在柏林墙下的演说

美国总统约翰.F.肯尼迪1963年6月25日在柏林墙位于勃兰登堡门的关口前（西柏林）作出的演讲。以下为英文原版

Two thousand years ago the proudest boast was “civis Romanus sum.” Today, in the world of freedom, the proudest boast is “Ich bin ein Berliner.”

There are many people in the world who really don't understand, or say they don't, what is the 2000 great issue between the free world and the Communist world.Let them come to Berlin.There are some who say that communism is the wave of the future.Let them come to Berlin.And there are some who say in Europe and elsewhere we can work with the Communists.Let them come to Berlin.And there are even a few who say that it is true that communism is an evil system, but it permits us to make economic progress.Lass' sie nach Berlin kommen.Let them come to Berlin.Freedom has many difficulties and democracy is not perfect, but we have

never had to put a wall up to keep our people in, to prevent them from leaving us.I want to say, on behalf of my countrymen, who live many miles away on the other side of the Atlantic, who are far distant from you, that they take the greatest pride that they have been able to share with you, even from a distance, the story of the last 18 years.I know of no town, no city, that has been besieged for 18 years that still lives with the vitality and the force, and the hope and the determination of the city of West Berlin.While the wall is the most obvious and vivid demonstration of the failures of the Communist system, for all the world to see, we take no satisfaction in it, for it is, as your Mayor has said, an offense not only against

history but an offense against humanity, separating families, dividing husbands and wives and brothers and sisters, and dividing a people who wish to be joined together.What is true of this city is true of Germany--real, lasting peace in Europe can never be assured as long as one German out of four is denied the elementary right of free men, and that is to make a free choice.In 18 years of peace and good faith, this generation of Germans has earned the right to be free, including the right to unite their families and their nation in lasting peace, with good will to all people.You live in a defended island of freedom, but your life is part of the main.So let me ask you as I close, to lift your eyes beyond the dangers of today, to the hopes of tomorrow, beyond the freedom merely of this city of Berlin, or your country of Germany, to the advance of freedom everywhere, beyond the wall to the day of peace with justice, beyond yourselves and ourselves to all mankind.Freedom is indivisible, and when one man is enslaved, all are not free.When all are free, then we can look forward to that day when this city will be joined as one

and this country and this great Continent of Europe in a peaceful and hopeful globe.When that day finally comes, as it will, the people of West Berlin can take sober satisfaction in the fact that they were in the front lines for almost two decades.All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin, and, therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words “Ich bin ein Berliner.”

第二篇：肯尼迪《柏林墙下的演说》（xiexiebang推荐）

“自由有许多困难，民主亦非完美，然而我们从未建造一堵墙把我们的人民关在里面，不准他们离开我们。” ——肯尼迪《柏林墙下的演说》1963年6月25日于西德市政厅柏林墙前。

肯尼迪《柏林墙下的演说》

二千年以前，最自豪的夸耀是Civitas Romanus sum（我是罗马公民），今天，自由世界最自豪的夸耀是Ich bin ein Berliner（我是一个柏林人）。世界上有许多人确实不懂，或者说他们不明白什么是自由世界和共产主义世界的根本分歧。让他们来柏林吧。有些人说，共产主义是未来的潮流。让他们来柏林吧。有些人说，我们能在欧洲或其他地方与共产党人合作。让他们来柏林吧。甚至有那么几个人说，共产主义确是一种邪恶的制度，但它可以使我们取得经济发展。“Lasst sie nach Berlin kommen.”（让他们到柏林看看）自由有许多困难，民主亦非完美，然而我们从未建造一堵墙把我们的人民关在里面，不准他们离开我们。我愿意我的同胞们——他们与你们远隔千里住在大西洋彼岸——说，他们为能在远方与你们共有过去十八年的经历感到莫大的骄傲。我不知道还有哪一个城镇或都市被围困十八年仍葆有西柏林的这种生机、力量、希望和决心。全世界都看到，柏林墙最生动最明显地表现出一种失败。但我们对此并不感到称心如意，因为柏林墙既是对历史也是对人性的冒犯，它拆散家庭，造成妻离子散骨肉分离，把希冀统一的一个民族分成两半。这个城市的事实也用于整个德国——只要四个德国人中有一个被剥夺了自由人的基本权利，即自由选择的权利，那么欧洲真正持久的和平便绝无可能实现。经过保持和平与善意的十八年，这一代德国人终于赢得自由的权利，包括在持久和平中善所有的人民，实现家庭团聚和民族统一的权利。你们住在受到保护的一座自由之岛上，但你们的生活是大海的一部分。因此让我在结束讲话时请求你们抬起目光，超越今日的危险看到明天的希望；超越这道墙看到正义的生平来临的一天；超越你们自己和我们自己看到全人类。自由是不可分割的，只要一人被奴役，所有的人都不自由。当所有的人都自由了，那时我们便能期待这一天的到来：在和平与希望的光辉中这座城市获得统一，这个国家获得统一，欧洲大陆获得统一。当这一天最终来临---它必将来临---时，西柏林人民将能对这一点感到欣慰：几乎二十年时间里他们站在第一线。一切自由人，不论他们住在何方，皆是柏林市民，所以作为一个自由人，我为“Ich bin ein Berliner”这句话感到自豪。

孟德斯鸠语录：

不受约束的权力必然腐败，绝对的权力导致绝对的腐败；道德约束不了权力，权力只有用权力来约束。

我们接受3种教育，一种来自父母，一种来自教师，另一种来自社会。第3种教育和前两种教育完全背道而驰。共和国家的教育应当是提高人们的心智，而专制国家的教育所寻求的降低人们的心智。

