Richard M.Nixon: Resignation Speech

Good evening:

This is the 37th time I have spoken to you from this office, where so many decisions have been made that shape the history of this nation.Each time I have done so to discuss with you some matter that I believe affected the national interest.In all the decisions I have made in my public life I have always tried to do what was best for the nation.Throughout the long and difficult period of Watergate, I have felt it was my duty to persevere--to make every possible effort to complete the term of office to which you elected me.In the past few days, however, it has become evident to me that I no longer have a strong enough political base in the Congress to justify continuing that effort.As long as there was such a base, I felt strongly that it was necessary to see the constitutional process through to its conclusion;that to do otherwise would be unfaithful to the spirit of that deliberately difficult process, and a dangerously destabilizing precedent for the future.But with the disappearance of that base, I now believe that the constitutional purpose has been served.And there is no longer a need for the process to be prolonged.I would have preferred to carry through to the finish whatever the personal agony it would have involved, and my family unanimously urged me to do so.But the interests of the nation must always come before any personal considerations.From the discussions I have had with Congressional and other leaders I have concluded that because of the Watergate matter I might not have the support of the Congress that I would consider necessary to back the very difficult decisions and carry out the duties of this office in the way the interests of the nation will require.I have never been a quitter.To leave office before my term is completed is abhorrent to every instinct in my body.But as president, I must put the interests of America first.America needs a full-time president and a full-time Congress, particularly at this time with problems we face at home and abroad.To continue to fight through the months ahead for my personal vindication would almost totally absorb the time and attention of both the president and the Congress in a period when our entire focus should be on the great issues of peace abroad and prosperity without inflation at home.Therefore, I shall resign the presidency effective at noon tomorrow.Vice president Ford will be sworn in as president at that hour in this office.As I recall the high hopes for America with which we began this second term, I feel a great sadness that I will not be here in this office working on your behalf to achieve those hopes in the next two and a half years.But in turning over direction of the Government to Vice president Ford I know, as I told the nation when I nominated him for that office ten months ago, that the leadership of America would be in good hands.In passing this office to the Vice president, I also do so with the profound sense of the weight of responsibility that will fall on his shoulders tomorrow, and therefore of the understanding, the patience, the cooperation he will need from all Americans.As he assumes that responsibility he will deserve the help and the support of all of us.As we look to the future, the first essential is to begin healing the wounds of this nation.To put the bitterness and divisions of the recent past behind us and to rediscover those shared ideals that lie at the heart of our strength and unity as a great and as a free people.By taking this action, I hope that I will have hastened the start of that process of healing which is so desperately needed in America.I regret deeply any injuries that may have been done in the course of the events that led to this decision.I would say only that if some of my judgments were wrong--and some were wrong--they were made in what I believed at the time to be the best interests of the nation.To those who have stood with me during these past difficult months, to my family, my friends, the many others who joined in supporting my cause because they believed it was right, I will be eternally grateful for your support.And to those who have not felt able to give me your support, let me say I leave with no bitterness toward those who have opposed me, because all of us in the final analysis have been concerned with the good of the country, however our judgments might differ.So let us all now join together in affirming that common commitment and in helping our new president succeed for the benefit of all Americans.I shall leave this office with regret at not completing my term but with gratitude for the privilege of serving as your president for the past five and a half years.These years have been a momentous time in the history of our nation and the world.They have been a time of