge that we, your blood family, will do all we can to continue the imaginative and loving way in which you were steering these two exceptional young men, so that their souls are not simply immersed by duty and tradition but can sing openly as you planned. we fully respect the heritage into which they have both been born, and will always respect and encourage them in their royal role.but we, like you, recognize the need for them to experience as many different aspects of life as poible, to arm them spiritually and emotionally for the years ahead.i know you would have expected nothing le from us. william and harry, we all care desperately for you today.we are all chewed up with sadne at the lo of a woman who wasnt even our mother.how great your suffering is we cannot even imagine. i would like to end by thanking god for the small mercies he has shown us at this dreadful time; for taking diana at her most beautiful and radiant and when she had joy in her private life. hello,every body !thank you .thank you ,every body!all right,every body go ahead and have a seat.how is everybody doing today?i am here with students at wakefield higt school.and we have students tuning in from all acro america,from kindergraten through 12th grade.and i am just so glad that all could join us today .and i want to thank wakefield for being such an outstanding host .give yourselves a big round of appluse. i know that for many of you ,today is the first day of school.and for thoses of you in kindengraten ,or starting middle or high school ,is you first day in a new school,so is understandable if you are a little nervous.i imagine there are some seniors out there who are felling pretty good right now,with just one more year to go .and no matter grade you are in,some of you are probably wishing it were still sumer and you could have stayed in bed just a little bit longer this morning. i know that felling ,when i was young,my family lived oversea.i lived in indonesia for a few years.and my mothor,she didn’t have the money to send me where all the american kids went to school ,but she thought it was important for me to keep up with an american education,so she decided to teach me extra leons herself ,monday though firday ,but she had to go to work.the only time she could do it was at 4:30 in the morning . mr.president, ladies and gentlemen,good afternoon! 主席先生,各位来宾,大家午安! before i introduce our cultural programs, only tell you one thing first about 2008.youre going tohave a great time in beijing. 在我介绍我们的文化项目之前,首先我要告诉你们一件有关于2008的事情,那就是你们将在北京度过一段美好的时光。 many people are fascinated by chin sport legends in the history.for example, back to songdynasty, which was the 11th century, people in our country started to play a game called cuju,which is regarded as the origin of ancient football.the game was so popular that women were alsoparticipating.now, you would probably understand why our womens football team does so welltoday. 很多人都对中国历史上的体育传奇感兴趣。例如,早在宋代,大约11世纪,人们开始玩一个叫蹴鞠的游戏,这被看作是足球古老的起源。这个游戏很受欢迎,妇女也来参加。现在,你就会明白,为什么我们的女子足球队这么厉害了。 there are a lot more wonderful and exciting events waiting for you in the new beijing, a modernmetropolis with 3,000 years of cultural treasures woven into the urban tapestry.along with theiconic imagery of the forbidden city, the temple of heaven and the great wall, the city also offersan endle mixture of theatres, museums, discos, all kinds of restaurants and shopping malls whichwill amaze and delight you. volve youngpeople from around the world.during the olympics, these activites will also be held in the olympicvillage and in the city for the benefit of the athletes. 基于丝绸之路带来的灵感,我们的火炬接力将有新的突破,从奥林匹亚开始,穿越一些最古老的国家文明古国——希腊、罗马、埃及、拜占庭、美索不达米亚、波斯、阿拉伯、印度和中国。携带的信息“分享和平,分享奥运”永恒的火焰将达到新的高峰,因为它将穿越喜马拉雅山在世界的最高峰——珠穆朗玛峰。在中国,圣火还将穿过西藏,穿越长江与黄河,游历长城,并拜访香港,澳门,台湾和56个民族的人们,在这一历程之中,圣火的观看人数将超越所有之前的传递,儿它也将被激励更多的人参与到奥林匹克的大家庭中。 i am afraid i can not give you the full picture of our cultural programs within such a short period oftime.before i end, let me share with you one story.seven hundred years ago, amazed by hisincredible description of a far away land of great beauty, people asked marco polo whether hitories about china were true.and marco answered: what i have told you was not even half ofwhat i saw.actually, what we have shown you here today is only a fraction of the beijing thatawaits you. 在这么短的时间里,我恐怕不能介绍现在的中华全貌与我们的文化,在我结束前,让我跟大家分享这样一个故事,七百年前,马可波罗来到中国,马可波罗曾对中国的美丽有过惊奇的描述,人们对他描述感到十分惊讶,人们问马可波罗他的故事是不是真的,他回答道:我告诉你的连我看到的一半都没有达到。其实,我们已经介绍的只是一小部分,北京正在等待着你!

ladies and gentlemen, 我相信北京将向你们所有人证明它是一片神奇的土地, 不论是运动员,观众,还是全世界的电视观众。来吧,和我们一起来吧!谢谢主席先生。谢谢大家。 现在再次由请何振梁先生讲话。

罗斯福:国会珍珠港演讲(中英文对照)

Mr.Vice President,Mr.Speaker,Members of the Senate,and of the House of

Representatives:

Yesterday,December 7th,1941--a date which will live in infamy--the United

States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air

forces of the Empire of Japan.

The United States was at peace with that nation and,at the solicitation of

Japan,was still in conversation with its government and its emperor

looking toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacific.

点这儿在线下载:罗斯福:国会珍珠港演讲音频

Indeed,one hour after Japanese air squadrons had commenced bombing in the

American island of Oahu,the Japanese ambaador to the United States and

his colleague delivered to our Secretary of State aformal reply to arecent

American meage.And while this reply stated that it seemed usele to

continue the existing diplomatic negotiations,it contained no threat or

hint of war or of armed attack.

It will be recorded that the distance of Hawaii from Japan makes it

obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks

ago.During the intervening time,the Japanese government has deliberately

sought to deceive the United States by false statements and expreions of

hope for continued peace.

The attack yesterday on the Hawaiian islands has caused severe damage to

American naval and military forces.I regret to tell you that very many

American lives have been lost.In addition,American ships have been

reported torpedoed on the high seas between San Francis co and

HonoluluYesterday,the Japanese government also launched an attack against

Malaya.

Last night,Japanese forces attacked Hong Kong.Last night,Japanese forces attacked Guam.Last night,Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands.Last night,the Japanese attacked Wake Island.

And thi--orning,the Japanese attacked Midway Island.

Japan has,therefore,undertaken asurprise offensive extending throughout

the Pacific area.The facts of yesterday and today speak for themselves.The

people of the United States have already formed their opinions and well

understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation.

As commander in chief of the Army and Navy,I have directed that all

measures be taken for our defense.But always will our whole nation

remember the character of the onslaught against us.

No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated

invasion,the American people in their righteou--ight will win through to

absolute victory.

I believe that Iinterpret the will of the Congre and of the people when

Iaert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost,but will

make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again

endanger us.

Hostilities exist.There is no blinking at the fact that our people,our

territory,and our interests are in grave danger.With confidence in our armed forces,with the unbounding determination of our people,we will gain the inevitable triumph--so help us God.I ask that the Congre declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly

attack by Japan on Sunday,December 7th,1941,a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese empire.以下是富兰克林·罗斯福国会珍珠港演讲中文翻译: 致美国国会:

合众国当时同该国处于和平状态,并且,根据日本的请求,当时仍在同该国政府和该国天皇举行着会话,但愿维持承平洋地域的和平,实际上,就在日本空队伍中队已经起头轰炸美国瓦胡岛然后一钟头,日本驻合众国大使及其同事还向国务卿提交处理了对美国最近致日方的信函的正式答复。虽则复函声言继续现行交际谈判已一无用法,它并未包罗关于战争或武装进击的威胁或暗示。

应该记录在案的是:思量到夏威夷同日本的间隔,此次进击显然是很多天乃至若干礼拜之前就已蓄谋筹谋的。在筹谋的历程中,日本政府通过虚假的声明和表示但愿维护和平处心积虑地棍骗合众国。

昨天对夏威夷群岛的进击,给美国海陆军军队造成了紧张的损伤。我遗憾地告诉各位,很多美国人损失了生命。此外,据报告,美国商船在旧金山和火奴鲁鲁之间的公海上也遭到了鱼雷袭击。

昨天,日本政府已策动了对马来亚的进击。

昨夜,日本军队袭击了喷鼻港。

昨夜,日本军队攻击了关岛。

昨夜,日本军队攻击了菲律宾群岛。 昨夜,日本人袭击了威克岛。 今晨,日本人袭击了中途岛。 因此,日本在整个承平洋地区范围承平洋地区范围策动了俄然攻势。发生在昨天和今天的事证实了这一点。美国人民很是明白,并且十分清楚这关系到我们国家的安全和保存的紧张事态。

作为三军总司令,我已申令,采取一切措施保卫我们的国家。

我们整个国家都将永远记住此次对我们的无耻进击。

不论要用多长的时间才气战胜此次蓄谋已久的入侵,美国人民以自己的公理力量必患上赢患上绝对的胜利。

我现在断言,我们不仅要作出最大的努力来保卫我们自己,我们还将确保这种形式的违信弃义永远不会再威胁到我们。我相信抒发了国会和人民的意志。

战争已经起头。我国人民,我国国土和我国利益都处于紧张危险之中,对此我们不必闪烁其辞。

相信我们的武装军队--依靠我国人民的坚定刻意--我们必将取患上最后的胜利--愿天主助我!

我要求国会宣布:自1941年12月7日--礼拜天日本举行无缘无故和鄙俚胆小的进击时起,合众国和日本帝国之间已处于战争状态。美国第32任总统富兰克林·D·罗斯福(Franklin

D.Roosevelt)(1933-1945),一直被视为美国历史上最伟大的总统之一,是20世纪美国最孚人望和受爱戴的总统,也是美国历史上惟一蝉联4届总统的人,从1933年3月起,直至1945年4月去世时截止,担任职务长达12年。曾赢患上美国民众长达7周的高支持率,创下历史记录。

富兰克林·德拉诺·罗斯福出生于纽约。父亲詹姆斯·罗斯福是一个百万财主。母亲萨拉·德拉诺比父亲小26岁。罗斯福曾就读于哈佛大学和哥伦比亚大学。1910年任纽约州参议员。1913年任海军部副部长。1921年因患脊髓灰质炎致残。1928年任纽约州长。1932年竞选总统获胜。执政后,以\"新政\"对付经济危机,颇有成效,故获患上1936年、1940年、1944年大选蝉联。第二次世界大战初,美国采取不参与政策,但对希特勒采取倔强手段,以\"租借法\"支持同盟国。1941年底,美国参战。罗斯福代表美国两次参加同盟国\"三巨头\"会议。罗斯福政府提出了轴心国必需无条件投降的原则并获患上了实施。罗斯福提出了建立联合国的构想,也获患上了实施。63岁时由于脑溢血去世。

很多网友相信都看过影戏《珍珠港》(Pearl

Harbor),第二次世界大战在欧亚大陆打的如火如荼,而跨海相隔的美国却隔岸不雅火,仿佛事不关己。直至1941年12月7日早晨7点53分,日本奇袭美军在夏威夷的基地珍珠港。次日,美国总统罗斯福在国会愤然揭晓了这篇的演讲,至此,承平洋战争全面爆发。日本狙击珍珠港的历史违景:

日本从1941年中起头向东南亚的发展引起了这个地域主要强国的不安,为了给日本一点颜色,美国冻结了对日本的经济贸易,其中重要的是高辛烷石油,没有石油日本的飞机无法仙游,舰艇无法在海中行驶,日本就无法继续对外扩张。

加上日本的石油只能维持半年的时间,日本明白,要么从其中国撤军,停止对外扩张,交际上向美国挨近。要么自组旗帜,南下夺取战略资源,继续加强对外侵略。南洋有美国,英国,荷兰的半殖民地,进兵南洋就等于向美盎司国宣战。

承平洋上的珍珠港是交通的主要枢纽,夏威夷东距美国西海岸,西距日本,西南到诸岛群,北到阿拉斯加和白令海峡,都在2000海里到3000海里之间,跨越承平洋南来北往的飞机,都以夏威夷为中续站。日本认为先在承平洋上夺取制空制海权就意味着南下的道路没有阻碍畅通,必需先摧毁珍珠港,于是日本筹谋了珍珠港奇袭。

日本政府决定占领东南亚的资源作为对禁运的回答。他们不克不及假定,假如他们起头行动了,美国会在一旁袖手旁不雅?这是山本半百六思量事先覆灭美国在承平洋的力量的原因。日本联合舰队司令山本半百六袭击珍珠港的海军基地的计划是实现这个战略目的中的一个战术步骤。日本资料显示山本于1941年初起头思量袭击珍珠港。数月后,在做了一些预先考察后,他被批准起头准备这个行动。日本海军内部有强烈的阻挡这样一个行动的力量。山本威胁,假如这个行动被中止的话,他将引退。1941年夏,在一次由日本天皇亲自出席的御前会议上,这个行动正式被批准。11月,在另一次天皇亲自出席的御前会议上,出兵承平洋的决定被批准。在11月的会议上还决定,只有在美国完全同意日本主要要求的的环境下才放弃此次行动。

袭击珍珠港的目的是为了(至少暂时)覆灭美国海军在承平洋上的主力。袭击珍珠港计划的筹谋者山本半百六本人认为一次成功的袭击只能带来一年左右的战略上风。从1931年起头日本与中邦交战,此前天本占领了满洲。从1941年1月日本起头计划袭击珍珠港以取患上战略上风,颠末一些海军内部的讨论和争执后从年中起头日本海军起头为此次行动举行严格的训练。

日本计划的一部分是在袭击前(并且必需在袭击前)中止与美国的协商。到12月7日截止,日本驻华盛顿大使中的交际官一直在与美外洋交部举行很广泛的讨论,包括美国对日本在1941年夏入侵东南亚的反应。袭击前天本大使从日本交际部获患上了一封很长的电报,并受令在袭击前(华盛顿时间下午一时)将它递交国务卿科德尔·赫尔。但大使人员未能实时解码和打印这篇很长的国书。最后这篇宣战书在袭击后才递交给美国。这个延迟增长了美国对此次袭击的愤怒,它是罗斯福总统将这天称为\"一个无耻的日期\"的主要原因。山本上将似乎同意这个不雅点。在日美合拍的影戏《虎!虎!虎!》中他被援用说:\"我恐怕我们将一个甜睡的伟人叫醒了,现在他充满了愤怒。\"(这句话山本本人可能从未说过,即使如此他似乎的确如此觉患上)。

实际上这篇国书在日本递交美国前就已经被美国解码了。乔治·卡特利特·马歇尔在读过这篇国著作后面立刻向夏威夷送出了一张紧急警告,但由于美军内部传送系统的混乱这篇电报不患上不通过民用电信局来传达。在路上它落空了它的\"紧急\"标志。袭击数钟头后一个年轻的日裔美国邮递员将这张电保送到美军司令部。林肯(1809~1865)

Lincoln,Abraham

美国总统(1861~1865)。1809年2月12日生于肯塔基州。自幼从事体力劳动,成年后当过雇农、船夫、小市肆伴计,也做过村落邮务员和土地测量员。

林肯没有受过系统的教诲,可是通过自学,涉猎了关于法律、文学、修辞学及历史等方面的书籍,尤其是专攻法律。1834~1840年4次被选入伊利诺伊州议会。1836年通过律师资格考试,开业当律师。1838年公开阻挡奴隶制,成为州议会辉格党的领袖。

1847年,当选为美国国会众议员。他的主张和活动代表北方资产阶层的利益。阻挡奴隶制度,但不是废奴主义者,阻挡立刻解放奴隶,更阻挡解放奴隶而不给奴隶主以赔偿。因此,在阻挡奴隶制问题上他归属温和派。1856年加入共和党。在1860年的总统选举中,共和党获胜,林肯当选为总统。不久,南方奴隶主策动叛乱,挑起南北战争。1862年五月林肯颁布《宅地法》,划定公民缴付10美元登记费,可在西部领取64.74公顷土地,耕种5年后归其所有。林肯为了早日恢复联邦的统一而积极筹谋和带领战争,但他最初不敢触动南方奴隶制度。1862年9月22日,由于战况不利和人--动的压力,揭晓预报性的《解放宣言》草案。这个宣言标志着林肯从阻挡奴隶制度改变为废奴主义者。1862年末,他不顾保守分子一再施加的压力,拒不收回关于解放奴隶的决定,并在1863年1月1日揭晓正式的《解放宣言》。厥后又竭尽全尽力促使使国会两院通过宪法第13条修正案。该修正案划定在合众国国土上永远禁绝奴隶制。为了把阻挡奴隶制的战争举行到底,1863年,他坚决征召黑人参加部队,使成千累万的黑人走上战场,为战争的胜利作出了伟大的贡献。1864年3月,他升引U.S.格兰特为联邦军总司令,这对于内战的最后胜利起了相当重要的作用。

1864年11月林肯再次当选为总统。1865年4月14日晚,林肯在华盛顿的福特剧院里被维护奴隶制的狂热分子J.W.布思开枪打伤,翌晨逝世。林肯:葛底斯堡演讲(中英文)

The Gettysburg Addre Gettysburg,Pennsylvania November 19,1863 Four score

and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent,a new

nation,conceived in Liberty,and dedicated to the proposition that all men

are created equal.

Now we are engaged in agreat civil war,testing whether that nation,or any

nation so conceived and so dedicated,can long endure.We are met on agreat

battle-field of that war.We have come to dedicate aportion of that

field,as afinal resting place for those who here gave their lives that

that nation might live.It is altogether fitting and proper that we should

do this.

