——美国加利福尼亚州前州长阿诺德·施瓦辛格在清华大学的演讲
让我告诉你们，我年轻的朋友们，坚持你们的梦想。无论如何，坚持你们的梦想。不要放弃，即便遭遇打击和挫折。
很高兴来到这所大学。这真是一个特别的地方。我刚才到处看了一下，这是一个很棒、很棒的地方。祝贺你们能到这么好的大学学习。
上一次我来中国是五年前，当时是来宣传我的电影。他们在这里举办了一个电影节，名叫“阿诺德·施瓦辛格电影节”。我记得他们在一周时间内放映了我所有的电影——要知道，这是很难得的——他们还通过电视台播放了这些影片。但是我们当时来这里还有另一项任务，就是宣传特殊奥林匹克运动会，它专为帮助智障人士而设立。所以上一次我来是有两个目的。
但是这一次我的身份是加利福尼亚州州长，代表加利福尼亚人民。我们来了一个贸易代表团，看看怎样才能扩大与贵国的商业合作，并且相互帮助，因为加利福尼亚是一个飞速发展的州，中国是一个飞速发展的国家，我们在很多方面都能相互合作。
但是，我不想错过今天来这里与年轻人交谈的机会。其实，你们是中国最优秀的青年。所以能来到清华大学是我的荣幸，我很荣幸能受到邀请。
我阅读了一些关于清华历史的资料，了解到其实这所学校最初是为了培养学生去美国的大学深造而设立。我还知道，自从“9·11”事件以来，去美国大学留学的难度越来越高，因为现在你们需要填写一大堆资料，要得到签证，这非常复杂，你们必须等待比以前长得多的时间才能成行。但是听我说，情况已经有所好转。我听说限制已经有所缓和，得到签证的难度降低了。我年轻的中国朋友，我想告诉你们，即便你们未曾受到任何美国人的邀请，现在我就以私人身份邀请你们。我想热情邀请你们所有人前去美国，特别是去加利福尼亚，因为那是时尚之都。加利福尼亚是最好的地方。
请前去访问，我们会欢迎你们。我邀请你们所有人去旅游，去见见美国人民，去我们的大学深造，希望有一天你们会去那里做生意，或者可能是定居。不论你是什么目标，我们都永远欢迎。毕竟，我们不要忘记，美国是充满机遇的国度。不论是对于我这样的奥地利人，还是中国人，都是如此。记住这一点。
据我所知，本世纪以来，中国也在不断孕育着机会，日新月异。你们是这所伟大的学校的学生，也是崛起的中国的公民，我相信你们在中国也会拥有美好的未来。
今天，我想与你们聊聊梦想，对于你们未来的梦想，对于这个国家梦想。我想与你们聊聊梦想，因为我似乎是一个梦想专家，我实现了自己的许多梦想。所以让我向你们讲述我的故事，讲述我如何开始我的职业生涯。我认为这个故事与你们，也与中国有些许关联。
一开始我是个举重运动员。我一直喜欢举重和健美。当我第一次抓起杠铃，稳稳握住，并高举过头顶，我就一直享受这份愉悦，我知道这就是我要做的事情；我喜爱举重，这将是我要做的事情。我要从事举重和健美运动。
我记得自己的第一次真正的训练。我老家在澳大利亚，离我们村庄八英里远的地方有一座体育馆，我骑车过去。在那里训练了半个小时，因为他们说半小时后你要停下来休息，否则身体会酸痛。但是半小时后我看着自己的身体，什么事也没有。我说：“我还是再练半小时吧。”所以我举了更多。我的力量没有增强，我没有发现肌肉隆起，或者类似的事情。于是我又练了半小时，之后又是半小时，再之后又是半小时，共计两个半小时。
两个半小时之后，我离开了体育馆，骑车回家。虽然他们告诉我不应该练那么久，否则身体会酸痛。骑了一英里之后，我感觉身体发麻，再也握不住自行车把手，摔了下来掉进路边的沟里。爬起来后我试图再骑。骑了几码之后我又摔下了车。我又试了三四次，但就是没法骑车，因为我的身体已经麻木了，我的腿像面条一样打颤。
第二天早晨起床后，我浑身酸痛，甚至没法举起手臂梳头。我不得不让我妈妈帮我梳头，你们知道那有多么尴尬。但你们知道吗？我学到了非常重要的一课，那就是痛苦意味着进步。痛苦就是进步。每一次训练之后我的肌肉都酸痛不已，但我知道那是它们在生长，变得更加强壮。
我认为这是现实生活的宝贵经验。在坚持两三年艰苦训练之后，我的形体和力量都发生了改变。我从中学到了一些东西，那就是：既然我可以改变我的形体，既然我可以改变我身体的力量，那么我也可以改变其它任何事情。我可以改变我的习惯，我可以改变我的智力，我可以改变我的态度、我的思想、我的未来和我的人生。这正是我已经做过的事情。我觉得这个经验也适用于其他人，适用于各个国家。你们可以改变，中国可以改变，世界上每一个人都可以改变。
当然，我必须告诉你们，我的父母起初完全无法理解我的梦想。他们总是困惑，他们说：“你在干什么？你打算什么时候找一份工作，一份真正的工作？你打算什么时候挣钱？”我听到的都是这样的问题。他们还说：“我希望我们没有养一个乞丐，一个不会挣钱，只想住在体育馆里成天想着自己形体的人。”好吧，我忍受了所有这些消极的想法。这些想法和问题越消极，我就变得越积极，我的内心就变得越强大。
之所以说这些是因为我觉得你们中有一部分人的家人可能会有同样的想法。他们可能不相信你们的梦想。但是让我告诉你们，我年轻的朋友们，坚持你们的梦想。无论如何，坚持你们的梦想。不要放弃，即便遭遇打击和挫折。坚持你们的梦想。
我记得我第一次去美国，去参加世界健美锦标赛，我输了。我只得了第二名，我崩溃了。我感觉像是个失败者，彻头彻尾的失败者。而且，我还哭了，因为我觉得我辜负了我的朋友们，还有我自己。但是第二天，我就重整旗鼓，对自己说：“我要吸取这个教训。我要留在美国。我不回欧洲了。我要留在美国，和那些冠军一起训练，以美国的方式训练。我要吃美国的食物，使用美国的运动器械和原理。”一年以后，在美国，我成为了世界健美冠军。所以，我觉得这是很重要的一课。
从那时起，我一步一个脚印。我的职业生涯开始腾飞，所有我想做的事都如愿以偿。先是成为了世界健美冠军，后来变成了电影明星，出演的都是伟大的影片，《蛮王柯南》系列和《终结者》系列，还有其他的。之后，我成为了加利福尼亚州的州长。这一切的发生都是因为我的梦想，即使其他人告诉我那些梦想不切实际，太过疯狂，我依然坚持不懈。
不论我做什么，即便是健身，总有人会说我不可能成功。后来拍电影，在好莱坞他们也说我不会成功。他们说：“你不可能成功的。你有德国口音，在好莱坞从来没有带德国口音的人成功过。是的，你或许能演一些纳粹之类的角色，但是因为你有口音，你不可能成为一线巨星。还有你的身体，你的肌肉过于发达了。20年前他们拍过赫拉克勒斯的电影，但是现在过时了。现在是伍迪·艾伦的时代。伍迪·艾伦很红，他的身材很红。”都是一些这样的信息。“还有阿尔·帕西诺，瘦得皮包骨头，他也很红。但是你不行，太壮硕了。别想了，你不会成功的。回去健身吧。”
好了，其他的就不提了。《终结者3》上映后，我成了好莱坞片酬最高的影星。听我说，故事还没完。即使当我竞选州长时，人们也说：“阿诺德，你不会成功的。你不会成为加利福尼亚州州长的。你对政府了解多少呢？”好吧，事实是，我对于政府的了解和其他加州人民一样，那就是政府遥不可及，高高在上，这亟待改变。所以我没有在乎那些人的话。我继续竞选，我坚持自己的梦想，其他的也不提了。我成功当选。
那些梦想一直是我前行的动力。健美给了我信心，电影给了我金钱，为人民服务和州长的工作给了我比实现自我更大的目标。以上就是我的梦想，我的早年生活，还有我的梦想如何帮助我取得成功。
当然，人不应吝啬梦想。所以我不仅有自己的梦想，也有对你们，对中国的梦想。让我慢慢道来。中国的经济已经变成了人类进步的引擎，使数百万人摆脱了贫困。对于中国和全世界而言，这是道德和经济的双重成功。我经常读到新闻，说在接下来的五十年，中国可能会成为世界最大的经济体。我认为这很好。当然，这并不意味着美国会变得贫穷；只是意味着中国会变得富裕，美国也会从中国的发展中获益，一如二战后美国从西欧的崛起中获益。
我可以告诉你们，在过去的两百年里，美国的能量和力量源泉是什么，或许中国可以从中学到一些东西。美国信奉个人能力，以及个人所能取得的成就，不论其肤色、宗教、种族背景如何。
让我向你们介绍另一个人，肯·贝林，他是一个加州的商人，身价百万。他也找到了自己的热情所在，向全世界（包括中国）的贫困残疾人赠送轮椅。他说他遇见过一些人，多年来受困于没有窗子的房间，成天躺在床上盯着天花板，从来没有见过外面的世界，除非有人愿意背起他们，带他们出去。他说难怪这么多残疾人都梦想变成一只小鸟。贝林先生说我们很多人认为轮椅是一种禁锢，但是对于数百万残疾人而言，它不是禁锢，而是自由，行动和上学的自由，投票的自由，求职的自由，展望未来的自由。他已经为全世界40万人带去了自由和轮椅。这就是个人的力量。
我的岳母，尤妮斯·肯尼迪·施莱佛——我总是喜欢提到她，因为她的善良——例如，她创办了特殊奥林匹克运动会，专为智障人士设立。当然，设立之初专家们告诉她：“不行，你不能把智障人士带出精神病院去参加体育活动。他们会在游泳池里溺水，他们会自相残杀，互相伤害。不要这样做。”但是尤妮斯·肯尼迪·施莱佛有梦想，有激情。今天全世界有几百万人在特殊奥林匹克运动会上比拼，包括中国。这就是我五年前来这里的原因。五年前，一共有50万人参加了特殊奥林匹克运动会。50万人得到了一个参加体育比赛的机会，得到了医疗保健的机会，得到了被平等对待的机会，还有尊敬和宽容。这就是个人的力量。尤妮斯·肯尼迪·施莱佛是又一个例子。
我想告诉你们的是你们每一个人都具有这种力量。所以，当你们的学识不断丰富，当你们变得更聪明，更富有，请想一想，有数百万人需要你们的帮助。现在，你们可以问自己一个问题，我能做什么？让我告诉你们。即便你们可能没有钱，甚至一无所有，你们依然可以走出去，教一个孩子学会阅读。你们可以走出去帮助残疾人，抱起他们，走到户外，让他们看看外面的世界。你们可以做太多不同的事情。你们可以带智障人士去看一场足球赛。个人可以通过做各种各样的事，来伸出援手，帮助他人。
设想一下，如果全中国13亿人民都能放飞各自的梦想，将会取得多大的成就。设想一下美妙的前景。你们每一个人都有改变的力量，都有梦想的力量，这些力量是无穷的。你们朝气蓬勃，你们学识丰富，你们是中国培养的精英。我年轻的朋友们，我相信你们的梦想。我相信你们可以梦想成真，我相信你们可以做出改变，巨大的改变。你们要做的只是为之奉献，你们要做的就是把梦想付诸行动并全心投入，对自己说：“让我们放手去做。”
第二篇：施瓦辛格在清华大学的演讲范文
施瓦辛格在清华大学的演讲
Well, thank you very much, President.First of all, I want to thank President Gu for having me here, and I want to thank Mr.Qizhi for your kind introduction.Thank you very much.It is wonderful to be here at this university.What a special place.I just looked around a little bit here, it’s a gorgeous, gorgeous place.I want to congratulate you for going to this magnificent university here.Now, the last time I was here in China was five years ago, and then I was promoting my movies.They had a movie festival here, the Arnold Schwarzenegger Movie Festival.I remember they showed all my movies for a week—which was a rarity, may I remind you—and they also showed the movies on television.But we also were here to promote Special Olympics, which is an organization that helps people with mental disabilities, so I was here for both reasons.But this time I’m here as the governor of the great state of California.I’m here representing the people of California, and we’re here on a trade mission to see how we can do more business with China and to help each other, because both California is a very fast growing state, and China is a very fast growing country, and there are a lot of things that we can do for one another.But I didn’t want to miss the opportunity to come here today and to talk with the young people;as a matter of fact, to the brightest young people of China.And this is why it is so great to be here at the Tsinghua University, and I’m honored that I was invited here.Now, I read a little bit about the history of Tsinghua, and I learned that actually this school originally prepared students to attend universities in America.Now, I also know that since the attack on our World Trade Centers it has become more and more difficult to go to the universities in America because you need to fill out all kinds of paperwork now and you have to get visas, and it’s very complicated, and you have to wait a much longer period of time to go over there.But let me tell you, things are improving already.I’ve heard that it’s easing up, the restrictions, and it’s easier to get a visa.My young Chinese friends, I want to tell you that in case no one from America has ever invited you, let me do this right now personally.I want to warmly invite all of you here to come to the United States, and especially to come to California, because that’s the happening place.California is the best place.Please come and visit us, we will welcome you.I invite you all to come there and to travel, to meet the American people, and to come there and study in our universities, and some day hopefully you will come and do business over there, or maybe you’ll want to move over there.Whatever your goal is, you’re always welcome.America, after all, let’s not forget, is the land of opportunity.And it’s not only the land of opportunity for Austrians like me, but for Chinese people as well.Remember that.I know that