第一篇:名人毕业典礼演讲[模版]
大学生必看的5个国外名人毕业典礼演讲节选 1.乔布斯(steve jobs)在斯坦福毕业典礼的演讲——stay hungry.stay foolish.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 impression 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,那么有一天你会发现你是正确的。”这句话给我留下了深刻的印象。从那时开始,过了33 年,我在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,你会不会完成你今天想做的事情呢?”当答案连续很多次被给予“不是”的时候,我知道自己需要改变某些事情了。2.杰夫·贝佐斯(jeff bezos)在普林斯顿毕业典礼的演讲——we are our choices.i didn’t think i’d regret trying and failing.and i suspected i would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.我认为我不会为失败地尝试而遗憾,但是有所决定但完全不去付诸行动则可能会一直煎熬着我。will inertia be your guide,or will you follow your passions?
你们是被惯性所引导,还是追随自己内心的热情? will you follow dogma,or will you be original?
你们会墨守陈规,还是勇于创新? will you choose a life of ease,or a life of service and adventure?
你们会选择安逸的生活,还是选择一个奉献与冒险的人生? will you wilt under criticism,or will you follow your convictions?
你们会屈从于批评,还是会坚守信念? will you bluff it out when you’re wrong,or will you apologize? 你们会掩饰错误,还是会坦诚道歉? will you guard your heart against rejection,or will you act when you fall in love?
你们会因害怕拒绝而掩饰内心,还是会在面对爱情时勇往直前? will you play it safe,or will you be a little bit swashbuckling?
你们想要波澜不惊,还是想要搏击风浪? when it’s tough,will you give up,or will you be relentless?
你们会在严峻的现实之下选择放弃,还是会义无反顾地前行? will you be a cynic,or will you be a builder?
你们要做愤世嫉俗者,还是踏实的建设者? will you be clever at the expense of others,or will you be kind?
你们要不计一切代价地展示聪明,还是选择善良? 3.jk罗琳在哈佛大学毕业典礼上的演讲——as is a tale,so is life: not how long it is,but how good it is,is what matters 如果能回到过去,她会告诉21岁的自己:一个人的幸福在于他懂得——生活不等于你的收获和成就。你的简历,你的证书并不代表你的生活,尽管很多人会混淆着两者。生活是如此的复杂,任何人都无法掌控它。明白了这一点,你就能够宠辱不惊。4.奥普拉(oprah)在斯坦福2008年毕业典礼上的演讲——feelings,failure and finding happiness.正如b.b.king所说:“关于学习的美好在于别人不会把知识从你身上拿走”。学习正是我今天想说的,因为你们的教育并没有在这里结束。在很多情况下,这才是刚刚开使。这个世界将会教会你们很多。我认为这个世界,这个地球,就像一个学校和我们人生的教室。有时这些课程会是弯路和障碍。有时会充满危机。我所学的应付这一切的秘密就是去勇于面对,正如我们面对大学课程一样。now i want to talk a little bit about failings,because nobody’s journey is seamless or smooth.we all stumble.we all have setbacks.if things go wrong,you hit a dead end—as you will—it’s just life’s way of saying time to change course.so,ask every failure—this is what i do with every failure,every crisis,every difficult time—i say,what is this here to teach me? and as soon as you get the lesson,you get to move on.if you really get the lesson,you pass and you don’t have to repeat the class.if you don’t get the lesson,it shows up wearing another pair of pants—or skirt—to give you some remedial work.现在我想谈谈失败。没有人他的一生是一帆风顺的。我们都会遇到困难,受到挫折。如果事情出错了,你进入了死胡同,这正是生活在告诉你是时候改变了。所以,每当遇到困难和危机时,我都会问它教会了我什么?只要你吸取了教训,你就会继续前进。如果你真正吸取了教训,你就会顺利通过考验,不用再取经受失败了。如果你没有吸取教训,它会以另外一种形式给出现在你面前并给你一些补救。
5、ellen degeneres在纽奥良大学的毕业典礼——you’re going to be ok so in conclusion,when i was younger i thought success was something different.i thought when i grow up,i want to be famous.i want to be a star.i want to be in movies.when i grow up i want to see the world,drive nice cars,i want to have groupies.to quote the pussycat dolls.how many people thought it was “boobies”,by the way? it’s not,it’s “groupies”。but my idea of success is different today.and as you grow,you’ll realise the definition of success changes.for many of you,today,success is being able to hold down 20 shots of tequila.for 因此,这是不是结论的结论,当我年轻时,对成功的定义不同,我想我的志愿是:我想出名,想当明星,拍电影,我想要去看世界,开名车,有一群死党?? 但今日我对成功的定义变了,当你长大,你就会发现这点。对你们中的很多人来说,成功的定义是能灌下20杯龙舌兰酒(大家笑)。对我来说,生命中最重要的事是:活得诚实!别逼自己去做不是真正的你,要活得正直,有怜悯之心,在某些方面有所贡献。
因此,这是结论的结论(众人笑):追随热情,忠于自我,绝不要追随别人的脚步,除非你在森林里迷路了才要这么做。别给人忠告,别接受任何人的忠告。所以?我要给大家的忠告是(大家大笑):做真实的你,一切都会没事的。你们都知道很多时候我们最可怕的敌人就是我们自己,我们跟内心的各种对世界未来的怀疑、忧虑和恐惧作斗争。有时,看着世界上正在发生的一切,我难以想象自己走出去并做些有意义的事。但事实是,我们能够这样做,而且我们必须这样做。美国需要大家抓紧这一时刻,勇于竞争并尽你们所能,让我们的国家变得尽可能美好。而我,作为美丽非凡的纽约州的议员,承诺我会尽我所能来帮助你们。今天,在领完你们的毕业证书离开校园之前,请你们感谢你们的家人,感谢他们的指导使你能到达今天这个激动人心的时刻。感谢你们的教授把一个全新的世界展现给你们。感谢你的朋友们,一起探索这个世界。最后,请记住今天这份美好的感觉。永远珍惜它,不断地追求。世界等待这你们,愿上帝助你们成功。感谢大家。篇二:盘点美国2015大学毕业典礼上的名人“金句”
盘点美国2015大学毕业典礼上的名人“金句”
又到了美国的春季毕业季。每年此时,美国的大学都会邀请政治、商业、科技、文化领域的佼佼者,给毕业生们提供进入社会前的嘱托。这些名流不仅以被邀演讲为荣幸,在演讲中也会透露很多人生智慧和经验教训。
以下是《青年参考》特别选出的美国大学2015年毕业典礼主题演讲的精彩瞬间。
蒂姆 库克蒂姆 库克
“价值观和行动力能改变世界”
美国苹果公司ceo蒂姆.库克在乔治华盛顿大学的毕业典礼上,讲到“要始终不渝地坚持你的价值观,这将会改变你的人生,并最终改变世界”。“我们相信,有价值观和行动力的公司真能改变世界。个人也做得到。毕业生们,你们的价值观很重要,那是你们的北极星。我们需要你们这代人中最优秀的,成为政府、商界、科学界、艺术界、新闻业和学术领域的领头人。你们不需要在干好事和干得好之间选择,那是个假命题,今天尤其如此。”
“(乔布斯)让我相信,如果我们努力工作,制造好的产品,我们可以改变世界。17年过去了,我从没改变信念。” “无论你们接下来做什么,世界都需要你们的能量、激情,和进步的冲劲。不要因为风险而退缩,也不要听那些愤世嫉俗和批评的声音。历史很少由一个人创造,但不要忘记那真的可能发生。那个人可以是你,应该是你,也必须是你。”
克里斯托弗 诺兰克里斯托弗 诺兰
“不要痴迷于梦想,应把握现实”
《蝙蝠侠》系列导演克里斯托弗.诺兰在普林斯顿大学毕业演讲中,规劝毕业生不要执 着于虚无的梦想,应把握现实。
“按照毕业典礼发言的传统,演讲人该说些‘追逐梦想’之类的话。我不想那么做,我希望你们能追求现实。人们总是将现实看做梦想的穷亲戚,在我看来,我们的梦想是虚拟的现实,我们喜爱的这种抽象的东西,不过是现实的子集。”
诺兰还说,进入社会后你会发现,你原本以为自己的知识储备如同可以前进的轮子,实际上不过是块四处是洞的瑞士奶酪。“那些洞才是关键,你可能从前都不知道它们的存在。你必须用经验去填补。有些经验很美妙,有些则糟透了。你必须一路学习。”
“你们在学校中学到的会帮助你完成这个过程。你们学会的不是知识本身,而是如何学习。更主要的是,有些知识漏洞可被更宝贵的东西填补:新思想、新点子、那些会改变世界的东西。”
他最后说:“更重要的是,布鲁斯.韦恩(蝙蝠侠)进入了普林斯顿,但没毕业。所以从明天开始,你们已经比蝙蝠侠更棒了!”
阿里安娜 赫芬顿阿里安娜 赫芬顿
“重视与自己的关系”
《赫芬顿邮报》联合创始人阿里安娜.赫芬顿在瓦萨大学的毕业典礼上,谈了人和科技、自己以及这个世界的关系:
“没有哪代人像你们这样自由并通过科技彼此联系。同样,也没有哪代人像你们这样被科技分散精力和奴役。正如作家埃里克.巴克所说,‘那些能坐在椅子上、几小时不分心的人,能成为大师并创造出统治世界的东西,因为其他人疯狂且徒劳地希望跟上推特网上的信息或其他打扰我们的东西。’”
赫芬顿建议毕业生学会设置数字产品进入生活的界限,并定期从那些混乱和不和谐中抽身,找时间和自己交流。“事实上,我们中的很多人对手机状态的了解超过对自己状态的了解。我打赌这里的每个人都知道你的手机有多少剩余电量,当电量不足20%时,我们焦虑,想尽办法找地方充电。但你们中有多少人知道自己的状态?知道自己的能量储量?当发现自己动力不足时,你们能否快速采取行动?”
