『壹』 美国励志人物大学演讲稿中英文对照版,有哪些
Madam President Faust, members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers, faculty, family, friends, and, most importantly, today's graates,
尊敬的Faust校长,哈佛集团的各位成员,监管理事会的各位理事,各位老师,各位家长,各位朋友,以及最重要的各位毕业生同学,
Thank you for letting me share this wonderful day with you.
感谢你们,让我有机会同你们一起分享这个美妙的日子。
I am not sure I can live up to the high standards of Harvard Commencement speakers. Last year, J.K. Rowling, the billionaire novelist, who started as a classics student, graced this podium. The year before, Bill Gates, the mega-billionaire philanthropist and computer nerd stood here. Today, sadly, you have me. I am not a billionaire, but at least I am a nerd.
我不太肯定,自己够得上哈佛大学毕业典礼演讲人这样的殊荣。去年登上这个讲台的是,英国亿万身家的小说家J.K. Rowling女士,她最早是一个古典文学的学生。前年站在这里的是比尔•盖茨先生,他是一个超级富翁、一个慈善家和电脑高手。今年很遗憾,你们的演讲人是我,虽然我不是很有钱,但是至少我也算一个高手。
I am grateful to receive an honorary degree from Harvard, an honor that means more to me than you might care to imagine. You see, I was the academic black sheep of my family. My older brother has an M.D./Ph.D. from MIT and Harvard while my younger brother has a law degree from Harvard. When I was awarded a Nobel Prize, I thought my mother would be pleased. Not so. When I called her on the morning of the announcement, she replied, "That's nice, but when are you going to visit me next." Now, as the last brother with a degree from Harvard, maybe, at last, she will be satisfied.
我很感激哈佛大学给我荣誉学位,这对我很重要,也许比你们会想到的还要重要。要知道,在学术上,我是我们家的不肖之子。我的哥哥在麻省理工学院得到医学博士,在哈佛大学得到哲学博士;我的弟弟在哈佛大学得到一个法律学位。我本人得到诺贝尔奖的时候,我想我的妈妈会高兴。但是,我错了。消息公布的那天早上,我给她打电话,她听了只说:"这是好消息,不过我想知道,你下次什么时候来看我?"如今在我们兄弟当中,我最终也拿到了哈佛学位,我想这一次,她会感到满意。
Another difficulty with giving a Harvard commencement address is that some of you may disapprove of the fact that I have borrowed material from previous speeches. I ask that you forgive me for two reasons.
在哈佛大学毕业典礼上发表演讲,还有一个难处,那就是你们中有些人可能有意见,不喜欢我重复前人演讲中说过的话。我要求你们谅解我,因为两个理由。
First, in order to have impact, it is important to deliver the same message more than once. In science, it is important to be the first person to make a discovery, but it is even more important to be the last person to make that discovery.
首先,为了产生影响力,很重要的方法就是重复传递同样的信息。在科学中,第一个发现者是重要的,但是在得到公认前,最后一个将这个发现重复做出来的人也许更重要。
Second, authors who borrow from others are following in the footsteps of the best. Ralph Waldo Emerson, who graated from Harvard at the age of 18, noted "All my best thoughts were stolen by the ancients." Picasso declared "Good artists borrow. Great artists steal." Why should commencement speakers be held to a higher standard?
其次,一个借鉴他人的作者,正走在一条前人开辟的最佳道路上。哈佛大学毕业生、诗人爱默生曾经写下:"古人把我最好的一些思想都偷走了。"画家毕加索宣称"优秀的艺术家借鉴,伟大的艺术家偷窃。"那么为什么毕业典礼的演说者,就不适用同样的标准呢?
I also want to point out the irony of speaking to graates of an institution that would have rejected me, had I the chutzpah to apply. I am married to "Dean Jean," the former dean of admissions at Stanford. She assures me that she would have rejected me, if given the chance. When I showed her a draft of this speech, she objected strongly to my use of the word "rejected." She never rejected applicants; her letters stated that "we are unable to offer you admission." I have difficulty understanding the difference. After all, deans of admissions of highly selective schools are in reality, "deans of rejection." Clearly, I have a lot to learn about marketing.