beginning with this century, China is also becoming a land of opportunity.It’s a fast growing place, and as the students of this great university and the citizens of a rising China, I think that you have a great future also here in this country.And today I want to talk to you a little bit about the dreams, about the dreams of your future, and dreams for this country.I want to talk to you a little bit about dreams, because it seems to me that I’m somewhat of an expert in dreams, because I had a lot of my dreams become a reality.So let me just briefly tell you my story, and tell you a little bit about how I started with my career.I think that this story kind of relates a little bit also to you, and also to China.I started way back as a weightlifter.I always liked the idea of lifting weights and being a bodybuilder.From the first moment when I gripped a barbell and held it around the bar and lifted the steel up over my head, I felt this exhilaration, and I knew then that this is something that I’m going to do;that I was in love with that, and this is going to be something that I’m going to do.I’m going to pursue the sport of weightlifting and bodybuilding.Now, I remember the first real workout that I had.Eight miles away from my home village in Austria there was a gymnasium, and I rode to that gymnasium with a bicycle.And there I trained for half an hour, because they said that after half an hour you should stop because otherwise your body will get really sore.But after half an hour I looked at my body, and nothing had happened.So I said, “I’d better work out for another half hour.” So I lifted some more.My strength didn’t improve, I didn’t see the muscles pop out or anything like that, so I trained for another half an hour.And then after another half hour I trained another half hour, and all together I trained two and a half hours.Well, let me tell you something.After two and a half hours—even though they told me that I shouldn’t train that much or I would get really sore—I left the gymnasium, I rode my bicycle home.And after the first mile I got numb, and I couldn’t feel anymore the handle of the bicycle, and I fell off the bike and I fell into the ditch on the side of the road.So I got up again and I tried it again.Another few yards, I fell off the bicycle again.And I tried it three, four more times, and I just couldn’t ride my bicycle because my body was so numb and my legs felt like noodles.Well, let me tell you something.The next morning when I got up, my body was so sore that I couldn’t even lift my arms to comb my hair.I had to have my mother comb my hair, and you know how embarrassing that is.But you know something? I learned a very important lesson, that pain means progress.Pain is progress.Each time my muscles were sore from a workout I knew that they were growing and they were getting stronger.I think there is a real life lesson in that.After two or three years of discipline and determination and working out hard, I actually changed my body, and I changed my strength.And that told me something;that if I could change my body that much, and if I could change the strength of my body that much, then I could also change anything else.I could change my habits, I could change my intelligence, I could change my attitude, my mind, my future, my life.And this is exactly what I have done.I think that that lesson applies to people, and it also applies to countries.You can change, China can change, everyone in the world can change.My parents, of course, I have to tell you, didn’t understand my dreams at all.They were always wondering, they said, “What is he doing? When are you going to get a job, a real job? When are you going to make money?” And all of those questions I got.And they said, “I hope we didn’t raise a bum, someone that doesn’t make money and just wants to live in a gymnasium and think about their bodies.” Well, I endured all of this negative thinking, and the more negative the thinking got, and the more negative the questions got, the stronger and the more positive I became, the stronger I became inside.So of course some of your families maybe think the same way, and this is why I’m mentioning that.Some of your families maybe don’t believe in your dreams.But let me tell you something, my young friends.Keep your dreams.No matter what, keep your dreams.Don’t give up on them, even when you are temporarily defeated or denied.Keep your dreams.I remember the first time I went to the United States and I was competing in a competition, the World Championships in Bodybuilding.I lost.I came in second, and I was devastated.I was crushed.I felt like a loser, a major loser, let me tell you.I cried, as a matter of fact, because I felt like I disappointed my friends and I disappointed myself.But the next day I got my act together, I shifted gears, and I said, “I’m going to learn from that lesson.I’m going to stay here in America.I’m not going to go back to Europe.I’m going to stay in America and I’m going to train with the American champions, I’m going to train the American way.I’m going to eat the American food, I’m going to train with the American machines and the principles.And a year later, in America, I became the World Champion in Bodybuilding.So I think this is a very, very important lesson.And from then on, I continued.My career took off, and everything that I wanted to do I accomplished.First it was to become a champion in bodybuilding.Later on I became a movie star, to do all the great movies, the Conan movies and the Terminator movies and all this.Then I became the governor of the great state of California, of the sixth largest economy in the world.All of this happened because of my dreams, even though other people told me that those dreams were bogus and they were crazy, but I held onto my dreams.And people would always say, no matter what, even in bodybuilding they said I would never make it.And later on in the movies, in Hollywood they said I would not make it.They said, ”You will never make it.You have a German accent.No one in Hollywood has ever made it with a German accent.Yeah, maybe you can play some Nazi roles or something like that, but you cannot become a leading star with an accent.Plus your body, you’re overdeveloped, you have all these muscles.They did Hercules movies 20 years ago, that’s outdated.Now it’s Woody Allen.Woody Allen is in, his body is in.“ And those were the messages.”And Al Pacino, the skinny guy, he is in.But not your body, it’s too big.And your name, Schwarzenegger, it will never fit on a movie poster.Forget it.Forget it, you will never make it.Go back to bodybuilding.“ Well, the rest is history.After Terminator 3, I became the highest paid movie star in Hollywood.And let me tell you something, it continued on.Even when I ran for governor people said, ”Arnold, you will never make it.You will never become governor of California.What do you know about government?