自由就是做法律所许可的一切事情的权力。

造化既然在人间造成不同程度的强弱，也常用破釜沉舟的斗争，使弱者不亚于强者。

有益于身而有害于家的事情，我不干；有益于家而有害于国的事情，我不干。

美必须干干净净，清清白白，在形象上如此，在内心中更是如此。

让我们把不名誉作为刑罚最重的部分吧！

礼貌使有礼貌的人喜悦，也使那些受人以礼貌相待的人们喜悦。

我所谓共和国里的美德，是指爱祖国、也就是爱平等而言。这并不是一种道德上的美德，也不是一种基督教的美德，而是政治上的美德。

在一个人民的国家中还要有一种推动的枢纽，这就是美德。

美德本身也需要限制。

奢侈总是跟随着淫乱，淫乱总是跟随着奢侈。谦虚是不可缺少的品德。

啊！夸奖的话，出于自己口中，那是多么乏味！母爱是世间最伟大的力量。

衡量真正的品德，是看他在知道没有人发觉的时候做些什么。

一切权利不受约束，必将腐败。

言语并不构成罪体，它们仅仅栖息在思想里，有时候沉默不言比一切语言表示的意义还更多。所以无论什么地方如果制定了言语是罪体这么一条法律，那么，不但不再有自由民主可言，甚至连自由民主的影子也看不见了呀！

第三篇：1963肯尼迪柏林墙下的演说(完整版)简介双...

译文：

我深感荣幸，能受尊敬的市长阁下之邀来到柏林，你们的市长凭借西柏林的奋斗精神享誉全球。我亦倍感荣幸，能在总理阁下的陪同下访问联邦德国，贵国总理长久以来推动德国民主、自由和繁荣的努力有目共睹。我更感荣幸，能与克莱将军一道来访，这位我杰出的同侪曾在此与柏林共度难关，而且，今后倘有需要，我们必定赴汤蹈火万死不辞！

两千年前，一个时代最骄傲的宣言是：“我是罗马公民。”今天，在自由世界，震彻寰宇的最强音是：“Ich bin ein Berliner.我是一个柏林人！”

这世上有许多人，他们不理解，或者说根本就不明白自由世界和共产主义国度的天差地别——那就让他们来柏林吧。这世上有许多人，他们称共产主义是未来的潮流——那就让他们来柏林吧。这世上还有许多人，他们在欧洲，在全世界宣称，我们可以和共产主义合作——那就让他们来柏林吧！这世上甚至有人，他们说，的确，共产主义是邪恶的轴心，但共产主义却能促进我们的经济——Lass’ sie nach Berlin kommen！让他们来柏林吧！

自由常经磨难，民主亦非坦途。但我们绝无必要竖起高墙，禁锢人民，囚之圈之，患其叛离。今天，我代表美国人民大声疾呼，纵然我们分隔大洋两岸，纵然我们相距千里之遥，美国人民仍为能与你们分享过去这18年的峥嵘岁月而感到无限荣光！有史以来，没有哪个城镇或城市在被包围了18年后仍能如今天的西柏林一样，生机勃勃，蒸蒸日上，前途似锦，团结如钢！柏林墙就是共产主义体制失败最生动的证据。但我们对此并不满足，因为正如你们市长所说，柏林墙不仅是开历史的倒车，更是对人性的戕害。它让家庭分离，妻离子散，让手足异处，挚友失群。

对于柏林，世界是如此，对于德国，世界也是如此——只要尚有四分之一的德国人不能享有一个自由人最基本的权利，即自由选择的权利，所谓欧洲真正、持久的和平就永远只是纸上谈兵。在经历了18年的和平与信仰之后，这一代德国人已经挣得了享有自由的权利，挣得了在对人类怀着美好愿景下凝聚家国，拥享和平的权利。你们居住在一个固若金汤的自由之岛中，但你们的生命仍与岛外的千千万万人融为一体。所以，在我的讲话结束之前，让我请求你们抬起双眼，透过今天的危险，看到明天的希望，透过仅仅存在于柏林这座城市、或者你们的祖国德国的自由，看到遍地盛开自由之花，透过这堵墙，看到和平与正义到来的一天，透过你我之躯，看到全人类。

自由不可分割。倘一人为奴隶，则举世无自由。当我们都得到自由之时，我们便可翘首企盼这座城市合二为一，这个国家、整个伟大的欧洲大陆沐浴和平与希望之光。当那一天终于来到时，西柏林人可以深深告慰自己，我们在最前线奋斗了二十年。

全世界所有的自由人，不管他身在何方，都是柏林市民！所以，作为一个自由人，我无比自豪地说：“我是一个柏林人！”