“幸运的话,我们只有3万天可以进行生命的游戏。相信我,这么想并非病态。事实上,这种智慧可以让我们转个角度去看待无法避免的失败、拒绝、失望和伤心。古罗马人会在雕塑和树上刻写‘纪念死亡’,去正确看待每次胜利和失败。”
德瓦尔 帕特里克德瓦尔 帕特里克
保持不安和利用无知
前马塞诸塞州州长德瓦尔.帕特里克在哈佛大学演讲时鼓励毕业生保持一丝不安:“无疑,世界是你们的。即便如此,我仍希望你们能感到一丝不安。你不敢肯定知道了该知道的一切,进而促使你超越自己,去找寻答案和意义。”
“我不希望街道上出现不安,但我希望这种情绪存在于我们的思想和心里。我希望所有人都会对黑人的现状、人们对贫困的冷漠感到不安;我希望我们会对社区的衰落和慢性绝望不安。我们需要不安的领袖,他们不会让自己的理想在与现实的对抗中阵亡,他们能听到弱势群体的喊声,正像我们听到权贵的声音一样。”
奥斯卡影后娜塔莉.波特曼则在哈佛校友日的毕业演讲中建议:“充分利用你们现在‘还不会过多怀疑自己’这个优势。随着我们长大,我们会越来越现实,而那包括对自己能力的判断。变得现实并不会帮助我们。”
“你的缺乏经验会成为一种资本,会让你用原创、非传统的方式思考。接受你的无知,并将此当成财富。”
梅瑞狄斯.维埃拉梅瑞狄斯.维埃拉
“做那只左边的鲨鱼”
美国全国广播公司主持人、畅销书作家梅瑞狄斯.维埃拉在波士顿大学演讲时,鼓励毕业生保持自我,不要随波逐流。
“在一生中,你会不断设置优先级。你不可能总是做出最好的决定,但你就是在这个过程中学习的,认识真正的自己以及什么对你最重要。我认识很多人,他们为了迎合他人而牺牲了自己的价值观,经常那样做就会迷失自我。”
“只有保持真实,才会让你昂首挺胸、足下生根。所以不要追求别人定义的完美,那只是无法实现的可笑目标。你该力争成为独一无二的自己,当你摇摆不定时,跟随你的直觉,你已经知道该怎样做了。” 她鼓励学生做“左边的那只鲨鱼”。“记得去年超级碗比赛中爱国者获胜那场吗?我想说的是凯蒂.佩里参与的半场表演。她和两只鲨鱼一起跳舞,右边那只所有的舞步都精准到位,中规中矩。然而,左边的那只鲨鱼,按照流氓的步伐舞出了自己的节拍,却吸引了全场的注意。所以,永远不要为了方便而循规蹈矩,正如马克.吐温所说,‘当你发现自己和多数人走在一起时,是时候停下来反思了。’”

毕业典礼演讲稿
---付出、收获、感恩与梦想
敬的各位领导、老师、亲爱的同学们: 大家晚上好!我是*级跨公管*班的***,今天作为毕业生代表,站在这庄严的毕业典礼上,代表全体毕业生在此发言,我深感荣幸。首先,请允许我代表全体毕业生向辛勤培育我们的领导、老师们,表示最衷心的感谢和最崇高的敬意!向朝夕相处的同学们说一声:你们是我心中永远的小苹果,我们真的毕业了!
大学,或许是我们一生中最美好,最值得纪念的日子,校园里留下了我们指点江山,激扬文字的青春豪情,留下了我们孜孜以求的奋斗足迹,留下了同窗之间,师生之间的深厚情谊。在新的征程里,有的同学选择继续读研深造,有的同学将踏上工作的岗位,但无论如何,我们都将这一切铭记于心。
大学时光如白驹过隙,转瞬即逝。弹指一挥间,我们已从懵懂的新生,成长为成熟的毕业生。我们从稚嫩逐渐走向成熟,一路上大家互相帮助、共勉奋进,知识的汲取,社会实践的历练,让大学生活变得丰富多彩,回想曾经的大学生活,相信我们是充实而快乐的,哪怕流泪过、痛苦过,但我相信此时此刻的我们是激动的。相信经历了大学生活,此时我们的心情一定是别样的,大学生活让我们懂得了辛苦,也懂得了快乐;相信大学的生活定会是我们每个人最珍贵的回忆。
经历了大学生活的紧张和忙碌,我此刻的心情应当和在座的各位同学一样,纵然喜悦,也掩不住回忆与留恋。即将毕业的我们感慨万千。在这里我想表达我内心的真实感受,我心中的大学它意味着付出、意味着收获、意味着感恩!
我们感谢父母,他们为我们付出了太多太多。并不是每一个家庭都是那么优越,或许他们会为了你下一年的学费而加班加点劳累至深夜,或许他们为了让你在学校生活好一点自己却省吃俭用,他们总是默默的付出,将朴实无华的爱融入在生活的点滴里。一路上风雨兼程,他们撑起一片灿烂无比的晴空,用细致无私的爱,给了我们温暖的港湾和不断前行的力量,却从不索求,让我们把诚挚的谢意献给他们,用一生去回报他们无尽的恩情。在这里,请允许我代表所有的同学为爸爸妈妈们深深的鞠一躬,感谢他们二十多年来的含辛茹苦,感谢他们对我们的养育之恩。我们感谢老师,是他们引领我们步入知识的殿堂,是他们授予我们专业知识、教诲我们做人的道理,是他们的关怀,使我们可以自信地面对任何艰难困苦;是他们的呵护,才使得我们顺利完成学业,获得继续追求的机会;是他们的宽容,可以按我们自己的方式,按我们自己的理想学会生活。感激的话千言万语,再华丽的辞藻也无法表达我们对他们尊敬与爱戴。作为学生的我们即将远行,就让我们深情的说一声:老师,您辛苦了!
我们感谢母校,她为我们提供了学习求知的环境,为我们成长成才构筑了坚实的平台;是她包容了我们的懵懂无知,是她给了我们展 示自我的舞台。学校的学习风气、学习理念将使我们终生受益。我们不仅学到了知识,而且学会了怎样做人,做一个勤奋、诚实的人,这是学院给我们最大的财富
我们感谢所有同学,在大学期间的关心与支持,我们珍视那份难得的纯真友谊。现在,我们即将离开,让我们认真保存好每张合影,因为合影上的灿烂笑容已经定格在记忆中;让我们用力拥抱每一个我们喜欢、我们欣赏或曾经帮助过我们的人,也让我们在送别的时候,更多的记住彼此灿烂的笑脸!
这几年的大学生活里,我们收获了太多,也错过了太多,我们总以为自己已经长大,总以为自己可以毫不在乎,但当离别到来的时候,才发现自己内心最真实的感受。
将要离别时总该要对大家说些话,有太多发自肺腑的话要说,算作我对大家的鼓励与祝福:
每个人都有梦想和追求,在这样一个充满机遇和挑战的大环境下,追逐梦想的过程中,有木秀于林的骄傲,也有风必摧之的烦恼,我们要抓住契机,迎接挑战,我们要变压力为动力,化挑战为机遇,尊重选择,坚定信心,付出努力,这样我们就可以变被动为主动,后来者完全可以居上,让我们的变化更大一点,这样进步就更快一点,离我们的梦想的就更近一些。让我们始终牢记自己的梦想和责任,更加奋发有为,完成自己人生中最光荣且艰巨的任务!回顾过去,我们在不平凡的环境里迎难而上,拼搏进取,取得了不平凡的成绩。
面对现在,我们已经站在更高的起点,迈上新的征程,任何艰难也阻止不了我们前进的步伐,我们仍要以坚持和努力为自己心中规划好的美好蓝图而奋斗。
展望未来,我们对我们的锦绣前程充满信心,令人振奋,任重而道远,因此,我们要坚定必胜的信心,我相信,我们大家有信心,也有能力去创造我们灿烂的未来
今天,我站在这里为大家发言,我希望在未来的日子里,不管你是80后还是90后,都能够在各自的人生舞台上,慷慨激昂,精彩陈词,书写自己的成功与辉煌。
最后,祝我们的老师身体健康、工作顺利;
祝我们的父母永葆青春、万事如意;
祝我们**大学、祝我们**系各项事业蒸蒸日上;
祝我们2014届全体毕业生前程似锦!
谢谢大家!2014/6/27篇四:美国大学十佳毕业典礼演讲精选
每年的五六月,是美国大学举行毕业典礼的季节。按照惯例,各界名流都会受邀到各大名校去作激动人心的演讲。本文精选了近年来美国最有影响力的十佳毕业典礼演讲,与已经或即将毕业的读者朋友们共勉。1.steve jobs 史蒂芬·乔布斯
stanford university 斯坦福大学 june 12, 2005 2005年6月12日 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.your time is limited, so dont waste it living someone elses life.dont be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other peoples thinking.dont let the noise of others opinions drown out your own inner voice.and most 记着你总会死去,这是我知道的防止患得患失的最佳办法。赤条条来去无牵挂,还有什么理由不随你的心?!