But,in alarger sense,we can not dedicate--we can not consecrate--we can

not hallow--this ground.The brave men,living and dead,who struggled

here,have consecrated it,far above our poor power to add or detract.The

world will little note,nor long remember what we say here,but it can never

forget what they did here.It is for us the living,rather,to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased

devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of

devotion--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died

in vain--that this nation,under God,shall have anew birth of freedom--and that government of the people,by the people,for the people,shall not perish from the earth.主讲:亚伯拉罕林肯

时间:1863年11月19日

地点:美国,宾夕法尼亚,葛底斯堡

八十七年之前,我们的祖先在这大陆上建立了一个国家,它孕育于自由,并且投身给一种理念,即所有人都是小时候起平等的。

时下,我们正在从事一次伟大的内战,我们在磨练,究竟这个国家,或任何一个有这种主张和这种信仰的国家,是否能长久存在。我们在那次战争的一个伟大的战场上集会。我们来到这里,奉献阿谁战场上的一部分土地,作为在此地为阿谁国家的保存而牺牲了自己生命的人的永世眠息之所。我们这样做,是十分合情合理的。

可是,就更深一层意义而言,我们是无从奉献这片土地的--无从使它成为圣地--也不克不及把它变为许多人景仰之所。那些在这里战斗的猛士,活着的和死去的,已使这块土地神圣化了,远非我们的菲薄能力所能左右。世人会半大注意,更不会长久想的起来我们在此地所说的话,然而他们将永远忘不了这些人在这里所做的事。相反,我们活着的人应该投身于那些曾在此作战的许多人所英勇推动而尚未完成的事情。我们应该在此投身于我们面前所留存的伟大事情--由于他们的庆幸牺牲,我们要更坚定地致力于他们曾作最后全数贡献的阿谁事业--我们在此立志宣誓,不克不及让他们白白死去--要使这个国家在天主的保佑之下,获患上新生的自由--要使那民有、民治、民享的政府不致从地球上消失。林肯的葛底斯堡演讲是美国文学中最漂亮、最富有诗意的文章之一。虽则这是一篇祝贺军事胜利的演讲,但它没有好战之气;相反地,这是一篇感人肺腑的颂辞,赞美那些作出最后牺牲的人,以及他们为之投身的那些抱负。我们从其中可以看出林肯的思想,可以体会到林肯伟大的人格和强大的精超过常人的力量量。让我们记住世界上这样一个伟大的人物,并以他为人生的榜样!林肯第二次就职演讲

Second Inaugural Addre by Abraham Lincoln March 4,1865 Fellow-Countrymen:

At this second appearing to take the oath of the presidential office there

is le occasion for an extended addre than there was at the first.Then

astatement somewhat in detail of acourse to be pursued seemed fitting and

proper.Now,at the expiration of four years,during which public

declarations have been constantly called forth on every point and phase of

his great contest which still absorbs the attention and engroes the

energies of the nation,little that is new could be presented.The progre

of our arms,upon which all else chiefly depends,is as well known to the

public as to myself,and it is,I trust,reasonably satisfactory and

encouraging to all.With high hope for the future,no prediction in regard

to it is ventured.

On the occasion corresponding to this four years ago all thoughts were

anxiously directed to an impending civil war.All dreaded it;all sought to

avert it.While the inaugural addre was being delivered from this

place,devoted altogether to saving teing delivered from thisurgent agents

were in the city seeking to destroy it without war-seeking to diolve the

Union and divide effects by negotiation.Both parties deprecated war,but

one of them would make war rather than let the nation survive,and the

other would accept war rather than let it perish,and the war

came.One-eighth of the whole population were colored slaves,not

distributed generally over the Union,but localized in the southern part of

it.Their slaves constituted apeculiar and powerful interest.

All knew that this interest was somehow the cause of the war.To

strengthen,perpetuate,and extend this interest was the object for which

the insurgents would rend the Union even by war,while the Government

claimed no right to do more than to restrict the territorial enlargement

of it.Neither party expected for the war the magnitude or the

duration,which it has alread yattained.Neither anticipated that the cause

of the conflict might cease with or even before the conflict itself should

cease.Each looked for an easier triumph,and aresult le fundamental and

astounding.Both read the same Bible and pray to the same God,and each

invokes His aid against the other.

It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask ajust God\'s aistance

in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men\'s faces,but let us

judge not,that we be not judged.That of neither has been answered

fully.The Almighty has His own purposes.\"Woe unto the world because of

offenses;for it must need be that offenses come,but woe to that man by

whom the offense comet.\"

If we shall suppose that American slavery is one of those offenses

which,in the providence of God,must needs come,but which,having continued

through His appointed time,He now wills to remove,and that He gives to

both North and South this terrible war as the woe due to those by whom the

offense came,shall we discern there in any departure from those divine

attributes which the believers in aliving God always ascribe to Him?

Fondly do we hope,fervently do we pray that thi--ighty scourge of war may

speedily pa away?Yet,if God wills that it continue until all the wealth

piled by the bondsman\'s two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil

shall be sunk,and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be

paid by another drawn with the sword,as was said three thousand years ago

so still it must be said\"The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous

altogether.\"

With malice toward none,with charity for all,with firmne in the right as

God gives us to see the might,let us strive on to finish the work we are

in,to bind up the nation\'s wounds,to care for him who shall have borne the

battle and for his widow and his orphan,to do all which may achieve and

cherish ajust and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.

林肯第二次就职演讲

(1865年3月4日)

一八88年当林肯又一次当选蝉联总统职位时,美国仍为内战所分裂。当时战争的结果仍不克不及确定,而林肯的又一次当选,成为北方人民刻意作战到底争夺最后胜利的一个使人振奋的表现。一八六五年三月四日当林肯宣誓就职时,局势清楚显示北方即将战胜,战争行将结束。在这篇就职演讲词中,林肯致力于讨论争后美国人民将面临的重大课题。林肯但愿制止一切过错与处罚的问题。当他准备实施这项政策时,一个杀手的枪弹葬送了他的高贵抱负。

各位同胞:

在这第二次的宣誓就职典礼中,不像首届就职的时候那样需要揭晓长篇演讲。在阿谁时候,对于当时所要举行的事业几多作一具体的说明,似乎是适当的。现在四年任期已满,在最近战时的每个重要时刻和阶段中--这个战争至今仍为举国所关怀,还且占用了国家大多力量--都时常发布文告,以是现在很少有什么新的发展可以奉告。我们的军事进展,是一切其他问题的要害所在,各界人士对此情形是跟我一样熟悉的,而我相信进展的环境,可使我们全体人民在理由感应满意和鼓舞。既然可以对未来寄予泼天的但愿,那末我们也就不待在这一方面作什么预言了。

四年前在与此同一场合里,所有的人都焦虑地注意一场即未来临的内战。各人害怕它,想尽了要领去制止它。当时我正在这里作就职演讲,全力以赴想不消战争要领而能保存联邦,然而本城的反叛分子的代理人却没法不消战争而破坏联邦--他们力求瓦解联邦,并以谈判的要领来支解联邦。双方都声称阻挡战争,可是有一方甘愿兵戈而不肯让国家保存,另一方则宁肯接受这场战争,而不肯国家死亡,于是战争就来临了。

我们全国人口的八分之一是黑奴,他们并不是遍布整个联邦,而是局部地漫衍于南方。这些奴隶构成了一种特殊而重大的权益。各人懂患上这种权益可说是这场战争的原因。为了加强、连结及扩展这种权益,反叛分子会不惜以战争来分裂联邦,而政府只不外要限制这种权益所在地域的扩张。当初,任何一方都没有想到这场战争会发展到今朝那末大的范围,连续那末长的时间。也没有料到冲突的原因会随冲突本身的终止而终止,甚至会在冲突本身终止之前而终止。双方都在追求一个较轻易的胜利,都没有期望获致带根本性的和使人吃惊的结果。双方念诵同样的圣经,祈祷于同一个天主,甚至于每方都求助同一天主的援助以阻挡另一方,许多人竟敢求助于天主,来夺取他人以血汗患上来的面包,这看来是很奇怪的。可是我们不要判断人家,免患上别人判断我们。

我们双方的祈祷都不克不及够如愿,并且断没全数如愿以偿。上苍自有他自己的目标。由于罪恶而世界受魔难,因为罪恶总是要来的;然而阿谁作恶的人,要受魔难」假使我们认为美国的奴隶制度是这种罪恶之一,而这些罪恶按天主的意志在所不免,但既经连续了他所指定的一段时间,他现在便要消除这些罪恶;假使我们认为天主把这场惨烈的战争加在南北双方的头上,作为对那些招致罪恶的人的责罚,难道我们可以认为这件事有悖于虔奉天主的信徒们所归诸天主的那些圣德吗?我们天真地但愿着,我们热忱地祈祷着,但愿这战争的重罚可以很快地已往。可是,假使天主要让战争再继续下去,直至二百半百年来奴隶无偿劳动所储蓄堆集的财富化为乌有,并像三千年前所说的那样,等到鞭挞所流的每滴血,被刀剑之下所流的每滴血所相互消除,那末我们仍然只能说,「主的裁判是完全正确并且公道的。」

我们对任何人都不怀恶意,我们对任何人都抱好感,天主让我们看到正确的事,我们就坚定地信那正确的事,让我们继续奋斗,以完成我们正在举行的事情,去治疗国家的创伤,去照顾艰苦作战的志士和他的孤儿遗孀,极力实现并维护在我们自己之间和我国与各国之间的公道和持久的和平。

推荐第10篇:名人英语演讲稿:The Banking Crisis

My friends:

I want to talk for a few minutes with the people of the United States about banking -- to talk with the comparatively few who understand the mechanics of banking, but more particularly with the overwhelming majority of you who use banks for the making of deposits and the drawing of checks.

I want to tell you what has been done in the last few days, and why it was done, and what the next steps are going to be.I recognize that the many proclamations from State capitols and from Washington, the legislation, the Treasury regulations, and so forth, couched for the most part in banking and legal terms, out to be explained for the benefit of the average citizen.I owe this, in particular, because of the fortitude and the good temper with which everybody has accepted the inconvenience and hardships of the banking holiday.And I know that when you understand what we in Washington have been about, I shall continue to have your cooperation as fully as I have had your sympathy and your help during the past week.

First of all, let me state the simple fact that when you deposit money in a bank, the bank does not put the money into a safe deposit vault.It invests your money in many different forms of credit -- in bonds, in commercial paper, in mortgages and in many other kinds of loans.In other words, the bank puts your money to work to keep the wheels of industry and of agriculture turning around.A comparatively small part of the money that you put into the bank is kept in currency -- an amount which in normal times is wholly sufficient to cover the cash needs of the average citizen.In other words, the total amount of all the currency in the country is only a comparatively small proportion of the total deposits in all the banks of the country.

What, then, happened during the last few days of February and the first few days of March? Because of undermined confidence on the part of the public, there was a general rush by a large portion of our population to turn bank deposits into currency or gold -- a rush so great that the soundest banks couldn\'t get enough currency to meet the demand.The reason for this was that on the spur of the moment it was, of course, impoible to sell perfectly sound aets of a bank and convert them into cash, except at panic prices far below their real value.By the afternoon of March third, a week ago last Friday, scarcely a bank in the country was open to do busine.proclamations closing them, in whole or in part, had been iued by the Governors in almost all the states.It was then that I iued the proclamation providing for the national bank holiday, and this was the first step in the Government’s reconstruction of our financial and economic fabric.

The second step, last Thursday, was the legislation promptly and patriotically paed by the Congre confirming my proclamation and broadening my powers so that it became poible in view of the requirement of time to extend the holiday and lift the ban of that holiday gradually in the days to come.This law also gave authority to develop a program of rehabilitation of our banking facilities.And I want to tell our citizens in every part of the Nation that the national Congre -- Republicans and Democrats alike -- showed by this action a devotion to public welfare and a realization of the emergency and the neceity for speed that it is difficult to match in all our history.

The third stage has been the series of regulations permitting the banks to continue their functions to take care of the distribution of food and household neceities and the payment of payrolls.

This bank holiday, while resulting in many cases in great inconvenience, is affording us the opportunity to supply the currency neceary to meet the situation.Remember that no sound bank is a dollar worse off than it was when it closed its doors last week.Neither is any bank which may turn out not to be in a position for immediate opening.The new law allows the twelve Federal Reserve Banks to iue additional currency on good aets and thus the banks that reopen will be able to meet every legitimate call.The new currency is being sent out by the Bureau of Engraving and printing in large volume to every part of the country.It is sound currency because it is backed by actual, good aets.

Another question you will ask is this: Why are all the banks not to be reopened at the same time? The answer is simple and I know you will understand it: Your Government does not intend that the history of the past few years shall be repeated.We do not want and will not have another epidemic of bank failures.

As a result, we start tomorrow, Monday, with the opening of banks in the twelve Federal Reserve Bank cities -- those banks, which on first examination by the Treasury, have already been found to be all right.That will be followed on Tuesday by the resumption of all other functions by banks already found to be sound in cities where there are recognized clearing houses.That means about two hundred and fifty cities of the United States.In other words, we are moving as fast as the mechanics of the situation will allow us.

On Wednesday and succeeding days, banks in smaller places all through the country will resume busine, subject, of course, to the Government\'s physical ability to complete its survey It is neceary that the reopening of banks be extended over a period in order to permit the banks to make applications for the neceary loans, to obtain currency needed to meet their requirements, and to enable the Government to make common sense checkups.

please let me make it clear to you that if your bank does not open the first day you are by no means justified in believing that it will not open.A bank that opens on one of the subsequent days is in exactly the same status as the bank that opens tomorrow.

I know that many people are worrying about State banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve System.There is no occasion for that worry.These banks can and will receive aistance from member banks and from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation.And, of course, they are under the immediate control of the State banking authorities.These State banks are following the same course as the National banks except that they get their licenses to resume busine from the State authorities, and these authorities have been asked by the Secretary of the Treasury to permit their good banks to open up on the same schedule as the national banks.And so I am confident that the State Banking Departments will be as careful as the national Government in the policy relating to the opening of banks and will follow the same broad theory.

It is poible that when the banks resume a very few people who have not recovered from their fear may again begin withdrawals.Let me make it clear to you that the banks will take care of all needs, except, of course, the hysterical demands of hoarders, and it is my belief that hoarding during the past week has become an exceedingly unfashionable pastime in every part of our nation.It needs no prophet to tell you that when the people find that they can get their money -- that they can get it when they want it for all legitimate purposes -- the phantom of fear will soon be laid.people will again be glad to have their money where it will be safely taken care of and where they can use it conveniently at any time.I can aure you, my friends, that it is safer to keep your money in a reopened bank than it is to keep it under the mattre.

The succe of our whole national program depends, of course, on the cooperation of the public -- on its intelligent support and its use of a reliable system.

Remember that the eential accomplishment of the new legislation is that it makes it poible for banks more readily to convert their aets into cash than was the case before.More liberal provision has been made for banks to borrow on these aets at the Reserve Banks and more liberal provision has also been made for iuing currency on the security of these good aets.This currency is not fiat currency.It is iued only on adequate security, and every good bank has an abundance of such security.

One more point before I close.There will be, of course, some banks unable to reopen without being reorganized.The new law allows the Government to aist in making these reorganizations quickly and effectively and even allows the Government to subscribe to at least a part of any new capital that may be required.

I hope you can see, my friends, from this eential recital of what your Government is doing that there is nothing complex, nothing radical in the proce.

We have had a bad banking situation.Some of our bankers had shown themselves either incompetent or dishonest in their handling of the people’s funds.They had used the money entrusted to them in speculations and unwise loans.This was, of course, not true in the vast majority of our banks, but it was true in enough of them to shock the people of the United States, for a time, into a sense of insecurity and to put them into a frame of mind where they did not differentiate, but seemed to aume that the acts of a comparative few had tainted them all.And so it became the Government’s job to straighten out this situation and do it as quickly as poible.And that job is being performed.

I do not promise you that every bank will be reopened or that individual loes will not be suffered, but there will be no loes that poibly could be avoided; and there would have been more and greater loes had we continued to drift.I can even promise you salvation for some, at least, of the sorely prees banks.We shall be engaged not merely in reopening sound banks but in the creation of more sound banks through reorganization.

It has been wonderful to me to catch the note of confidence from all over the country.I can never be sufficiently grateful to the people for the loyal support that they have given me in their acceptance of the judgment that has dictated our course, even though all our procees may not have seemed clear to them.

After all, there is an element in the readjustment of our financial system more important than currency, more important than gold, and that is the confidence of the people themselves.Confidence and courage are the eentials of succe in carrying out our plan.You people must have faith; you must not be stampeded by rumors or guees.Let us unite in banishing fear.We have provided the machinery to restore our financial system, and it is up to you to support and make it work.

It is your problem, my friends, your problem no le than it is mine.

Together we cannot fail.

We also recognize our duty to share our bleings with the least among us.Throughout the holiday season, schools, churches, synagogues and other generous organizations gather food and clothing for their neighbors in need.Many young people give part of their holiday to volunteer at homele shelters or food pantries.On Thanksgiving, and on every day of the year, America is a more hopeful nation because of the volunteers who serve the weak and the vulnerable.

The Thanksgiving tradition of compaion and humility dates back to the earliest days of our society.And through the years, our deepest gratitude has often been inspired by the most difficult times.Almost four centuries ago, the pilgrims set aside time to thank God after suffering through a bitter winter.George Washington held Thanksgiving during a trying stay at Valley Forge.And President Lincoln revived the Thanksgiving tradition in the midst of a civil war.

The past year has brought many challenges to our nation, and Americans have met every one with energy, optimism and faith.After lifting our economy from a receion, manufacturers and entrepreneurs are creating jobs again.Volunteers from acro the country came together to help hurricane victims rebuild.And when the children of Beslan, Ruia suffered a brutal terrorist attack, the world saw America\'s generous heart in an outpouring of compaion and relief.

The greatest challenges of our time have come to the men and women who protect our nation.We\'re fortunate to have dedicated firefighters and police officers to keep our streets safe.We\'re grateful for the homeland security and intelligence personnel who spend long hours on faithful watch.And we give thanks to the men and women of our military who are serving with courage and skill, and making our entire nation proud.

世界名人的英语演讲稿篇二

Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand signed the Emancipation Proclamation.This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice.It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity.

But one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the Negro is still not free.One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity.One hundred years later, the Negro is still languishing in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land.So we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition.

In a sense we have come to our nation\'s capital to cash a check.When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the declaration of Independence, they were signing a promiory note to which every American was to fall heir.This note was a promise that all men would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happine.

It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promiory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned.Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check which has come back marked \"insufficient funds.\" But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation.

So we have come to cash this check -- a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.