Two thousand years ago the proudest boast was “civis Romanus sum.” Today, in the world of freedom, the proudest boast is “Ich bin ein Berliner.” I appreciate my interpreter translating my German!There are many people in the world who really don't understand, or say they don't, what is the great issue between the free world and the Communist world.Let them come to Berlin.There are some who say that communism is the wave of the future.Let them come to Berlin.And there are some who say in Europe and elsewhere we can work with the Communists.Let them come to Berlin.And there are even a few who say that it is true that communism is an evil system, but it permits us to make economic progress.Lass' sie nach Berlin kommen.Let them come to Berlin.Freedom has many difficulties and democracy is not perfect, but we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in, to prevent them from leaving us.I want to say, on behalf of my countrymen, who live many miles away on the other side of the Atlantic, who are far distant from you, that they take the greatest pride that they have been able to share with you, even from a distance, the story of the last 18 years.I know of no town, no city, that has been besieged for 18 years that still lives with the vitality and the force, and the hope and the determination of the city of West Berlin.While the wall is the most obvious and vivid demonstration of the failures of the Communist system, for all the world to see, we take no satisfaction in it, for it is, as your Mayor has said, an offense not only against history but an offense against humanity, separating families, dividing husbands and wives and brothers and sisters, and dividing a people who wish to be joined together.What is true of this city is true of Germany--real, lasting peace in Europe can never be assured as long as one German out of four is denied the elementary right of free men, and that is to make a free choice.In 18 years of peace and good faith, this generation of Germans has earned the right to be free, including the right to unite their families and their nation in lasting peace, with good will to all people.You live in a defended island of freedom, but your life is part of the main.So let me ask you as I close, to lift your eyes beyond the dangers of today, to the hopes of tomorrow, beyond the freedom merely of this city of Berlin, or your country of Germany, to the advance of freedom everywhere, beyond the wall to the day of peace with justice, beyond yourselves and ourselves to all mankind.Freedom is indivisible, and when one man is enslaved, all are not free.When all are free, then we can look forward to that day when this city will be joined as one and this country and this great Continent of Europe in a peaceful and hopeful globe.When that day finally comes, as it will, the people of West Berlin can take sober satisfaction in the fact that they were in the front lines for almost two decades.All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin, and, therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words "Ich bin ein Berliner

第四篇：里根柏林墙英文演讲稿

篇一：追忆柏林墙 追忆柏林墙

肯尼迪在柏林墙边的演说： kennedy 二千年以前，最自豪的夸耀是civitas romanus sum，今天，自由世界最自豪的夸耀是ich bin ein berliner。

世界上有许多人确实不懂，或者说他们不明白什么是自由世界和共产主义世界的根本分歧。让他们来柏林吧。有些人说，共产主义是未来的潮流。让他们来柏林吧。有些人说，我们能在欧洲或其他地方与共产党人合作。让他们来柏林吧。甚至有那么几个人说，共产主义确是一种邪恶的制度，但它可以使我们取得经济发展。“lasst sie nach berlin kommen.” 自由有许多困难，民主亦非完美，然而我们从未建造一堵墙把我们的人民关在里面，不准他们离开我们。我愿意我的同胞们——他们与你们远隔千里住在大西洋彼岸——说，他们为能在远方与你们共有过去十八年的经历感到莫大的骄傲。我不知道还有哪一个城镇或都市被围困十八年仍葆有西柏林的这种生机、力量、希望和决心。全世界都看到，柏林墙最生动最明显地表现出一种失败。但我们对此并不感到称心如意，因为柏林墙既是对历史也是对人性的冒犯，它拆散家庭，造成妻离子散骨肉分离，把希冀统一的一个民族分成两半。

这个城市的事实也用于整个德国——只要四个德国人中有一个被剥夺了自由人的基本权利，即自由选择的权利，那么欧洲真正持久的和平便绝无可能实现。经过保持和平与善意的十八年，这一代德国人终于赢得自由的权利，包括在持久和平中善所有的人民，实现家庭团聚和民族统一的权利。你们住在受到保护的一座自由之岛上，但你们的生活是大海的一部分。因此让我在结束讲话时请求你们抬起目光，超越今日的危险看到明天的希望；超越这道墙看到正义的生平来临的一天；超越你们自己和我们自己看到全人类。自由是不可分割的，只要一人被奴役，所有的人都不自由。当所有的人都自由了，那时我们便能期待这一天的到来：在和平与希望的光辉中这座城市获得统一，这个国家获得统一，欧洲大陆获得统一。当这一天最终来临——它必将来临——时，西柏林人民将能对这一点感到欣慰：几乎二十年时间里他们站在第一线。

一切自由人，不论他们住在何方，皆是柏林市民，所以作为一个自由人，我为“ich bin ein berliner”这句话感到自豪。历史见证：越过柏林墙，寻求自由

柏林墙由12公里长的水泥墙和137公里长的铁丝网组成，包括有116个观望台，随后经过了四次改建和加固。柏林墙一共截断了192条街道（97条在柏林内，95条为柏林通向东德的道路），32条铁路线，8条轻轨和4条地铁以及3条高速公路。边界上的河流、湖泊也被禁止通航，并加以监视。西柏林变成了一座孤岛。谁想在西柏林与西德之间旅行，则必须通过边境的严格检查。

第二次世界大战结束后，德国被分为4个区域，分别由法国、英国、美国和苏联接管，后来前三方合并，而苏联接管的地区变得更加孤立。这条1953年拉起的钢丝围栏把很多德国朋友分开了。

随着苏联和西方国家紧张局势的加剧，不同地区间的通道逐渐缩小。1961年，这条边界被正式化地变成了一堵砖墙，照片中东德士兵和工人正在给柏林墙增加高度。柏林墙把千千万万的德国家庭分隔开来，许多居住在东部的德国人无法再去西部上班。沿墙而行的街道也都被割裂开来，许多交通工具无法再在那里行驶。

多年来很多东德人试图逃到西边去。图为1961年一名17岁的东德男孩翻越柏林墙，两名西德警察正在帮助他安全地下来。

柏林墙建成后，西柏林变成了一片孤独的、被敌视和被包围的土地。在柏林墙位于奥巴鲍姆桥的检查站，两名东德边界警卫锁好大门后离开。美国总统肯尼迪于1963年访问柏林墙位于勃兰登堡门的关口，他在发表演讲时用德语说：我是一个柏林人(ich bin ein berliner)。这句话后来成为名言。逃到西德的东德女孩在和妈妈隔墙说话。