“ Well, the fact is, I knew exactly as much about government as the rest of the people knew in California, which is that government is out of touch, and it’s out of sync with the people, and it needed a shakeup.So I didn’t listen to all those people that said I would never make it.I continued campaigning, I listened to my dreams, and the rest also is history.I became governor.So always it just carried me on, those dreams.So bodybuilding gave me the confidence, movies gave me the money, and pubic service and being a governor gave me a purpose larger than myself.And that is the brief story of my dreams and a brief story of my early life, and how my dreams made me successful.A person, of course, should not be stingy with their dreams.So I, of course, don’t just think and dream about myself, but I also have dreams for you, and dreams for China.So let me just talk a little bit about that.China’s economy has become an engine of human progress, lifting millions of people out of poverty.This is a moral and economic good for China and for the rest of the world.I often read that China’s economy is likely to become the largest in the world over the next 50 years, and I think this is terrific.This does not mean, of course, that America will get poorer;it just means that China will get richer, and the United States will benefit from China’s progress as much as the U.S.benefited from the rise of Western Europe after World War II.Some in my country fear that China’s research and development will overtake America’s, but I believe that America and the world will benefit from China’s scientific and technological advances.I think we will benefit from that.If China makes advances in stem cell research, the rest of the world will benefit from that.If China discovers an energy breakthrough, this is good for the rest of the world, such as the benefit of a free market.Some fear that China will buy up American companies, but that fear also existed in the ‘80s, when America feared that Japan was going to buy up American companies.So what? It was just good, and to the benefit of America.We should welcome China’s investment in American companies, just as we welcome the billions of dollars that China has invested in U.S.treasury bonds.This shows that China has faith in America, and American investment in China shows that we have faith in you.So I believe that China and U.S.economic relations will become even closer in the years ahead.Certainly I realize that we do not agree on everything, but who does? Certainly I realize that China has major hurdles to overcome, but it is not for me to say how China should overcome those hurdles and achieve its dreams.But I can tell you, however, what has given America such energy and strength over the last 200 years, and perhaps there are some insights in this for China.America is a nation that believes in the power of the individual, and what the individual can accomplish, no matter the color, no matter the religion, no matter the ethnic background of the individual.Recently, as you probably have read, Rosa Parks, a former seamstress married to a barber, married to a hairdresser, died, and she lay in honor in the Rotunda of the U.S.Capitol in Washington.People from around America came to say farewell to her and to thank her for changing our history and for changing our society.Now, what did this 92 year-old black woman do that deserved such great honor? What did she do? Well, in 1955, the days of racial segregation, she had refused to give up her seat on the bus to a white man.She had refused.Her simple refusal to move to the back of the bus put into motion events that led to my country’s great civil rights movement.The small protest of a woman that maybe weighed less than 100 lbs.brought down a racist system.As you can see, the individual can make a difference.Let me tell you about another individual, Ken Behring, a millionaire California businessman who found his passion in giving wheelchairs to poor and physically disabled people all around the globe, including China.He says that he has met people who have spent years in rooms with no window, just lying there and staring up at the ceiling, never seeing the outside world unless someone was willing to pick up that person and take them outside to show them the world.He says that it’s no wonder so many of those physically disabled people dream about being a bird.Mr.Behring says that most of us think that a wheelchair would be a confinement, but to millions of people it is not a confinement, it is freedom, freedom to move and to go to school, freedom to vote, freedom to get a job, and freedom for hope for the future.He has given freedom and wheelchairs to 400,000 people around the world.The individual can make a difference.My mother-in-law, Eunice Kennedy Shriver—I always like to mention her, because it gets me on the good side of her—she, for instance, started an organization called Special Olympics.She stared Special Olympics which is for people with mental disabilities.And of course when she started that organization she was told by the experts, ”Don’t do it.You cannot take people with mental disabilities out of mental institutions and have them participate in sports events.They will drown in the swimming pools.They will kill each other out there, they will hurt each other.Don’t do it.“ But Eunice Kennedy Shriver had a dream and a passion, and today millions of people compete in Special Olympics around the world, including right here in China.This is why I was here five years ago.Five years ago you had 50,000 participants in the Special Olympics.Today, five years later, you have 500,000 participants in Special Olympics.500,000 people are getting a chance to participate in sports programs, getting a chance to have health care, have a chance to be treated equally, with respect and with tolerance.So Eunice Kennedy Shriver exemplifies that the individual can make a difference.And I think what I’m trying to say to you is that each and every one of you can make a difference.So as you study and as you become smarter, and as you become richer, think about that, that there are millions of people that need your help.Now, you maybe ask yourself the question, what can I do? Well, let me tell you.Even though you maybe have no money or anything, you can go out and help a child that has not yet learned yet how to read.You maybe can go out and help a person that is physically handicapped, to lift them up and to take them outside so they can see the world.There are so many different things that you can do.You maybe can take a person that is mentally disabled, to take them to a soccer game.There are all kinds of things that the individual can do to reach out and to help.Imagine what could be accomplished if the dreams of China’s 1.3 billion individuals could be unleashed.Imagine what could happen.Each of you here has the power of the individual within you, you have the power of your dreams within you, and these are tremendous powers.You’re young, you’re educated, and you are the very best China has to offer.My young Chinese friends, I believe in your dreams.I believe that you can achieve them, and I believe you can make a difference, a big difference.All you have to do is just make the commitment.All you have to do is create the action and commit, and say, ”Let’s do it." Go out and do it.I’m asking you.Do it for yourself, do it for China, and do it for the good of the world.Thank you very much for listening.Thank you.