We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of now.This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.Now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all of God\'s children.Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.

It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment and to underestimate the determination of the Negro.This sweltering summer of the Negro\'s legitimate discontent will not pauntil there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality.Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning.

Vice President Johnson, Mr.Speaker, Mr.Chief Justice, President Eisenhower, Vice President Nixon, President Truman, reverend clergy, fellow citizens:

We observe today not a victory of party, but a celebration of freedom -- symbolizing an end, as well as a beginning -- signifying renewal, as well as change.For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three-quarters ago.

The world is very different now.For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life.And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at iue around the globe -- the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.

We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution.Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been paed to a new generation of Americans -- born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage, and unwilling to witne or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.

Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to aure the survival and the succe of liberty.This much we pledge -- and more.

To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends.United there is little we cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures.Divided there is little we can do -- for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder.To those new states whom we welcome to the ranks of the free, we pledge our word that one form of colonial control shall not have paed away merely to be replaced by a far more iron tyranny.We shall not always expect to find them supporting our view.But we shall always hope to find them strongly supporting their own freedom -- and to remember that, in the past, those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside.

Dare to Compete, Dare to Care 敢于竞争,勇于关爱---美国国务卿希拉里·克林顿耶鲁大学演讲

Dare to compete.Dare to care.Dare to dream.Dare to love.Practice the art of making poible.And no matter what happens, even if you hear shouts behind, keep going.要敢于竞争,敢于关爱,敢于憧憬,大胆去爱!要努力创造奇迹!无论发生什么,即使有人在你背后大声喊叫,也要勇往直前。

-----

It is such an honor and pleasure for me to be back at Yale, especially on the occasion of the 300th anniversary.I have had so many memories of my time here, and as Nick was speaking I thought about how I ended up at Yale Law School.And it tells a little bit about how much progre we’ve made.

What I think most about when I think of Yale is not just the politically charged atmosphere and not even just the superb legal education that I received.It was at Yale that I began work that has been at the core of what I have cared about ever since.I began working with New Haven legal services representing children.And I studied child development, abuse and neglect at the Yale New Haven Hospital and the Child Study Center.I was lucky enough to receive a civil rights internship with Marian Wright Edelman at the Children’s Defense Fund, where I went to work after I graduated.Those experiences fueled in me a paion to work for the benefit of children, particularly the most vulnerable.

Now, looking back, there is no way that I could have predicted what path my life would have taken.I didn’t sit around the law school, saying, well, you know, I think I’ll graduate and then I’ll go to work at the Children’s Defense Fund, and then the impeachment inquiry, and Nixon retired or resigns, I’ll go to Arkansas.I didn’t think like that.I was taking each day at a time.

But, I’ve been very fortunate because I’ve always had an idea in my mind about what I thought was important and what gave my life meaning and purpose.A set of values and beliefs that have helped me navigate the shoals, the sometimes very treacherous sea, to illuminate my own true desires, despite that others say about what l should care about and believe in.A paion to succeed at what l thought was important and children have always provided that lone star, that guiding light.Because l have that absolute conviction that every child, especially in this, the most bleed of nations that has ever existed on the face of earth, that every child deserves the opportunity to live up to his or her God-given potential.

But you know that belief and conviction-it may make for a personal miion statement, but standing alone, not translated into action, it means very little to anyone else, particularly to those for whom you have those concerns.

When I was thinking about running for the United States Senate-which was such an enormous decision to make, one I never could have dreamed that I would have been making when I was

here on campus-I visited a school in New York City and I met a young woman, who was a star athlete.

I was there because of Billy Jean King promoting an HBO special about women in sports called “Dare to compete.” It was about Title IX and how we finally, thanks to government action, provided opportunities to girls and women in sports.

And although I played not very well at intramural sports, I have always been a strong supporter of women in sports.And I was introduced by this young woman, and as I went to shake her hand she obviously had been reading the newspapers about people saying I should or shouldn’t run for the Senate.And I was congratulating her on the speech she had just made and she held onto my hand and she said, “Dare to compete, Mrs.Clinton.Dare to compete.”

I took that to heart because it is hard to compete sometimes, especially in public ways, when your failures are there for everyone to see and you don’t know what is going to happen from one day to the next.And yet so much of life, whether we like to accept it or not, is competing with ourselves to be the best we can be, being involved in claes or profeions or just life, where we know we are competing with others.

I took her advice and I did compete because I chose to do so.And the biggest choices that you’ll face in your life will be yours alone to make.I’m sure you’ll receive good advice.You’re got a great education to go back and reflect about what is right for you, but you eventually will have to choose and I hope that you will dare to compete.And by that I don’t mean the kind of cutthroat competition that is too often characterized by what is driving America today.I mean the small voice inside you that says to you, you can do it, you can take this risk, you can take this next step.

And it doesn’t mean that once having made that choice you will always succeed.In fact, you won’t.There are setbacks and you will experience difficult disappointments.You will be slowed down and sometimes the breath will just be knocked out of you.But if you carry with you the values and beliefs that you can make a difference in your own life, first and foremost, and then in the lives of others.You can get back up, you can keep going.

But it is also important, as I have found, not to take yourself too seriously, because after all, every one of us here today, none of us is deserving of full credit.I think every day of the bleings my birth gave me without any doing of my own.I chose neither my family nor my country, but they as much as anything I’ve ever done, determined my course.

You compare my or your circumstances with those of the majority of people who’ve ever lived or who are living right now, they too often are born knowing too well what their futures will be.They lack the freedom to choose their life’s path.They’re imprisoned by circumstances of poverty and ignorance, bigotry, disease, hunger, oppreion and war.

So, dare to compete, yes, but maybe even more difficult, dare to care.Dare to care about people who need our help to succeed and fulfill their own lives.There are so many out there and

sometimes all it takes is the simplest of gestures or helping hands and many of you understand that already.I know that the numbers of graduates in the last 20 years have worked in community organizations, have tutored, have committed themselves to religious activities.

You have been there trying to serve because you have believed both that it was the right thing to do and because it gave something back to you.You have dared to care.

Well, dare to care to fight for equal justice for all, for equal pay for women, against hate crimes and bigotry.Dare to care about public schools without qualified teachers or adequate resources.Dare to care about protecting our environment.Dare to care about the 10 million children in our country who lack health insurance.Dare to care about the one and a half million children who have a parent in jail.The seven million people who suffer from HIV/AIDS.And thank you for caring enough to demand that our nation do more to help those that are suffering throughout this world with HIV/AIDS, to prevent this pandemic from spreading even further.

And I’ll also add, dare enough to care about our political proce.You know, as I go and speak with students I’m impreed so much, not only in formal settings, on campuses, but with my daughter and her friends, about how much you care, about how willing you are to volunteer and serve.You may have mied the last wave of the dot.com revolution, but you’ve understood that the dot.community revolution is there for you every single day.And you’ve been willing to be part of remarking lives in our community.

And yet, there is a real resistance, a turning away from the political proce.I hope that some of you will be public servants and will even run for office yourself, not to win a position to make and impreion on your friends at your 20th reunion, but because you understand how important it is for each of us as citizens to make a commitment to our democracy.

Your generation, the first one born after the social upheavals of the 60’s and 70’s, in the midst of the technological advances of the 80’s and 90’s, are inheriting an economy, a society and a government that has yet to understand fully, or even come to grips with, our rapidly changing world.

And so bring your values and experiences and insights into politics.Dare to help make, not just a difference in politics, but create a different politics.Some have called you the generation of choice.You’ve been raised with multiple choice tests, multiple channels, multiple websites and multiple lifestyles.You’ve grown up choosing among alternatives that were either not imagined, created or available to people in prior generations.

You’ve been invested with far more personal power to customize your life, to make more free choices about how to live than was ever thought poible.And I think as I look at all the surveys and research that is done, your choices reflect not only freedom, but personal responsibility.

The social indicators, not the headlines, the social indicators tell a positive story: drug use and cheating and arrests being down, been pregnancy and suicides, drunk driving deaths being down.

Community service and religious involvement being up.But if you look at the area of voting among 18 to 29 year olds, the numbers tell a far more troubling tale.Many of you I know believe that service and community volunteerism is a better way of solving the iues facing our country than political engagement, because you believe-choose one of the following multiples or choose them all-government either can’t understand or won’t make the right choices because of political preures, inefficiency, incompetence or big money influence.

Well, I admit there is enough truth in that critique to justify feeling disconnected and alienated.But at bottom, that’s a personal cop-out and a national peril.Political conditions maximize the conditions for individual opportunity and responsibility as well as community.Americorps and the Peace Corps exist because of political decisions.Our air, water, land and food will be clean and safe because of political choices.Our ability to cure disease or log onto the Internet have been advanced because of politically determined investments.Ethnic cleansing in Kosovo ended because of political leadership.Your parents and grandparents traveled here by means of government built and subsidized transportation systems.Many used GI Bills or government loans, as I did, to attend college.

Now, I could, as you might gue, go on and on, but the point is to remind us all that government is us and each generation has to stake its claim.And, as stakeholders, you will have to decide whether or not to make the choice to participate.It is hard and it is, bringing change in a democracy, particularly now.There’s so much about our modern times that conspire to lower our sights, to weaken our vision-as individuals and communities and even nations.

It is not the vast conspiracy you may have heard about; rather it’s a silent conspiracy of cynicism and indifference and alienation that we see every day, in our popular culture and in our prodigious consumerism.

But as many have said before and as Vaclav Havel has said to memorably, “It cannot suffice just to invent new machines, new regulations and new institutions.It is neceary to understand differently and more perfectly the true purpose of our existence on this Earth and of our deeds.” And I think we are called on to reject, in this time of bleings that we enjoy, those who will tear us apart and tear us down and instead to liberate our God-given spirit, by being willing to dare to dream of a better world.

During my campaign, when times were tough and days were long I used to think about the example of Harriet Tubman, a heroic New Yorker, a 19th century Moses, who risked her life to bring hundreds of slaves to freedom.She would say to those who she gathered up in the South where she kept going back year after year from the safety of Auburn, New York, that no matter what happens, they had to keep going.If they heard shouts behind them, they had to keep going.If they heard gunfire or dogs, they had to keep going to freedom.Well, those aren’t the risks we face.It is more the silence and apathy and indifference that dogs our heels.

Thirty-two years ago, I spoke at my own graduation from Wellesley, where I did call on my fellow clamates to reject the notion of limitations on our ability to effect change and instead to

embrace the idea that the goal of education should be human liberation and the freedom to practice with all the skill of our being the art of making poible.

For after all, our fate is to be free.To choose competition over apathy, caring over indifference, vision over myopia, and love over hate.

Just as this is a special time in your lives, it is for me as well because my daughter will be graduating in four weeks, graduating also from a wonderful place with a great education and beginning a new life.And as I think about all the parents and grandparents who are out there, I have a sense of what their feeling.Their hearts are leaping with joy, but it’s hard to keep tears in check because the presence of our children at a time and place such as this is really a fulfillment of our own American dreams.Well, I applaud you and all of your love, commitment and hard work, just as I applaud your daughters and sons for theirs.

And I leave these graduates with the same meage I hope to leave with my graduate.Dare to compete.Dare to care.Dare to dream.Dare to love.Practice the art of making poible.And no matter what happens, even if you hear shouts behind, keep going.

Thank you and God ble you all.

一代苹果教主史蒂夫·乔布斯(Steve Jobs)悄然辞世,全世界都在悼念这位离经叛道的天才人物。下面让我们回顾乔布斯在斯坦福大学2005年毕业典礼上的经典演讲,从中领会他对梦想、成功和人生的感悟:

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world.I never graduated from college.Truth be told, this is the closest I\'ve ever gotten to a college graduation.Today I want to tell you three stories from my life.That\'s it.No big deal.Just three stories.我今天很荣幸能够参加你们的毕业典礼,斯坦福大学是世界顶级名校之一。我大学没有毕业。说实话,此刻也许是我生命中最贴近大学毕业的体验了。今天我想向你们讲述我生活中的三个故事。不是什么大不了的事情,只是三个故事而已。

The first story is about connecting the dots.第一个故事是关于如何把生命中的点点滴滴串连起来。

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit.So why did I drop out? 我在里德学院刚刚读了六个月就退学了,不过在那之后我还经常去学校旁听,又过了18个月左右才真正离开。我为什么要退学呢?

It started before I was born.My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption.She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife.Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl.So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: \"We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?\" They said: \"Of course.\" My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school.She refused to sign the final adoption papers.She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.故事要从我还没出生的时候讲起。我的亲生母亲是一个年轻的未婚女研究生,她决定让别人收养我。她坚持认为收养我的人起码要有学士学位,所以提前安排好了一切,让我一出世就能被一位律师和他的妻子收养。然而,我刚出生他们就改了主意想要个女孩。所以我的养父母突然在半夜接到电话:“我们这儿有一个计划外的男婴,你们想要他吗?”他们回答道:“当然!”但是我亲生母亲随后发现,我的养母从来没有上过大学,我的养父甚至连高中文凭都没有。于是她拒绝在收养文件上签字。直到几个月以后,我的养父母许诺将来一定会让我读大学,她才勉强同意。

And 17 years later I did go to college.But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-cla parents\' savings were being spent on my college tuition.After six months, I couldn\'t see the value in it.I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out.And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life.So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK.It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made.The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required claes that didn\'t interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.在十七岁那年,我真的上了大学。但是我很愚蠢地选择了一个几乎和你们斯坦福大学一样贵的学校。我的养父母都是蓝领,他们把所有积蓄都花在了我的学费上面。而在六个月后,我发现这毫无意义。我不知道我真正想要做什么,我也不知道大学怎样能够帮助我找到答案。但是在这里,我几乎花光了父母一辈子的积蓄。所以我决定退学,并说服自己一切都会好起来。不能否认,我当时确实非常的害怕,但是现在回头看看,那的确是我这一生中最棒的一个决定。在我做出退学决定的那一刻,我终于可以不必去读那些令我提不起丝毫兴趣的课程了。然后我可以开始去修那些看起来有点意思的课程。

It wasn\'t all romantic.I didn\'t have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends\' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles acro town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple.I loved it.And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be pricele later on.Let me give you one example: 那段日子一点儿也不浪漫。我失去了我的宿舍,只能在朋友房间的地板上睡觉;我收集可乐瓶子去换押金,每个5美分,以此果腹;每周日的晚上,我需要步行七英里,穿过整个城镇到克利须那神庙(位于纽约布鲁克林下城)去吃每周一次的大餐,我喜欢那里的饭菜。我跟着我的直觉和好奇心走,遇到的很多东西,此后被证明是无价之宝。让我给你们举一个例子吧:

Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country.Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed.Because I had dropped out and didn\'t have to take the normal claes, I decided to take a calligraphy cla to learn how to do this.I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great.It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can\'t capture, and I found it fascinating.当时里德学院开办的美术字课程也许是全美最好的。在这个大学里面的每张海报、每个抽屉的标签上面全都是漂亮的美术字。因为我退学了,不必去上正规的课程,所以我决定去参加这个课程,学学怎样写出漂亮的美术字。我学到了有衬线和无衬线字体,我学会了怎么样在不同的字母组合之中改变空白间距,还有怎么样才能做出最棒的印刷式样。那种美好、历史感和艺术的精妙,是科学永远不能捕捉到的,我发现那实在是太迷人了。

None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life.But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me.And we designed it all into the Mac.It was the first computer with beautiful typography.If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts.And since Windows just copied the Mac, it\'s likely that no personal computer would have them.If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy cla, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do.Of course it was impoible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college.But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.当时看起来这些东西在我的生命中,好像都没有什么实际应用的可能。但是十年之后,当我们在设计第一台麦金托什电脑的时候,就不是那样了。我把当时我学的那些东西全都设计进了麦金托什机。那是第一台使用了漂亮的印刷字体的电脑。如果我大学时没有一门心思地投入这门课程,麦金托什机就不会有这么多丰富的字体以及赏心悦目的字体间距。又因为微软视窗系统只是照抄了麦金托什机,所以所有的个人电脑也都不会拥有它们。如果我当时没有退学,就不会有机会去参加这个美术字课程,个人电脑也就不会拥有现在这么美妙的字型。当然我在大学展望未来的时候,还不可能把这些片段联系起来,但是当我十年后回顾这一切,真是豁然开朗。

Again, you can\'t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.You have to trust in something -- your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.再次说明的是,你在向前展望的时候不可能将这些片段联系起来;你只能在回顾的时候将点点滴滴串连在一起。所以你必须相信这些片段会在你未来的某一天互相呼应。你必须要相信某样东西——你的勇气、命运、生命、因缘,任何东西。这个过程从来没有令我失望,只是让我的生命更加地与众不同。 My second story is about love and lo.我的第二个故事是关于爱和失去。

I was lucky -- I found what I loved to do early in life.Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20.We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees.We had just released our finest creation -- the Macintosh -- a year earlier, and I had just turned 30.And then I got fired.How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well.But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out.When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him.So at 30 I was out.And very publicly out.What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.我非常幸运,因为我在很早的时候就找到了我钟爱的东西。我二十岁的时候就和沃兹在父母的车库里面开创了苹果公司。我们工作得很努力,十年之后,这个公司从那两个车库中的穷小子发展到了超过四千名的雇员、价值超过二十亿的大公司。在公司成立的第九年,我们刚刚发布了最好的产品,那就是麦金托什机,我也刚到三十岁。而就在那一年,我被炒了鱿鱼。你怎么可能被你自己创立的公司炒了鱿鱼呢?嗯,在苹果快速成长的时候,我们雇用了一个很有天分的家伙和我一起管理这个公司。在最初的几年,公司运转的很好。但是后来我们对未来的看法发生了分歧,最终我们吵了起来。当争吵到不可开交的时候,董事会站在了他的那一边。所以三十岁的时候,我被炒了,就在众目睽睽之下。我生命的全部支柱离自己远去,这真是毁灭性的打击。