我还要指出一点,向哈佛毕业生发表演说,对我来说是有讽刺意味的,因为如果当年我斗胆向哈佛大学递交入学申请,一定会被拒绝。我的妻子Jean当过斯坦福大学的招生主任,她向我保证,如果当年我申请斯坦福大学,她会拒绝我。我把这篇演讲的草稿给她过目,她强烈反对我使用"拒绝"这个词,她从来不拒绝任何申请者。在拒绝信中,她总是写:"我们无法提供你入学机会。"我分不清两者到底有何差别。在我看来,那些大热门学校的招生主任与其称为"准许你入学的主任",还不如称为"拒绝你入学的主任"。很显然,我需要好好学学怎么来推销自己。
My address will follow the classical sonata form of commencement addresses. The first movement, just presented, were light-hearted remarks. This next movement consists of unsolicited advice, which is rarely valued, seldom remembered, never followed. As Oscar Wilde said, "The only thing to do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself." So, here comes the advice. First, every time you celebrate an achievement, be thankful to those who made it possible. Thank your parents and friends who supported you, thank your professors who were inspirational, and especially thank the other professors whose less-than-brilliant lectures forced you to teach yourself. Going forward, the ability to teach yourself is the hallmark of a great liberal arts ecation and will be the key to your success. To your fellow students who have added immeasurably to your ecation ring those late night discussions, hug them. Also, of course, thank Harvard. Should you forget, there's an alumni association to remind you. Second, in your future life, cultivate a generous spirit. In all negotiations, don't bargain for the last, little advantage. Leave the change on the table. In your collaborations, always remember that "credit" is not a conserved quantity. In a successful collaboration, everybody gets 90 percent of the credit.
毕业典礼演讲都遵循古典奏鸣曲的结构,我的演讲也不例外。刚才是第一乐章----轻快的闲谈。接下来的第二乐章是送上门的忠告。这样的忠告很少被重视,几乎注定被忘记,永远不会被实践。但是,就像王尔德说的:"对于忠告,你所能做的,就是把它送给别人,因为它对你没有任何用处。"所以,下面就是我的忠告。第一,取得成就的时候,不要忘记前人。要感谢你的父母和支持你的朋友,要感谢那些启发过你的教授,尤其要感谢那些上不好课的教授,因为他们迫使你自学。从长远看,自学能力是优秀的文理教育中必不可少的,将成为你成功的关键。你还要去拥抱你的同学,感谢他们同你进行过的许多次彻夜长谈,这为你的教育带来了无法衡量的价值。当然,你还要感谢哈佛大学。不过即使你忘了这一点,校友会也会来提醒你。第二,在你们未来的人生中,做一个慷慨大方的人。在任何谈判中,都把最后一点点利益留给对方。不要把桌上的钱都拿走。在合作中,要牢记荣誉不是一个守恒的量。成功合作的任何一方,都应获得全部荣誉的90%。
Jimmy Stewart, as Elwood P. Dowd in the movie "Harvey" got it exactly right. He said: "Years ago my mother used to say to me, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be ... she always used to call me Elwood ... in this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.'" Well, for years I was smart. ... I recommend pleasant. You may quote me on that.
电影《Harvey》中,Jimmy Stewart扮演的角色Elwood P. Dowd,就完全理解这一点。他说:"多年前,母亲曾经对我说,'Elwood,活在这个世界上,你要么做一个聪明人,要么做一个好人。'"我做聪明人,已经做了好多年了。......但是,我推荐你们做好人。你们可以引用我这句话。
My third piece of advice is as follows: As you begin this new stage of your lives, follow your passion. If you don't have a passion, don't be satisfied until you find one. Life is too short to go through it without caring deeply about something. When I was your age, I was incredibly single-minded in my goal to be a physicist. After college, I spent eight years as a graate student and postdoc at Berkeley, and then nine years at Bell Labs. During that my time, my central focus and professional joy was physics.
我的第三个忠告是,当你开始生活的新阶段时,请跟随你的爱好。如果你没有爱好,就去找,找不到就不罢休。生命太短暂,如果想有所成,你必须对某样东西倾注你的深情。我在你们这个年龄,是超级的一根筋,我的目标就是非成为物理学家不可。本科毕业后,我在加州大学伯克利分校又待了8年,读完了研究生,做完了博士后,然后去贝尔实验室待了9年。在这些年中,我关注的中心和职业上的全部乐趣,都来自物理学。
Here is my final piece of advice. Pursuing a personal passion is important, but it should not be your only goal. When you are old and gray, and look back on your life, you will want to be proud of what you have done. The source of that pride won't be the things you have acquired or the recognition you have received. It will be the lives you have touched and the difference you have made.
我还有最后一个忠告,就是说兴趣爱好固然重要,但是你不应该只考虑兴趣爱好。当你白发苍苍、垂垂老矣、回首人生时,你需要为自己做过的事感到自豪。你的物质生活和得到的承认,都不会产生自豪。只有那些你出手相助、被你改变过的人和事,才会让你产生自豪。
After nine years at Bell labs, I decided to leave that warm, cozy ivory tower for what I considered to be the "real world," a university. Bell Labs, to quote what was said about Mary Poppins, was "practically perfect in every way," but I wanted to leave behind something more than scientific articles. I wanted to teach and give birth to my own set of scientific children.