你的时间是有限的,因此不要把时间浪费在过别人的生活上。不要被教条所困——使自己的生活受限于他人的思想成果。不要让他人的意见淹没了你自己内心的声音。最重要的是,要有勇气跟随你的内心与直觉,它们好歹已经知道你真正想让自己成为什么。其他的,都是次要的。2.david foster wallace 大卫·福斯特·华莱士 novelist 小说家
kenyon college 肯尼恩学院 may 21, 2005 2005年5月21日 there are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and says, “morning, boys.hows the water?” and the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes, “what the hell is water?”...simple awareness;awareness of what is so real and essential, so hidden in plain sight all around us, all the time, that we have to keep reminding ourselves over and over: “this is water.” “this is water.” it is unimaginably hard to do this, to stay conscious and alive in the adult world day in and day out.有两条小鱼一起在水里游,碰到一条老鱼迎面游过来。老鱼向他们点点头,并说:“早上好,孩子们。水怎么样?”这两条小鱼继续往前游了一会儿后,其中一条小鱼实在忍不住了,看了一下另一条小鱼,问道:“水到底是什么东西?” „„简单的意识;对我们生活中如此真实、如此必不可少、无处不在、无时不在的事物的意识,需要我们一遍一遍地提醒自己:
“这是水。”
“这是水。”
天天都保持意识清醒而鲜活,在成人世界中做到这点,是不可想象地难。3.michael uslan 迈克尔·奥斯兰
movie producer 电影制片人 indiana university 印第安纳大学 may 06, 2006 2006年5月6日 you must believe in yourself and in your work.when our first batman movie broke all those box-office records, i received a phone call from that united artists exec who, years before, had told me i was out of my mind.now he said, “michael, im just calling to congratulate you on the success of batman.i always said you were a visionary.” you see the point here — dont believe them when they tell you how bad you are or how terrible your ideas are, but also, dont believe them when they tell you how wonderful you are and how great your ideas are.just believe in yourself and youll do just fine.and, oh yes, dont then forget to market yourself and your ideas.use both sides of your brain.you must have a high threshold for frustration.take it from the guy who was turned down by every studio in hollywood.you must knock on doors until your knuckles bleed.doors will slam in your face.you must pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and knock again.its the only way to achieve your goals in life.你必须相信你自己,对自己的工作充满信心。当我们的第一部电影《蝙蝠侠》创下史无前例的票房纪录时,我接到了艺术家联合会会长的电话,他在数年之前曾说我疯了。如今他说:“迈克尔,我给你打电话祝贺《蝙蝠侠》的成功。我总说你是一位有远见的人。”你看,关键在这里,当他们说你有多差,你的想法有多糟的时候,不要信他们的话,同时,当他们告诉你你有多么了不起,你的想法多美妙时,也不要相信他们。你就只相信你自己,这样你就能做好。还有,那就是,不要忘记推销你自己和你的想法。左右大脑你都得用。
要能经受得住挫败。这是被好莱坞每一家制片厂拒绝过的人的经验。你必须去敲一扇扇的门,直到指关节流血。大门会在你面前砰然关上,你必须重振旗鼓,弹去身上的灰尘,再敲下一扇门。这是实现你人生目标的唯一办法。4.woody hayes 伍迪·海耶斯
college fooball coach 大学橄榄球教练 ohio state university 俄亥俄州立大学 may 14, 1986 1986年5月14日 in football we always said that the other team couldnt beat us.we had to be sure that we didnt beat ourselves.and that’s what people have to do, too — make sure they dont beat themselves.„„你会发现,来得容易的东西总是一文不值。事实上,我从来没有看到哪位橄榄球运动员是带着微笑完成阻截的。从来没有。5.bradley whitford 布兰德利·惠特福德 actor 演员
university wisconsin-madison 威斯康辛大学麦迪逊分校 may 17, 2006 2006年5月17日 number one: fall in love with the process and the results will follow.number two: do your work.number three: once youre prepared, throw your preparation in the trash.number four: you are capable of more than you think.number five: listen.number six: take action.you have a choice.you can either be a passive victim of circumstance or you can be the active hero of your own life.action is the antidote to apathy and cynicism and despair.第一,爱上过程,结果自然会来。
第二,做你的事。
第三,一旦准备好,就付诸行动。
第四,你能做的,超出了你的想象。
第五,聆听。
第六,采取行动。
你有一个选择。要么你成为环境的被动受害者,要么你主动成为自己生活的英雄。行动可以消除冷漠、玩世不恭与绝望。篇五:名人励志演讲 ? 福布斯中文网日前列出历年来多位亿万富豪在毕业典礼上所做演讲的节选 ? 史蒂夫
乔布斯(steve jobs):把每一天都当成生命中的最后一天 ? 在我17岁的时候,我读到了一句箴言,差不多是这样的:“如果你把每一天都当作生命中的最后一天去生活的话,那么终有一天你会发现自己是正确的。”这句话给我留下了深刻的印象,从那时算起的33年以来,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,我还会做自己今天即将要做的事吗?”当答案连续多次都是“不”时,我就知道自己需要做些改变了。——斯坦福大学,2005年 ? 比尔盖茨
? 比尔 盖茨(bill gates):你的能力越大,人们对你的期望也就越大 ? 我的母亲在我被哈佛大学录取的那一天曾经感到非常骄傲,她从没有停止督促我去为他人做更多的事情。在我结婚的前几天,她主持了一个新娘进我家的仪式。在这个仪式上,她高声朗读了一封关于婚姻的信,这是她写给梅琳达(melinda)的。那时,我的母亲已经因为癌症病入膏肓,但是她还是认为这是又一个传播自己信念的机会。在那封信的结尾,她写道:“你的能力越大,人们对你的期望也就越大。”——哈佛大学,2007年 ? 奥普拉温弗瑞
? 奥普拉 温弗瑞(oprah winfrey):我们所有人时不时都需要化化妆。? 在生活中,我们所有人时不时都需要化化妆。同学们,我清楚这一点,如果你们能看到改变自己人生的可能性,如果你们能看到自己可以成为怎样的人而不是原本的面貌,那么你们将获得巨大的成功。——杜克大学,2009年 ? 迈克尔 戴尔(michael dell):永远不要当房间里最聪明的那个人 ? 永远不要尝试成为房间里最聪明的那个人,如果你是的话,我建议你请来一位更聪明的„„或者自己换个不同的房间。在职场中,这叫做人际关系。在组织中,这叫做队伍建设。在生活中,这被称为家庭、朋友和圈子。我们都是彼此的礼物,在我成长为一名领导者的过程中,我得到的启示一遍遍地重复,即最有益的经验是来自人与人之间的关系。——得克萨斯大学,2003年
? 迈克尔 布隆伯格:保持乐观,别消沉太久 ? 我离开学校后在华尔街找到了第一份工作,我一直在那儿工作了15年。那是一段不错的历程,有快乐的时光,也有很多老板们对我的称赞。每个人都喜欢我,直到他们炒我鱿鱼的那一天!不过,我仍然保持着乐观,因为幸福对我来说一直是走出去以及尝试战胜种种困难。所以,在被解雇后的第二天——真的就是第二天——我创办了一家新的公司。——塔夫斯大学,2007年
永远不要尝试成为房间里最聪明的那个人,如果你是的话,我建议你请来一位更聪明的„„或者自己换个不同的房间。在职场中,这叫做人际关系。在组织中,这叫做队伍建设。在生活中,这被称为家庭、朋友和圈子。我们都是彼此的礼物,在我成长为一名领导者的过程中,我得到的启示一遍遍地重复,即最有益的经验是来自人与人之间的关系。——得克萨斯大学,2003年
? j.k.罗琳(jk rowling):失败乃成功之母 ? 那么,我为什么要谈论失败的好处呢?因为失败意味着剥离掉那些不必要的东西。我因此不再伪装自己、远离自我,而重新开始把所有精力放在对我最重要的事情上。如果不是没有在其他领域成功过,我可能就不会在一个我确信真正属于的舞台上找到取得成功的决心。我获得了自由,因为最害怕的虽然已经发生了,但我还活着,我仍然有一个我深爱的女儿,我还有一台旧打字机和一个很大的想法。所以,困境的谷底成为了我重建生活的坚实基础。——哈佛大学,2008年
? 杰夫 贝索斯:天赋得来很容易,而选择却颇为艰难 ? 我斗胆做一个预测:在你们80岁时某个追忆往昔的时刻,当你一个人静静地对内心诉说自己的人生故事,其中最为充实、最有意义的那段讲述会被你们作出的一系列决定所填满。最后,是选择塑造了我们的人生。为你自己塑造一个伟大的人生故事吧。——普林斯顿大学,2010年
? 马克 扎克伯格:如果你喜欢自己做的事,事情会容易很多 ? 当你回家吃饭,盘子里是最难吃的蔬菜,如果你愿意可以勉强自己吃下去。但如果你是玩游戏,即使非常难,只要自己喜欢,你也会努力通关。如果你喜欢自己做的事,事情会容易很多,而你也将拥有更大的决心。——加州门罗公园贝拉港社区学校,2011年 ? 史蒂夫 鲍尔默(steve ballmer):不要激情,要有韧性 ? 激情是对某件事物产生兴奋的能力,而控制力和韧性则是保持这种兴奋的能力。如果你考察一下我们这个行业的那些创业公司,你会发现它们大多数都失败了。如果你再考察一下那些获得成功的公司,比如微软、苹果、谷歌以及facebook,凡是你能叫出名字的,它们都经历过困难时期。你取得了一些成功,你也撞了几回南墙,你为新的点子和创新尝试新的途径,但未能成功,这时候决定事业成败的就是,你有多顽强,你有多大的控制力,你有多乐观以及你有多少韧性。——南加州大学,2011年 ? 拉里 佩奇(larry page):追寻伟大的梦想,你不会遇到竞争 ? 我认为,追寻雄心万丈的梦想通常更加容易,我知道这听起来完全是一派胡言。不过,既然没有别的人疯狂到会做这件事情,你就没有竞争对手了。达到这种疯狂程度的人是如此之少,以至于我感觉自己跟他们都认识。他们像狗群一样漫游,像胶水一样相互亲近,这些最优秀的人乐于接受艰巨的挑战,这就是在谷歌发生的事情。——密歇根大学,2009年 ? 埃里克 施密特(eric schmidt):不要刻意制定计划 ? 不要刻意制定计划,那些有关计划的东西,你们可以扔掉了。在我看来,一切都关乎机遇和争取到自己的运气。如果你观察那些最成功的人士,你会发现,他们工作努力并充分利用了机遇,但他们并不知道那些机遇会降临到自己头上。你无法为创新制定计划,你也无法为发明制定计划。你所能做的就是,尽自己最大的努力呆在正确的地方,并随时准备着。——卡内基-梅隆大学,2009年
? 埃里 布罗德(eli broad):胆小成不了大事 ? 从没有一个人是靠着小心翼翼、羞怯或讲道理赚到百万美元财富的。在我产生放弃注册会计师的职业生涯而成为住房建筑商的疯狂念头时,我才22岁并刚刚结婚,并且对建筑一窍不通。但有时候,最疯狂的想法能够带来最丰厚的回报。1953年,我冒险开始建造不带地下室的住宅楼——这在中西部是史无前例的——因为这种住宅的月供要比大多数人所付的房租更低。——加州大学洛杉矶分校艺术和建筑学院,2006年 ? 皮埃尔 奥米迪亚(pierre omidyar):有备无患 ? 要真正做到有备无患,你需要调整定位来制定一些备选方案,这样当机会之门洞开时,你就能近水楼台先得月。在很大程度上,生活跟软件程序一样都是线性的。我们都面对着这样一种诱惑,即把过去定格并投射到未来当中。但未来并不总是沿着一条直线发展,所以,作为一名软件工程师,你要学会在设计中融入一定的灵活性:避免被单一的解决方案局限,建立一个适用于多种用途的平台。——塔夫斯大学,2002年 ? 老罗斯 佩罗(ross perot, sr。):制定你的十年规划 ? 你们这一代人比上代人有更多的十年用来规划,你们很多人应该预期自己在八九十岁时仍然拥有生产力。当你们到达那个点时,我建议你们想一想怎样为国家服务,以及怎样回馈社会。而在20岁出头时,我建议你们去周游和探索这个世界,去认识这个星球的居民并表达对他们的敬意。去冒险吧,去认识你自己,发现你自己真正的激情所在,然后,我希望你们把学到的东西都带回来。——南卫理公会大学,2006年 ? 特德 特纳(ted turner):早睡早起,拼命工作,并且极力宣传 ? 当我被反复问及,?你的成功秘诀是什么??我都会这样回答:“早睡早起,拼命工作,并且极力宣传。”——蒙大拿州立大学北分校,2011年 ? 雷德 霍夫曼(reid hoffman):逆势而动,做正确的事 ? 始终进行创造性和大胆的思考,你在哪里可以看到一个巨大的机会?你觉得哪些事物将发生变化?你能看到哪些别人看不到的东西?成为一名成功的企业家,部分诀窍在于逆势而动并且做正确的事。这两者特别重要,因为如果大家都看到没有市场机会,那你逆势而为就不存在阻碍,但接着你必须确保自己的判断是正确的。