I really didn\'t know what to do for a few months.I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down -- that I had dropped the baton as it was being paed to me.I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly.I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley.But something slowly began to dawn on me -- I still loved what I did.The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit.I had been rejected, but I was still in love.And so I decided to start over.在最初的几个月里,我真是不知道该做些什么。我觉得我辜负了上一代的创业家们,我把他们交给我的接力棒弄丢了。我和创办惠普的戴维·帕卡德、创办英特尔的鲍勃·诺伊斯见面,并试图向他们道歉。我把事情弄得糟糕透顶了。我成了尽人皆知的失败者,我甚至想要远远逃离这令人伤心的地方。但是我渐渐发现了曙光,我仍然喜爱我从事的这些东西。苹果公司发生的那些事情丝毫没有改变这一点。我被驱逐了,但是我仍然钟爱我所做的事情。所以我决定从头再来。

I didn\'t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me.The heavine of being succeful was replaced by the lightne of being a beginner again, le sure about everything.It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.我当时没有觉察,但是事后证明,从苹果公司被炒是我这辈子发生的最棒的事情。因为,作为成功者的负重感被重新作为一个创业者的轻松感觉所代替,一切都还不确定。这让我觉得如此自由,进入了我生命中最有创造力的一个阶段。

During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife.Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, \"Toy Story,\" and is now the most succeful animation studio in the world.In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple\'s current renaiance.And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.在接下来的五年里,我创立了一个名叫NeXT的公司,还有一个叫皮克斯的公司,然后和一位迷人的女性相爱,她后来成了我的妻子。接下来皮克斯制作了世界上第一部用电脑制作的动画电影《玩具总动员》,现在已成为世界上最成功的动画工作室。后来形势发生了巨大的变化,苹果公司收购了NeXT,于是我又回到了苹果。我们在NeXT公司开发的技术在苹果今天的复兴之中发挥了关键的作用。同时,我和劳伦一起建立了一个美满的家庭。

I\'m pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn\'t been fired from Apple.It was awful tasting medicine, but I gue the patient needed it.Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick.Don\'t lose faith.I\'m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did.You\'ve got to find what you love.And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers.Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work.And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.If you haven\'t found it yet, keep looking.Don\'t settle.As with all matters of the heart, you\'ll know when you find it.And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.So keep looking until you find it.Don\'t settle.我非常肯定地说,如果我不被苹果开除的话,这些事情一件也不会发生。这剂良药的味道实在是太苦了,但是我想病人需要这味药。有些时候,生活会拿起一块砖头向你的脑袋上猛拍一下。不要失去信仰。我很清楚唯一使我一直走下去的,就是我做的事情令我无比钟情。你需要去找到你所爱的东西。对于工作是如此,对于你的爱人也是如此。你的工作将会占据生命中很大的一部分。你只有相信自己所做的是伟大的工作,你才能获得满足。如果你现在还没有找到,那么继续寻找,不要停下来。只要全心全意地去找,在你遇到它的一瞬间就会知道。就像任何圆满的关系,随着岁月的流逝只会越来越紧密。所以继续寻找,直到你找到它,不要停下来! My third story is about death.我的第三个故事是关于死亡的。

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: \"If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you\'ll most certainly be right.\" It made an impreion on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: \"If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?\" And whenever the answer has been \"No\" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.当我十七岁的时候,我读到了一句话:“如果你把每一天都当作生命中最后一天去生活的话,那么总有一天你会发现你做对了。”这句话给我留下了很深的印象。从那时开始,过了33 年,我每天早晨都会对着镜子问自己:“如果今天是我生命中的最后一天,我是否愿意去做今天预定要做的事情呢?”每当答案连续多天是“不”的时候,我就知道自己需要些改变了。

Remembering that I\'ll be dead soon is the most important tool I\'ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.Because almost everything -- all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrament or failure -- these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.You are already naked.There is no reason not to follow your heart.“记住你即将死去”是我一生中遇到的最重要的箴言。它帮我做出生命中重大的选择。因为几乎所有的事情,包括所有外界的期望、所有荣耀、所有对难堪和失败的恐惧,这些在死亡面前都会消失,留下真正重要的东西。你有时候会想,你将会失去某些东西。记住你即将死去,这是据我所知避免这些思维陷阱的最好方法。你已经赤条条无牵挂了,没有理由不遵从本心行事。

About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer.I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas.I didn\'t even know what a pancreas was.The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months.My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor\'s code for prepare to die.It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you\'d have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months.It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as poible for your family.It means to say your goodbyes.大概一年以前,我被诊断出癌症。我在早晨七点半做了一次扫描,检查清楚地显示在我的胰腺有一个肿瘤。我当时都不知道胰腺是什么东西。医生告诉我那很可能是一种无法治愈的癌症,我还有三到六个月的时间活在这个世界上。我的医生叫我回家,然后整理好我的一切,那是医生对临终病人的委婉说法。那意味着你将要把以为会在未来十年里对你的孩子说的话在几个月内说完;那意味着把每件事情都安排好,让你的家人尽可能轻松地生活;那意味着你要说“再见”了。

I lived with that diagnosis all day.Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor.I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery.I had the surgery and I\'m fine now.我拿着那个诊断书过了一整天,那天晚上我作了一个活切片检查,医生将一个内窥镜从我的喉咙伸进去,通过我的胃,然后进入肠子,用一根针在我的胰腺肿瘤上取了几个细胞。我当时是被麻醉的,但是我的妻子在那里,她后来告诉我,当医生在显微镜下观察这些细胞的时候他们开始尖叫,因为这些细胞最后竟然是一种非常罕见的可以用手术治愈的胰腺癌症细胞。我做了这个手术,现在我痊愈了。

This was the closest I\'ve been to facing death, and I hope it\'s the closest I get for a few more decades.Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept: 那是我最接近死亡的时候,希望这也是以后的几十年最接近的一次。从死亡线上又活了过来,比起以前把死亡只当成严肃的抽象概念的时候,我可以更肯定地对你们说:

No one wants to die.Even people who want to go to heaven don\'t want to die to get there.And yet death is the destination we all share.No one has ever escaped it.And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life.It is Life\'s change agent.It clears out the old to make way for the new.Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.没有人愿意死,即使人们想上天堂,也不会为了去那里而死。但是死亡是我们所有人共同的终点。从来没有人能够逃脱它,也理应如此,因为死亡就是生命最好的一个发明。它将旧的清除以便给新的让路。你们现在是新的,但是从现在开始不久以后,你们将会逐渐的变成旧的然后被送离人生舞台。抱歉说得如此戏剧化,但是这是事实。 Your time is limited, so don\'t waste it living someone else\'s life.Don\'t be trapped by dogma -- which is living with the results of other people\'s thinking.Don\'t let the noise of others\' opinions drown out your own inner voice.And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.They somehow already know what you truly want to become.Everything else is secondary.你的时间是有限的,所以不要把它浪费在重复其他人的人生上面。不要受教条的羁绊,那是在遵照别人的思考结果过活。不要让他人的观点淹没你内心的声音。最重要的是,要有勇气听从心灵和直觉的召唤。它们在冥冥中已经知道你真正想要成为的样子。其他的一切都是次要的。

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called \"The Whole Earth Catalog,\" which was one of the bibles of my generation.It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch.This was in the late 1960\'s, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, sciors, and polaroid cameras.It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.在我年轻的时候,有一本引人入胜的刊物叫做《地球目录全编》。它是我们那一代人的圣经。一个叫斯图尔特·布兰德的家伙在离这里不远的门罗帕克市创办了这本刊物,赋予它诗意盎然的风格。那是20世纪60年代末,在个人电脑出现之前,所以这本刊物全部是用打字机、剪刀和拍立得相机制作的,类似于纸质的谷歌。当然谷歌真正出现是在35年之后。这是一本理想主义的刊物,充满了巧妙的手段和伟大的想法。

Stewart and his team put out several iues of \"The Whole Earth Catalog,\" and then when it had run its course, they put out a final iue.It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age.On the back cover of their final iue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous.Beneath it were the words: \"Stay Hungry.Stay Foolish.\" It was their farewell meage as they signed off.Stay Hungry.Stay Foolish.And I have always wished that for myself.And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.斯图尔特和他的团队出版了几期的《地球目录全编》,当这份刊物走到了尽头,他们推出了最后一期。那是在70年代中期,我正是你们的年纪。终刊号的封底是一张清晨乡村公路的照片,就是那种有冒险精神的人搭便车旅行时常常会经过的公路。在照片下面写着:“求知若饥,虚心若愚。”这就是他们终刊的告别语。求知若饥,虚心若愚。我总是希望自己能够这样,现在,在你们即将毕业、开始新的旅程的时候,我也希望你们能够这样。 Stay Hungry.Stay Foolish.求知若饥,虚心若愚。 Thank you all very much.非常感谢你们!

第14篇:名人演讲稿

每个人都需要一个“心理急救箱”

作者:盖伊·温奇 翻译:孙璐

摘自:《情绪急救:应对各种日常心理伤害的策略与方法》

怎样保护牙齿健康,我们从5岁起就知道了,但怎样保护心理健康,我们直到长大成人都不知道该怎么办。

我们通常会把情绪视为弱者才有的负能量,逃避它、置之不理、放任它、摧枯拉朽。这些被我们忽视的心理伤害,远比身体伤害要频繁得多,例如失败、被拒绝、孤独„„

情绪伤害会给我们的身体和生活带来极大影响,下面这个视频是纽约大学临床心理学博士,曼哈顿私人心理医生盖伊·温奇的演讲,他擅长帮助病人将情绪急救的方法应用到日常生活。

在这里,他会告诉你,人们产生这些情绪的根源,以及如何改变我们的习惯,在各种情绪伤害中进行自救,保护我们的心理健康。

盖伊·温奇的TED演讲视频:情绪伤害带给我们的影响 关于孤独

“孤独是完全主观的定义,它完全取决于你是否觉得在情绪上或是交际上,和你周围的人相隔绝。”

香烟包装上印着“吸烟有害健康”的警告,但很少人知道一天吸两包“孤独”牌香烟的危害。长期孤独会提高14%的早逝性,还会引发高血压、高胆固醇,甚至影响人的免疫系统,比起这些,抽烟已经不算什么了。

关于失败

“如果你的头脑告诉你,你做不到什么事,而你相信了的话,你很快就放弃了,甚至都不去试一下,然后你就更加确信自己成功不了。你看,这就是为什么那么多人都无法充分发挥他们的潜能。”

因为一旦认定了某件事,我们很难改变看法。所以当你失败了,感到意气消沉是很自然的,但是我们通常不允许相信自己不会成功,就要和无助感斗争。

关于拒绝

“我们都干过这事儿,尤其是被拒绝之后,我们要是这样就好了,要是不那样就好了,我们开始去想我们犯的错、我们的缺点„„”

如果我们身体受伤了,绝不会再往伤口上撒一把盐,但我们经常会拿刀捅自己的心理伤害,还要残忍地看到底能捅多深。

人们拒绝追求者的原因有很多,大部分都跟他们自己或追求者的缺点无关,最常见的原因是,他们认为两人之间没感觉,不来电。所以,如果你被拒绝了,没有必要抓住自己的缺点不放。

与恋爱关系相似,如果你被潜在的雇主拒绝,原因一般与你的缺陷无关,更有可能是因为你不适合那个公司或者职位。如果你被工作团队或上司排斥,大多数情况下,是与组织的动态及其文化相关的,与你的性格和工作绩效无关。

关于自卑

很多研究表明,如果你的自尊心低落,你就更容易感到压力和焦虑,失败和拒绝会伤害你更深,你也需要更多的时间复原。所以如果你被拒绝了,首先应该做的事情是重新激活你的自尊心,而不是去疯狂地打击自尊心来发泄。

我们需要改变不健康的心理习惯,当你经历感情上的痛苦时,要像真正的好朋友一样,爱护自己,保护你的自尊心。

关于反刍

“最常见又最不健康的习惯之一就是想太多。反复回味不愉快的事很容易变成习惯,而这个习惯代价很大,可能诱发抑郁症、酗酒、饮食失调,甚至心血管疾病。”

反复回想一件事的需要,会变得越来越强烈,但如果你专注在其他事情上,让那些担心、烦恼或其他情绪慢慢过去,感觉就会不一样。

愤怒反刍更为阴险的后果是,它所造成的烦躁,可以使我们对最温和的挑衅反应过度。因此,我们往往会把气撒在朋友和家人身上,卡住他们的脖子,以夸张的方式对日常的微小刺激做出反应。

关于内疚

在同情他人遭遇的不公方面,每个人都有自己的限度。如果限期已过,虽然在对方的要求下,出于责任感或愧疚,我们仍然会再次提供支持,但因为不得不这样做,心中很可能感到有些不满和愤怒。

有时候,内疚感会长期占据我们的头脑,徘徊不去。小剂量的内疚可以成为拯救个人行为的英雄,较大剂量的内疚,则可能成为心灵的毒药,搅扰我们的安宁,破坏我们最珍视的关系。

第15篇:名人演讲稿

世界名人知多少

齐:各位同学大家好!古往今来,许多著名的人物永远留在了我们的心中,给我们提供了很好的榜样。文天祥“人生自古谁无死,留取丹心照汗青”的崇高气节,司马迁遭受宫刑,没有绝望,书写了“史家之绝唱,无韵之离骚”的传奇,贝多芬失聪,但他扼住命运的喉咙,创作出著名的命运交响曲,鲁迅弃医从文的爱国情操。张海迪顽强不屈的意志,无不让我们钦佩。今天,就让我们一起走进名人,了解名人的世界。

齐:同学们,今天我们班队会的主题是:名人知多少。

朱:大家课外一定读了名人的故事吧!你读出来或讲出来让我们大家都认识认识你所认识的名人。

姜:对了,下课时我看见有许多同学在演名人的故事,也准备的同学上来表演一下吧!

吴:大家表演得真好!我也带来了几个名人故事。 朱:同学们,你们有什么感受,或是想对爱迪生说些什么? 姜:我也带来了一个故事请大家欣赏!

吴:你们有什么想对查理士

` 达尔文 说的吗?

姜:我也读一读我课外收集的名人小故事!北宋大文学家、政治家范仲淹曾给后人留下了“先天下之忧而忧,后天下之乐而乐”的千古名句,千百年来受到了人们的赞誉。可是他幼年却很不幸,出身贫寒,无力上学,只好跑到寺院中的一间僧房中去读书。

在寺庙读书期间,他将自己关在屋内,足不出户,手不释卷,读书通宵达旦。

由于家贫,生活得也十分艰苦。每天晚上,他用糙米煮好一盆稀饭,等第二天早晨凝成冻后,用刀划成四块,早上吃二块,晚上再吃二块,没有菜,就切一些腌菜下饭。生活如此艰苦,但他毫无怨言,专心于自己的读书学习。

后来,范仲淹的一个同学看到范仲淹的生活如此艰苦仍好学不辍,就回家告诉了父亲。同学的父亲听说后,被范仲淹刻苦学习的精神所感动,也深深同情范仲淹的贫穷处境,于是吩咐家人做了一些鱼肉等好吃的东西,叫儿子带给了范仲淹。

那个同学将做好的鱼肉送给范仲淹,说:“这是我父亲叫我送给你的,赶快趁热吃吧!”

范仲淹回答说:“不!我怎么能够接受你的东西呢?还是带回去吧!”

那个同学以为范仲淹不好意思接受而推辞,连忙放下东西,就回家去了。

过了几天,那个同学又来到范仲淹的住所,发现上次给他送的好吃的东西丝毫未动,已经变坏了。就责备范仲淹说:“看,叫你吃你不吃,东西都变坏了,你为什么不吃呢?”

范仲淹回答说:“并不是我不想吃,只是我已经过惯了艰苦的生活,如果吃了这些美味佳肴,以后再过这种艰苦的生活就不习惯了,所以我就没有吃。感谢你父亲的一片好意。”

那个同学回家,将范仲淹的话如实告诉了他父亲。他父亲夸奖说:“真是一个有志气的孩子,日后必定大有作为呀!”

范仲淹正是凭着“断齑画粥”这股苦读的劲头,最后终于成了我国历史上著名的文学家、政治家。

朱:接下来让我们了解一下毛泽东吧!

吴:毛泽东,中国革命家、战略家、理论家和诗人,中国共产党、中国人民解放军和中华人民共和国的主要缔造者和领袖,毛泽东思想的主要创立者。字润之(原作咏芝,后改润芝),笔名子任。1893年出生于湖南省长沙府湘潭县韶山冲,1976年逝世于北京。从1949年到1976年,毛泽东是中华人民共和国的最高领导人。他对马克思列宁主义的发展、军事理论的贡献以及对共产党的理论贡献是毛泽东思想最重要的组成部分。毛泽东被视为现代世界历史中最重要的人物之一,《时代》杂志将他评为20世纪最具影响100人之一。 吴:你了解那些名人,把他(她)的资料来读一读。 姜:你们课外收集了那些有关名人的名言? 吴:请大家来读下面几句名言。

改造自己,总比禁止别人来得难。 —— 鲁 迅 读书要眼到、口到、心到、手到、脑到--鲁迅 别让你的舌头抢先于你的思考。 --- 德谟克里特 朱:你对这几句名言是怎么理解的?

姜:接下来我们来一次互动吧,从第一组开始每个人都要报一个名人的名字,如果报不出来了请自觉站起来,下个同学帮他(她)报。 朱:看来站着的同学对名人还不够了解!

吴:大屏幕上也有几个名人的名字请大家一起来读一读!

齐:林则徐

岳飞

亚里士多德

爱因斯坦

林肯

华盛顿

拿破轮 孔子 毛泽东 邓小平达芬奇 哥白尼 布鲁诺

朱:每个名人都是伟大的。同学们最敬佩的名人是谁呢?为什么敬佩?

吴:有这么一个人,他把自己有限的生命投入到无限为人民服务中去,不求回报,默默奉献。他曾说过一句话:人的生命是无限的,可是为人民服务是无限的,我要把有限的生命投入到无限为人民服务中去。你们知道他是谁吗? 朱:对了,他是雷锋 姜:雷锋是我们每个人心中的好榜样。他做的好事数不胜数,后人为其创作了很多歌曲。今天我们就一起来唱一唱《学习雷锋好榜样》 齐:今天我们班队会到此结束,谢谢大家!(鞠躬)

第16篇:名人演讲稿

名人励志演讲稿——最好的时间说再见

大家好!