left the gymnasium, I rode my bicycle home.And after the first mile I got numb, and I couldn’t feel anymore the handle of the bicycle, and I fell off the bike and I fell into the ditch on the side of the road.So I got up again and I tried it again.Another few yards, I fell off the bicycle again.And I tried it three, four more times, and I just couldn’t ride my bicycle because my body was so numb and my legs felt like noodles.Well, let me tell you something.The next morning when I got up, my body was so sore that I couldn’t even lift my arms to comb my hair.I had to have my mother comb my hair, and you know how embarrassing that is.But you know something? I learned a very important lesson, that pain means progress.Pain is progress.Each time my muscles were sore from a workout I knew that they were growing and they were getting stronger.I think there is a real life lesson in that.After two or three years of discipline and determination and working out hard, I actually changed my body, and I changed my strength.And that told me something;that if I could change my body that much, and if I could change the strength of my body that much, then I could also change anything else.I could change my habits, I could change my intelligence, I could change my attitude, my mind, my future, my life.And this is exactly what I have done.I think that that lesson applies to people, and it also applies to countries.You can change, China can change, everyone in the world can change.My parents, of course, I have to tell you, didn’t understand my dreams at all.They were always wondering, they said, “What is he doing? When are you going to get a job, a real job? When are you going to make money?” And all of those questions I got.And they said, “I hope we didn’t raise a bum, someone that doesn’t make money and just wants to live in a gymnasium and think about their bodies.” Well, I endured all of this negative thinking, and the more negative the thinking got, and the more negative the questions got, the stronger and the more positive I became, the stronger I became inside.So of course some of your families maybe think the same way, and this is why I’m mentioning that.Some of your families maybe don’t believe in your dreams.But let me tell you something, my young friends.Keep your dreams.No matter what, keep your dreams.Don’t give up on them, even when you are temporarily defeated or denied.Keep your dreams.I remember the first time I went to the United States and I was competing in a competition, the World Championships in Bodybuilding.I lost.I came in second, and I was devastated.I was crushed.I felt like a loser, a major loser, let me tell you.I cried, as a matter of fact, because I felt like I disappointed my friends and I disappointed myself.But the next day I got my act together, I shifted gears, and I said, “I’m going to learn from that lesson.I’m going to stay here in America.I’m not going to go back to Europe.I’m going to stay in America and I’m going to train with the American champions, I’m going to train the American way.I’m going to eat the American food, I’m going to train with the American machines and the principles.And a year later, in America, I became the World Champion in Bodybuilding.So I think this is a very, very important lesson.And from then on, I continued.My career took off, and everything that I wanted to do I accomplished.First it was to become a champion in bodybuilding.Later on I became a movie star, to do all the great movies, the Conan movies and the Terminator movies and all this.Then I became the governor of the great state of California, of the sixth largest economy in the world.All of this happened because of my dreams, even though other people told me that those dreams were bogus and they were crazy, but I held onto my dreams.And people would always say, no matter what, even in bodybuilding they said I would never make it.And later on in the movies, in Hollywood they said I would not make it.They said, ”You will never make it.You have a German accent.No one in Hollywood has ever made it with a German accent.Yeah, maybe you can play some Nazi roles or something like that, but you cannot become a leading star with an accent.Plus your body, you’re overdeveloped, you have all these muscles.They did Hercules movies 20 years ago, that’s outdated.Now it’s Woody Allen.Woody Allen is in, his body is in.“ And those were the messages.”And Al Pacino, the skinny guy, he is in.But not your body, it’s too big.And your name, Schwarzenegger, it will never fit on a movie poster.Forget it.Forget it, you will never make it.Go back to bodybuilding.“
Well, the rest is history.After Terminator 3, I became the highest paid movie star in Hollywood.And let me tell you something, it continued on.Even when I ran for governor people said, ”Arnold, you will never make it.You will never become governor of California.What do you know about government?“ Well, the fact is, I knew exactly as much about government as the rest of the people knew in California, which is that government is out of touch, and it’s out of sync with the people, and it needed a shakeup.So I didn’t listen to all those people that said I would never make it.I continued campaigning, I listened to my dreams, and the rest also is history.I became governor.So always it just carried me on, those dreams.So bodybuilding gave me the confidence, movies gave me the money, and pubic service and being a governor gave me a purpose larger than myself.And that is the brief story of my dreams and a brief story of my early life, and how my dreams made me successful.A person, of course, should not be stingy with their dreams.So I, of course, don’t just think and dream about myself, but I also have dreams for you, and dreams for China.So let me just talk a little bit about that.China’s economy has become an engine of human progress, lifting millions of people out of poverty.This is a moral and economic good for China and for the rest of the world.I often read that China’s economy is likely to become the largest in the world over the next 50 years, and I think this is terrific.This does not mean, of course, that America will get poorer;it just means that China will get richer, and the United States will benefit from China’s progress as much as the U.S.benefited from the rise of Western Europe after World War II.Some in my country fear that China’s research and development will overtake America’s, but I believe that America and the world will benefit from China’s scientific and technological advances.I think we will benefit from that.If China makes advances in stem cell research, the rest of the world will benefit from that.If China discovers an energy breakthrough, this is good for the rest of the world, such as the benefit of a free market.Some fear that China will buy up American companies, but that fear also existed in the ‘80s, when America feared that Japan was going to buy up American companies.So what? It was just good, and to the benefit of America.We should welcome China’s investment in American companies, just as we welcome the billions of dollars that China has invested in U.S.treasury bonds.This shows that China has faith in America, and American investment in China shows that we have faith in you.So I believe that China and U.S.economic relations will become even closer in the years ahead.Certainly I realize that we do not agree on everything, but who does? Certainly I realize that China has major hurdles to overcome, but it is not for me to say how China should overcome those hurdles and achieve its dreams.But I can tell you, however, what has given America such energy and strength over the last 200 years, and perhaps there are some insights in this for China.America is a nation that believes in the power of the individual, and what the individual can accomplish, no matter the color, no matter the religion, no matter the ethnic background of the individual.Recently, as you probably have read, Rosa Parks, a former seamstress married to a barber, married to a hairdresser, died, and she lay in honor in the Rotunda of the U.S.Capitol in Washington.People from around America came to say farewell to her and to thank her for changing our history and for changing our society.Now, what did this 92 year-old black woman do that deserved such great honor? What did she do? Well, in 1955, the days of racial segregation, she had refused to give up her seat on the bus to a white man.She had refused.Her simple refusal to move to the back of the bus put into motion events that led to my country’s great civil rights movement.The small protest of a woman that maybe weighed less than 100 lbs.brought down a racist system.As you can see, the individual can make a difference.Let me tell you about