美国名人毕业典礼演讲精华素材
盘点美国名人毕业典礼演讲,提炼其中最为精华的部分。这几位美国名人的励志演讲至今仍然振聋发聩。小编为你分享了美国名人毕业典礼演讲精华素材,希望能够帮到你。美国名人毕业典礼演讲精华素材篇1
1963年,肯尼迪总统在美国大学演讲
“人与人之间最基本的联系就在于我们都生活在同一个小小的星球上。我们都呼吸着同一片空气,我们都关注孩子的未来,我们也都终将逝去。”
不得不说,这个演讲在当时的背景下有着更为深远的影响,因为就在几个月前,美国刚刚结束了与前苏联的古巴导弹
危机,那时的核战争始终是一个极大的威胁。肯尼迪总统利用这个演讲的场合向全世界发表了一篇关于和平的宣言。他甚至为这篇演讲精心准备了一个月之久,但是由于担心自己安抚式的语调会遭到国防部官员的反对,因此所有的准备都是秘密完成的。
肯尼迪总统希望美国人重新去思考他们的态度:
“和平对很多人来说可能就是天方夜谭,并不真实。但其实这种想法很危险,是失败主义者的信条,它最后的结论只有一个——失败是必然。而我们不需要接受这种观念,在我们两个国家的人民拥有的一切共性里,没有什么比对战争的憎恶更重要的了。
肯尼迪宣布他将和前苏联总理尼基塔·赫鲁晓夫以及英国首相哈罗德·麦克米伦共同就《全面禁止核试验条约》的相关问题进行商榷,他还承诺只要其他国家不首开核试验的先河,美国也绝不会进一步发展核试验。
在演讲之后的几天内,华盛顿和克里姆林宫之间就开设了一条电话专线。并且在演讲结束之后的两个月,即1963年8月5日,美国与前苏联、英国共同签署了《受限制核试验公约》,可以说这是在全面裁军之后的又一重大突破。美国名人毕业典礼演讲精华素材篇2
1997年,冯内古特在麻省理工学院演讲
“科学家们证明防晒霜的确让人们长期受益,而我接下来的建议却没有什么根据,只是基于我自己曲折的人生经历。”
这段演讲最后却成为近年来最受欢迎的毕业演讲之一,其中不乏一些珍贵的内容,比如“留下旧情书、扔掉旧账单、去了解父母、去享受旅行” 等等。
著名的美国小说家库尔特·冯内古特确实这样说过吗?这些给将在1997年6月毕业的麻省理工的毕业生们提出的建议,睿智而简单,仅仅在几天之内就通过电子邮件的转发而闻名世界。
然而这篇演讲却不是出自库尔特
之手,更不用说站在麻省理工毕业典礼的讲台上将之分享。事实上,1997年真正站在演讲台上的是当时的联合国秘书长科菲·安南,他鼓励学生去追求一种多边外交的处事方式,而不是去纠结自己的旧情书。
最终事实证明,这段演讲甚至都不能称之为一段真正的演讲,而是源于一篇由Mary Schmich刊登在《芝加哥论坛报》的专栏文章,冯内古特自己都说“这是一篇机智的好文,但是却不是出自我之手。”当然了,即便如此也完全不能阻止这篇文章和冯内古特一样享有盛名。
一年之内,“防晒霜”就在澳大利亚还被改编成热门单曲,在英国和美国的100首最热单曲的排行榜上分别位于第一和第45位,Schmich还就此出了本书。美国名人毕业典礼演讲精华素材篇3
1969年,希拉里在韦尔斯利学院演讲
“每一次抗议,每一场反对,无论是一篇学术论文还是贴在停车场的一个示
范说明,都是为了在这个特殊的时代里大胆地烙上自己的印记。”
像这样一场正式的大型演讲,希拉里是第一次,但仍有很多地方值得称道。1969年她从韦尔斯利学院毕业,作为学生会主席,她成为了学校历史上第一个在毕业典礼上发表演讲的学生。
就在希拉里开始陈述准备好的稿子之前,她还批评了上一位演讲者、参议员爱德华·布鲁克的发言,因为他在演讲中怂恿学生反对“强制性抗议”,所谓“强制性抗议”其实就是对学生**示威的委婉表达,很显然,爱德华的矛头直指希拉里即将开始的演讲,然而对希拉里来说爱德华实在过于自满,于是她把自己的演讲稿放到一边,优雅地开始了一场高效的即兴反击。
希拉里指出:“当这个国家有%的人民生活在贫困线以下意味着什么呢?”这只是一个百分比,却道出了最为残酷的现实,我们不再关注这个社会的重建,这才是人性需要重新建构的关键。
希拉里的演讲结束,全场观众起立鼓掌,时间长达几分钟,而这只能说是她政治生涯的开始。作为希拉里·克林顿,她在政坛的地位更加不可小觑,她当过美国的第一夫人,当过参议员、国务卿,甚至成为了2016年的总统侯选人。美国名人毕业典礼演讲精华素材篇4
1998年,施莱弗在圣十字学院演讲
“永远不要指望别人在经济上支持你。”
NBC的新闻主播、肯尼迪家族的第三代成员玛丽亚·施莱弗在圣十字学院1998年的毕业典礼上发表了这篇演讲,她的言论一经发表就受到了全国的广泛关注。施莱弗提到她在演讲之前就得到了很多关于“演讲应该讲什么”的建议,最终她决定去分享“当我像你们一样坐在毕业典礼的会堂里,我最希望别人告诉我的十件事”,这十件事包括“发掘你的激情”、“不要让工作压倒你”、“女超人不存在”等等。
施莱弗用她自己在事业上和育儿
上的亲身经历来支持她的观点,她做到了用最诙谐的方式去对待生活中最艰难的时刻。
在这篇大受好评的演讲的基础上,施莱弗又出版了名为《在我走进真实世界前我最想知道的十件事》一书,这本书一经出版就迅速成为毕业礼物清单上的大热门,霎时间风靡整个校园。
在2012年,施莱弗又继续发表了她的第二次毕业演讲,她的这次发声同样掷地有声。这篇名为“停顿的力量”的演讲发表在南加州大学的毕业典礼上, 这正是她女儿的毕业典礼,她建议新的毕业生在做重大的判断和决策之前先停一停。美国名人毕业典礼演讲精华素材篇5
2005年,乔布斯在斯坦福大学
“你的时间有限,所以不要浪费时间去过别人的生活。”
即使你不是一个果粉,你也应该听一听乔布斯2005年在斯坦福大学上的演讲。
乔布斯调侃说这篇演讲是他离大
学毕业最近的一次,他还分享了三个改变他生活的重要转折点——这些都可能成为其他人的指路明灯。他讲述了他是如何决定从大学辍学,这段经历又是如何激发了他的求知欲,并且最终如何成为他将苹果电脑推向市场的一大助力。
接下来,乔布斯讲到他被他自己一手建立的苹果公司所抛弃,那时他曾痛苦过,也曾尴尬过,但是这次的离开却让乔布斯因祸得福,他之后建立了NeXT公司,最终因其专利技术而被苹果公司收购。
乔布斯的演讲中最为出彩的是他被诊断出癌症之后的那部分故事。有一天,由于身患一种极为罕见的胰腺癌,他被告知他的生命只剩下三到六个月,他知道这个病最终只会夺去他的生命。然而之后的活检结果显示他的癌症虽然罕见,但是可以通过手术切除。(不幸的是,这个癌症会复发,乔布斯在2011年不幸离世。)
“不要被教条所束缚,也不要盲目活在别人的思想里,不要让别人嘈杂的观念淹没了你自己内心的声音。最重要的
是鼓起勇气,从心出发,相信自己的直觉,从某种程度来说,它们才能真正让你知道你想成为什么样的人。”猜你喜欢:

BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS
Winston Churchill May 13, 1940
On Friday evening last I received from His Majesty the mission to form a new administration.It was the evident will of Parliament and the nation that this should be conceived on the broadest possible basis and that it should include all parties.I have already completed the most important part of this task.A war cabinet has been formed of five members, representing, with the Labor, Opposition and Liberals, the unity of the nation.It was necessary that this should be done in one single day on account of the extreme urgency and rigor of events.Other key positions were filled yesterday.I am submitting a further list to the King tonight.I hope to complete the appointment of principal Ministers during tomorrow.The appointment of other Ministers usually takes a little longer.I trust when Parliament meets again this part of my task will be completed and that the administration will be complete in all respects.I considered it in the public interest to suggest to the Speaker that the House should be summoned today.At the end of today’s proceedings, the adjournment of the House will be proposed until May 2l with provision for earlier meeting if need be.Business for that will be notified to M.P.’s at the earliest opportunity.I now invite the House by a resolution to record its approval of the steps taken and declare its confidence in the new government.The resolution: “That this House welcomes the formation of a government representing the united and inflexible resolve of
the nation to prosecute the war with Germany to a victorious conclusion.” To form an administration of this scale and complexity is a serious undertaking in itself.But we are in the preliminary Phase of one of the greatest battles in history.We are in action at any other points-in Norway and in Holland-and we have to be prepared in the Mediterranean.The air battle is continuing, and many preparations have to be made here at home.In this crisis I think I may be pardoned if I do not address the House at any length today, and I hope that any of my friends and colleagues or for mer colleagues who are affected by the political reconstruction will make all allowances for any lack of ceremony with which it has been necessary to act.I say to the House as I said to Ministers who have joined this government, I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind.We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering.You ask, what is our policy? I say it is to wage war by land, sea and air.War with all our might and with all the strength God has given us, and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime.That is our policy.You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word, It is victory.Victory at all costs-victory in spite of all terrors-victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.Let that be realized.No survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for the urge, the impulse of the ages, that mankind shall move forward toward his goal.I take up my task in buoyancy and hope.I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men.I feel entitled at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, “Come then, let us go forward together with our united strength.”