到上世纪80年代中期，柏林墙已经成为冷战的最持久象征。

“自由有许多困难，民主亦非完美，然而我们从未建造一堵墙把我们的人民关在里面，不准他们离开我们。” ——肯尼迪《柏林墙下的演说》1963年6月25日于西德市政厅柏林墙前。

柏林墙

地面逃亡最简单的方式是直接翻墙而过。看上去一人多高的墙可以翻身而上。但逃亡者从开始在边境开阔地带奔跑到墙下，再翻身跃上墙的这段时间内，生与死就完全听天由命了。1961年，当十八岁的东柏林青年彼得·费希特尔在到达墙跟翻身跃墙，他已经爬到了柏林墙的顶部，只需要再加最后一把劲，就可以达成目标，就在这个时候，枪声响了?? 彼得滑落回柏林墙东侧。

悲剧还没有完，身中数弹的彼得倒在柏林墙下，血流如注，这期间，他不停地呼喊救命，呼声惊动了西柏林一边的边防军人。军人们扔过来一个急救包，但血将流尽的彼得·费希特尔已无力自救。彼得就这样在墙下躺了50分钟，没有一个东德警察前来管他。

彼得的呼喊声一点一点的低下去了，低下去了。西柏林的人群爆发出愤怒的抗议声。

这是柏林墙将柏林城和它的人民分割以来，第一位在逃亡中死于枪击的东柏林市民。

如果说彼得最大的不幸在于他最终没有成功，我不知道下面这个最后“成功” 的例子，是不是算幸运。

在柏林墙刚完成的那一年，由于墙还不是很坚固，有人就想出了办法，开重型车辆直接撞墙，直接冲开柏林墙进入西德。1961年，这类事件多达14起。

逃亡者要面对的绝不仅仅是坚固的高墙，还有来自军队和警察的密集射击。而在枪林弹雨中全速前进去撞一堵大墙的行为，毫无疑问是“双重自杀行为”。而这却是当年东德一些逃亡者们投生的方式。

布鲁希克和他的同伙就是利用大客车冲击柏林墙，但是他们的行动从一开始就被发现了。军队和警察从多个方向向客车密集射击，客车起火燃烧，弹痕累累！还好，客车质量过硬，不但没有熄火，还在布鲁希克良好的驾驶下奋勇加速，一声巨响，柏林墙被撞开了一个大缺口，整个客车冲进了西柏林！

欢呼的人群拥上来迎接，却被眼前的景象震惊了，驾驶座上的布鲁希克身中19弹，他是用生命的最后意志坚持加速，冲向柏林墙的。当客车冲进西柏林的那一刻，布鲁希克停止了呼吸。柏林人展开了一场争论，布鲁希克究竟有没有看到他梦想看到的西柏林？最后是一个现场镜头宽慰了大家，从镜头上看，客车驾驶座位于西柏林之后，布鲁希克还有一个抬头的动作。是的，那时候他还活着！他的眼睛最后映出的，是他梦想中的自由世界－西柏林！他是一个成功者。

另一个传奇式的故事是空中热气球逃亡。

1979年的一个深夜，东德黑色夜幕的上空出现了一个高度为28米的欧洲历史上最大体积的热气球。当这个热气球接近柏林墙地域时，被东柏林地面警卫发现。三束探照灯直射黑色天幕，追踪监视着这个看来企图越境朝西柏林飘去的热气球。就在地面警卫朝这来历不明的巨大热气球开枪射击之前，热气球迅速高升，爬上了两千六百米高空，随后不知去向。这个热气球的吊蓝里，装着两个东德的家庭，大人小孩一共八口人。

他们在快速升高后，可能由于慌乱，失去了方向。当在空中飞行28分钟后，热气球安全降落地面。悄悄掀开覆盖了他们的巨大气球布，看看外围环境：丛林荒草，远近没有人烟。他们无法判断究竟是到了自己的目的地西德，还是不过在空中转了一个圈，仍在东德境内。或者，已经非法进入了其他国家的土地。他们不知该如何是好。

他们既非科学家又非运动员，虽然对气体动力学一无所知，但自从萌生了用热气球逃出东德的想法，就开始白手起家。买来了有关的书籍，从头学习有关原理。买来大量的纺织品，利用自己研制的相关设备一次次实验将要充当气球外体的布的质量。气象学要掌握、操作要掌握，材料学、工程学、物理、化学、力学等等知识都需要。后来，那个奇迹终于悄悄地在这一对普通东德人家的房顶下诞生了。在那个神不知，鬼不觉的深夜，那个欧洲最大的热气球载着两家人的希望和梦想，升上了东德阴霾的天空。他们什么都想到了：出境前被打落坠地、被逮捕入狱，出境后落入海中或落在人家房顶，落在城市中心等等，无论什么意外事故发生，好歹总要面对一个结局。他们就是没想到，什么意外也没发生，但当气球安全着陆时，竟是真相不明，无人理睬，没有下文。两对年轻的父母，带着四个年幼的孩子，闷在气球巨大的布面下，把未来的结局想设想了一遍又一遍：走出这泄了气的热气球，要么被东德政府关进监狱，要么向其他什么国家的政府投案自首，要么在西德安居乐业，重获新生。想想为这次逃亡而长久地呕心沥血，看看四个无辜的孩子，他们无法承受被东德政府关进监狱的命运，不敢走出气球；或者他们干脆把命运交给了上帝，听天由命。他们唯一能作的，就是祈祷。降落整整24小时以后，军人来了，揭开了气球。他们对这8个逃亡者说出了他们盼望了多少年的话。