another individual, Ken Behring, a millionaire California businessman who found his passion in giving wheelchairs to poor and physically disabled people all around the globe, including China.He says that he has met people who have spent years in rooms with no window, just lying there and staring up at the ceiling, never seeing the outside world unless someone was willing to pick up that person and take them outside to show them the world.He says that it’s no wonder so many of those physically disabled people dream about being a bird.Mr.Behring says that most of us think that a wheelchair would be a confinement, but to millions of people it is not a confinement, it is freedom, freedom to move and to go to school, freedom to vote, freedom to get a job, and freedom for hope for the future.He has given freedom and wheelchairs to 400,000 people around the world.The individual can make a difference.My mother-in-law, Eunice Kennedy Shriver—I always like to mention her, because it gets me on the good side of her—she, for instance, started an organization called Special Olympics.She stared Special Olympics which is for people with mental disabilities.And of course when she started that organization she was told by the experts, ”Don’t do it.You cannot take people with mental disabilities out of mental institutions and have them participate in sports events.They will drown in the swimming pools.They will kill each other out there, they will hurt each other.Don’t do it.“ But Eunice Kennedy Shriver had a dream and a passion, and today millions of people compete in Special Olympics around the world, including right here in China.This is why I was here five years ago.Five years ago you had 50,000 participants in the Special Olympics.Today, five years later, you have 500,000 participants in Special Olympics.500,000 people are getting a chance to participate in sports programs, getting a chance to have health care, have a chance to be treated equally, with respect and with tolerance.So Eunice Kennedy Shriver exemplifies that the individual can make a difference.And I think what I’m trying to say to you is that each and every one of you can make a difference.So as you study and as you become smarter, and as you become richer, think about that, that there are millions of people that need your help.Now, you maybe ask yourself the question, what can I do? Well, let me tell you.Even though you maybe have no money or anything, you can go out and help a child that has not yet learned yet how to read.You maybe can go out and help a person that is physically handicapped, to lift them up and to take them outside so they can see the world.There are so many different things that you can do.You maybe can take a person that is mentally disabled, to take them to a soccer game.There are all kinds of things that the individual can do to reach out and to help.Imagine what could be accomplished if the dreams of China’s 1.3 billion individuals could be unleashed.Imagine what could happen.Each of you here has the power of the individual within you, you have the power of your dreams within you, and these are tremendous powers.You’re young, you’re educated, and you are the very best China has to offer.My young Chinese friends, I believe in your dreams.I believe that you can achieve them, and I believe you can make a difference, a big difference.All you have to do is just make the commitment.All you have to do is create the action and commit, and say, ”Let’s do it." Go out and do it.I’m asking you.Do it for yourself, do it for China, and do it for the good of the world.Thank you very much for listening.Thank you.很高兴来到这所大学。这真是一个特别的地方。我刚才到处看了一下，这是一个很棒、很棒的地方。祝贺你们能到这么好的大学学习。
上一次我来中国是五年前，当时是来宣传我的电影。他们在这里举办了一个电影节，名叫“阿诺德·施瓦辛格电影节”。我记得他们在一周时间内放映了我所有的电影——要知道，这是很难得的——他们还通过电视台播放了这些影片。但是我们当时来这里还有另一项任务，就是宣传特殊奥林匹克运动会，它专为帮助智障人士而设立。所以上一次我来是有两个目的。
但是这一次我的身份是加利福尼亚州州长，代表加利福尼亚人民。我们来了一个贸易代表团，看看怎样才能扩大与贵国的商业合作，并且相互帮助，因为加利福尼亚是一个飞速发展的州，中国是一个飞速发展的国家，我们在很多方面都能相互合作。
但是，我不想错过今天来这里与年轻人交谈的机会。其实，你们是中国最优秀的青年。所以能来到清华大学是我的荣幸，我很荣幸能受到邀请。
我阅读了一些关于清华历史的资料，了解到其实这所学校最初是为了培养学生去美国的大学深造而设立。我还知道，自从“9·11”事件以来，去美国大学留学的难度越来越高，因为现在你们需要填写一大堆资料，要得到签证，这非常复杂，你们必须等待比以前长得多的时间才能成行。但是听我说，情况已经有所好转。我听说限制已经有所缓和，得到签证的难度降低了。我年轻的中国朋友，我想告诉你们，即便你们未曾受到任何美国人的邀请，现在我就以私人身份邀请你们。我想热情邀请你们所有人前去美国，特别是去加利福尼亚，因为那是时尚之都。加利福尼亚是最好的地方。
请前去访问，我们会欢迎你们。我邀请你们所有人去旅游，去见见美国人民，去我们的大学深造，希望有一天你们会去那里做生意，或者可能是定居。不论你是什么目标，我们都永远欢迎。毕竟，我们不要忘记，美国是充满机遇的国度。不论是对于我这样的奥地利人，还是中国人，都是如此。记住这一点。
据我所知，本世纪以来，中国也在不断孕育着机会，日新月异。你们是这所伟大的学校的学生，也是崛起的中国的公民，我相信你们在中国也会拥有美好的未来。
今天，我想与你们聊聊梦想，对于你们未来的梦想，对于这个国家梦想。我想与你们聊聊梦想，因为我似乎是一个梦想专家，我实现了自己的许多梦想。所以让我向你们讲述我的故事，讲述我如何开始我的职业生涯。我认为这个故事与你们，也与中国有些许关联。
一开始我是个举重运动员。我一直喜欢举重和健美。当我第一次抓起杠铃，稳稳握住，并高举过头顶，我就一直享受这份愉悦，我知道这就是我要做的事情；我喜爱举重，这将是我要做的事情。我要从事举重和健美运动。
我记得自己的第一次真正的训练。我老家在澳大利亚，离我们村庄八英里远的地方有一座体育馆，我骑车过去。在那里训练了半个小时，因为他们说半小时后你要停下来休息，否则身体会酸痛。但是半小时后我看着自己的身体，什么事也没有。我说：“我还是再练半小时吧。”所以我举了更多。我的力量没有增强，我没有发现肌肉隆起，或者类似的事情。于是我又练了半小时，之后又是半小时，再之后又是半小时，共计两个半小时。
两个半小时之后，我离开了体育馆，骑车回家。虽然他们告诉我不应该练那么久，否则身体会酸痛。骑了一英里之后，我感觉身体发麻，再也握不住自行车把手，摔了下来掉进路边的沟里。爬起来后我试图再骑。骑了几码之后我又摔下了车。我又试了三四次，但就是没法骑车，因为我的身体已经麻木了，我的腿像面条一样打颤。
第二天早晨起床后，我浑身酸痛，甚至没法举起手臂梳头。我不得不让我妈妈帮我梳头，你们知道那有多么尴尬。但你们知道吗？我学到了非常重要的一课，那就是痛苦意味着进步。痛苦就是进步。每一次训练之后我的肌肉都酸痛不已，但我知道那是它们在生长，变得更加强壮。
我认为这是现实生活的宝贵经验。在坚持两三年艰苦训练之后，我的形体和力量都发生了改变。我从中学到了一些东西，那就是：既然我可以改变我的形体，既然我可以改变我身体的力量，那么我也可以改变其它任何事情。我可以改变我的习惯，我可以改变我的智力，我可以改变我的态度、我的思想、我的未来和我的人生。这正是我已经做过的事情。我觉得这个经验也适用于其他人，适用于各个国家。你们可以改变，中国可以改变，世界上每一个人都可以改变。
当然，我必须告诉你们，我的父母起初完全无法理解我的梦想。他们总是困惑，他们说：“你在干什么？你打算什么时候找一份工作，一份真正的工作？你打算什么时候挣钱？”我听到的都是这样的问题。他们还说：“我希望我们没有养一个乞丐，一个不会挣钱，只想住在体育馆里成天想着自己形体的人。”好吧，我忍受了所有这些消极的想法。这些想法和问题越消极，我就变得越积极，我的内心就变得越强大。
之所以说这些是因为我觉得你们中有一部分人的家人可能会有同样的想法。他们可能不相信你们的梦想。但是让我告诉你们，我年轻的朋友们，坚持你们的梦想。无论如何，坚持你们的梦想。不要放弃，即便遭遇打击和挫折。坚持你们的梦想。
我记得我第一次去美国，去参加世界健美锦标赛，我输了。我只得了第二名，我崩溃了。我感觉像是个失败者，彻头彻尾的失败者。而且，我还哭了，因为我觉得我辜负了我的朋友们，还有我自己。但是第二天，我就重整旗鼓，对自己说：“我要吸取这个教训。我要留在美国。我不回欧洲了。我要留在美国，和那些冠军一起训练，以美国的方式训练。我要吃美国的食物，使用美国的运动器械和原理。”一年以后，在美国，我成为了世界健美冠军。所以，我觉得这是很重要的一课。
从那时起，我一步一个脚印。我的职业生涯开始腾飞，所有我想做的事都如愿以偿。先是成为了世界健美冠军，后来变成了电影明星，出演的都是伟大的影片，《蛮王柯南》系列和《终结者》系列，还有其他的。之后，我成为了加利福尼亚州的州长。这一切的发生都是因为我的梦想，即使其他人告诉我那些梦想不切实际，太过疯狂，我依然坚持不懈。
不论我做什么，即便是健身，总有人会说我不可能成功。后来拍电影，在好莱坞他们也说我不会成功。他们说：“你不可能成功的。你有德国口音，在好莱坞从来没有带德国口音的人成功过。是的，你或许能演一些纳粹之类的角色，但是因为你有口音，你不可能成为一线巨星。还有你的身体，你的肌肉过于发达了。20年前他们拍过赫拉克勒斯的电影，但是现在过时了。现在是伍迪·艾伦的时代。伍迪·艾伦很红，他的身材很红。”都是一些这样的信息。“还有阿尔·帕西诺，瘦得皮包骨头，他也很红。但是你不行，太壮硕了。别想了，你不会成功的。回去健身吧。”
好了，其他的就不提了。《终结者3》上映后，我成了好莱坞片酬最高的影星。听我说，故事还没完。即使当我竞选州长时，人们也说：“阿诺德，你不会成功的。你不会成为加利福尼亚州州长的。你对政府了解多少呢？”好吧，事实是，我对于政府的了解和其他加州人民一样，那就是政府遥不可及，高高在上，这亟待改变。所以我没有在乎那些人的话。我继续竞选，我坚持自己的梦想，其他的也不提了。我成功当选。
那些梦想一直是我前行的动力。健美给了我信心，电影给了我金钱，为人民服务和州长的工作给了我比实现自我更大的目标。以上就是我的梦想，我的早年生活，还有我的梦想如何帮助我取得成功。
当然，人不应吝啬梦想。所以我不仅有自己的梦想，也有对你们，对中国的梦想。让我慢慢道来。中国的经济已经变成了人类进步的引擎，使数百万人摆脱了贫困。对于中国和全世界而言，这是道德和经济的双重成功。我经常读到新闻，说在接下来的五十年，中国可能会成为世界最大的经济体。我认为这很好。当然，这并不意味着美国会变得贫穷；只是意味着中国会变得富裕，美国也会从中国的发展中获益，一如二战后美国从西欧的崛起中获益。
我可以告诉你们，在过去的两百年里，美国的能量和力量源泉是什么，或许中国可以从中学到一些东西。美国信奉个人能力，以及个人所能取得的成就，不论其肤色、宗教、种族背景如何。
让我向你们介绍另一个人，肯·贝林，他是一个加州的商人，身价百万。他也找到了自己的热情所在，向全世界（包括中国）的贫困残疾人赠送轮椅。他说他遇见过一些人，多年来受困于没有窗子的房间，成天躺在床上盯着天花板，从来没有见过外面的世界，除非有人愿意背起他们，带他们出去。他说难怪这么多残疾人都梦想变成一只小鸟。贝林先生说我们很多人认为轮椅是一种禁锢，但是对于数百万残疾人而言，它不是禁锢，而是自由，行动和上学的自由，投票的自由，求职的自由，展望未来的自由。他已经为全世界40万人带去了自由和轮椅。这就是个人的力量。
我的岳母，尤妮斯·肯尼迪·施莱佛——我总是喜欢提到她，因为她的善良——例如，她创办了特殊奥林匹克运动会，专为智障人士设立。当然，设立之初专家们告诉她：“不行，你不能把智障人士带出精神病院去参加体育活动。他们会在游泳池里溺水，他们会自相残杀，互相伤害。不要这样做。”但是尤妮斯·肯尼迪·施莱佛有梦想，有激情。今天全世界有几百万人在特殊奥林匹克运动会上比拼，包括中国。这就是我五年前来这里的原因。五年前，一共有50万人参加了特殊奥林匹克运动会。50万人得到了一个参加体育比赛的机会，得到了医疗保健的机会，得到了被平等对待的机会，还有尊敬和宽容。这就是个人的力量。尤妮斯·肯尼迪·施莱佛是又一个例子。
我想告诉你们的是你们每一个人都具有这种力量。所以，当你们的学识不断丰富，当你们变得更聪明，更富有，请想一想，有数百万人需要你们的帮助。现在，你们可以问自己一个问题，我能做什么？让我告诉你们。即便你们可能没有钱，甚至一无所有，你们依然可以走出去，教一个孩子学会阅读。你们可以走出去帮助残疾人，抱起他们，走到户外，让他们看看外面的世界。你们可以做太多不同的事情。你们可以带智障人士去看一场足球赛。个人可以通过做各种各样的事，来伸出援手，帮助他人。
设想一下，如果全中国13亿人民都能放飞各自的梦想，将会取得多大的成就。设想一下美妙的前景。你们每一个人都有改变的力量，都有梦想的力量，这些力量是无穷的。你们朝气蓬勃，你们学识丰富，你们是中国培养的精英。我年轻的朋友们，我相信你们的梦想。我相信你们可以梦想成真，我相信你们可以做出改变，巨大的改变。你们要做的只是为之奉献，你们要做的就是把梦想付诸行动并全心投入，对自己说：“让我们放手去做。”
谢谢大家！
第四篇：施瓦辛格在清华大学的演讲_英汉对照
为梦想执着
——美国加州前州长阿诺德·施瓦辛格在清华大学的演讲