“熱血、汗水和眼淚”
溫斯頓·邱吉爾 1940年5月13日
上星期五晚上,我奉陛下之命,組織新的一屆政府。
按國會和國民的意願,新政府顯然應該考慮建立在盡可能廣泛的基礎上,應該相容所有的黨派。
我已經完成了這項任務的最主要的部分。戰時內閣已由五人組成,包括工黨、反對黨和自由黨,這體現了舉國團結一致。
由於事態的極端緊急和嚴峻,新閣政府須於一天之內組成,其他的關鍵崗位也於昨日安排就緒。今晚還要向國王呈報一份名單。我希望明天就能完成幾位主要大臣的任命。
其餘大臣們的任命照例得晚一些。我相信,在國會下一次召開時,任命將告完成,臻于完善。
為公眾利益著想,我建議議長今天就召開國會。今天的議程結束時,建議休會到5月21日,並準備在必要時提前開會。有關事項當會及早通知各位議員。
現在我請求國會作出決議,批准我所採取的各項步驟,啟示記錄在案,並且聲明信任新政府。決議如下:
“本國會歡迎新政府的組成,她體現了舉國一致的堅定不移的決心:對德作戰,直到最後勝利。”
組織如此規模和如此複雜的政府原本是一項重大的任務。但是我們正處於歷史上罕見的一場大戰的初始階段。我們在其他許多地點作戰--在挪威,在荷蘭,我們還必須在地中海做好準備。空戰正在繼續,而且在本土也必須做好許多準備工作。
值此危急關頭,我想,即使我今天向國會的報告過於簡略,也當能見諒。我還希望所有在這
次改組中受到影響的朋友、同僚和舊日的同僚們對必要的禮儀方面的任何不周之處能毫不介意。
我向國會表明,一如我向入閣的大臣們所表明的,我所能奉獻的唯有熱血、辛勞、眼淚和汗水我們所面臨的將是一場極其嚴酷的考驗,將是曠日持久的鬥爭和苦難。
若問我們的政策是什么?我的回答是:在陸上、海上、空中作戰。盡我們的全力,盡上帝賦予我們的全部力量去作戰,對人類黑暗、可悲的罪惡史上空前兇殘的暴政作戰。這就是我們的政策。
若問我們的目標是什么?我可以用一個詞來回答,那就是勝利。不惜一切代價,去奪取勝利--不懼一切恐怖,去奪取勝利--不論前路如何漫長、如何艱苦,去奪取勝利。因為沒有勝利就不能生存。
我們務必認識到,沒有勝利就不復有大英帝國,沒有勝利就不復有大英帝國所象徵的一切,沒有勝利就不復有多少世紀以來的強烈要求和衝動:人類應當向自己的目標邁進。
我精神振奮、滿懷信心地承擔起我的任務。我確信,大家聯合起來,我們的事業就不會遭到挫敗。
在此時此刻的危急關頭,我覺得我有權要求各方面的支援。我要說:“來吧,讓我們群策群力,並肩前進!”
宋美齡1943年在美國參議院的演講 The committee appointed by Vice president, preceded by the Secretary of the Senate(Edwin A.Halsey), and the Sergeant at Arms(Wall Doxey), and consisting of Mr.Barkley, Mr.McNary, Mr.Connally, Mr.Capper, And Mrs.Caraway, entered the Chamber at the main door and escorted Mme.Chiang Kai-shek to a seat at the desk immediately in front of the Vice President.(Mme.Chiang Kai-shek was greeted with prolonged applause, Senators and guests of the Senate rising.)The VICE PRESIDENT.Senators, distinguished guests, Mme.Chiang Kai-shek, wife of the Generalissimo of the armies of China, will now address you.[Applause] ADDRESS BY MME.CHIANG KAI-SHEK Mr.President, Members of the Senate of the United States, ladies and gentlemen, I am overwhelmed by the warmth and spontaneity of the welcome of the American people, of whom you are the representatives.I did not know that I was to speak to you today at the Senate except to say, ※How do you do? I am so very glad to see you,§ and to bring the greetings to my people to the people of America.However, just before coming here, the Vice President told me that he would like to have me say a few words to you.I am not a very good extemporaneous speaker;in fact, I am no speaker at all;but I am not so very much discouraged, because a few days ago I was at Hyde Park, and went to the President*s library.Something I saw there encouraged me, and made me feel that perhaps you will not expect overmuch of me in speaking to you extemporaneously.What do you think I saw there? I saw many things.But the one thing which interested me most of all was that in a glass case there was the first draft of tone of the President*s speeches, a second draft, and on and on up to the sixth draft.Yesterday I happened to mention this fact to the
President, and told him that I was extremely glad that he had to write so many drafts when he is such a well-known and acknowledgedly fine speaker.His reply to me was that sometimes he writes 12 drafts of a speech.So, my remarks here today, being extemporaneous, I am sure you will make allowances for me.The traditional friendship between your country and mine has a history of 160 years.I feel, and I believe that I am now the only one who feels this way, that there are a great many similarities between your people and mine, and that these similarities are the basis of our friendship.I should like to tell you a little story which will illustrate this belief.When General Doolittle and his men went to bomb Tokyo, on their return some of your boys had to bail out in the interior of China.One of them later told me that he had to mail out of his ship.And that when he landed on Chinese soil and saw the populace running toward him, he just waved his arm and shouted the only Chinese word he knew, ※Mei-kuo, Mei-kuo,§ which means ※America,§ [Applause.] Literally translated from the Chinese it means ※Beautiful country.§ This boy said that our people laughed and almost hugged him, and greeted him like a long lost brother.He further told me that the thought that he had come home when he saw our people;and that was the first time he had ever been to China.[Applause.]
I came to your country as a little girl.I know your people.I have lived with them.I spent the formative years of my life amongst your people.I speak your language, not only the language of your hearts, but also your tongue.So coming here today I feel that I am also coming home.[Applause.] I believe, however, that it is not only I who am coming home;I feel that if the Chinese people could speak to you in your own tongue, or if you could understand our tongue, they would tell you that basically and fundamentally we are fighting for the same cause [great applause];that we have identity of ideals* that the ※four freedoms,§ which your President proclaimed to the world, resound throughout our vast land as the gong of freedom, the gong of freedom of the United Nations, and the death knell of the aggressors.[Applause.] I assure you that our people are willing and eager to cooperate with you in the realization of these ideals, because we want to see to it that they do not echo as empty phrases, but become realities for ourselves, for your children, for our children*s children, and for all mankind.[Applause.] How are we going to realize these ideals? I think I shall tell you a little story which just came to my mind.As you know, China is a very old nation.We have a history of 5,000 years.When we were obliged to evacuate Hankow and go into the hinterland to carry on and continue our resistance against aggression, the Generalissimo and I passed one of our fronts, the Changsha front.One day we went in to the Heng-yang Mountains, where there are traces of a famous pavilion called ※Rub-the-mirror§ pavilion, which perhaps interest you to hear the story of that pavilion.Two thousand years ago near that spot was
an old Buddhist temple.One of the young monks went there , and all day long he sat cross-legged, with his hands clasped before him in and attitude of prayer, and murmured ※Amita-Buddha!Amita-Buddha!
Amita-Buddha!§ He murmured and chanted day after day, because he hoped that he would acquire grace.The Father Prior of that temple took a piece of brick and rubbed it against a stone hour after hour, day after day, and week after week.The little acolyte, being very young, sometimes cast his eyes around to see what the old Father Prior was doing.The old Father Prior just kept on this work of rubbing the brick against the stone.So one day the young acolyte said to him, ※Father Prior, what are you doing day after day rubbing this brick of stone?§ The Father Prior replied, ※I am trying to make a mirror out of this brick.§ The young acolyte said, ※But it is impossible to make a mirror out of a brick, Father Prior.§ ※Yes,§ said the Father Prior, ※and it is just as impossible for you to acquire grace by doing nothing except murmur &Amita-Buddha* all day long, day in and day out.§ [Applause.]
So my friends, I feel that it is necessary for us not only to have ideals and to proclaim that we have them, it is necessary that we act to implement them.[Applause.] And so to you, gentlemen of the Senate, and to you ladies and gentleman in the galleries, I say that without the active help of all of us, our leaders cannot implement these ideals.It*s up to you and to me to take to heart the lesson of ※Rub-the-Mirror§ pavilion.I thank you.[Great applause, Senators and their guests rising.]