“你们自由了！这里是西德的领土”。

1987年6月12日清晨，美国总统里根抵达柏林，此时这座城市正在庆贺其750岁诞辰。在将东西柏林割裂20余年的分界线——勃兰登堡门的柏林墙前，里根发表了著名的演讲。演讲稿由秘书起草，听者主要是正意欲与美国缔结友好关系的对象——苏联领导人米哈伊尔·戈尔巴乔夫，还有届时在场的2万名听众。

在这次著名的演讲中，里根呼吁戈尔巴乔夫拆掉柏林墙，这一言辞遭到美国国务院和国家安全委员会的强烈反对，他们担心克里姆林宫的强硬派会以此向戈氏提出质疑。那天下午，不到2时，里根走上讲台。因为担心会有恐怖袭击，里根身后放置了两块巨大的防弹玻璃。

里根总统说出了以下这段震撼世界的话：“戈尔巴乔夫总书记，如果你要寻求和平，如果你要为苏联和东欧寻求繁荣，如果你要寻求自由：就到这扇门来吧！戈尔巴乔夫先生，打开这扇门！戈尔巴乔夫先生，拆掉这堵墙！”

1987年6月，美国总统里根访问柏林，从德国国会大厦的阳台上观看柏林墙。篇二：柏林墙 柏林墙 柏林墙（德语：berliner mauer）是德国分裂期间东德政府环绕西柏林边境修筑的边防系统，以将其与东德领土分割开来。柏林墙始建于1961年8月13日，全长155公里。最初以铁丝网和砖石为材料，后期加固为由瞭望塔、混凝土墙、开放地带以及反车辆壕沟组成的边防设施。东德政府称此墙为“反法西斯防卫墙”（德语：antifaschistischer schutzwall）或“强化边境”（德语：befestigte staatsgrenze），其目的是阻止东德居民逃往西柏林。

第二次世界大战后，原德国首都柏林被分割为东柏林与西柏林，柏林墙的建立是冷战期间美国和苏联两大阵营之间冲突导致的，它是二战后德国分裂和冷战的重要标志性建筑，也成为了分割东西欧的铁幕的一个象征。柏林墙修筑前，约有250万东德居民逃离东德，他们中的许多人通过西柏林前往西德和其他西欧国家。柏林墙修建后在1961至1989年间这类逃亡被大幅限制下来，约有5000人在此期间尝试翻越柏林墙。1960年起东德边防军将其视为非法越境并向越境者开枪射击，1982年《开枪射击令》（schie?befehl）下达后被合法化。据截止2009年的统计，死亡人数约在136至245人之间，确切数目则不得而知。

1989年东欧国家发生了一系列政治变动，邻国波兰和匈牙利政府的政策也发生了变化。在数周的抗议活动后，1989年11月9日东德政府宣布允许公民申请访问西德以及西柏林，当晚柏林墙因故在东德居民的压力下被迫开放。随后数周中欣喜的人群凿下柏林墙作为纪念品，1990年6月东德政府正式决定拆除柏林墙。柏林墙的倒塌为结束统一社会党专政以及两德统一铺平了道路，一年后的1990年10月3日两德最终统一。历史意义

柏林墙的倒塌，给联邦德国提供了大量的劳动力，给民主德国带来了先进的技术和资金，并使民主德国的人民的生活有一定的改善。

柏林墙的倒塌，代表了一个统一的德国，作为欧洲经济体中重要的组成部分。德国的发展可以带动整个欧洲的经济发展，使世界经济向多元化的趋势发展。

柏林墙的倒塌标志着德国的统一，是东欧剧变的一部分，也推动了苏联解体和冷战结束。不能否定柏林围墙倒塌的正面意义，但更应为二十多年来所付代价作反思。苏联集团解体诚是历史跃进，但若世界思维仍停在“敌消我长”这种战略利益窠臼中，那么历史跃进的意义会被抵消。

1989年11月9日，作为东西两大阵营对立的主要象征，柏林围墙被拆毁。柏林围墙的建造始于1961年，它的兴建与倒塌都标志着近代历史的重大变化。它的兴建意味着二战之后东西对峙的冷战时代达到巅峰。苏联东欧集团，在20世纪80年代，经历波兰“团结工会”运动、捷克斯洛伐克“七七宪章”运动，到柏林墙倒塌的第2年，即1990年10月3日，两德统一。而整个苏联也在1991年12月25日正式解体。

因此柏林墙倒塌，乃是欧洲及世界史的里程碑事件。它淘汰掉历史发展过程中某些专制封闭的政治形式，让全球统一进了以自由化、民主化和市场化为主导的新秩序中。名人评述

“自由有许多困难，民主亦非完美，然而我们从未建造一堵墙把我们的人民关在里面，来防止他们分开我们。” “自由是不可分割的，只要一人被奴役，所有的人都不自由。”——约翰·肯尼迪（1963年6月26日）“世界上的围墙都是防止外面的人闯进来的，只有一种围墙是防止里面的人出去的，那是什么？那就是监狱的围墙！” ——约翰·肯尼迪 “戈尔巴乔夫先生，打开这扇门。”“戈尔巴乔夫先生，推倒这堵墙！”——罗纳德·里根（1987年6月12日）