It is wonderful to be here at this university.What a special place.I just looked around a little bit here, it’s a gorgeous, gorgeous place.I want to congratulate you for going to this magnificent university here.Now, the last time I was here in China was five years ago, and then I was promoting my movies.They had a movie festival here, the Arnold Schwarzenegger Movie Festival.I remember they showed all my movies for a week—which was a rarity, may I remind you—and they also showed the movies on television.But we also were here to promote Special Olympics, which is an organization that helps people with mental disabilities, so I was here for both reasons.But this time I’m here as the governor of the great state of California.I’m here representing the people of California, and we’re here on a trade mission to see how we can do more business with China and to help each other, because both California is a very fast growing state, and China is a very fast growing country, and there are a lot of things that we can do for one another.But I didn’t want to miss the opportunity to come here today and to talk with the young people;as a matter of fact, to the brightest young people of China.And this is why it is so great to be here at the Tsinghua University, and I’m honored that I was invited here.Now, I read a little bit about the history of Tsinghua, and I learned that actually this school originally prepared students to attend universities in America.Now, I also know that since the attack on our World Trade Centers it has become more and more difficult to go to the universities in America because you need to fill out all kinds of paperwork now and you have to get visas, and it’s very complicated, and you have to wait a much longer period of time to go over there.But let me tell you, things are improving already.I’ve heard that it’s easing up, the restrictions, and it’s easier to get a visa.My young Chinese friends, I want to tell you that in case no one from America has ever invited you, let me do this right now personally.I want to warmly invite all of you here to come to the United States, and especially to come to California, because that’s the happening place.California is the best place.Please come and visit us, we will welcome you.I invite you all to come there and to travel, to meet the American people, and to come there and study in our universities, and some day hopefully you will come and do business over there, or maybe you’ll want to move over there.Whatever your goal is, you’re always welcome.America, after all, let’s not forget, is the land of opportunity.And it’s not only the land of opportunity for Austrians like me, but for Chinese people as well.Remember that.I know that beginning with this century, China is also becoming a land of opportunity.It’s a fast growing place, and as the students of this great university and the citizens of a rising China, I think that you have a great future also here in this country.And today I want to talk to you a little bit about the dreams, about the dreams of your future, and dreams for this country.I want to talk to you a little bit about dreams, because it seems to me that I’m somewhat of an expert in dreams, because I had a lot of my dreams become a reality.So let me just briefly tell you my story, and tell you a little bit about how I started with my career.I think that this story kind of relates a little bit also to you, and also to China.I started way back as a weightlifter.I always liked the idea of lifting weights and being a bodybuilder.From the first moment when I gripped a barbell and held it around the bar and lifted the steel up over my head, I felt this exhilaration, and I knew then that this is something that I’m going to do;that I was in love with that, and this is going to be something that I’m going to do.I’m going to pursue the sport of weightlifting and bodybuilding.Now, I remember the first real workout that I had.Eight miles away from my home village in Austria there was a gymnasium, and I rode to that gymnasium with a bicycle.And there I trained for half an hour, because they said that after half an hour you should stop because otherwise your body will get really sore.But after half an hour I looked at my body, and nothing had happened.So I said, “I’d better work out for another half hour.” So I lifted some more.My strength didn’t improve, I didn’t see the muscles pop out or anything like that, so I trained for another half an hour.And then after another half hour I trained another half hour, and all together I trained two and a half hours.Well, let me tell you something.After two and a half hours—even though they told me that I shouldn’t train that much or I would get really sore—I left the gymnasium, I rode my bicycle home.And after the first mile I got numb, and I couldn’t feel anymore the handle of the bicycle, and I fell off the bike and I fell into the ditch on the side of the road.So I got up again and I tried it again.Another few yards, I fell off the bicycle again.And I tried it three, four more times, and I just couldn’t ride my bicycle because my body was so numb and my legs felt like noodles.Well, let me tell you something.The next morning when I got up, my body was so sore that I couldn’t even lift my arms to comb my hair.I had to have my mother comb my hair, and you know how embarrassing that is.But you know something? I learned a very important lesson, that pain means progress.Pain is progress.Each time my muscles were sore from a workout I knew that they were growing and they were getting stronger.I think there is a real life lesson in that.After two or three years of discipline and determination and working out hard, I actually changed my body, and I changed my strength.And that told me something;that if I could change my body that much, and if I could change the strength of my body that much, then I could also change anything else.I could change my habits, I could change my intelligence, I could change my attitude, my mind, my future, my life.And this is exactly what I have done.I think that that lesson applies to people, and it also applies to countries.You can change, China can change, everyone in the world can change.My parents, of course, I have to tell you, didn’t understand my dreams at all.They were always wondering, they said, “What is he doing? When are you going to get a job, a real job? When are you going to make money?” And all of those questions I got.And they said, “I hope we didn’t raise a bum, someone that doesn’t make money and just wants to live in a gymnasium and think about their bodies.” Well, I endured all of this negative thinking, and the more negative the thinking got, and the more negative the questions got, the stronger and the more positive I became, the stronger I became inside.So of course some of your families maybe think the same way, and this is why I’m mentioning that.Some of your families maybe don’t believe in your dreams.But let me tell you something, my young friends.Keep your dreams.No matter what, keep your dreams.Don’t give up on them, even when you are temporarily defeated or denied.Keep your dreams.I remember the first time I went to the United States and I was competing in a competition, the World Championships in Bodybuilding.I lost.I came in second, and I was devastated.I was crushed.I felt like a loser, a major loser, let me tell you.I cried, as a matter of fact, because I felt like I disappointed my friends and I disappointed myself.But the next day I got my act together, I shifted gears, and I said, “I’m going to learn from that lesson.I’m going to stay here in America.I’m not going to go back to Europe.I’m going to stay in America and I’m going to train with the American champions, I’m going to train the American way.I’m going to eat the American food, I’m going to train with the American machines and the principles.And a year later, in America, I became the World Champion in Bodybuilding.So I think this is a very, very important lesson.And from then on, I continued.My career took off, and everything that I wanted to do I accomplished.First it was to become a champion in bodybuilding.Later on I became a movie star, to do all the great movies, the Conan movies and the Terminator movies and all this.Then I became the governor of the great state of California, of the sixth largest economy in the world.All of this happened because of my dreams, even though other people told me that those dreams were bogus and they were crazy, but I held onto my dreams.And people would always say, no matter what, even in bodybuilding they said I would never make it.And later on in the movies, in Hollywood they said I would not make it.They said, ”You will never make it.You have a German accent.No one in Hollywood has ever made it with a German accent.Yeah, maybe you can play some Nazi roles or something like that, but you cannot become a leading star with an accent.Plus your body, you’re overdeveloped, you have all these muscles.They did Hercules movies 20 years ago, that’s outdated.Now it’s Woody Allen.Woody Allen is in, his body is in.“ And those were the messages.”And Al Pacino, the skinny guy, he is in.But not your body, it’s too big.And your name, Schwarzenegger, it will never fit on a movie poster.Forget it.Forget it, you will never make it.Go back to bodybuilding.“