achievement in which we can all be proud, achievements that represent the shared efforts of the administration, the Congress and the people.But the challenges ahead are equally great.And they, too, will require the support and the efforts of the Congress and the people, working in cooperation with the new Administration.We have ended America's longest war.But in the work of securing a lasting peace in the world, the goals ahead are even more far-reaching and more difficult.We must complete a structure of peace, so that it will be said of this generation--our generation of Americans--by the people of all nations, not only that we ended one war but that we prevented future wars.We have unlocked the doors that for a quarter of a century stood between the United States and the people's Republic of China.We must now insure that the one-quarter of the world's people who live in the people's Republic of China will be and remain, not our enemies, but our friends.In the Middle East, 100 million people in the Arab countries, many of whom have considered us their enemy for nearly 20 years, now look on us as their friends.We must continue to build on that friendship so that peace can settle at last over the Middle East and so that the cradle of civilization will not become its grave.Together with the Soviet Union we have made the crucial breakthroughs that have begun the process of limiting nuclear arms.But, we must set as our goal, not just limiting, but reducing and finally destroying these terrible weapons, so that they cannot destroy civilization.And so that the threat of nuclear war will no longer hang over the world and the people.We have opened a new relation with the Soviet Union.We must continue to develop and expand that new relationship, so that the two strongest nations of the world will live together in cooperation rather than confrontation.Around the world--in Asia, in Africa, in Latin America, in the Middle East--there are millions of people who live in terrible poverty, even starvation.We must keep as our goal turning away from production for war and expanding production for peace so that people everywhere on this earth can at last look forward, in their children's time, if not in our own time, to having the necessities for a decent life.Here, in America, we are fortunate that most of our people have not only the blessings of liberty but also the means to live full and good, and by the world's standards even abundant lives.We must press on, however, toward a goal not only of more and better jobs but of full opportunity for every American, and of what we are striving so hard right now to achieve--prosperity without inflation.For more than a quarter of a century in public life, I have shared in the turbulent history of this evening.I have fought for what I believe in.I have tried, to the best of my ability, to discharge those duties and meet those responsibilities that were entrusted to me.Sometimes I have succeeded.And sometimes I have failed.But always I have taken heart from what Theodore Roosevelt once said about the man in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again because there is not effort without error and shortcoming, but who does actually strive to do the deed, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumphs of high achievements and with the worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly.I pledge to you tonight that as long as I have a breath of life in my body, I shall continue in that spirit.I shall continue to work for the great causes to which I have been dedicated throughout my years as a Congressman, a Senator, Vice president and president, the cause of peace--not just for America but among all nations--prosperity, justice and opportunity for all of our people.There is one cause above all to which I have been devoted and to which I shall always be devoted for as long as I live.When I first took the oath of office as president five and a half years ago, I made this sacred commitment: to consecrate my office, my energies, and all the wisdom I can summon to the cause of peace among nations.I've done my very best in all the days since to be true to that pledge.As a result of these efforts, I am confident that the world is a safer place today, not only for the people of America but for the people of all nations, and that all of our children have a better chance than before of living in peace rather than dying in war.This, more than anything, is what I hoped to achieve when I sought the presidency.This, more than anything, is what I hope will be my legacy to you, to our country, as I leave the presidency.To have served in this office is to have felt a very personal sense of kinship with each and every American.In leaving it, I do so with this prayer: May God's grace be with you in all the days ahead.