“柏林墙的倒塌是对暴政的谴责。”——巴拉克·侯赛因·奥巴马

“感谢柏林人在这个陷入困境的世界所作出的努力。非洲人还处于饥饿中，津巴布韦人留着眼泪在哭泣。那些处于痛苦中的人不必永远忍受。”——戈登·布朗

“这个纪念活动是号召大家反对压迫，拆除仍然分裂世界的所有围墙。这些围墙将城市、地区和国家分离。”——尼古拉·萨科齐

“对抗时代已经过去，我们应该建立一种独特的、新的、更好的世界。”——德米特里·阿纳托利耶维奇·梅德韦杰夫篇三：09年奥巴马在中美战略与经济对话上的演讲稿 中英对照版 奥巴马在中美战略对话中的演讲稿全文

below are the full remarks, as prepared for delivery and released by the white house: 总统先生：谢谢。各位早上好。我很荣幸地欢迎大家来到中美战略性经济对话的首场会议。本场会议是中美两国建立积极建设性的综合关系不必可少的一步。胡锦涛主席也支持以持续的对话促进两国的共同利益的达成，对此，我感到非常高兴。

president hu and i both felt that it was important to get our relationship off to a good start.of course, as a new president and also as a basketball fan, i have learned from the words of yao ming, who said, no matter whether you are new or an old team member, you need time to adjust to one another.well, through the constructive meetings that weve already had, and through this dialogue, im confident that we will meet yaos standard.胡主席和我都认为，一个好的开头，对于两国关系有着重要作用。当然，作为一位新当选的总统，我也是一名篮球迷，我从姚明的一句话中有所得益。这句话是这样说的“无论你在球队多久，你都需要时间和其他的队友磨合。”。通过本次对话及两国以往多次的富有建设性的会议，我有信心，我们是能够达到姚明这句话所蕴含的含义。

现在我来介绍一下参与本次对话的各位杰出的美国及中国的领导人。希拉里·克林顿以及蒂姆·加斯内是我最亲密的两位顾问，他们对于如何与中国进行合作具有丰富的经验。我知道，他们能胜任与中方代表国务委员戴秉国先生与副主席王岐山先生进行良好沟通。谢谢你们的到来。

today, we meet in a building that speaks to the history of the last century.it houses a national memorial to president woodrow wilson, a man who held office when the 20th century was still young。and americas leadership in the world was emerging.it is named for ronald reagan, a man who came of age during two world wars, and whose presidency helped usher in a new era of history.and it holds a piece of the berlin wall, a decades-long symbol of division that was finally torn down, unleashing a rising tide of globalization that continues to shape our world.今天，我们所处的这一建筑物代表着上一世纪的历史。这里有伍德罗·威尔逊总统的国家纪念碑。他在20世纪初期就任总统，当时美国在国际的领导方兴未艾。这里是以罗纳德·里根命名的。里根一生经历了两次世界大战，而他的总统就任引领一个新时代的到来。数十年前，柏林墙作为国家分裂的标志并最终被推翻，而这一总统就任执起了柏林墙的砖瓦，让全球化的理念光芒四射，并持续地塑造我们的世界。we cant predict with certainty what the future will bring, but we can be certain about the issues that will define our times.and we also know this: the relationship between the united states and china will shape the 21st century, which makes it as important as any bilateral relationship in the world.that really must underpin our partnership.that is the responsibility that together we bear.我们无法准确地预测未来将为我们带来什么，但我们可以确定哪些问题将对我们的时代具有举足轻重的意义。我们也知道，中美两国的关系将构建21世纪，这和世界上所有的双边关系都同等重要。这必将对我们的合作关系打下基础。这是我们的共同责任。

as we look to the future, we can learn from our past--for history shows us that both our nations benefit from engagement that is grounded in mutual interest and mutual respect.during my time in office, we will mark the 40th anniversary of president nixons trip to china.at that time, the world was much different than it is today.america had fought three wars in east asia in just 30 years, and the cold war was in a stalemate.chinas economy was cut off from the world, and a huge percentage of the chinese people lived in extreme poverty.回顾历史，展望未来。历史告诉我们，我们两国的利益产生的基础是互惠互重。在我就任期间，我们会经历尼克松总统访华40周年纪念。当时，世界的面貌和现在大不相同。在30年间，美国在东亚就进行了三次战争，而当时大量的中国人生活在极端贫困的环境中。

那个时候，中美两国的对话的焦点是狭窄的，那是我们共同的竞争对手苏联。而今天，我们有着广泛的合作关系，这一关系反映着两国人民越来越紧密的联系。两国的联合关系比疏离关系的时间要长。两国人民在多个方面相互合作。我相信，我们必将在我们时代的一些重要问题上稳步前进。

my confidence is rooted in the fact that the united states and china share mutual interests.if we advance those interests through cooperation, our people will benefit and the world will be better off--because our ability to partner with each other is a prerequisite for progress on many of the most pressing global challenges.中美两国的共同利益时我的信息来源。如果我们可以通过合作来促进这些利益，我们的人民将受惠，世界也讲变得更美好。原因是我们相互合作的能力是迎接大量最紧迫的全球性挑战的前提。