Well, the rest is history.After Terminator 3, I became the highest paid movie star in Hollywood.And let me tell you something, it continued on.Even when I ran for governor people said, ”Arnold, you will never make it.You will never become governor of California.What do you know about government?“ Well, the fact is, I knew exactly as much about government as the rest of the people knew in California, which is that government is out of touch, and it’s out of sync with the people, and it needed a shakeup.So I didn’t listen to all those people that said I would never make it.I continued campaigning, I listened to my dreams, and the rest also is history.I became governor.So always it just carried me on, those dreams.So bodybuilding gave me the confidence, movies gave me the money, and pubic service and being a governor gave me a purpose larger than myself.And that is the brief story of my dreams and a brief story of my early life, and how my dreams made me successful.A person, of course, should not be stingy with their dreams.So I, of course, don’t just think and dream about myself, but I also have dreams for you, and dreams for China.So let me just talk a little bit about that.China’s economy has become an engine of human progress, lifting millions of people out of poverty.This is a moral and economic good for China and for the rest of the world.I often read that China’s economy is likely to become the largest in the world over the next 50 years, and I think this is terrific.This does not mean, of course, that America will get poorer;it just means that China will get richer, and the United States will benefit from China’s progress as much as the U.S.benefited from the rise of Western Europe after World War II.Some in my country fear that China’s research and development will overtake America’s, but I believe that America and the world will benefit from China’s scientific and technological advances.I think we will benefit from that.If China makes advances in stem cell research, the rest of the world will benefit from that.If China discovers an energy breakthrough, this is good for the rest of the world, such as the benefit of a free market.Some fear that China will buy up American companies, but that fear also existed in the ‘80s, when America feared that Japan was going to buy up American companies.So what? It was just good, and to the benefit of America.We should welcome China’s investment in American companies, just as we welcome the billions of dollars that China has invested in U.S.treasury bonds.This shows that China has faith in America, and American investment in China shows that we have faith in you.So I believe that China and U.S.economic relations will become even closer in the years ahead.Certainly I realize that we do not agree on everything, but who does? Certainly I realize that China has major hurdles to overcome, but it is not for me to say how China should overcome those hurdles and achieve its dreams.But I can tell you, however, what has given America such energy and strength over the last 200 years, and perhaps there are some insights in this for China.America is a nation that believes in the power of the individual, and what the individual can accomplish, no matter the color, no matter the religion, no matter the ethnic background of the individual.Recently, as you probably have read, Rosa Parks, a former seamstress married to a barber, married to a hairdresser, died, and she lay in honor in the Rotunda of the U.S.Capitol in Washington.People from around America came to say farewell to her and to thank her for changing our history and for changing our society.Now, what did this 92 year-old black woman do that deserved such great honor? What did she do? Well, in 1955, the days of racial segregation, she had refused to give up her seat on the bus to a white man.She had refused.Her simple refusal to move to the back of the bus put into motion events that led to my country’s great civil rights movement.The small protest of a woman that maybe weighed less than 100 lbs.brought down a racist system.As you can see, the individual can make a difference.Let me tell you about another individual, Ken Behring, a millionaire California businessman who found his passion in giving wheelchairs to poor and physically disabled people all around the globe, including China.He says that he has met people who have spent years in rooms with no window, just lying there and staring up at the ceiling, never seeing the outside world unless someone was willing to pick up that person and take them outside to show them the world.He says that it’s no wonder so many of those physically disabled people dream about being a bird.Mr.Behring says that most of us think that a wheelchair would be a confinement, but to millions of people it is not a confinement, it is freedom, freedom to move and to go to school, freedom to vote, freedom to get a job, and freedom for hope for the future.He has given freedom and wheelchairs to 400,000 people around the world.The individual can make a difference.My mother-in-law, Eunice Kennedy Shriver—I always like to mention her, because it gets me on the good side of her—she, for instance, started an organization called Special Olympics.She stared Special Olympics which is for people with mental disabilities.And of course when she started that organization she was told by the experts, ”Don’t do it.You cannot take people with mental disabilities out of mental institutions and have them participate in sports events.They will drown in the swimming pools.They will kill each other out there, they will hurt each other.Don’t do it.“ But Eunice Kennedy Shriver had a dream and a passion, and today millions of people compete in Special Olympics around the world, including right here in China.This is why I was here five years ago.Five years ago you had 50,000 participants in the Special Olympics.Today, five years later, you have 500,000 participants in Special Olympics.500,000 people are getting a chance to participate in sports programs, getting a chance to have health care, have a chance to be treated equally, with respect and with tolerance.So Eunice Kennedy Shriver exemplifies that the individual can make a difference.And I think what I’m trying to say to you is that each and every one of you can make a difference.So as you study and as you become smarter, and as you become richer, think about that, that there are millions of people that need your help.Now, you maybe ask yourself the question, what can I do? Well, let me tell you.Even though you maybe have no money or anything, you can go out and help a child that has not yet learned yet how to read.You maybe can go out and help a person that is physically handicapped, to lift them up and to take them outside so they can see the world.There are so many different things that you can do.You maybe can take a person that is mentally disabled, to take them to a soccer game.There are all kinds of things that the individual can do to reach out and to help.Imagine what could be accomplished if the dreams of China’s 1.3 billion individuals could be unleashed.Imagine what could happen.Each of you here has the power of the individual within you, you have the power of your dreams within you, and these are tremendous powers.You’re young, you’re educated, and you are the very best China has to offer.My young Chinese friends, I believe in your dreams.I believe that you can achieve them, and I believe you can make a difference, a big difference.All you have to do is just make the commitment.All you have to do is create the action and commit, and say, ”Let’s do it." Go out and do it.I’m asking you.Do it for yourself, do it for China, and do it for the good of the world.Thank you very much for listening.Thank you 6
第五篇：施瓦辛格在清华大学的演讲稿
Well, thank you very much, President.（好的，非常感谢，校长）First of all, I want to thank President Gu for having me here, and I want to thank Mr.Qizhi for your kind introduction.Thank you very much.（首先，我想感谢顾校长邀请我到这里，同样非常感谢齐志先生的亲切介绍，非常感谢。）
It is wonderful to be here at this university.What a special place.（很高兴来到这里，来到这所特殊别的大学）I just looked around a little bit here, it’s a gorgeous, gorgeous place.（我刚才在这儿简单环顾了一下四周，这是一个漂亮的，富丽堂皇的地方）I want to congratulate you for going to this magnificent university here.（我想要祝贺你走进了这样一所宏伟的大学）
Now, the last time I was here in China was five years ago,（现在离我上次在中国已经有五年之久了）and then I was promoting my movies（然而那时我正在推广我的电影）.They had a movie festival here, the Arnold Schwarzenegger Movie Festival.（当时阿诺德电影节在这里举行）I remember they showed all my movies for a week—which was a rarity,（我记得一件罕见的事情，他们用一周的时间展示了我所有的电影）may I remind you—and they also showed the movies on television.（另一点你们可能不知道的，他们也在电视上放了这些电影）But we also were here to promote Special Olympics, which is an organization that helps people with mental disabilities,（同时，我们也在这儿帮助一个救助智障人们的特奥会）so I was here for both reasons.（这就是我在中国的两个原因）