我是李娜,打网球的,我想大家应该很好奇,从我9月19日宣布退役,然后到现在已经有一周的时间了,这一周的时间是怎么过的。19日发布的微博,其实那个时候我很惊讶,就是我没有想到自己,就是作为一名职业球员退役,这件事情会有那么大反应。其实第一次大家有看到,刚才短片在第一次开新闻发布会的时候,在上场之前,我是特别特别的紧张,虽然经历过很多新闻发布会。但是这一次是完全完全不一样的。原来可能是有时候不管是赢球啊还是输球,会带有一点点情绪在里面,但这一次的情绪是很紧张的,在我没上场之前,我还跟我的团队说,完了,我怎么那么紧张啊。就是那种手脚发凉,就感觉那心跳如果嘴巴张开,心就跳出来的那种感觉。然后他们就觉得奇怪说,上过那么多次新闻发布会,为什么会这么紧张。我想可能是第一次吧,有这样的机会跟所有的媒体说再见的时候,因为就像刚才说的,所有的运动员不管你在任何一个档次,或者说不管是任何一个项目,只要是球员,都会有面临退役的一天,只是这一天,是来得早还是来得晚而已。其实这个礼拜的心情,怎么说呢,可能对以前来说会相对比较轻松。因为不用每天起床以后去顾忌我今天的时间表是什么样的,但是心里还是会不舍。因为毕竟网球陪伴了我这么多年,可是当你要跟它说再见的时候,你会觉得,我有问过自己,说我这决定是正确的还是错误的。

其实在做过这个决定之前,我想过差不多4到6个礼拜,才做了退役的决定。因为我是7月底的时候,我做了左边膝盖的手术,我也曾想过再次回到球场上,可是忘记了自己已经三十二岁了。因为上一次的手术是我在28岁的时候做的,相隔4年以后,我一直还以为自己,李娜还是原来的李娜,康复的时间还跟以前一样。可是这一次可能做不到了,我想也是最好的时间可以跟大家说再见。但是呢因为是自己热爱的事业,所以我的未来会计划就是可以拥有自己的网球学校,然后帮助到更多的小朋友们。就是希望打网球可是很多人没有这样的环境或者机会的。我希望能够为他们提供这样的机会,所以这也是我个人的一个想法。当然了,家庭生活是必不可少的一部分,也很感谢网球让我认得了姜山,可以跟他一起拥有了一个家庭。所以非常期待可以有做妈妈的一天,然后希望他的成长之路跟我是不一样的,他可以完全自由选择,我们不会去强迫他们不愿意做的事情,希望他们可以自由,然后可以让他们自由发挥。

在来这之前想过要讲什么呢,不知道要讲什么,因为自己一直觉得做的事情很简单,就是拿着拍子打球而已,在打球的时候不知道自己有什么影响力。可是当退役之后,收到那么多祝福之后,我觉得我做人还可以,不是很失败嘛,最起码还有这么多人愿意记得你。但是我要澄清一点啊,李娜心理没有问题。所以我是觉得,真的,请某些人可以给球员更宽松的环境,让他们更自由地发挥,不要因为一两场球的失利,而做很坚决的判断,因为我觉得一个是没有资格去评论另一个人的,因为每个人的生活方式不一样,成长经历不一样,而且他所经历的东西你并没有亲眼见到或者是亲自体会到,你凭什么去说别人,还说你比他做得更好。所以我想说的是,体育圈真的不容易,因为体育圈是靠成绩说话的,大家只是看到球员光鲜的一面,夺得冠军之后怎么样怎么样,可是并没有看到,在为了拿到好成绩上的这条路上他们艰难的付出。可能大家觉得暑假就应该在家玩啊,写写作业,可是对于体育圈的人来说,我们没有寒暑假,我们没有节假日,包括在大家所谓的春节的时候,我们也没有。所以这是作为一个体育运动员恳请大家可以给我们一个更宽松的环境,让我们更好的为国争光。

我从打网球到慢慢的喜欢上网球,中间用了15年的时间,这15年的时间,大家可能觉得,哎,你既然不喜欢,为什么还要坚持。因为自己自认为是一个很孝顺的女儿。所以在父母帮我选择了以后,我不愿去辜负他们对我的心愿,或者他们的心意。然后这么一直走下去,一直到我第一次退役,在读书两年以后,我才慢慢慢慢地喜欢上网球这个事业。一直到近两年,我才慢慢地了解到我自己这个人,了解到网球这个项目。

我是想这么说,大家觉得自己最好的好朋友是谁?你们都会说一个名字吧。但是很少想过自己,因为自己是最了解自己的。但是有时候可能一些内心深处的东西大家不愿意去勇敢地面对,因为其实很简单,作为个人项目来说,如果我们输球了,我们找理由的话,是最好的一种原谅自己的方式,我可以说今天的天气不好,今天我的感觉不好,今天对手打得比较好,可是真正输球的原因是什么呢?在这两年,其实,我都会感谢带过我的教练或者我的体能师,但是在跟卡洛斯合作以前,我一直都没有太明白,网球对我的意义是什么,当我跟他合作这两年以来,我跟他第一次见面的时候,他就问我一句话,他说其实你不是一个

心理很脆弱的人,他说因为你是一个心理太强大,你不愿意去分担你的想法,所以当你出现问题的时候,你的团队你的朋友不知道你当时是一个什么样的想法,当时他说完以后,我觉得,嗯,他说得不对,他根本就不了解我。怎么会在我们第一次见面的时候就会说到这样的问题,可是慢慢慢慢地我学会了释放自己,学会了去包容自己,因为原来会觉得赢了球是应该的,输了球怎么会输球呢。因为可能从小的一些经历让我对自己没有那么大的信心,包括在我进到所谓的职业圈子以后,因为那时候排名可能才

5、60左右,然后有个教练说,你肯定可以打进前二十。那是我在从事了网球差不多15年到17年左右的时间以后,我是听到第一位教练说,我可以打进世界前20,可是那时候我说不可能,我说前20多难啊,因为那时候对自己完全没有信心,没有人给我灌输说,李娜是一位很优秀的球员,你一定可以做到你期待做到的。可是那时候完完全全地否认自己。

我不知道大家是否跟我一样,在我第一次为自己设定目标的时候,大家刚刚看的那个短片,在我十五岁的时候我说过,我希望可以打进世界前十。其实目标在那边,可是我不知道怎么去走,就像青蛙在玻璃杯里,前途是光明的,但是没有出路。这是我当时的感觉,然后到后来还是很感谢就是,可能随着年龄越来越成熟,所谓的成熟,也就是在圈子里面,待的时间比较长,然后包括一些我愿意去分享自己内心很深的想法时候,我觉得,噢,原来李娜你真的可以做到,而且特别这两年,我是从内心深处有特别感谢年轻时的李娜,因为相信如果没有小时候李娜像傻子一样坚持的话,肯定也不会有今天的李娜在这边。

我想最后再跟大家说一点,我相信每个人都有自己的梦想,不管将来你是想当律师、医生,还是幼儿园的老师,其实只要你们能坚持自己的目标,虽然过程很艰辛,肯定会遇到各种各样的困难或者不顺,但是请大家为了自己的梦想一定要坚持下去,要相信你们自己,可以做到心目中的自己,或者做得更好,所以在这里希望大家可以实现自己的梦想,让我们的以后更美好!

名人励志演讲稿——易中天:这是我的选择

非常感谢大家的欢迎,但我得实事求是地说,我很不情愿地站在这,因为我很怕来到这里,又被贴上一个标签叫青年导师,我身上标签够多的了,用得最多的叫学术超男,我真的不想再贴上一个标签叫青年导师。我今天来只是想和我们的青年朋友们在一起探讨、交流、分享,如果说有导师的话,我希望你们也同时是我的导师,我们互为导师。

请问十八岁的时候,你们在想什么,干什么?高考?都在高考!我十八岁的时候干了什么呢?我十八岁的时候做了一个勇敢的决定,参加新疆生产建设兵团,那么我为什么做这样一个勇敢的决定呢?读了这本书,这本书是苏联作家维拉凯斯特林卡亚写的,它的名字叫——《勇敢》,它描述的呢是莫斯科和列宁格勒的一批共青团员到西伯利亚,就是苏联的远东去建设一座共青城,我读了这本书以后热血沸腾,我说我也去,我也写一本中国的《勇敢》,我要成为中国的维拉凯斯特林卡亚,坚决去了。而且还非常幸运的是到了乌鲁木齐以后分单位,就把我分到了农八师共青团农场,我马上就想起了一首歌,而且我就是唱着这个歌去的,这首歌叫《共青团员之歌》,有会唱的吗?我们告别了亲爱的妈妈,请你吻别你的儿子吧,再见吧妈妈,别难过,莫悲伤,祝福我们一路平安吧„„走了,根本没有考虑妈妈的感受,后来我爸才告诉我,我妈每天晚上哭,就是要去。

要实现自己的目标,实现自己的理想,但是去了以后,才发现,那个被诗意地描述过的地方,证明了生活不是诗,等待着我们的是无法形容的寂寞,单调、劳累、纠结,我就住进了牛棚跟牛住在一块,第一天干活干什么?挤牛奶!我就上去挤,根本挤不出来。名人励志演讲稿——易中天:这是我的选择。老职工就跟我说,不是这样挤的,你得先让小牛吃一口,把它奶胀出来,我说这小牛怎么弄呢?他说你把这小牛放了让它吃吧,小牛栓在旁边,我把小牛解开了,小牛冲过去,一口咬住了,就吃奶,我在旁边看着。老职工说,你怎么还看着?它都吃完了,你还挤什么?我说这怎么弄呢?你拽过来啊!好吧,我去拽那牛,根本拽不动!出生牛犊不怕虎,它还怕我吗?好不容易拽过来,又把它拴上,它又挣脱了。挤了大概这么多,母牛发现了,很愤怒地一脚就把奶桶踢翻了,然后顺便也给了我一脚,这老职工说你怎么这么笨!

后来班长过来说,要不你去放牛吧,班长给了我一根棍,这么长,很结实的棍,我说拿棍干嘛呢?打狼啊?他说狼倒是没有,打牛,牛不听话你就打它,我没管这个,我就带了本书,装在口袋里,赶着牛出去了,出去以后牛在那吃草,我就看书,看了一会,一看,牛没了!只有一头牛还在跟前,正准备往前冲,我赶快拎着棍子过去我就,你站住!你上哪去?牛看了我一眼,然后走了,最后我的跟前,一头牛都没有,然后只好拎着棍子一个一个去赶牛,然后就很快把我从畜牧班调出来,我到了大田班,然后在兵团干完了所有的,几乎所有的脏活、累活、苦活、比方说有一种活叫脱裤腿,就是棉花苗长到这么高的时候,要把棉花苗下面的两片叶子把它打掉,因为它苗只有这么高,你这样是够不着的,得跪下来,跪下来以后两只手去弄,然后膝行,一爬就是一天,兵团的田叫条田,那个条田叫一望无际,根本看不到头,你每天必须从这一头爬到那一头,然后把另外两行的叶子打完,再爬回来,这一天的活就算干完了,你要是速度不够,你回不了家,你根本回不来。那个时候我看着那一望无际的条田,我就想,我的希望在哪里,现在很多年轻人说,我看不到希望,看不到希望,你到条田去看看!

后悔吗?不后悔!因为那是我自己的决定,我不后悔,我到现在都认为,当我服从自己的内心最强烈的冲动的时候,不管它的结局是怎么样,不管将来我会吃多少苦,我无怨无悔。选择即负责!人生能有几回“二”,何不潇洒“二”一回。所以我到今天还很“二”,我的“二”劲一直保留下来,就是在那么艰苦的环境下,我想我既然是做了这个梦,虽然生活不是诗,虽然生活没有像我想想象的那样,可以给我提供那么多素材,让我成为一位伟大的作家,但是我的梦我得继续做下去。所以我当时读了很多的书,而且正是由于这样一个积累,最后让我考上了武汉大学。我毕业以后,住过办公室,住过筒子楼,一直很艰苦很艰苦地过来,我现在很清楚的记得1998年,厦门大学房改,学校分给我一套房子,因为那时候我已经是教授了,112平方,七打折,八打折,折下来,你们猜多少钱?三万!不是每平方啊,总价!我买不起!

我后来为什么要去做电视呢?我为什么要去上《百家讲坛》呢?不是那些媒体猜测的,说什么你上了《百家讲坛》,你就大红大紫,你就能出名,你就能挣很多钱!根本不是这样,那时候谁上《百家讲坛》挣钱啊?做一期节目,1000块钱,扣掉税,960,我算了一个很简单的账,一个月播四期,是4000块钱,一年做下来48000,就这么简单的动机就去了。我觉得我这一生好像很多事情我是没有想过的,我真的没有想很多很多,我也没什么纠结,轻轻松松就去了,但总是有得有失,我就想明白,我既然是有得有失,我为什么不“二”一把,我绝不想我做成能有什么好处,那么我只考虑一个问题,一旦做砸了,我要承担的那个代价。我是担得起,还是担不起。如果这个代价我是负担得起,做!

2005年我上《百家讲坛》,2006年《品三国》,我也不想谦虚了,装谦虚,确实出名了!两件事告诉我,我

出名了!第一件事情,我在香港遇到一对老夫妇,过来说,你是不是易中天,第二件事情就是2006年,八月份,《品三国》在北京首发,当时西单图书大厦,被排队来签名的读者团团围住,把西单图书大厦围了一个圈以后,还排不过来,从地下车库穿过去,一直穿到居民区,然后居民打110报警,北京市西城区公安分局来了一个副局长,17辆警车,100个警员维持秩序,这大概就是世俗眼睛里的成功吧,同样按照世俗的眼光,我易中天好歹也算是功成名就,同样按照这样的眼光,我应该含饴弄孙,安享晚年,但是我突然有一种冲动,我决定要写一部三十六卷史的《易中天中华史》。。就是像这样的一本书,要写36本,又是什么概念呢?两个月写一本,得6年,而两个月是写不了一本的,因此得8年,到8年,就接近李昌钰的年龄了,我不知道到那时候能不能像李昌钰一样,把小撒放翻了。当时消息发布以后,就有人表态说,这事如果不是易老师疯了,就是我疯了。可是我就是想做啊,我就是内心有一种强烈的冲动,我就是想写这么一部东西,我现在可以告诉诸位的是,已经出到第八本了,我还会写下去,一直到无能为力为止。

非常巧的是,前不久参加中央电视台的一档纪录片的拍摄,纪录片叫《客从何处来》,到了湖北省图书馆,拍这个纪录片我才知道,图书馆里放着我曾祖父的一套书,叫《太平草木萌芽录》,而且最神奇的是,我发现这本书里面,我曾祖父给他的子孙有一条遗训,自叙平生志愿,荣华富贵皆在所后,惟望子孙留心正学,他年蔚为名儒,则真使吾九原含笑矣,群孙勉乎哉!我这个时候我才神奇地知道,我居然是在完成曾祖父的遗愿,通过这次拍摄我也才知道,我身上的这股劲,这个力量,被《客从何处来》剧组称之为血脉遗产!

名人励志演讲稿——《我是歌手》第二季总决赛亚军邓紫棋:爱自己的独一无二

大家好,

我是这个世界上面独一无二的邓紫棋,我昨天晚上写这个我要讲的东西,我写到早上六点半,我不要我每次出来讲话都一样,我觉得独一无二是我们每一个人都拥有的一个自身的价值。

我小时候是非常的正面、积极、健康、可是呢这个只是小时候的我。初中的时候吧,有了一个错误的价值观,我觉得叛逆代表有性格,不受父母的控制代表成长了,代表有主见。那时候我们非常流行写博客,有一些人关注了,然后你就觉得在上面写东西很多人看,可是他们又不太知道我,所以我在网络上讲什么话都不用负责任。所以呢经常在上面聊八卦啊,骂明星啊,你们知道我骂过谁吗?(胡杏儿)。对!胡杏儿,真是不好意思,可是你们看到只是冰山一角,因为我在我自己的博客上面,我骂过的人多不胜数,我骂过我不认识的明星,我骂过我认识的老师,我还骂过我最亲的家人。可是我觉得你没有迷失过,你就不会有觉醒,我反而很庆幸就是我自己有叛逆过,所以我现在更珍惜当我找到我自己一条健康正确的路的时候的这份感动。

其实,小时候我为什么会叛逆呢?就是因为我否定了我自己的价值,我忘记了自己的独一无二,我忘记了自己是一个珍贵的被爱的人。我是开始在工作之后,我忙到一个连想要回家让家人唠叨我的机会都没有的时候,我才开始想念以前常常跟家人吵架的那些时光,我跟我爸爸唯一一个拥抱是在我13岁的时候。我为什么会有那个拥抱呢?不是我给爸爸的一个拥抱,是爸爸给我一个拥抱。发生什么事情呢?是13岁第一次来月经,不敢告诉人家来月经。然后第一次来月经,早上起来看到那个床单全都是红的,吓死我了,然后刚好那时候有个婶婶在我家,她就帮我换床单,然后我爸爸就问婶婶说,她怎么要换床单,搞什么?我就说,噢,我打翻了那个番茄汁,他说,神经病啊你,谁叫你拿番茄汁到床上喝。结果我就哭,因为那时候我觉得来月经很羞愧,然后我觉得受委屈了,爸爸又不知道什么事,又在那边骂我什么的。然后就这样子,我就哭,结果婶婶告诉爸爸怎么一回事,然后爸爸跑来,抱了我一下,然后就说,对不起,错怪了你。那是我跟我爸爸我二十三年人生以来唯一一次跟我爸爸的拥抱。

今年的父亲节我写了一封信给爸爸,我跟他说我很抱歉,我觉得我进步了一点是,虽然我还是不敢面对面跟爸爸说我爱你,可是我们现在至少手机里面我可以讲这句话。我在微博上面我可以讲这句话,我可以写信跟他说这句话,我期待着我什么一天我能够站在爸爸妈妈面前告诉他们,我爱你们,我觉得。我现在还在成长过程当中,所以我期待着我有一天可以成长到我真的敢去跟父母表达我的爱。