让我提出其中的几点。第一，我们可以再持续的经济复苏中进行合作，一促进我们双方的利益。当前的危机让我们很清楚地看到，我们两国的国内决策影响着全球经济。不仅在纽约和西雅图如此，上海和深圳也不例外。这就是我们为什么必需保湿坚固的双边及多边协作的原因。这也是我们必先摒弃激进的行为而采取合作，从而挽回增长、防止进一步衰退及让人民免于失业的其中一个例子。going forward, we can deepen this cooperation.we can promote financial stability through greater transparency and regulatory reform.we can pursue trade that is free and fair, and seek to conclude an ambitious and balanced doha round agreement.we can update international institutions so that growing economies like china play a greater role that matches their greater responsibility.and as americans save more and chinese are able to spend more, we can put growth on a more sustainable foundation--because just as china has benefited from substantial investment and profitable exports, china can also be an enormous market for american goods.进一步来讲，我们可以深化这一合作。我们可以通过加大透明度及有序的改革促进金融稳定。我们可以尽行自由而公平的贸易，寻求一个具有抱负的平衡的多哈回合协议。我们可以更新国际惯例，使中国这样的新兴经济体可以发挥能够与他们能力相配的更大的作用。随着美国的储蓄增加以及中国的消费能力提高，我们可以将增长放在一个更加持续的基础上，原因是中国得益于持续的投资与有利可图的出口，那么她也可以成为美国商品的巨大市场。

第二，我们可以共同合作，以促进我们在洁净、安全、及繁荣的能源未来中的双方利益。中美是世界两大能源消耗国以及温室气体排放国。我们坦率地认识到，如果如果我们不进行合作，而越来越依靠别的国家供给石油，我们是无法得益的，我们人民也无法避免气候变化所带来的劫难。常识让我们通力合作。

both of our countries are taking steps to transform our energy economies.together we can chart a low carbon recovery;we can expand joint efforts at research and development to promote the clean and efficient use of energy;and we can work together to forge a global response at the climatechange conference in copenhagen and beyond.and the best way to foster the innovation that can increase our security and prosperity is to keep our markets open to new ideas, new exchanges, and new sources of energy.我们两国都在采取措施对能源经济进行改革。如果联手，我们可以跟踪大量的碳资源恢复，我们可以在研发方面扩大合作，促进能源的洁净及有效使用，我们可以在哥本哈根气候变化会议上以及会议以外共同促进气候变化问题的全球回应。而保证我们的安全与繁荣革新的最佳方法是让我们的市场接纳新的设想、新的交流以及新的能源来源。

third, we can cooperate to advance our mutual interests in stopping the spread of nuclear weapons.make no mistake: the more nations acquire these weapons, the more likely it is that they will be used.neither america nor china has an interest in a terrorist acquiring a bomb, or a nuclear arms race breaking out in east asia.that is why we must continue our collaboration to achieve the denuclearization of the korean peninsula, and make it clear to north korea that the path to security and respect can be traveled if they meet their obligations.and that is why we must also be united in preventing iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, and urging the islamic republic to live up to its international obligations.第三，我们可以在截至核武器扩散这一问题进行合作，以促进我们的共同利益。请不要误会：越多国家获得这些武器，这些武器越有可能被使用。无论是美国还是中国都会对一个获得炸弹的恐怖份子或东亚核武竞赛产生兴趣。这就是我们必需坚持朝鲜半岛无核化，并让北韩知道，实现安全和被尊重的前提是他们尽了自己的义务。而这正是我们必需联合起来防止伊朗获得核武器的原因，也是敦促伊斯兰共和国遵守国际义务的理由。

this is not about singling out any one nation--it is about the responsibility of all nations.together, we must cooperate to secure all vulnerable nuclear materials around the world, which will be a focus of our global nuclear summit next year.and together, we must strengthen the nuclear non-proliferation treaty by renewing its basic bargain: countries with nuclear weapons will move towards disarmament;countries without nuclear weapons will not acquire them;and all countries can access peaceful nuclear energy.a balance of terror cannot hold.in the 21st century, a strong and global regime is the only basis for security from the worlds deadliest weapons.这不是针对某一国家，这是所有国家的共同责任。我们必需全体合作，保障世界上所有脆弱的核材料，而这将是明年全球核问题峰会的焦点。我们必须共同促进防止核扩散条约。方法是补充该条约的基本规定：具有核武器的国家将进行裁军；没有核武器的国家无需裁军；所有的国家均有权获取核能以作安全用途。恐怖活动无法生存。在21世纪，稳固的全球体制是保障世界在最致命的武器面前得以安全的唯一基础。

第五篇：英女王登基60周年演说(英文)