Following her address, Mme.Chiang Kai-shek and the distinguished visitors accompanying her and the others guests of the Senate were escorted from the Chamber.新經濟的五大悖論

“Five Paradoxes of the New Economy” Wharton School of Business Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
I'm happy to be here at Wharton, traditionally a wonderful source of Merrill Lynch talent.But I'm not here on a recruiting trip.My purpose today is much broader.I'm here to talk about what I call the Five Paradoxes of the New Economy.First, I'll talk about the underlying forces behind the new economybrokerage and investment bankinga watershed event for this industry.Outdated barriers had always prevented us from offering our clients a federally insured bank account.Today we have not one but two banks, and can offer clients the full range of financial servicesto create a new company, instead of buying one.It also required a sizable global footprint.Still, scale is only part of the story.Paradox 2: In a World of Endless Choices, Reputation Matters
In the bottomless well of websites, consumers are looking for familiar names they know and trust.I think that's why no one has been able to knock Amazon from the top spot in online retailing.They are one of the only household names online.If you don't think brand matters, think about
this: It's been said that if you dismantled the Coca-Cola Company and left the managers with only the brand name, they could rebuild the entire company in under five years.On the other hand, if you left them with all their assets but took away the brand, in five years they'd be gone altogether.In the new economy, more than ever, a global brand name and a trusted reputation are indispensable.Yet in our business, it's not all about being well known.It's about how well you know your clients.Paradox 3: Age Doesn't Matterthese companies led the first wave of the New Economy.They changed the rules.They introduced new ways of thinking.They created new models for buying and selling.Ten years ago, they didn't even exist.But they didn't succeed simply because they were new.Nor should we assume, with so many dot-coms crashing, that companies are now going to succeed simply because they are established.Age doesn't matter.In the years ahead, what will matter is not only the ability to create change, but to build on it.That means not just worrying about what's next.It means having a broader vision of your entire industry, and the resources and management skills to execute it.That's why the next wave of the New Economy really won't distinguish between old and new companies, or even tech companies and manufacturers.What will matter is your ability to understand the implications of all the new things springing up around us.Let me give you some examples of how Merrill is riding that next wave.As I mentioned earlier, we're using e-commerce to change the business model for capital markets and investment banking.Recently, we joined with six other of the largest investment banks to create The Markets.com, a portal for commingled equity research, news, and market data.We also pioneered, along with other securities firms, a new trading platform for fixed income securities called BondBook.These consortia and commingled sites are perhaps the industry's most seismic shift to date.In each of these instances, the technology is impressive.But more critical is the way we're using technology to create value as the industry shifts.This requires building
relationships we previously never would have considered.Relationships, as I've suggested, can't be created by technology.They demand human capital, which brings me to my final paradox.Paradox 5: In the New Economy, the Most Satisfying Job Experiences Can Be Found in Traditional Places
Despite all the hype about the
unconventional workplace, the best place for a rewarding careeris probably going to be one of the large, global firms that some were once writing off as “behind the curve.” It's easy for me to say, of course.I started at a large financial house and 32 years later became CEO.But I believe that some of the young New Economy firms focused on attracting talent through short-term perks, rather than long-term value.You've all read about them: name your own job, 23-year-old CEOs, wear shorts to worka greater sense of professional satisfaction that is harder to come across at a struggling young start-up.Don't get me wrong.Workplace features of the new economy have been good for all of us.An improved focus on diversity, a more casual workplace, greater flexibility and faster decision-making.We're proud to have received more than our share of awards for progressive policies for telecommuting, disabled workers and working mothers, just to name a few.The diversity of our talent pool is second to none, and we work hard to create a culture that places no limits on individual achievement.But we know the most successful companies are those that offer other advantages, too, including a workplace that is both financially and intellectually rewarding.The paradoxes of the New Economy I've outlined today tell me that, at the end of the most prosperous and creative decade in American history, Merrill Lynch is better positioned than ever to be the preeminent financial management and advisory company in the world.How do we define preeminence? In five simple ways:
Client focus second to none.The leader in our chosen markets.The best managed company.The best shareholder return.During the past year, our stock price has delivered the highest return among all our major competitors.And, of course, the best place to work.Client focus second to none;the leader in chosen markets;best managed company;best shareholder return, and the best place
to work.Some might read that list and accuse us of sticking to Old World values.My response: guilty as charged.During the height of the tech boom, I think the business community and the press tended to forget what made a great company over the long term.I'd like to think that at Merrill, we never lost sight of these enduring values.Don't take my word for it.Look around.What you will find is that, in the final paradox of the New Economy, the freshest thinking is going on in places you may never have imagined.So, in conclusion, let me verbalize what should be very apparent to each of you.Dreams and aspirations have never gone out of style.My suggestion to you is, come dream with us.美國總統布希清華大學演講
President Bush Speaks at Tsinghua University
Tsinghua University
Beijing, People's Republic of China 10:35 A.M.(Local)
PRESIDENT BUSH: Vice President Hu, thank you very much for your kind and generous remarks.Thank you for welcoming me and my wife, Laura, here.(Applause.)I see she's keeping pretty good company, with the Secretary of State, Colin Powell.It's good to see you, Mr.Secretary.(Applause.)And I see my National Security Advisor, Ms.Condoleezza Rice, who at one time was the provost at Stanford University.So she's comfortable on university campuses such as this.Thank you for being here, Condi.(Applause.)I'm so grateful for the hospitality, and honored for the reception at one of China's, and the world's, great universities.This university was founded, interestingly enough, with the support of my country, to further ties between our two nations.I know how important this place is to your Vice President.He not only received his degree here, but more importantly, he met his gracious wife here.(Laughter.)
I want to thank the students for giving me the chance to meet with you, the chance to talk a little bit about my country and answer some of your questions.The standards and reputation of this university are known around the world, and I know what an achievement it is to be here.So, congratulations.(Applause.)I don't know if you know this or not, but my wife and I have two daughters who are in college, just like you.One goes to the University of Texas.One goes to Yale.They're twins.And we are proud of our daughters, just like I'm sure your parents are proud of you.My visit to China comes on an important anniversary, as the Vice President
mentioned.Thirty years ago this week, an American President arrived in China on a trip designed to end decades of estrangement and confront centuries of
suspicion.President Richard Nixon showed the world that two vastly different
governments could meet on the grounds of common interest, in the spirit of mutual respect.As they left the airport that day, Premier Zhou Enlai said this to President Nixon: “Your handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world--25 years of no communication.”
During the 30 years since, America and China have exchanged many handshakes of friendship and commerce.And as we have had more contact with each other, the citizens of both countries have gradually learned more about each other.And that's important.Once America knew China only by its history as a great and enduring civilization.Today, we see a China that is still defined by noble traditions of family, scholarship, and honor.And we see a China that is becoming one of the most dynamic and creative societies in the world--as demonstrated by the knowledge and potential right here in this room.China is on a rising path, and America welcomes the emergence of a strong and peaceful and prosperous China.(Applause.)
As America learns more about China, I am concerned that the Chinese people do not always see a clear picture of my
country.This happens for many reasons, and some of them of our own making.Our movies and television shows often do not portray the values of the real America I know.Our successful businesses show a strength of American commerce, but our spirit, community spirit, and contributions to each other are not always visible as monetary success.Some of the erroneous pictures of America are painted by others.My friend, the Ambassador to China, tells me some Chinese textbooks talk of Americans of “bullying the weak and repressing the poor.” Another Chinese textbook, published just last year, teaches that special agents of the FBI are used to “repress the working people.” Now, neither of these is true--and while the words may be leftovers from a previous era, they are misleading and they're harmful.In fact, Americans feel a special responsibility for the weak and the poor.Our government spends billions of dollars to provide health care and food and housing for those who cannot help themselves--and even more important, many of our citizens contribute their own money and time to help those in need.American compassion also stretches way beyond our borders.We're the number one provider of humanitarian aid to people in need throughout the world.And as for the men and women of the FBI and law enforcement, they're working people;they, themselves, are working people who devote their lives to fighting crime and corruption.My country certainly has its share of problems, no question about that.And we