谈恋爱到现在呢,我觉得我一直都误会了爱是一件什么样的东西,我是到我20岁生日的时候,我分过一次手,那次是我二十年以来那时候最沉痛的经历,因为那时候我居然在我生日前两天分手,我觉得那个男生是不是神经病,你可以不可以过完这个生日再分手。我觉得作为一个朋友,你也不应该让一个,就算已经不是男女朋友,你让你朋友好好过一个生日,生完,你才分手。不是生孩子,是生完日,不好意思,就是过完生日你才分手嘛,对不对。可是,是因为那一次那么大的一个破碎,我才重新思考了很久。第一件事情是我没有爱自己,如果我够爱自己,我就不会在每一次我表现爱的时候,我需要听到回应,因为我做这件事情,不是要取悦你,所以我原来我当时觉得人家不懂爱我,我现在看回去,我也没有懂很得爱人家。当时是我写《泡沫》这首歌的时候,我一个人跑去纽约,然后在纽约街头上面我看到很多泡沫,我觉得人生很灰暗,因为那么浪漫的一个情景,看在我眼里,我却觉得是很脆弱,很灰暗的一个感觉。可是我当时写了一些歌词,我说,美丽的泡沫只是一刹花火,你所有承诺,全部都很脆弱,爱像泡沫。现在看回去,我觉得爱不是泡沫,是我误会了什么是爱。

小时候看那种言情小说看得太多了,我觉得日后我当母亲,我觉得少让子女看这种小说,因为言情小说里面,只讲了爱情浪漫的一部分,或者是受伤的一部分,大部分的平常的,平淡如水的时间它没有给你讲,所以你以为爱情就是很轰烈或者是一定有什么事情发生,你才能够感觉是被爱,所以我以前看这种小说之后,我谈恋爱的模式就是我必须要让对方让我感觉到我被爱。如果我送他一个礼物,他没有回应,我就会觉得,你不珍惜我。所以如果是这个样子的话,就代表我的爱是期待着得到回报的。而为什么我的爱期待得到回报,因为我需要别人来告诉我我自己的价值是什么。我需要一个男生来告诉我我是珍贵的,我需要我身边的朋友来告诉我我是珍贵的,因为我忘记了我小时候我感觉过的我独一无二的那种感觉。

我觉得人一定要抓住自己的价值,你的价值不能由别人来告诉你,虽然我觉得讲来讲去,你是独一无二的,你是很有价值的一个人,你是很珍贵的,这种东西好像很土,可是真正把它活出来是一件很难的事情,因为有很多人在这个世界上面他们想要寻找成功,不同方面上面的成功来告诉自己,自己是有价值的人,厉害的人,他们可能想要去赚很多的钱,可能会想在社会上有很多的地位,或者她们想要交很多的男朋友。有太多的女生,一天到晚跟不同的人去交往,就是因为她缺乏爱,缺乏自身价值的意识,所以她需要一些东西,一些人去告诉她,她是珍贵的。这样子,你看,工作变成了赚钱的工具,不是你的热情,在社会上面尽你公民的责任,变成不是你自己对社会的爱,而是一个你追求权力的工具。然后你好好去谈个恋爱,爱这件事情,一个美丽的事情,并不是出于爱,是出于你想要被爱。你想要人家来告诉你,你有多珍贵,全部的美丽的事情都变得不美丽,变得不纯粹。

人生最搞笑的是什么呢?你永远不可能,就是你永远不可能,就像打游戏一样,你打到一个级别,然后打爆机了,你永远到达不了那一步,除非你死了。因为无论你怎么去解决你面前的难关,你跨过之后,会有更大的难关来找你,再跨过会有更大的难关来找你。

我也许让你们看到我不是一个很好的演讲者,可是我觉得这都无所谓,因为我觉得我就是独一无二的邓紫棋,这个世界没有另外一个我了。上天把我变成一个只有五尺二寸的人,可是我五尺二寸的时候我就很灵活啊。我觉得这个世界上面没有谁比谁更强更厉害,这个世界只有谁比谁更了解自己,更爱自己,更珍惜自己。接受自己,拥抱自己每一个优点、缺点,因为你是独一无二的,所以有些影响,只有你自己能带给这个世界,我讲完了。

李嘉诚汕头大学的演讲:柠檬汁人生观

同学们:

大家好!

我成长的年代,香港社会艰苦,是残酷而悲凉的。那时候没有什么社会安全网,饥饿与疾病的恐惧是强烈迫人。求学的机会不是每一个人的权利,贫穷常常像一种无期徒刑。今天社会前行,新的富足为大部分人带来相对的缓冲保障,贫穷不一定是缺乏金钱,而是对希望及机遇憧憬破灭的挫败感。

人生的过程中尽管不无遗憾,但我学到最价值连城的一课——逆境和挑战只要能激发起生命的力度,我们的成就是可以超乎自己所想像的。

很多人害怕可上升的空间越来越窄,一辈子也无法冲破匮乏与弱势的局限。我理解这些恐惧,因我曾经一一身受。没有人愿意贫穷,但出路在哪里?

七十年前这问题每一个晚上都在我心头,当年十四岁时已需要照顾一家人,没有接受教育的机会,没有可以依靠的人脉网路,我很怀疑只凭刻苦耐劳,和一股毅力,是否足以让我渡过难关?我们一家人的命运是否早已注定?纵使我能餬口存活,但我有否出人头地的一天?

我迅速发现没有什么必然的成功方程式,首要专注的是,把能掌控的因素区分出来。若果成功是我的目标,驾驭一些我能力内可控制的事情是扭转逆境十分重要的关键。我要认清楚什么是贫穷的枷锁—我一定要有摆脱疾病、愚昧、依赖和惰性的方法。

比方说,当我发觉染上肺结核病,在全无医疗照顾之下,我便下定决心,对饮食只求营养不求喜恶、适当地运动及注重整洁卫生,扞卫健康和活力。此外,我要拒绝愚昧,要持恒地终身追求知识,经常保持好奇心和紧贴时势增长智慧,避免不学无术。在过去七十多年,虽然我每天工作十二小时,下班后我必定学习,告诉你们一个秘密,在过去一年,我费很大的力气,努力理解进化论演算法里错综复杂的道理,因为我希望了解人工智慧的发展,以及它对未来的意义。

无论在言谈、许诺及设定目标各方面,我都慎思和严守纪律,一定不能给人嚣惰脆弱和倚赖的印象。这个思维模式不但是对成就的投资,更可建立诚信;你的魅力,表现在你的自律、克己和谦逊中。

所有这些元素连接在一起功效非凡:它能渐渐凝聚与塑造一个成功基础,帮助你应付控制范畴以外的环境。当机遇一现,你已整装待发,有本领和勇气踏上前路。纵使没有人能告诉你前路是什么一道风景,生命长河将流往何方,然而,在这过程中,你会领悟到邱吉尔多年的名言:“只要克服困难就是赢得机会。一点点的态度,但却能造成大大的改变。”

生命抛来一颗柠檬,你是可以把它转榨为柠檬汁的人。要描绘自己独特的心灵地图,你才可发现热爱生命的你、有思维、有能力、有承担,建立自我的你;有原则、有理想,追求无我的你。

陶行知校长的演讲

各位同学:

今天我想和大家谈四个问题,叫做“每天四问”。

第一问,自己的身体有没有进步?有,进步了多少?为什么要这样问?因为健康是生命之本,有了健康的身体,我们才有本钱去寻求幸福,实现崇高的理想。否则,一切都将是空的。健康的身体,离不开自觉持久的锻炼,离不开科学合理的生活和作息。希望你们从小树立“健康第一”的观点,筑起“科学的健康堡垒”。

第二问,自己的学问有没有进步?有,进步了多少?为什么要这样问?因为“学问是一切前进活力的源泉”。我们是学生,求知是我们的主要任务,有了学问,将来才能更好的造福于社会。要想自己的学问有进步,就要专心致志,就要有坚韧不拔的意志力。要认准目标,钻进去,展开来。这样,我们就能够达到胜利的彼岸。

第三问,自己担任的工作有没有进步?有,进步了多少?为什么要这样问?因为工作的的好坏对我们今天和未来都有很大的影响。在学校和班集体中,你们多多少少都承担着一些工作,如值日、值勤、班级和学校的管理等等。这些工作虽然都是一些小事,却能培养我们的责任心,锻炼我们的办事能力,是我们将来步入社会做大事的基础。认真负责地做好自己手上的每一件事情,这也是一种学习,一种和听课、读书、作业同样重要的学习。

第四问,自己的道德有没有进步?有,进步了多少?为什么要这样问?因为道德是做人的根本。根本一坏,即使你有一些学问和本领,也不会成为对社会有用的人。社会的稳定和国家的发展,需要每个人既要讲究“公德”,也要讲究“私德”,要“建筑人格长城”。我们到学校里来,除了要学习文化知识,更要紧的是要学习做人,学习做“真人”。

以上我谈的就是“每天四问”。如果我们每天都这样问问自己,这样地激励和鞭策自己,我们就一定能在身体健康、学问进修、工作效能、道德品格各方面有长足的进步。

名人经典的演讲稿范文篇3

马云的演讲——珍惜每一次犯过的错

阿里创办至今15年,淘宝是11年,支付宝是10年。我们比较运气。这15年我们确实走得比较快,今天看过来还不错,但是期间犯的错,不亚于任何一家创办已二三十年的公司——可能比他们犯得还要多。

但是,我们检讨自己比对时代的抱怨和指责要多、我们更正自己的速度很快。这十五年我自己也老了很多。我没想到做企业会这么辛苦。当然,我也觉得自己非常幸运,幸运在我们有这样的机会。

变革一:大数据时代,光有努力是不够的。

浙商群体了不起。我们就靠着勤奋和努力做到了今天。但是,我们得思考,因为到今天光靠勤奋勇气还远远不够。当然,没有勇气是走不下去的,没有勤奋更是走不下去的。但是今天看来,光靠勤奋与努力是远远不够的。在座哪位没有勇气?谁不勤奋?谁不是晚上蹲在厕所还在想着商业?

阿里有今天是因为我们坚信未来,坚信趋势,坚信15年之后能够解决我们面临的这些问题。我那时候读胡雪岩的书印象很深刻,他有句话说得太对了。生意越来越难做,但越难做越是机会。别人不做的你就去做,你要看得更多。你看到一个县,就做一个县,你看到一个小城市你就做一个城市。你看到未来,你就做未来。阿里的红利,就是15年以前看到了今天的形势。我相信你们都是在15年之前甚至更早就看到一些东西所以才走到今天。

我们说前三十年难,后三十年难,前三十年难在摸索,后面三十年是因为技术变革,使得商业社会有了颠覆性的变化。这个就是互联网变革和技术创新带来的社会性的变化。

我们有今天,是因为我们迅速改变了自己,把握了这一天,但未来技术变革也是我们不得不面对的事实。

今天技术变革还在,它一直没有停止过。举个例子,以前出行是马车,后来有了电车。电车与出租车第一次出现的时候,那些马车夫都觉得很恼火,都想去砸掉。但后来也会习以为常,一个新的东西出现总会让大家不那么适应,可能会触动一些既有的利益。大家现在看到的不是一种业务,而是一种时代的变革。

我们一直在谈大数据,那么大数据是什么概念?我觉得大计算起来才算大数据,否则数据不连通就是一堆垃圾。

变革二:重塑组织机构帮助你的企业成为百年企业。

我天天提醒自己,我们过去常说,四十岁替员工干,五十岁替别人干。我们要重建公司的组织架构和商业体系。做商人,有所为有所不为,企业,其实就是建组织,你整个制度体系的建设才是最重要的。

过去几年,我们花了最大的时间和精力不是在数据和钱上,而是在人才和组织上,没有人才储备和奖惩体系,所有的战略都是白说的。你一个人干到死,没有用,必须有组织来干。我可以很负责地告诉你,你要是说的和做的不一样,你的员工马上跳起来,组织分分钟解散。我们必须要求自己言行合一。

只有建立组织体系才能不断的把握自己,只有在把握趋势的时候,才能掌握组织。我们喜欢谈企业文化,但其实那些规章、守则都不是企业文化,文化就是DNA,就是你行为的标准,规章越多,文化越弱。文化是自己的行为。只有自己的行为才是企业的文化与标杆所在。

变革三:要知道自己要什么放弃什么。

互联网能做的东西很多,但我们做我们该做的。我们不是挣更多钱,我们是围绕真正帮你的客户,帮那些相信你的企业去做一些事情。

阿里这家公司不是我的,是我有幸参与的。我们去看历史上中国的商人,有几个有好的结果?都没有什么好的结果,结局都很糟糕。要保持好的结果,就是知己知彼,知道自己有什么要什么放弃什么,知道客户需要什么?那么,这个公司交给谁。最后我想明白了,最后应该交给社会,交给社会了,大家去管理这个公司才可以。

回应质疑:我不是耍大牌。

现在有人说,马云脑子有问题,并购这个并购那个,但是批评我们的之前也没有理解我们,他也不会明白你的未来。

我们始终坚持“让天下没有难做的生意”,我们坚持为中小企业搭建平台,我们坚持客户第一,员工第二,股东第三,这个原则不会变。

现在很多人找我找不到,觉得我耍大牌,我不是耍大牌,我是真没时间。从前小企业你做一些变革叫创新,大家都会鼓掌,大企业做一些突破,遇到的障碍会越来越多举报。

名人演讲稿——王石:担心下一个倒台的就是万科

亚布力论坛夏季高峰会上,万科董事会主席王石坦言,万科现在仍然困惑于企业下个十年的转型问题,很担心下一个倒下的就是万科。 以下为演讲实录:

作为最后的发言者,原本准备了四个故事,我临时又增加了一个故事。这几天不断地接到“冰桶挑战”的邀请,但是我一直没有回应,因为发现如果再承诺,估计捐款就会涨到几千美金了。钱不是问题,问题是我总要有一个表态,所以上来的时候,我拿着一瓶矿泉水。

今天早晨我进行锻炼,教练很礼貌地在我边上放了一瓶矿泉水,我没有喝。之后换了一个地方锻炼,他又给我拿了一瓶新的矿泉水,我仍然没动它。他不知道我的习惯,我是不喝矿泉水的。

我们宣传任何一项公益活动,都是用我们的行为来做,表演不如我们的实际行动。如果只是明星来做这个事当然没问题,为了娱乐、消费,但在这里如果你们以为我要做“冰桶挑战”那不可能,我只是想让大家尽量少喝这种瓶装矿泉水。

我们阿拉善是企业家公益宣传和交流的一个平台,创会会长刘晓光先生如果在的话请他站起来,如果不在,我向他表示我的尊重,这是我想增加的一个故事。所以你们指望我有表演,我现在回应,请你们不要再进行挑战,我对“渐冻人”的关心捐了款,但是不要再去炒作。

接下来我还要讲四个故事。 第

一、领先受阻。

今天开这个会我知道,有一半的企业家10年没有来到河南,为什么?中原是必经之地,为什么没有到过这里呢?是因为忽略它了。他们觉得这个地方难缠,是个农业大省,但不是经济大省,这里我讲的不是总量,是各个方面,包括效益、环境。

昨天晚上的发言我没有准备,吞吞吐吐,很仓促,但是省长还对我进行了表扬,说王石说实话了。我说河南人际关系太复杂,我们的副书记也在。上一届在武汉,我就说湖北人有双重性,你用文明对待他,他比你还文明;你如果用野蛮对待他,他比你还野蛮。为什么会这样?因为土文化,传统来讲,当然跟河南比,文化最丰富的还是中原,它历史更悠久。但是比先进,张之洞的洋务运动重点就是武汉,把第一个铁厂、纱厂等开设在武汉,用文明来对付你。你文明,我比你更文明。 而河南用另外一个词更能说明问题——“领先受阻”。什么叫领先受阻呢?河南是中原,如果说文明的话,有五千年文明史。中原文化,从夏、商以后算,四千年当中,有两千年的文明在河南,而不是在陕西。

现在说陕西西安那边,河南人不服气,其实是有道理的。八大古都,河南占了四个,郑州就是一个,还有开封、洛阳、安阳,这是从历史角度来讲的。但正因为历史上的这种先进,反而成了它的阻碍,文明成了它的包袱。

有没有例外呢?当然有例外。我是搞房地产的,和湖南建业的胡葆森先生关系非常好。虽然葆森的业务在河南,但他在全国工商界当中,身上具有很多中原文化的优良传统:写一手好字,打得一手好篮球。河南如何振兴,如何突破自己的包袱是非常重要的。归根结底,就是要放下,背着历史的包袱,往往就阻碍了先进。

第二、如何放下?