第二篇：英语演讲

How many people know to jump nobody signs action?(Such this.)We know, in recent years this dance is very popular.now let me

Introduce the song.it Inherited “me” and “the most classic of both hot period of American music, restore ancient ways elements of culture and the English hackberrya Motown style perfect fit in, create a” nobody street.The choreography is usual Wonder showed Girls relaxed active stage style, easy toxic.After the nobody “

slow, the tango, guitar and Korea etc.Various English version emerge in endlessly.Girls not only Wonder in Korea, dominated the awards ceremony, with English ”nobody in the United States, and the first appearance on the bulletin board list every toradio of 76.These are becoming a global Wonder that Girls, on to the first family Obama and from the Philippines, down to a prison enthusiasts, the song of love.The emerging online video imitation and detonated a network of panic, “nobody.The Girls of Wonder nobody ”is a Korean pop the magic of music.In China, you can be heard everywhere, seeing all this song in the dance.This is also our today's theme: when speaking to South Korean pop storm comes, are you ready?

有多少人会跳nobody的招牌动作呢？像这样(表演动作)继承了《tell me》和《so hot》时期最为经典的复古元素，深受美国音乐文化影响的朴镇英又将Motown风格完美的融入其中，打造出了《nobody》这一名曲。编舞也一如既往的展现了Wonder Girls清爽活泼的舞台风格，简单易懂中毒性极强。

之后，《nobody》的慢版、探戈版、吉他版和韩中英语等各种版本层出不穷。Wonder Girls不仅在韩国内，横扫各大颁奖典礼，还凭借英文版《nobody》在美国初次登台，并一举登上了美国公告牌榜最热单曲的76位。这些都表明Wonder Girls红遍了全球，上至美国第一家庭的奥巴马母女，下至来自菲律宾某监狱的发烧友们，都对这首歌喜爱有加。不断涌现的网友模仿视频也引爆了网络，掀起了《nobody》的狂潮，持续至今。Wonder Girls的这首《nobody》可谓是韩国乐坛的一首的神奇之曲。在中国，你到处都可以听到这首歌，看到大家在跳。这也正是我们今天的要讲的主题：当韩潮来临时，你准备好了吗？

Not only dancing,what most popular in China for many years is Korean dramas.Believe that you have seen many Korean dramas, especially girls.Why han drama so attractive? I think it because it fit many people imagine, beautiful actress and rich childe romantic love story caused the female audience's endless longing.China ocean university professor JinLongFan tells us a funny thing: “once asked han students learn other languages, why don't you learn Korean? The answer is, because like han drama so intellect.Then I said, see dubbed or subtitles not ok? Why must learn Korean students? Then smiled answered and said to them, a personal experience in the south Korean dramas.It seems that mass culture of Korean triggered concern is not argue that already.”

不仅有舞蹈，在中国流行了很多年的韩剧。相信大家都看过很多韩剧，尤其是女孩子。为什么韩剧这么吸引人呢？我觉得很多因为它满足很多人的想象，美丽的女主角和富家公子的浪漫爱情故事引起广大女性观众的无限憧憬。中国海洋大学教授金龙范给我们讲了一段有趣的事情：“曾经问汉族学生，为什么不学其他语言而学韩国语？回答竟然是，因为喜欢韩剧所以才学。后来我又反问道，看译制片或字幕不就可以了吗？为什么一定要学韩国语？这时，学生们笑着回答说，想融入其中，切身感受一下韩剧。看来，韩国的大众文化触发了对韩国语的关注已是不可争辩的事实。”

South Korean star's influence has gone up rapidly in recent years, the media has breath more in star signed exclusive agency of 14 Korean.For the foreseeable future, the south Korean star will be further into our life.Entertainment,这也导致了韩国明星影响力在中国的飙升，有的星传媒更于日前一口气签下了十四位韩星的独家代理权。可以预见的是，韩国明星未来将进一步介入我们的娱乐生活。

Korean dramas and south Korean star, also brought the Korean beauty industry development in China.I think the blossom in China is Korea's beauty.I think the blossom in China is Korea's beauty.It also raises a tornado in China.I think this is because our native culture begins to release society beauty, the consciousness of chung Internet technology support and sow han drama, Korean stars and also because our country started business in China market, created beauty on the earth, a sunrise industry-plastic industry are formed, and quickly and quietly.Keen to change the appearance of the acquired through those who believe that not only can let yourself get cosmetic beautiful appearance can also help a successful career, such as “China's first man-made beauty” HaoLuLu, Korean star Kim hee-sun, won bin, etc., all looked after by Peugeot features of popular cosmetic..韩剧和韩国明星的引入，也带来了韩国美容业在中国的发展。我想在中国遍地开花的是韩国的美容业。它也同样在中国掀起了一阵旋风。我想这是由于我国本土文化开始释放社会崇美意识，互联网的技术支撑和韩剧热播和韩国明星走红，也由于我国商界开始支撑造美市场，在中国大地上,一个朝阳产业——整形美容业正在被悄然推动，并迅速形成热潮。热衷于通过后天努力改变外表的那些人相信，整容不仅可以让自己获得靓丽的外形还能帮助事业成功，如“中国第一人造美女”郝璐璐，韩国大牌明星金喜善、元斌、张东健等，一个个都凭借整容后标致的五官走红。

Of course, the lovely little also not in China, now the influence of melting and lovely Korean style has deep heart.And South Korea pickle, now a lot of cities in China have many Korean restaurant.It is of Japanese cuisine, refined, and civilization of the Chinese food,eating with material benefit and thick, taste and the long and grasp of of primitive simplicity, is rare delicacy wind.当然了，也少不了韩服在中国的影响，现在韩式甜美可爱的风格已经深人人心。还有韩国的泡菜，现在很多在中国的各个城市也有很多韩国料理店。它有日本料理的文明、雅致，又有中国菜的实惠与厚重，随吃法而变味道，采众长而秉古朴之风，实属不可多得的美味。

Today, I am not speaking to Korean culture is good or bad, just as an entertainment in Korean culture and talk to Chinese influence.Of course, I believe you are wise to choice , so, when the Korean pop storm you, are you ready? Accept or reject? Thank you!