My Lords and Members of the House of Commons, I am most grateful for your Loyal Addresses and the generous words of the Lord Speaker and Mr.Speaker.This great institution has been at the heart of the country and the lives of our people throughout its history.As Parliamentarians, you share with your forebears a fundamental role in the laws and decisions of your own age.Parliament has survived as an unshakeable cornerstone of our constitution and our way of life.History links monarchs and Parliament, a connecting thread from one period to the next.So, in an era when the regular, worthy rhythm of life is less eye-catching than doing something extraordinary, I am reassured that I am merely the second Sovereign to celebrate a Diamond Jubilee.As today, it was my privilege to address you during my Silver and Golden Jubilees.Many of you were present ten years ago and some of you will recall the occasion in 1977.Since my Accession, I have been a regular visitor to the Palace of Westminster and, at the last count, have had the pleasurable duty of treating with twelve Prime Ministers.Over such a period, one can observe that the experience of venerable old age can be a mighty guide but not a prerequisite for success in public office.I am therefore very pleased to be addressing many younger Parliamentarians and also those bringing such a wide range of background and experience to your vital, national work.During these years as your Queen, the support of my family has, across the generations, been beyond measure.Prince Philip is, I believe, well-known for declining compliments of any kind.But throughout he has been a constant strength and guide.He and I are very proud and grateful that The Prince of Wales and other members of our family are travelling on my behalf in this Diamond Jubilee year to visit all the Commonwealth Realms and a number of other Commonwealth countries.These overseas tours are a reminder of our close affinity with the Commonwealth, encompassing about one-third of the world’s population.My own association with the Commonwealth has taught me that the most important contact between nations is usually contact between its peoples.An organization dedicated to certain values, the Commonwealth has flourished and grown by successfully promoting and protecting that contact.At home, Prince Philip and I will be visiting towns and cities up and down the land.It is my sincere hope that the Diamond Jubilee will be an opportunity for people to come together in a spirit of neighbourliness and celebration of their own communities.We also hope to celebrate the professional and voluntary service given by millions of people across the country who are working for the public good.They are a source of vital support to the welfare and wellbeing of others, often unseen or overlooked.And as we reflect upon public service, let us again be mindful of the remarkable sacrifice and courage of our Armed Forces.Much may indeed have changed these past sixty years but the valour of those who risk their lives for the defence and freedom of us all remains undimmed.The happy relationship I have enjoyed with Parliament has extended well beyond the more than three and a half thousand Bills I have signed into law.I am therefore very touched by the magnificent gift before me, generously subscribed by many of you.Should this beautiful window cause just a little extra colour to shine down upon this ancient place, I should gladly settle for that.We are reminded here of our past, of the continuity of our national story and the virtues of resilience, ingenuity and tolerance which created it.I have been privileged to witness some of that history and, with the support of my family, rededicate myself to the service of our great country and its people now and in the years to come.Most Gracious Sovereign, We Your faithful Commons are honoured to be here to commemorate and celebrate the sixty years of Your reign.We too are pleased to have contributed to the Jubilee Window to be revealed shortly and which will mark this occasion permanently.Time is better preserved in this historic place than in fallible human memory.Time also tells its own story.Sixty years ago, rationing meant rather more than a short wait before the arrival of the latest electronic item.Sixty years ago, Britain had just emerged from a war of an intensity never seen before or since and had slipped into the shadow of the Korean conflict.Sixty years ago, a new “Elizabethan Era” was awaited with enthusiasm tinged with uncertainty about the challenges ahead for the country.If, as Gandhi asserted, “the best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others”, then Your Majesty must have found Yourself countless times over the past six decades.You have dedicated Your life to others.The daily example that You set, mirrored by our courageous armed forces of which You are Commander-in-Chief, is extraordinary.Yet perhaps Your Majesty’s most profound contribution has been to the continuity that has made change manageable.For transformation is inevitably turbulent.It has been Your singular accomplishment, Your unique capacity, to hold together that which could have been torn asunder.You have moved with the times and allowed the times to move around the rest of society.This is a different Britain from 1952 but not one detached from then.We are in so many ways a much bigger, brighter and better United Kingdom.This is a land where men and women today are equal under the law and where Your people are respected, regardless of how they live, how they look or how they love.This is a nation of many races, faiths and customs, now beginning to be reflected in Parliament.All this progress has occurred during Your reign.You have become, to many of us, a kaleidoscope Queen of a kaleidoscope country in a kaleidoscope Commonwealth.This gathering is one of many diverse events across these islands in tribute to You and this great anniversary.Our affection as a nation will rightly embrace the Duke of Edinburgh and other members of Your family.These will be moments striking for the sincerity expressed as much as for the scenery encountered.Sixty years of stability.Sixty years of security.Sixty years of certainty.Sixty years of sacrifice.Sixty years of service.Gandhi also observed that “in a gentle way, you can shake the world”.Your Majesty, in a gentle way You have shaken this United Kingdom and the world for six decades.On behalf of all the members of the House of Commons, may I thank You wholeheartedly for all that You have done, are doing and will do for the good of our country.We, the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, are assembled here today to celebrate sixty years of Your reign.We record with warmth and affection our appreciation of Your dedicated service to Your people, and Your unequalled sense of public duty over the yearsa hall of kings and queens for almost a millennium.While this Hall has seen many historic events, few are permanently commemorated.So we look forward with great anticipation to the unveiling of the stained glass window which members of both Houses have commissioned in honour of this day.When placed in the window above the great doors, Your Coat of Arms and Royal Cypher will bathe the Hall in colour and be seen daily by members and staff as they walk through to their offices—and by the many thousands of visitors we receive here weekly, from both home and abroad.For we must remember that Your Jubilee will be celebrated with joy in Your other realms and territories, and throughout the rest of the Commonwealth.The Commonwealth as we know it today is of course one of the great achievements of Your reign and under Your leadership continues to flourish, with a membership of 54 countries.It is still growing.It is a tremendous force for good in the world and we are aware of its special personal significance to You.Many of us present here today take an active part in the work of the United Kingdom Branch of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association.We work to share our experiences, to learn from one another, and to promote democracy.But our efforts are as nothing compared with those of Your Majesty in the service of Your beloved Commonwealth.Over the years You have visited all but two Commonwealth countries—some, many times—and attended all Heads of Government meetings since 1997.We look on with admiration and pride at the triumphs of some of Your recent tours and it is significant that members of the Royal Family are representing You this year at the Jubilee celebrations being held in all those lands in which You are Head of State.Your Majesty, the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament Assembled give thanks for this Your Diamond Jubilee.We look forward to the years to come and we pray that You and Your realms may enjoy the peace, plenty and prosperity that have so distinguished Your reign.'