1999年我辞去了总经理的职务,到现在还是董事长。很多人就担心,说万一市场不好了,万一发生巨变了,你还会不会再重新上马?我说我不会。中间是有几次危机的,但是我都没有再回去当总经理。

2005年曲向东组织了戈壁挑战赛,有一个主题就是放下。其中有一个演示,父老乡亲们可以回去试一下,一根竹竿八个人,大家一块把竹竿放下来。如果你提前放下离开了就会被淘汰,这个比赛是非常有意思的。连续三次,这个竹竿不仅没有放下来,反而被抬上去了。因为高度不一样,结果这个竹竿就落下来了,失败了。我们试了第二次、第三次都是同样的问题,这个规则就是,最后的那个人胜利了。因为他怕被淘汰掉,所以谁都不敢离开那个地方,他就往上贴,一贴的结果不是往下放的。说放下,大家都在往下放。

作为企业家来讲,就是规模战略,结果就是这样。要放下是不容易的。一个人、一个企业一定有生命周期,百年老店是非常不容易的。现在万科正在做第四个十年规划,不要说百年了,第四个十年能不能过去我们都不太清楚,做了8个月的规划还没有出来。

第三、对未来的担当。

改革开放36年,企业到今天也应该有担当了。万科也开始国际化了,进入美国,在美国进行投资,其中我们有三个理由。首先我们随同客户过去,因为万科现在有很多客户开始到海外去置业,置业之一就是买房子,而我们本身就是开发房地产的。为什么他们出去到国外买房子?我认为有以下几个理由:一是为了子女,为了小孩上学买房子;二是投资的置业配置,现在国内限购,不允许你买,那就到国外去买;三是准备拔腿跑的。 企业家为什么要拔腿跑?因为感到生命不安全、财产不安全。但我认为,企业家应该要承担风险,包括社会变动的风险。改革开放36年了,我们如果不承担风险,没有担当,你让谁来担当?政治家有政治家的担当,我们企业家应该有企业家的担当。

企业家要担当的责任,首先是解决就业,给消费者提供产品,要给国家交税。我把万科这三年向国家交税的情况向父老乡亲汇报一下,跟我们的同仁交流一下。

2011年、2012年在民营企业五百强当中,万科交税仅次于华为,排名第二。2013年万科在民营企业排名五百强第十位,我们交税从第二位上升到了第一位,去年我们交税258亿。此处希望你们给我一点掌声。回到河南,向父老乡亲说这个事是我最得意的。

既然讲到担当,这里不得不提一位我很尊重的企业家——褚时建。由于时间的问题不能展开,但是我想说的是,大家都关注的是褚时建曾经的烟厂辉煌和他之后再重新创业,创立褚橙。但我想说的是,我们仅仅看他烟厂的创业、75岁高龄以及10年创办褚橙的故事,不能对这个人进行一个完整的判断。

褚时建是解放前期参加的革命,参加了游击队,之后就当干部,这个干部一直当到1957年反右。原先他是反右工作组的组长,但是不幸他被打成右派,之后开始了长时间的农场生活。农场生活的第一份工作是造纸厂的厂长,之后他又换了工作,就是榨糖厂的厂长,换工作是给他平反之后,也是在*结束后。

当时问他为什么做榨糖厂?他说很简单,当时有两个选择,一个是去采矿厂,一个去榨糖厂。他当时的选择是愿意到采矿厂,可以打鸟,可以打猎。但他太太觉得不应该回到山沟里面,他们当时回到了玉溪,一个快破产的烟厂,之后的故事大家就很清楚了。因为现在万科正在做褚老的案例,这个研究很有意思。

50年代在他被摘帽之前,他做的纸厂也好,糖厂也好,按照当时整个云南同行的水平,他已经达到了最好,质量好、效益好。他能做到今天不是偶然的,体现的是一种企业家精神,这种企业家精神让人感慨万千。

如果我们说中国没有企业家精神也不对,为什么呢?褚时建先生没有出过省,甚至他没有出过玉溪地区。就这样一个云南玉溪的本土人,他做成了国际级的企业,有很多值得我们学习的地方。与向国外学习相比,我们更应该回来向自己学习。这个时候我们回来,可以看到河南的先进理论的法则,就是从胡葆森先生身上看到的很多中华民族的优良传统,在他企业中发挥了作用。

我和胡葆森先生是倒过来的,我虽然在河南长大,但是没有受过家庭的熏陶,没有对书法的爱好。一直很庆幸自己很国际化,没有受到传统文化的熏染,所以万科相对而言是比较国际化的。 现在有一个时髦的词叫做“深潜”,就是要深入地学习西方文化。这一深入不要紧,结果发现深入不下去,就是你想了解人家是怎么回事,首先应该弄清楚自己是怎么回事,你从哪儿来。中国的传统文化喜欢不喜欢是一回事,了解不了解又是另外一回事,而我还没有了解就不喜欢,这是不对的。我们现在需要反思,需要学习我们传统的东西。因为把传统割断了无法往前走,这就是我想说的放下和责任的故事。

第四、万科30年的规划。

今年是万科30周年。我记得非常清楚,10年前万科做第三个十年规划的时候,是数量级增长,和我们国家一样的,不要说我们国家总是说GDP,一个企业也是这样,就是你的营业额。但是国家在转型,企业在转型,我们在转型当中,下一个十年怎么办?我们是有困惑的。

所以我们讨论了八个月,到现在都没有弄清楚。和十年前的规划做讨论,到底是什么,到现在也不清楚,到年底是不是有一个结果也不知道。

尽管不知道,但是我们有什么是知道的呢?一定从数量向质量转化,因为我们是老大,老

二、老三在挑战,我们当然很紧张。但是一紧张,下一步被淘汰的就是自己。根据万科的历史,我估计下一个倒台的可能就是万科。

我们看看万科怎样成为全世界第一的。1997年亚洲金融风暴,当时中国最大的房地产公司倒下了,我们成了中国第一。过了10年,2008年我们学习了全世界最大的住宅开发公司帕尔迪,当时只有他的70%,当然我们没有要超过他。没想到一个金融风暴我们不但超过他了,美国的第

二、第三加起来也没有我们高,所以我们很自豪。

下一个该谁了呢?下一个就该我们万科了,因为组织先进法则也符合万科的现状,因为你大了,你觉得有成就了。实际上今天到这里来开会的上午,我还和万科的团队讨论之后的十年,他们讲万科继续领衔往前跑,我说不一定,这只是一个可能的选项。如何可持续发展?我们现在确实要有重新的参照系,不仅仅更多地向国外学习,不仅仅是“深潜”学习西方,还要更多地回顾我们的历史和过去。

名人经典演讲稿

我们不能单独行动。当我们行动时,我们必须保证勇往直前。我们不能后退。有人问热心民权运动的人:“你们什么时候会感到满意?”只要黑人依然是不堪形容的警-察暴行恐怖的牺牲品,我们就决不会满意。只要我们在旅途劳顿后,却被公路旁汽车游客旅社和城市旅馆拒之门外,我们就决不会满意。只要黑人的基本活动范围只限于从狭小的黑人居住区到较大的黑人居住区,我们就决不会满意。只要我们的孩子被“仅供白人”的牌子剥夺个性,损毁尊严,我们就决不会满意。只要密西西比州的黑人不能参加选举,纽约州的黑人认为他们与选举毫不相干,我们就决不会满意。不,不,我们不会满意,直至公正似水奔流,正义如泉喷涌。

I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations.Some of you have come fresh from narrow cells.Some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality.You have been the veterans of creative suffering.Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive. 我并非没有注意到你们有些人历尽艰难困苦来到这里。你们有些人刚刚走出狭小的牢房。有些人来自因追求自由而遭受迫-害风暴袭击和警-察暴虐狂飙摧残的地区。你们饱经风霜,历尽苦难。继续努力吧,要相信:无辜受苦终得拯救。 Go back to Miiippi, go back to Alabama, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.Let us not wallow in the valley of despair. 回到密西西比去吧;回到亚拉巴马去吧;回到南卡罗来纳去吧;回到佐治亚去吧;回到路易斯安那去吧;回到我们北方城市中的贫民窟和黑人居住区去吧。要知道,这种情况能够而且将会改变。我们切不要在绝望的深渊里沉沦。

I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream.It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. 朋友们,今天我要对你们说,尽管眼下困难重重,但我依然怀有一个梦。这个梦深深植根于美国梦之中。

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: \"We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.\" 我梦想有一天,这个国家将会奋起,实现其立国信条的真谛:“我们认为这些真理不言而喻:人人生而平等。”

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood. 我梦想有一天,在佐治亚州的红色山岗上,昔日奴隶的儿子能够同昔日奴隶主的儿子同席而坐,亲如手足。

I have a dream that one day even the state of Miiippi, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppreion, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. 【扩展阅读篇】

演讲稿又叫演说词,它是在大会上或其他公开场合发表个人的观点、见解和主张的文稿。演讲稿的好坏直接决 定了演讲的成功与失败。

演讲稿像议论文一样论点鲜明、逻辑性强,但它又不是一般的议论文。它是一种带有宣传性和鼓动性的应用文体,经常使用各种修辞手法和艺术手法,具有较强的感染力。

演讲未必都使用演讲稿,不少著名的演讲都是即兴之作,由别人经过记录流传开来的。但重要的演讲最好还是事先准备好演讲稿,因为演讲稿至少有两个方面的作用:其一,通过对思路的精心梳理,对材料的精心组织,使演讲内容更加深刻和富有条理。其二,可帮助演讲者消除临场紧张、恐惧的心理,增强演讲者的自信心。

演讲稿特点

主要区别

演讲和表演、作文有很大的区别。

首先,演讲是演讲者就人们普遍关注的某种有意义的事物或问题,通过口头语言面对一定场合的听众,直接发表意

见的一种社会活动。

其次,作文是作者通过文章向读者单方面的输出信息,演讲则是演讲者在现场与听众双向交流信息。严格地讲,演讲是演讲者与听众、听众与听众的三角信息交流,演讲者不能以传达自己的思想和情感、情绪为满足,他必须能控制住自己与听众、听众与听众情绪的应和与交流。所以,为演讲准备的稿子就具有以下三个特点:

主要特点

一、针对性。演讲是一种社会活动,是用于公众场合的宣传形式。它为了以思想、感情、事例和理论来晓喻听众,打动听众,“征服”群众,必须要有现实的针对性。所谓针对性,首先是作者提出的问题是听众所关心的问题,评论和论辨要有雄辩的逻辑力量,要能为听众所接受并心悦诚服,这样,才能起到应有的社会效果;其次是要懂得听众有不同的对象 和不同的层次,而“公众场合”也有不同的类型,如党团集会、专业性会议、服务性俱乐部、学校、社会团体、宗教团体、各类竞赛场合,写作时要根据不同场合和不同对象,为听众设计不同的演讲内容。

二、可讲性。演讲的本质在于“讲”,而不在于“演”,它以“讲”为主、以“演”为辅。由于演讲要诉诸口头,拟稿时必须以易说能讲为前提。如果说,有些文章和作品主要通过阅读欣赏,领略其中意义和情味,那么,演讲稿的要求则是“上口入耳”。一篇好的演讲稿对演讲者来说要可讲;对听讲者来说应好听。因此,演讲稿写成之后,作者最好能通过试讲或默念加以检查,凡是讲不顺口或听不清楚之处(如句子过长),均应修改与调整。

三、鼓动性。演讲是一门艺术。好的演讲自有一种激发听众情绪、赢得好感的鼓动性。要做到这一点,首先要依靠演讲稿思想内容的丰富、深刻,见解精辟,有独到之处,发人深思,语言表达要形象、生动,富有感染力。如果演讲稿写得平淡无味,毫无新意,即使在现场“演”得再卖力,效果也不会好,甚至相反。

四、整体性演讲稿并不能独立地完成演讲任务,它只是演讲的一个文字依据,是整个演讲活动的一个组成部分。演讲主体、听众对象、特定的时空条件,

共同构成了演讲活动的整体。撰写演讲稿时,不能将它从整体中剥离出来。为此,演讲稿的撰写要注意以下几个方面:

首先,要根据听众的文化层次、工作性质、生存环境、品位修养、爱好愿望来确立选题,选择表达方式,以便更好地沟通。

其次,演讲稿不仅要充分体现演讲者独到、深刻的观点和见解,而且还要对声调的高低、语速的快慢、体态语的运用进行设计并加以注释,以达到最佳的传播效果。

另外,还要考虑演讲的时间、空间、现场氛围等因素,以强化演讲的现场效果。

第五、口语性 口语性是演讲稿区别于其他书面表达文章和会议文书的重要方面。书面性文章无需多说,其他会议文书如大会工作报告、领导讲话稿等,并不太讲究口语性,虽然由某一领导在台上宣读,但听众手中一般也有一份印制好的讲稿,一边听讲一边阅读,不会有什么听不明白的地方。演讲稿就不同了,它有较多的即兴发挥,不可能事先印好讲稿发给听众。为此,演讲稿必须讲究“上口”和“入耳”。所谓上口,就是讲起来通达流利。所谓入耳,就是听起来非常顺畅,没有什么语言障碍,不会发生曲解。具体要做到:

把长句改成适听的短句; 把倒装句改为常规句; 把听不明白的文言词语、成语加以改换或删去; 把单音节词换成双音节词; 把生僻的词换成常用的词; 把容易误听的词换成不易误听的词。

这样,才能保证讲起来朗朗上口,听起来清楚明白。 第

六、临场性

演讲活动是演讲者与听众面对面的一种交流和沟通。听众会对演讲内容及时作出反应:或表示赞同,或表示反对,或饶有兴趣,或无动于衷。演讲者对听众的各种反映不能置之不顾,因此,写演讲稿时,要充分考虑它的临场性,在保证内容完整的前提下,要注意留有伸缩的余地。要充分考虑到演讲时可能出现的种种问题,以及应付各种情况的对策。总之,演讲稿要具有弹性,要体现出必要的控场技巧。

主要功能

第一、“使人知”演讲。这是一种以传达信息、阐明事理为主要功能的演讲。它的目的在于使人知道、明白。如美学家朱光潜的演讲《谈作文》,讲了作文前的准备、文章体裁、构思、选材等,使听众明白了作文的基本知识。它的特点是知识性强,语言准确。

第二、“使人信”演讲。这种演讲的主要目的是使人信赖、相信。它从“使人知”演讲发展而来。如恽代英的演讲《怎样才是好人》,不仅告知人们哪些人不是好人,也提出了三条衡量好人的标准,通过一系列的道理论述,改变了人们以往的旧观念。它的特点是观点独到、正确,论据翔实、确凿,论证合理、严密。

第三、“使人激”演讲。这种演讲意在使听众激动起来,在思想感情上与你产生共鸣,从而欢呼、雀跃。如美国黑人运动领袖马丁.路德.金的《在林肯纪念堂前的演说》,用他的几个“梦想”激发广大的黑人听众的自尊感、自强感,激励他们为“生而平等”而奋斗。

第四、“使人动”演讲。这比“使人激”演讲进了一步,它可使听众产生一种欲与演讲者一起行动的想法。法国前总统戴高乐在二战期间的英国伦敦作的演讲《告法国人民书》,号召法国人民行动起来,投身反法西斯的行列。它的特点是鼓动性强,多以号召、呼吁式的语言结尾。

第五、“使人乐”演讲。这是一种以活跃气氛、调节情绪,使人快乐为主要功能的演讲,多以幽默、笑话或调侃为材料,一般常出现在喜庆的场合。这种演讲的事例很多,人们大都能听到。它的特点是材料幽默,语言诙谐。 篇2:名人经典演讲稿

罗斯福:国会珍珠港演讲

mr.vice president,mr.speaker,members of the senate,and of the house of representatives:

yesterday,december 7th,1941--a date which will live in infamy--the united states of america was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the empire of japan. it will be recorded that the distance of hawaii from japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago.during the intervening time,the japanese government has deliberately sought to deceive the united states by false statements and expreions of hope for continued peace. the attack yesterday on the hawaiian islands has caused severe damage to american naval and military forces.i regret to tell you that very many american lives have been lost.in addition,american ships have been reported torpedoed on the high seas between san francis co and honolulu yesterday,the japanese government also launched an attack against malaya.last night,japanese forces attacked hong kong. last night,japanese forces attacked guam. last night,japanese forces attacked the philippine islands. last night,the japanese attacked wake island. and thi--orning,the japanese attacked midway island. japan has,therefore,undertaken asurprise offensive extending throughout the pacific area.the facts of yesterday and today speak for themselves.the people of the united stateshave already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation. i believe that iinterpret the will of the congre and of the people when iaert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost,but will make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again endanger us. hostilities exist.there is no blinking at the fact that our people,our territory,and our interests are in grave danger. with confidence in our armed forces,with the unbounding determination of our people,we will gain the inevitable triumph--so help us god. i ask that the congre declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by japan on sunday,december 7th,1941,a state of war has existed between the united states and the japanese empire. 副总统先生、议长先生、参众两院各位议员:

昨天,1941年12月7日——一个遗臭万年的日期——美利坚合众国遭到了日本帝国海空军蓄谋已久的进攻。

合众国当时同日本处于和平状态,并且,根据日本的请求,当时仍在同该国政府和天皇进行会谈,以期维护太平洋和平。实际上,就在日本空军中队已经开始轰炸美国瓦湖岛之后的一小时,日本驻合众国大使还向我们的国务卿提交了对合众国最近致日方信函的正式答复。虽然复函声称继续现行外交谈判似已无用,但并未包含有关战争或武装进攻的威胁或暗示。历史将会证明,夏威夷距日本这么遥远,表明这次进攻是经过许多天或甚至许多个星期精心策划的。在此期间,日本政府蓄意以虚伪的声明和表示继续维护和平的愿望来欺骗美国。昨天

对夏威夷岛的进攻给美国海陆军部队造成了严重的损害。我遗憾地告诉各位,很多美国人丧失了生命,此外,据报,美国船只在旧金山和火奴鲁鲁(檀香山)之间的公海上也遭到了鱼雷袭击。

昨天,日本政府已发动了对马来亚的进击。

昨夜,日本军队袭击了香港。

昨夜,日本军队袭击了关岛。

昨夜,日本军队袭击了菲律宾群岛。

昨夜,日本人袭击了威克岛。 今晨,日本人袭击了中途岛。

因此,日本在整个太平洋地区采取了突然地攻势。发生在昨天和今天的事证实了这一点。美国的人民已经形成了自己的见解,并且十分清楚这关系到我们国家的安全和生存的本身。 作为三军总司令,我已指示,采取一切措施保卫我们的国家。

我们整个国家都将永远记住此次对我们进攻的性质。不论要用多长的时间才能战胜此次蓄谋已久的入侵,美国人民以自己的正义力量一定要赢得绝对的胜利。

我现在预言,我们不仅要做出最大的努力来保卫我们自己,我们还将确保这种形式的背信弃义永远不会再危及我们。我这样说,相信是表达了国会和人民的意志。战争已经开始,无庸讳言,我国人民、我国领土和我国利益都处于严重危险之中。

相信我们的武装部队——依靠我国人民的坚定决心——我们将取得必然的胜利,愿上帝保佑我们!我要求国会宣布:自1941年12月7日星期日日本发动无端的、卑鄙的进攻时起,合众国和日本帝国之间已处于战争状态。林肯:葛底斯堡演讲

but,in alarger sense,we can not dedicate--we can not consecrate--we can not hallow--this ground.the brave men,living and dead,who struggled here,have consecrated it,far above our poor power to add or detract.the world will little note,nor long remember what we say here,but it can never forget what they did here.it is for us the living,rather,to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.it is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain--that this nation,under god,shall have anew birth of freedom--and that government of the people,by the people,for the people,shall not perish from the earth. 八十七年之前,我们的祖先在这大陆上建立了一个国家,它孕育于自由,并且投身给一种理念,即所有人都是小时候起平等的。