have our faults.Like most nations we're on a long journey toward achieving our own ideals of equality and justice.Yet there's a reason our nation shines as a beacon of hope and opportunity, a reason many throughout the world dream of coming to America.It's because we're a free nation, where men and women have the opportunity to achieve their dreams.No matter your background or your circumstance of birth, in America you can get a good education, you can start your own business, you can raise a family, you can worship freely, and help elect the leaders of your community and your country.You can support the policies of our government, or you're free to openly disagree with them.Those who fear freedom sometimes argue it could lead to chaos, but it does not, because freedom means more than every man for himself.Liberty gives our citizens many rights, yet expects them to exercise important responsibilities.Our liberty is given direction and purpose by moral character, shaped in strong families, strong communities, and strong religious institutions, and overseen by a strong and fair legal system.My country's greatest symbol to the world is the Statue of Liberty, and it was designed by special care.I don't know if you've ever seen the Statue of Liberty, but if you look closely, she's holding not one object, but two.In one hand is the familiar torch we call the “light of liberty.” And in the other hand is a book of law.We're a nation of laws.Our courts are honest and they are independent.The President--me--I can't tell the courts how to rule, and neither can any other member of the executive or legislative branch of government.Under our law, everyone stands equal.No one is above the law, and no one is beneath it.All political power in America is limited and it is temporary, and only given by the free vote of the people.We have a Constitution, now two centuries old, which limits and balances the power of the three branches of our government, the judicial branch, the legislative branch, and the executive branch, of which I'm a part.Many of the values that guide our life in America are first shaped in our families, just as they are in your country.American moms and dads love their children and work hard and sacrifice for them, because we believe life can always be better for the next generation.In our families, we find love and learn responsibility and character.And many Americans voluntarily devote part of their lives to serving other people.An amazing number--nearly half of all adults in America--volunteer time every week to make their communities better by mentoring children, or by visiting the sick, or caring for the elderly, or helping with thousands of other needs and causes.This is one of the great strengths of my country.People take responsibility for helping others, without being told, motivated by their good hearts and often by their faith.America is a nation guided by
faith.Someone once called us “a nation with the soul of a church.” This may interest you--95 percent of Americans say they believe in God, and I'm one of them.When I met President Jiang Zemin in Shanghai a few months ago, I had the honor of sharing with him how faith changed my life and how faith contributes to the life of my country.Faith points to a moral law beyond man's law, and calls us to duties higher than material gain.Freedom of religion is not something to be feared, it's to be welcomed, because faith gives us a moral core and teaches us to hold ourselves to high standards, to love and to serve others, and to live responsible lives.If you travel across America--and I hope you do some day if you haven't been there--you will find people of many different ethic backgrounds and many different
faiths.We're a varied nation.We're home to 2.3 million Americans of Chinese ancestry, who can be found working in the offices of our corporations, or in the Cabinet of the President of the United States, or skating for the America Olympic
team.Every immigrant, by taking an oath of allegiance to our country, becomes just as just as American as the President.America shows that a society can be vast and it can be varied, yet still one country, commanding the allegiance and love of its people.And all these qualities of America were widely on display on a single day,September the 11th, the day when terrorists, murderers, attacked my nation.American policemen and firefighters, by the hundreds, ran into burning towers in desperation to save their fellow citizens.Volunteers came from everywhere to help with rescue efforts.Americans donated blood and gave money to help the families of victims.America had prayer services all over our country, and people raised flags to show their pride and unity.And you need to know, none of this was ordered by the government;it happened spontaneously, by the initiative of free people.Life in America shows that liberty, paired with law is not to be feared.In a free society, diversity is not disorder.Debate is not strife.And dissent is not revolution.A free society trusts its citizens to seek greatness in themselves and their country.It was my honor to visit China in 1975--some of you weren't even born then.It shows how old I am.(Laughter.)And a lot has changed in your country since then.China has made amazing progress--in openness and enterprise and economic freedom.And this progress previews China'a great potential.China has joined the World Trade Organization, and as you live up to its obligations, they inevitably will bring changes to China's legal system.A modern China will have a consistent rule of law to govern commerce and secure the rights of its people.The new China your generation is building will need the profound wisdom of your traditions.The lure of materialism
challenges our society--challenges society in our country, and in many successful countries.Your ancient ethic of personal and family responsibility will serve you well.Behind China's economic success today are talented, brilliant and energetic people.In the near future, those same men and women will play a full and active role in your government.This university is not simply turning out specialists, it is preparing citizens.And citizens are not spectators in the affairs of their country.They are participants in its future.Change is coming.China is already having secret ballot and competitive elections at the local level.Nearly 20 years ago, a great Chinese leader, Deng Xiaoping, said this--I want you to hear his words.He said that China would eventually expand democratic elections all the way to the national level.I look forward to that day.Tens of millions of Chinese today are relearning Buddhist, Taoist, and local religious traditions, or practicing Christianity, Islam, and other faiths.Regardless of where or how these believers worship, they're no threat to public order;in fact, they make good citizens.For centuries, this country has had a tradition of religious tolerance.My prayer is that all persecution will end, so that all in China are free to gather and worship as they wish.All these changes will lead to a stronger, more confident China--a China that can astonish and enrich the world, a China that your generation will help create.This is one of the most exciting times in the history of your country, a time when even the grandest hopes seem within your reach.My nation offers you our respect and our friendship.Six years from now, athletes from America and around the world will come to your country for the Olympic games.And I'm confident they will find a China that is becoming a da guo, a leading nation, at peace with its people and at peace with the world.Thank you for letting me come.(Applause.)ON HIS SEVENTIETH BIRTHDAY
George Bernard Shaw July 26, 1926
Of late years the public have been trying to tackle me in every way they possibly can, and failing to make anything of it they have turned to treating me Bs a great man.This is a dreadful fate to over-take anybody.There has been a distinct attempt to do it again now, and for that reason I absolutely decline to say anything about the celebration of my seventieth birthday.But when the Labor Party, my old friends the Labor Party, invited me here I knew that l should be all right.Now, however, we have built up a constitutional Party.We have built it up on a socialistic basis.My friend, Mr.Sidney Webb, Mr.Macdonald and myself said definitely at the beginning that what we had
got to do was to make the Socialist Party a constitutional party to which any respectable God-fearing man could belong without the slightest compromise of his respectability.We got rid of all those traditional that is why Governments in the present day are more afraid of us than they were of any of the Radical people.Our position is a perfectly simple one and we have the great advantage of understanding our position.We oppose socialism to capitalism.According to the capitalists, there will be a guara11tee to the world that every man in tile country would get a job.They didn't contend it would be a well-paid job, because if it was well paid a man would save up enough one week to stop working the next week, and they were determined to keep a man working the whole time on a bare subsistence wageafter making sure he has paid for them first.They are giving capitalists subsidies and making all sorts of regulations that are breaking up their own system.All the time they are doing it, and we are telling them it is breaking up, they don't
understand.We say in criticism of capitalism: Your system has never kept its promises for one single day since it was promulgated.Our production is ridiculous.We are producing eighty horsepower motor cars when many more houses should be built.We are producing most extravagant luxuries while children starve.You have stood production on its head.Instead of beginning with the things the nation needs most, you are beginning at just the opposite end.We say distribution has become so glaringly ridiculous that there are only two people out of the 47,000,000 people in this country who approve of the present system of distribution-one is the Duke of Northumberland and the other is Lord Banbury.We are opposed to that theory.Socialism, which is perfectly clear and unmistakable, says the thing you have got to take care of is your distribution.We have to begin with that, and private property, if it stands in the way of good distribution, has got to go.A man who holds public property must hold it on the pub1ic condition on which, for instance, I carry my walking stick.I am not al1owed to do what I like with it.I must not knock you on the head with it.We say that if distribution goes wrong, everything else goes wrong-religion, morals-government.And we say, therefore(this is the whole meaning of our socialism}, we must begin with distribution and take all the necessary steps.I think we are keeping it in our minds because our business is to take care of the distribution of wealth in the worId1 and I tell you, as I have told you be fore, that I don't think there are two men, or perhaps one man, in our 47,000,000 who approves of the existing distribution of wealth.I will go even further and say that you will not find a single person in the whole of the civilized world who agrees with the existing system of the distribution of wealth.It has been reduced to a blank absurdity.I think the day will come when we will be able to make the distinction between us and the capitalists.We must get certain leading ideas before the people.We should announce that we are not going in for what was the old-fashioned idea of redistribution, but the redistribution of income.Let it always be a question of income.I have been very happy here to night.I entirely understand the distinction made by our Chairman to night when he said you hold me in social esteem and a certain amount of personal affection.I am not a sentimental man, but l am not 1nsensible to all that.I know the value of all tl1at, and it gives me, now that 1 have come to the age of seventy(it will not occur again and I am saying it for the first time), a great fee1ing of pleasure that l can say what a good many people can't say.在七十壽辰宴會上的講話 喬治·蕭伯納