今天，我不是来说韩国文化的好坏，只是作为一个娱乐在和大家谈论韩国文化对中国的影响。当然，我相信明智的你，因此，当韩国流行风暴向你袭来，你准备好了吗？接受或拒绝？谢谢！

第三篇：英语演讲

In September, 2008，the American subprime mortgage crisis which lasted more than one year gradually extended to the whole economy system to be an economy crisis all over the world.Its coming not only makes the Untied States face a series of economic problem，but also brings the economic market around the world a great shock: As a country，the Iceland has applied for the bankruptcy;Zimbabwe’s inflation has been out of control;Our neighbor，Korea，since its economic system gets closest to the United States，it suffers much more than other Asian countries in this economic storm.As for China, we are influenced a lot in this special year.A lot of factories in Guangdong and Fujian province suffered a lot: the difficulty in exporting, the workers were laid off，even made the factory break;A great number of students in universities also feel about the crisis, since it’s hard for them to find a job.However，as one of the newly developing countries in Asian countries，China has strict foreign exchange control and relatively independent financial system，which can help to reduce the influence that the crisis would bring.Although China is not an utopia in this storm，but we do worry less than the countries we referred to.Anyway，the new round of economic crisis has come.China，the powerful Titanic has to consider the crash the storm would bring.We should seize the opportunity and try our best to solve the problem.Only in this way can our journey to develop economy safe and harmonious.At last，I’d like to wish our country good luck.Let’s stand up from where we fall down

All the celebrations welcoming the new century were hold in the year 2000, because life without a greeting is like the sky without the sun.Greetings are very important for the whole world, in my opinion.But I don’t know whether greetings are enough for us.Especially when we meet with failures.I remember quite clearly that when I was a child, if I fall down and was on the brink of crying, my father always told me” Please stand up from where you fall down!”

Yes, we must stand up from where we fall down.That was a special mid night in 1993.Expectations filled our hearts.We stared at the TV, hoping excitedly as the voice would fly to our ears.But at last, each Chinese who loves our motherland was distressed to know the result: Beijing, lost to Sydney by a margin of two votes in the Olympic hosting competition.Eight years have past, but the frustration has not healed with time at all.Now, at the beginning of the new millennium, all of the pride and disappointment of the 20th century had gone with the wind.The 21st century, which is full of hope, longing and thought has come.Someone said, we would start from zero on.Should I really start from zero on?

No!I hold that we should go on with our efforts and ambitions stayed by last century, and make our life better.“New Beijing, great Olympics!” The voice cries this out around China’s capital, a 3,000-year-old city these days.Beijing, along with Paris, Istanbul, Osaka and Toronto, has been short listed by the International Olympic Committee as an official candidate city for the 2008 Olympic Games.Facing the new century, mankind is driven by the revolution of science and technology, world economy is undergoing broad and profound changes.But nobody can deny the fact that compared with developed nations, developing countries are confronted with more pressure and challenges.In order to become famous in the world, we must speed up our international economic restructuring to catch up with industrialized nations.Supporting Beijing’s bid is a systematic project that can support China’s development efforts.I believe recycled paper, clean fuel, sorted rubbish, water-saving and energy-efficient facilities will become reality in the coming years for China.I believe the new century is an era of learning and teaching, and lifelong education has become one of the main trends in the future development of Chinese society.I believe that, on July 13, our dream of Beijing’s Olympic bid will become true.Because to millions of Chinese, for China to have the global respect and support that she deserves is not just a dream.It is a part of our very souls.For we are not only equal members of our motherland, China, but we are also equal contributors to the world as a whole.Let us stand together, all nations in Beijing, in brotherhood, friendship and peace, in 2008 and forever!