时下,我们正在从事一次伟大的内战,我们在磨练,究竟这个国家,或任何一个有这种主张和这种信仰的国家,是否能长久存在。我们在那次战争的一个伟大的战场上集会。我们来到这里,奉献阿谁战场上的一部分土地,作为在此地为阿谁国家的保存而牺牲了自己生命的人的永世眠息之所。我们这样做,是十分合情合理的。

可是,就更深一层意义而言,我们是无从奉献这片土地的--无从使它成为圣地--也不克不及把它变为许多人景仰之所。那些在这里战斗的猛士,活着的和死去的,已使这块土地神圣化了,远非我们的菲薄能力所能左右。世人会半大注意,更不会长久想的起来我们在此地所说的话,然而他们将永远忘不了这些人在这里所做的事。相反,我们活着的人应该投身于那些曾在此作战的许多人所英勇推动而尚未完成的事情。我们应该在此投身于我们面前所留存的伟大事情--由于他们的庆幸牺牲,我们要更坚定地致力于他们曾作最后全数贡献的阿谁事业--我们在此立志宣誓,不克不及让他们白白死去--要使这个国家在天主的保佑之下,获患上 新生的自由--要使那民有、民治、民享的政府不致从地球上消失。篇2:影响你一生的名人励志演讲

we must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline.篇3:名人演讲稿

Richard M.Nixon The Great Silent Majority delivered 3 November 1969 演讲者简介:理查德·米尔豪斯·尼克松(Richard Milhous Nixon,1913年1月9日-1994年4月22日),第36任美国副总统(1953年-1961年)与第37任美国总统(1969年-1974年)。尼克松是美国史上唯一当过两届总统与两届副总统的人,但也是唯一于在位期间,以辞职的方式离开总统职位的美国总统。演讲背景介绍:1969年,美国深陷越南战争的泥潭,为了应付国内国外的压力弄的焦头烂额。在越南,美军损兵折将,而在国内,反战运动风起云涌(看过《阿甘正传》的应该对反战运动的“盛况”有所认识)。越战这个烫手的山芋于是如同现在的伊拉克一般,成了食之无味而弃之可惜的鸡肋。当时的美国总统尼克松为了应对危局,在国内寻求广泛的人民的首肯,提出了“沉默的大多数”这个说法。

尼克松说,那些站出来游行示威、强烈反对越战、甚至攻击警察机关的人们,虽然显得声势浩大,但实际上却并非是多数,而绝大多数美国人的声音却被这些激进的呼喊所掩盖;绝大多数美国人都是爱国的,不希望国家走入颓势,只是种种原因,他们并未站出来表达自己的意见,而是处于沉默状态。

虽然,也有批评人士认为这是尼克松为自己的越战政策涂脂抹粉。但他们也不得不承认,尼克松的这番话还真取得了不俗的效果,听过其演说的人,对他的支持率将近八成,而随后1972年的大选,尼克松以压倒性的胜利获得连任,也不能不提这“沉默的大多数”的功劳。

Good evening, my fellow Americans. 晚上好!亲爱的同胞们:

Tonight I want to talk to you on a subject of deep concern to all Americans and to many people in all parts of the world, the war in Vietnam.今晚,我想与各位探讨一个问题,这是所有美国人和全球无数人所深切关注的一个问题——越南战争。

I believe that one of the reasons for the deep division about Vietnam is that many Americans have lost confidence in what their Government has told them about our policy.The American people cannot and should not be asked to support a policy which involves the overriding iues of war and peace unle they know the truth about that policy. 我认为,在关于越南战争一事上,大家的观点出现了严重分歧的一个重要原因在于:很多美国民众对我们的政府所宣扬的政策已失去了信心。当前情况下,除非美国人民真正认清政策本质,否则不能也不应该被要求去支持涉及战争与和平等重大问题的政策。

Tonight, therefore, I would like to answer some of the questions that I know are on the minds of many of you listening to me. 所以,今晚,我想借此机会回答一些问题,一些萦绕在你们许多人脑海中的问题。

How and why did America get involved in Vietnam in the first place?How has this administration changed the policy of the previous Administration? What has really happened in the negotiations in Paris and on the battlefront in Vietnam? What choices do we have if we are to end the war? What are the prospects for peace? Now let me begin by describing the situation I found when I was inaugurated on January 20: The war had been going on for four years.Thirty-one thousand Americans had been killed in action.The training program for the South Vietnamese was beyond [behind] schedule.Five hundred and forty-thousand Americans were in Vietnam with no plans to reduce the number.No progre had been made at the negotiations in Paris and the United States had not put forth a comprehensive peace proposal. The war was causing deep division at home and criticism from many of our friends, as well as our enemies, abroad. In view of these circumstances, there were some who urged that I end the war at once by ordering the immediate withdrawal of all American forces.From a political standpoint, this would have been a popular and easy course to follow.After all, we became involved in the war while my predeceor was in office.I could blame the defeat, which would be the result of my action, on him -- and come out as the peacemaker.Some put it to me quite bluntly: This was the only way to avoid allowing Johnson’s war to become Nixon’s war. But I had a greater obligation than to think only of the years of my Administration, and of the next election.I had to think of the effect of my decision on the next generation, and on the future of peace and freedom in America, and in the world. Let us all understand that the question before us is not whether some Americans are for peace and some Americans are against peace.The question at iue is not whether Johnson’s war becomes Nixon’s war.The great question is: How can we win America’s peace? Well, let us turn now to the fundamental iue: Why and how did the United States become involved in Vietnam in the first place? Fifteen years ago North Vietnam, with the logistical support of Communist China and the Soviet Union, launched a campaign to impose a Communist government on South Vietnam by instigating and supporting a revolution.In response to the request of the Government of South Vietnam, President Eisenhower sent economic aid and military equipment to aist the people of South Vietnam in their efforts to prevent a Communist takeover.Seven years ago, President Kennedy sent 16,000 military personnel to Vietnam as combat advisers.Four years ago, President Johnson sent American combat forces to South Vietnam.Now many believe that President Johnson’s decision to send American combat forces to South Vietnam was wrong.And many others, I among them, have been strongly critical of the way the war has been conducted. But the question facing us today is: Now that we are in the war, what is the best way to end it? In January I could only conclude that the precipitate withdrawal of all American forces from Vietnam would be a disaster not only for South Vietnam but for the United States and for the cause of peace.For the South Vietnamese, our precipitate withdrawal would inevitably allow the Communists to repeat the maacres which followed their takeover in the North 15 years before.They then murdered more than 50,000 people and hundreds of thousands more died in slave labor camps. We saw a prelude of what would happen in South Vietnam when the Communists entered the city of Hue last year.During their brief rule there, there was a bloody reign of terror in which 3,000 civilians were clubbed, shot to death, and buried in ma graves. With the sudden collapse of our support, these atrocities at Hue would become the nightmare of the entire nation and particularly for the million-and-a half Catholic refugees who fled to South Vietnam when the Communists took over in the North.For the United States this first defeat in our nation’s history would result in a collapse of confidence in American leadership not only in Asia but throughout the world. Three American Presidents have recognized the great stakes involved in Vietnam and understood what had to be done. In 1963 President Kennedy with his characteristic eloquence and clarity said, \"We want to see a stable Government there,\" carrying on the [a] struggle to maintain its national independence.\" We believe strongly in that.We are not going to withdraw from that effort.In my opinion, for us to withdraw from that effort would mean a collapse not only of South Vietnam but Southeast Asia.So we’re going to stay there.\"President Eisenhower and President Johnson expreed the same conclusion during their terms of office. For the future of peace, precipitate withdrawal would be a disaster of immense magnitude.A nation cannot remain great if it betrays its allies and lets down its friends.Our defeat and humiliation in South Vietnam without question would promote recklene in the councils of those great powers who have not yet abandoned their goals of worlds conquest.This would spark violence wherever our commitments help maintain the peace -- in the Middle East, in Berlin, eventually even in the Western Hemisphere.Ultimately, this would cost more lives.It would not bring peace.It would bring more war. For these reasons I rejected the recommendation that I should end the war by immediately withdrawing all of our forces.I chose instead to change American policy on both the negotiating front and the battle front in order to end the war fought on many fronts.I initiated a pursuit for peace on many fronts.In a television speech on May 14, in a speech

昨天,1941年12月7日——一个遗臭万年的日期——美利坚合众国遭到了日本帝国海空军蓄谋已久的进攻。

合众国当时同日本处于和平状态,并且,根据日本的请求,当时仍在同该国政府和天皇进行会谈,以期维护太平洋和平。实际上,就在日本空军中队已经开始轰炸美国瓦湖岛之后的一小时,日本驻合众国大使还向我们的国务卿提交了对合众国最近致日方信函的正式答复。虽然复函声称继续现行外交谈判似已无用,但并未包含有关战争或武装进攻的威胁或暗示。历史将会证明,夏威夷距日本这么遥远,表明这次进攻是经过许多天或甚至许多个星期精心策划的。在此期间,日本政府蓄意以虚伪的声明和表示继续维护和平的愿望来欺骗美国。昨天对夏威夷岛的进攻给美国海陆军部队造成了严重的损害。我遗憾地告诉各位,很多美国人丧失了生命,此外,据报,美国船只在旧金山和火奴鲁鲁(檀香山)之间的公海上也遭到了鱼雷袭击。

昨天,日本政府已发动了对马来亚的进击。 昨夜,日本军队袭击了香港。 昨夜,日本军队袭击了关岛。

昨夜,日本军队袭击了菲律宾群岛。 昨夜,日本人袭击了威克岛。 今晨,日本人袭击了中途岛。

因此,日本在整个太平洋地区采取了突然地攻势。发生在昨天和今天的事证实了这一点。美国的人民已经形成了自己的见解,并且十分清楚这关系到我们国家的安全和生存的本身。 作为三军总司令,我已指示,采取一切措施保卫我们的国家。

我们整个国家都将永远记住此次对我们进攻的性质。不论要用多长的时间才能战胜此次蓄谋已久的入侵,美国人民以自己的正义力量一定要赢得绝对的胜利。

我现在预言,我们不仅要做出最大的努力来保卫我们自己,我们还将确保这种形式的背信弃义永远不会再危及我们。我这样说,相信是表达了国会和人民的意志。战争已经开始,无庸讳言,我国人民、我国领土和我国利益都处于严重危险之中。

相信我们的武装部队——依靠我国人民的坚定决心——我们将取得必然的胜利,愿上帝保佑我们!我要求国会宣布:自1941年12月7日星期日日本发动无端的、卑鄙的进攻时起,合众国和日本帝国之间已处于战争状态。林肯:葛底斯堡演讲

four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent,a new nation,conceived in liberty,and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.but,in alarger sense,we can not dedicate--we can not consecrate--we can not hallow--this ground.the brave men,living and dead,who struggled here,have consecrated it,far above our poor power to add or detract.the world will little note,nor long remember what we say here,but it can never forget what they did here.it is for us the living,rather,to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.it is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain--that this nation,under god,shall have anew birth of freedom--and that government of the people,by the people,for the people,shall not perish from the earth. 八十七年之前,我们的祖先在这大陆上建立了一个国家,它孕育于自由,并且投身给一种理念,即所有人都是小时候起平等的。

时下,我们正在从事一次伟大的内战,我们在磨练,究竟这个国家,或任何一个有这种主张和这种信仰的国家,是否能长久存在。我们在那次战争的一个伟大的战场上集会。我们来到这里,奉献阿谁战场上的一部分土地,作为在此地为阿谁国家的保存而牺牲了自己生命的人的永世眠息之所。我们这样做,是十分合情合理的。

可是,就更深一层意义而言,我们是无从奉献这片土地的--无从使它成为圣地--也不克不及把它变为许多人景仰之所。那些在这里战斗的猛士,活着的和死去的,已使这块土地神圣化了,远非我们的菲薄能力所能左右。世人会半大注意,更不会长久想的起来我们在此地所说的话,然而他们将永远忘不了这些人在这里所做的事。相反,我们活着的人应该投身于那些曾在此作战的许多人所英勇推动而尚未完成的事情。我们应该在此投身于我们面前所留存的伟大事情--由于他们的庆幸牺牲,我们要更坚定地致力于他们曾作最后全数贡献的阿谁事业--我们在此立志宣誓,不克不及让他们白白死去--要使这个国家在天主的保佑之下,获患上新生的自由--要使那民有、民治、民享的政府不致从地球上消失。篇2:影响你一生的名人励志演讲

——美国著名电视节目主持人奥普拉·温弗瑞2008年在斯坦福大学毕业典礼上发表的演讲 世界名人知多少

齐:各位同学大家好!古往今来,许多著名的人物永远留在了我们的心中,给我们提供了很好的榜样。文天祥“人生自古谁无死,留取丹心照汗青”的崇高气节,司马迁遭受宫刑,没有绝望,书写了“史家之绝唱,无韵之离骚”的传奇,贝多芬失聪,但他扼住命运的喉咙,创作出著名的命运交响曲,鲁迅弃医从文的爱国情操。张海迪顽强不屈的意志,无不让我们钦佩。今天,就让我们一起走进名人,了解名人的世界。 齐:同学们,今天我们班队会的主题是:名人知多少。

朱:大家课外一定读了名人的故事吧!你读出来或讲出来让我们大家都认识认识你所认识的名人。

姜:对了,下课时我看见有许多同学在演名人的故事,也准备的同学上来表演一下吧! 吴:大家表演得真好!我也带来了几个名人故事。

朱:同学们,你们有什么感受,或是想对爱迪生说些什么? 姜:我也带来了一个故事请大家欣赏!

吴:你们有什么想对查理士 ` 达尔文 说的吗?

姜:我也读一读我课外收集的名人小故事!北宋大文学家、政治家范仲淹曾给后人留下了“先天下之忧而忧,后天下之乐而乐”的千古名句,千百年来受到了人们的赞誉。可是他幼年却很不幸,出身贫寒,无力上学,只好跑到寺院中的一间僧房中去读书。在寺庙读书期间,他将自己关在屋内,足不出户,手不释卷,读书通宵达旦。

由于家贫,生活得也十分艰苦。每天晚上,他用糙米煮好一盆稀饭,等第二天早晨凝成冻后,用刀划成四块,早上吃二块,晚上再吃二块,没有菜,就切一些腌菜下饭。生活如此艰苦,但他毫无怨言,专心于自己的读书学习。

后来,范仲淹的一个同学看到范仲淹的生活如此艰苦仍好学不辍,就回家告诉了父亲。同学的父亲听说后,被范仲淹刻苦学习的精神所感动,也深深同情范仲淹的贫穷处境,于是吩咐家人做了一些鱼肉等好吃的东西,叫儿子带给了范仲淹。

那个同学将做好的鱼肉送给范仲淹,说:“这是我父亲叫我送给你的,赶快趁热吃吧!”

范仲淹回答说:“不!我怎么能够接受你的东西呢?还是带回去吧!” 那个同学以为范仲淹不好意思接受而推辞,连忙放下东西,就回家去了。

过了几天,那个同学又来到范仲淹的住所,发现上次给他送的好吃的东西丝毫未动,已经变坏了。就责备范仲淹说:“看,叫你吃你不吃,东西都变坏了,你为什么不吃呢?”

范仲淹回答说:“并不是我不想吃,只是我已经过惯了艰苦的生活,如果吃了这些美味佳肴,以后再过这种艰苦的生活就不习惯了,所以我就没有吃。感谢你父亲的一片好意。”

那个同学回家,将范仲淹的话如实告诉了他父亲。他父亲夸奖说:“真是一个有志气的孩子,日后必定大有作为呀!”

范仲淹正是凭着“断齑画粥”这股苦读的劲头,最后终于成了我国历史上著名的文学家、政治家。

朱:接下来让我们了解一下毛泽东吧!

吴:毛泽东,中国革命家、战略家、理论家和诗人,中国共产党、中国人民解放军和中华人民共和国的主要缔造者和领袖,毛泽东思想的主要创立者。字润之(原作咏芝,后改润芝),笔名子任。1893年出生于湖南省长沙府湘潭县韶山冲,1976年逝世于北京。从1949年到1976年,毛泽东是中华人民共和国的最高领导人。他对马克思列宁主义的发展、军事理论的贡献以及对共产党的理论贡献是毛泽东思想最重要的组成部分。毛泽东被视为现代世界历史中最重要的人物之一,《时代》杂志将他评为20世纪最具影响100人之一。 吴:你了解那些名人,把他(她)的资料来读一读。

姜:你们课外收集了那些有关名人的名言? 吴:请大家来读下面几句名言。

改造自己,总比禁止别人来得难。 —— 鲁 迅 读书要眼到、口到、心到、手到、脑到--鲁迅 别让你的舌头抢先于你的思考。 --- 德谟克里特 朱:你对这几句名言是怎么理解的?

姜:接下来我们来一次互动吧,从第一组开始每个人都要报一个名人的名字,如果报不出来了请自觉站起来,下个同学帮他(她)报。 朱:看来站着的同学对名人还不够了解! 吴:大屏幕上也有几个名人的名字请大家一起来读一读! 齐:林则徐岳飞亚里士多德 爱因斯坦 林肯 华盛顿 拿破轮 孔子 毛泽东 邓小平达芬奇哥白尼布鲁诺

朱:每个名人都是伟大的。同学们最敬佩的名人是谁呢?为什么敬佩? 吴:有这么一个人,他把自己有限的生命投入到无限为人民服务中去,不求回报,默默奉献。他曾说过一句话:人的生命是无限的,可是为人民服务是无限的,我要把有限的生命投入到无限为人民服务中去。你们知道他是谁吗?

朱:对了,他是雷锋姜:雷锋是我们每个人心中的好榜样。他做的好事数不胜数,后人为其创作了很多歌曲。今天我们就一起来唱一唱《学习雷锋好榜样》 齐:今天我们班队会到此结束,谢谢大家!(鞠躬)