1926年7月26日
近幾年來,公眾輿論想方設法對我發難,在一無所獲之後,又轉而把我捧為偉人。不管誰碰上這種事都是可怕的災難。現在,顯然又有人想故伎重演。因此,對於慶祝我70壽辰的活動,我完全拒絕發表任何意見。不過,當我的工党老朋友們請我到這裏來時,我知道不會有麻煩。
不管怎樣,我們現在已經建立了一個立憲黨,我們已經把它建立在社會主義的基礎之上。我和我的朋友西德尼·韋布先生及麥克唐納先生一開始就明確說過,我們必須做的就是把社會黨變成一個擁護憲法的黨,使任何可敬的、虔誠的人都能在個人尊嚴絲毫不受侵犯的情況下加入這個黨。我們革除了陳規陋習,這就是為什麼比起任何持激進觀點的人來,政府目前更怕我們。
我們的立場是非常簡單明確的,我們的極大優勢在於理解自己的立場。我們用社會主義來反對資本主義。
按照資本家的觀點,完全可以保證這個國家人人都能得到一份職業。他們不主張那份職業工資很高,因為如果工資很高,一個星期就可以攢下足夠的錢,下個星期就不必工作了。他們決心以僅能糊口的工資使人們始終不停地工作,而他們自己則分享著一份資本增益。
他們說,資本主義不僅為工人提供了上述保證,而且,由於確保鉅額財富掌握在一個人數很少的階級手中,這些人不論願意與否都會把錢積攢下來,並且不得不用於投資。這就是資本主義,而我們的政府卻總是妨礙資本主義。政府既不為一個人提供工作,又不讓他挨
餓,而是在肯定他已經為得到救濟而先付過錢
之後,給他一點救濟金。政府給資本家補助金,卻又制訂出各種破壞自己的制度的規定。政府一直在幹這樣的事。我們告訴政府這是破壞,政府卻不懂。
我們在批評資本主義時說:你們的制度自公佈以來,從未有哪一天信守過自己的諾言。我們的生產是荒唐的。需要建造更多的房屋時,我們卻在生產80馬力的汽車。孩子們正在挨餓時,我們卻在生產最豪華的奢侈品。你們把生產顛倒了。你們不先生產國民最需要的東西,卻反其道而行之。我們說分配已經變得絕頂荒謬,以致在我國四千七百萬人口中,只有兩個人贊成現行的分配制度--一個是諾森伯蘭公爵,另一個是班伯裏勳爵。
我們反對那種理論。明白無誤的社會主義理論指出,你們必須注意的問題是你們的分配我們必須由此著手,而如果私有財產妨礙公正的分配,就必須予以廢除。
掌握公共財產的人必須受到社會的制約,比如,我帶著手杖也要受社會制約。我不能拿著它隨心所欲。我不能拿它敲諸位的腦袋。我們說如果分配出了問題,一切都會出問題,包括宗教、道德、政府等等。因此,我們說(這是我們的社會主義的全部意義),我們必須從分配著手,採取一切必要的步驟。
我想我們都能銘記這一點,因為我們的任務就是要注意世界是財富的分配問題。我剛才對你們說過,現在還要對你們說,我認為在我國四千七百萬人口中,不會有兩個人,也許不會有一個人贊成現行的財富分配制度。我甚至要進一步說,你們在整個文明世界也找不出一個贊同現行財富分配制度的人。這種分配制度分配制度已經墮落為極其荒謬的東西了。
我認為,總有一天我們將能夠把自己同資
本主義者區別開來。我們必須把某些指導思想公佈於眾。我們必須宣佈,我們所為之努力的不是陳舊的再分配觀念,而是收入再分配。我們要讓再分配始終成為一個收入問題。
今晚我在這裏感到非常高興。我們今晚的主席說,你們認為我享有社會的尊敬,並頗受你們個人的喜愛。我完全理解這番褒獎。我不是一個容易動感情的人,但是這一切感動了我。我知道這一切的價值,在我年屆70的時候(人生70歲只有一次,因此我這樣說也是最後一次了),它使我能說出許許多多人不能說的話,這使我感到極大的快樂。
Bill Gates' Keynote Speech
Good morning.It's a great pleasure to be here.Today is a major milestone for Microsoft as our first Developers Conference here in China.The key partnerships we build with software developers around the world are central not only to the success of Windows but also to realize the great possibilities that PC technology provides.It's through applications of every variety that businesses will be using the personal computer as the tool of the Information Age.Microsoft has a vision for where the PC is going.And that vision says that PCs will become a central element of how companies share information inside the company.The name of that vision is, the so called Digital Nervous System(DNS), allowing companies to reduce paper work and make better decisions.The Digital Nervous System means that not only do you have the PCs
that are connected together, and not only do you have standard elements like electronic mail but also you've really thought carefully about what information is important, and so all of the processes-order taking, sales planning, personnel management, project management-all of those have been set up to take full advantage of the capabilities of the computer.Now, another major vision that Microsoft has is that writing the programs, writing the applications for these machines needs to get very easy and we need to be able to do it, so we can write programs that run across the entire Internet which is millions of machines.So this is a new approach to programming that draws on what was done previously.DNS says that developers should be able to focus on their particular task and not have to learn a lot about management of the machine resources.Great chips and systems developed by our partners who are here with us
sponsoring this event, make this all possible.And there's an incredible opportunity for developers.The applications that are written today will sell to an even larger base of machines out in the market.There is a lot that we're doing to increase the work of developers-make sure they understand where the PC is going and how tools can help them and we're even helping them now, with more and more marketing type of activities making sure they get out in with the customers.And this is something that we are just
going to increase year after year, after year.And so the overall DNS message is one about helping developers seize that opportunity by bringing together the different architectures, making things automatic and allowing this to be done in a great evolutionary fashion.And so I think it's a fantastic time to be a developer and we appreciate your being here and look forward to the opportunity to work with you more.Thank you CE
比爾·蓋茨主題演講
早上好。非常高興與大家共聚一堂。今天,在這裏舉行微軟中國第一屆開發人員大會,是微軟公司的一個重要里程碑。我們與全球軟體發展人員建立的夥伴關係不僅是微軟視窗取得成功的關鍵,而且使個人電腦技術提供的各種潛在價值成為現實。通過程式在各個領域的應用,個人電腦將成為企業在資訊時代的一個工具。
微軟對個人電腦的未來走向有一個設想。根據該設想,個人電腦將成為公司內部資訊共用的核心。這一設想的名稱就是數位神經系統(DNS),它能使公司減少書面文書工作,制定更好的決策。數位神經系統的作用不僅把個人電腦連接起來,也不僅是你將擁有類似電子郵件這樣的標準配置,而且意味著你能夠認真地考慮什麼是重要的資訊。這樣的話,諸如訂單處理、銷售計劃、人員管理以及專案管理等,所有這些過程都已經建立起來,可以全面利用電腦的功能。
微軟的另一個主要設想是把編寫應用程式這項工作變得很容易,這樣程式就可以在連接數以百萬計電腦的互聯網上運行。和以前的編
程不同,這是一個新的做法,有了DNS,開發人員可以集中精力從事其特定的任務,而且不需要學習很多機器資源管理的知識。
這一活動的主辦者之一是我們的合作夥伴,他們開發的系統再加上優異的晶片將使所有這一切成為可能。這是開發人員一次的極好機會。今天編寫的應用程式將賣給市場上更多的電腦使用者。我們正在做許多事情以增加開發人員的工作能力,確保他們理解個人電腦的走向,讓他們知道目前的工具能為他們提供什麼樣的幫助,以及讓他們參加越來越多的促銷類型的活動,使他們與顧客保持良好的關係。
這就是我們年復一年所增加的東西。發展整個DNS的目的就是通過結合不同的體系結構、實現任務自動化以及允許以一種發展的方式完成這一工作,幫助開發人員抓住機會。因此我認為,這是一個開發人員可以大展才華的時代,感謝你們的光臨並希望有機會與你們進行更多的合作。
謝謝!CE
I Have a Dream
I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the 1)Emancipation Proclamation.This momentous 2)decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been 3)seared in the flames of 4)withering injustice.It came as a joyous
daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free.One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the 5)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 6)languishing in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land.So we have come here today to dramatize the shameful condition.In a sense we've 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 promissory note to which every American was to 7)fall heir.This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the 8)inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note 9)insofar as her citizens of color are concerned.Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a 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 10)vaults of opportunity of this nation.So
we've come to cash this check-a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.It is a dream deeply rooted in the American Dream.I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up, live out the true meaning of 11)its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave-owners, will they be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.I have a dream, that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state 12)sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an 13)oasis of freedom and justice.I have a dream, that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character, I have a dream today.I have a dream that one day down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of 14)interposition and 15)nullification, one day right down in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.I have a dream today.I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low;the rough places will be made plain;and the 16)crooked places will be made straight;and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all 17)flesh shall see it together.This is our hope.So let freedom ring from the 18)prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York.Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania.Let freedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado.Let freedom ring from the 19)curvaceous slopes of California.But not only that, let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia.Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee.Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi, from every mountainside.Let freedom ring and when this happens, when we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every 20)hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “Free at last, free at last, thank God almighty, we are free at last.” CE
我有一個夢想
今天,我很高興能夠參加這次我國有史以來為爭取自由而舉行的最偉大的示威集會。
一百年前,一位美國偉人簽署了《解放黑奴宣言》,現在我們就站在他紀念像投下的影子
裏。這項重要法令的頒佈,就像是高大的燈塔,給千千萬萬在非正義的烈焰中煎熬的黑奴帶來了希望,它猶如結束囚室中漫漫長夜的一束歡樂的曙光。
然而,一百年後的今天,黑人依然沒有獲得自由。一百年後的今天,黑人依然悲慘地蹣跚於種族隔離和種族歧視的枷鎖之下。一百年後的今天,黑人依然生活在物質富裕的汪洋大海中的貧困孤島之上。一百年後的今天,黑人依然在美國社會的陰暗角落裏艱難掙扎,在自己的國土上受到放逐。所以,我們今天到這裏來,把這駭人聽聞的事實公諸於眾。
從某種意義上說,我們來到我們的首都是為了兌現一張支票。我們共和國的締造者在擬寫《憲法》和《獨立宣言》時,就簽署了一張每一個美國人都能繼承的期票。這張期票保證所有人-不論白人還是黑人-都享有不可剝奪的生存權、自由權和追求幸福的權利。
顯然,就有色公民而言,美國並沒有兌付這張期票。美國不但沒有承擔這項神聖的義務,反而開給黑人一張空頭支票-一張蓋著“資金不足”印戳被退回的支票。
但我們不相信正義的銀行已經破產,我們不相信這個國家龐大的機會寶庫會發生資金不足的情況。因此,我們來要求兌現這張支票-一張見票即付,能為我們兌現自由財富和正義保障的支票。
朋友們,今天我要告訴你們:儘管當前和將
來還會有許多困難挫折,我仍然懷有一個夢想。這是一個深深紮根於美國夢中的夢想。我夢想有一天這個國家能夠站立起來,實現其立國信條的真諦:“我們認為這些真理不言而喻:所有的人生來就是平等的。”
我夢想有一天,在佐治亞州的紅色山岡上,昔日奴隸的兒子將能夠和昔日奴隸主的兒子同席而坐,共敘兄弟情誼。我夢想有一天,甚至連密西西比州這樣一個因充斥著不公和壓迫而酷熱難當的荒漠之洲,也將變成自由和正義的綠洲。
我夢想有一天,我的四個孩子將在一個不是以他們的膚色,而是以他們的品格優劣來評價他們的國度裏生活。今天我有一個夢想。
我夢想有一天,儘管阿拉巴馬州種族主義者猖獗,儘管該州州長現在仍然滿口異議,拒絕執行聯邦法令,但有朝一日,那裏的黑人兒童將能與白人兒童情同骨肉,攜手並進。我今天有一個夢想。
我夢想有一天,深谷彌合,高山夷平,崎嶇化坦途,曲徑變通衢,上帝的光輝顯現,讓所有人類一齊瞻仰。這就是我們的希望。
那麼,讓自由之聲響徹新罕布希州的巍巍山巔!讓自由之聲響徹紐約的崇山峻嶺!讓自由之聲響徹賓夕法尼亞州的阿勒格尼雄峰!讓自由之聲響徹科羅拉多州冰雪覆蓋的洛基山脈!讓自由之聲響徹加利福尼亞州蜿蜒的群峰!不僅如此,還要讓自由之聲響徹佐治亞州的石嶺!讓自由之聲響徹田納西州的瞭望山!讓自由之聲響徹密西西比的每個丘陵,每座角落!當我們讓自由之聲響起來,讓自由之聲響徹每一個大小村莊,每一個州和每一個城市,我們將能夠加速那一天的到來。到那時,上帝的所有兒女,黑人和白人,猶太人和非猶太人,耶穌教徒和天主教徒,都將攜手同唱那首古老的黑人靈歌:“終於自由啦!終於自由啦!感謝全能的上帝,我們終於自由啦!” 21
第五篇:名人演讲
正视缺点
尊敬的老师、亲爱的同学们:
大家好!
今天我要演讲的主题是:正视缺点。今天我要演讲的名言是:无论你跑多远,有些恶魔你总摆脱不了。这句话是尼古拉斯·凯奇在《恶灵骑士》中所扮演的强尼·布雷茨所说的。在别人看来,这似乎很荒唐:拿电影中的台词来当做自己的座右铭,但你听了我后面的演讲之后,就会明白这其中的道理了。
无论你跑多远,有些恶魔你总摆脱不了。这句话的含义是:无论你怎样躲避、用什么方法躲避,都无法躲开自己自身的缺点或不足。细细品味这句话,你会发现其实这句话告诉我们:我们要是想进步,就必须正视自己的缺点并及时的改正它。如果我们只会不断的躲避自身的缺点,我们就将只能原地踏步而不会有一丁点儿进步。
就拿我的政治说吧,在刚接触这门科目的时候,我觉得这门科目十分的无聊,于是便变着法子去躲避政治这门科,可结果呢?只是使我的政治成绩越来越差。后来我读到了这句名言后,我猛然醒悟过来:我必须重视政治。再加上我妈妈的指导,我对政治认真了起来,我的政治成绩也慢慢提高了。
希望大家听了我的演讲后,能正视自己的缺点并积极改正,使我们13班更上一层楼!我的演讲完了,谢谢大家!