But this time I’m here as the governor of the great state of California.I’m here representing the people of California, and we’re here on a trade mission to see how we can do more business with China and to help each other, because both California is a very fast growing state, and China is a very fast growing country, and there are a lot of things that we can do for one another.But I didn’t want to miss the opportunity to come here today and to talk with the young people;as a matter of fact, to the brightest young people of China.And this is why it is so great to be here at the Tsinghua University, and I’m honored that I was invited here.Now, I read a little bit about the history of Tsinghua, and I learned that actually this school originally prepared students to attend universities in America.Now, I also know that since the attack on our World Trade Centers it has become more and more difficult to go to the universities in America because you need to fill out all kinds of paperwork now and you have to get visas, and it’s very complicated, and you have to wait a much longer period of time to go over there.But let me tell you, things are improving already.I’ve heard that it’s easing up, the restrictions, and it’s easier to get a visa.My young Chinese friends, I want to tell you that in case no one from America has ever invited you, let me do this right now personally.I want to warmly invite all of you here to come to the United States, and especially to come to California, because that’s the happening place.California is the best place.Please come and visit us, we will welcome you.I invite you all to come there and to travel, to meet the American people, and to come there and study in our universities, and some day hopefully you will come and do business over there, or maybe you’ll want to move over there.Whatever your goal is, you’re always welcome.America, after all, let’s not forget, is the land of opportunity.And it’s not only the land of opportunity for Austrians like me, but for Chinese people as well.Remember that.I know that beginning with this century, China is also becoming a land of opportunity.It’s a
fast growing place, and as the students of this great university and the citizens of a rising China, I think that you have a great future also here in this country.And today I want to talk to you a little bit about the dreams, about the dreams of your future, and dreams for this country.I want to talk to you a little bit about dreams, because it seems to me that I’m somewhat of an expert in dreams, because I had a lot of my dreams become a reality.So let me just briefly tell you my story, and tell you a little bit about how I started with my career.I think that this story kind of relates a little bit also to you, and also to China.I started way back as a weightlifter.I always liked the idea of lifting weights and being a bodybuilder.From the first moment when I gripped a barbell and held it around the bar and lifted the steel up over my head, I felt this exhilaration, and I knew then that this is something that I’m going to do;that I was in love with that, and this is going to be something that I’m going to do.I’m going to pursue the sport of weightlifting and bodybuilding.Now, I remember the first real workout that I had.Eight miles away from my home village in Austria there was a gymnasium, and I rode to that gymnasium with a bicycle.And there I trained for half an hour, because they said that after half an hour you should stop because otherwise your body will get really sore.But after half an hour I looked at my body, and nothing had happened.So I said, “I’d better work out for another half hour.” So I lifted some more.My strength didn’t improve, I didn’t see the muscles pop out or anything like that, so I trained for another half an hour.And then after another half hour I trained another half hour, and all together I trained two and a half hours.Well, let me tell you something.After two and a half hours—even though they told me that I shouldn’t train that much or I would get really sore—I left the gymnasium, I rode my bicycle home.And after the first mile I got numb, and I couldn’t feel anymore the handle of the bicycle, and I fell off the bike and I fell into the ditch on the side of the road.So I got up again and I tried it again.Another few yards, I fell off the bicycle again.And I tried it three, four more times, and I just couldn’t ride my bicycle because my body was so numb and my legs felt like noodles.Well, let me tell you something.The next morning when I got up, my body was so sore that I couldn’t even lift my arms to comb my hair.I had to have my mother comb my hair, and you know how embarrassing that is.But you know something? I learned a very important lesson, that pain means progress.Pain is progress.Each time my muscles were sore from a workout I knew that they were growing and they were getting stronger.I think there is a real life lesson in that.After two or three years of discipline and determination and working out hard, I actually changed my body, and I changed my strength.And that told me something;that if I could change my body that much, and if I could change the strength of my body that much, then I could also change anything else.I could change my habits, I could change my intelligence, I could change my attitude, my mind, my future, my life.And this is exactly what I have done.I think that that lesson applies to people, and it also applies to countries.You can change, China can change, everyone in the world can change.My parents, of course, I have to tell you, didn’t understand my dreams at all.They were always wondering, they said, “What is he doing? When are you going to get a job, a real job? When are you going to make money?” And all of those questions I got.And they
said, “I hope we didn’t raise a bum, someone that doesn’t make money and just wants to live in a gymnasium and think about their bodies.” Well, I endured all of this negative thinking, and the more negative the thinking got, and the more negative the questions got, the stronger and the more positive I became, the stronger I became inside.So of course some of your families maybe think the same way, and this is why I’m mentioning that.Some of your families maybe don’t believe in your dreams.But let me tell you something, my young friends.Keep your dreams.No matter what, keep your dreams.Don’t give up on them, even when you are temporarily defeated or denied.Keep your dreams.I remember the first time I went to the United States and I was competing in a competition, the World Championships in Bodybuilding.I lost.I came in second, and I was devastated.I was crushed.I felt like a loser, a major loser, let me tell you.I cried, as a matter of fact, because I felt like I disappointed my friends and I disappointed myself.But the next day I got my act together, I shifted gears, and I said, “I’m going to learn from that lesson.I’m going to stay here in America.I’m not going to go back to Europe.I’m going to stay in America and I’m going to train with the American champions, I’m going to train the American way.I’m going to eat the American food, I’m going to train with the American machines and the principles.And a year later, in America, I became the World Champion in Bodybuilding.So I think this is a very, very important lesson.And from then on, I continued.My career took off, and everything that I wanted to do I accomplished.First it was to become a champion in bodybuilding.Later on I became a movie star, to do all the great movies, the Conan movies and the Terminator movies and all this.Then I became the governor of the great state of California, of the sixth largest economy in the world.All of this happened because of my dreams, even though other people told me that those dreams were bogus and they were crazy, but I held onto my dreams.And people would always say, no matter what, even in bodybuilding they said I would never make it.And later on in the movies, in Hollywood they said I would not make it.They said, ”You will never make it.You have a German accent.No one in Hollywood has ever made it with a German accent.Yeah, maybe you can play some Nazi roles or something like that, but you cannot become a leading star with an accent.Plus your body, you’re overdeveloped, you have all these muscles.They did Hercules movies 20 years ago, that’s outdated.Now it’s Woody Allen.Woody Allen is in, his body is in.“ And those were the messages.”And Al Pacino, the skinny guy, he is in.But not your body, it’s too big.And your name, Schwarzenegger, it will never fit on a movie poster.Forget it.Forget it, you will never make it.Go back to bodybuilding.“ Well, the rest is history.After Terminator 3, I became the highest paid movie star in Hollywood.And let me tell you something, it continued on.Even when I ran for governor people said, ”Arnold, you will never make it.You will never become governor of California.What do