在贝尔实验室待了9年后,我决定离开这个温暖舒适的象牙塔,走进我眼中的"真实世界"----大学。我对贝尔实验室的看法,就像别人形容电影Mary Poppins的话,"实际上完美无缺"。但是,我想为世界留下更多的东西,不只是科学论文。我要去教书,培育我自己在科学上的后代。
Ted Geballe, a friend and distinguished colleague of mine at Stanford, who also went from Berkeley to Bell Labs to Stanford years earlier, described our motives best:
我在斯坦福大学有一个好友兼杰出同事Ted Geballe。他也是从伯克利分校去了贝尔实验室,几年前又离开贝尔实验室去了斯坦福大学。他对我们的动机做出了最佳描述:
"The best part of working at a university is the students. They come in fresh, enthusiastic, open to ideas, unscarred by the battles of life. They don't realize it, but they're the recipients of the best our society can offer. If a mind is ever free to be creative, that's the time. They come in believing textbooks are authoritative, but eventually they figure out that textbooks and professors don't know everything, and then they start to think on their own. Then, I begin learning from them."
"在大学工作,最大的优点就是学生。他们生机勃勃,充满热情,思想自由,还没被生活的重压改变。虽然他们自己没有意识到,但是他们是这个社会中你能找到的最佳受众。如果生命中曾经有过思想自由和充满创造力的时期,那么那个时期就是你在读大学。进校时,学生们对课本上的一字一句毫不怀疑,渐渐地,他们发现课本和教授并不是无所不知的,于是他们开始独立思考。从那时起,就是我开始向他们学习了。"
My students, post doctoral fellows, and the young researchers who worked with me at Bell Labs, Stanford, and Berkeley have been extraordinary. Over 30 former group members are now professors, many at the best research institutions in the world, including Harvard. I have learned much from them. Even now, in rare moments on weekends, the remaining members of my biophysics group meet with me in the ether world of cyberspace.
我教过的学生、带过的博士后、合作过的年轻同事,都非常优秀。他们中有30多人,现在已经是教授了。他们所在的研究机构有不少是全世界第一流的,其中就包括哈佛大学。我从他们身上学到了很多东西。即使现在,我偶尔还会周末上网,向现在还从事生物物理学研究的学生请教。
I began teaching with the idea of giving back; I received more than I gave. This brings me to the final movement of this speech. It begins with a story about an extraordinary scientific discovery and a new dilemma that it poses. It's a call to arms and about making a difference.
我怀着回报社会的想法,开始了教学生涯。我的一生中,得到的多于我付出的,所以我要回报社会。这就引出了这次演讲的最后一个乐章。首先我要讲一个了不起的科学发现,以及由此带来的新挑战。它是一个战斗的号令,到了做出改变的时候了。

------------------------------------------------------------------
我想说的是,其实外表并不重要,真正重要的是一个人的知识,技能,生活经验,工作经验,判断力,以及最后把所有这一切加起来,上升成你这个人的智慧。当拥有智慧以后,这个世界就会变得非常美好,当你没有智慧,你会发觉这个世界处处与你作对,甚至有的时候你连生存下去都不可能。所以,也许三四岁以前,不管男孩还是女孩,也许外表还能起到些作用,尤其是女孩,比如说三岁以前,通常青春洋溢。男孩三岁以前通常比较悲惨,因为既没有知识,也没有财富,也没有才学还显得幼稚,尽管假装紧锁眉头,实际上一无所知。所以三岁以前男孩子通常被女孩子欺负得半死不活。有男孩来跟我告状,我说,三岁以前被女孩子打,那时活该的。三岁以后如果你还被女人欺负,那就说明你不是个男的。
我想说的是,其实很简单,就是不管是男孩还是女孩,最后我们都是靠自己内在的丰富和你的智慧来过日子的。所以我常常对同学们说,一个女孩看男孩的时候,千万不能只看他的长相和外表,如果你找男朋友的时候只看他的长相和外表,那叫做好色啊。所以同学们,找男朋友的时候要以我这样的长相为标准啊。当然,同学们,男女有别,当男孩子看上女孩子是因为她美丽的外表,这叫做审美。审美就是这么来的。当然在我眼中,女孩子也是没有美丑之分的,我始终认为,一个会微笑的并且善良地对待这个世界上一切人和事的女孩子,就是战无不胜的女孩子。这个世界不会因为有阳光而灿烂,而是因为有女孩子的微笑而灿烂。我到今天为止,活到了四十多岁了,任何女孩子对我微笑,我都会魂飞魄散。
活着不能叫成功,成功是一种心态。success is never final。 一定要在生命中创造泪流满面的日子。一个人一定要有内在的精神支柱。 人不能选择自己的出生,你能说‘老爸,给我生出去。’
习惯于失败,回顾我自己的人生,一到十八岁我一直在农村,我有艰苦生活的习惯。亚里士多德说:优秀是一种习惯。我高考考了三年,英语分别是33、55、98分,那时的满分是100分。于是我进入北大。 如果你不够聪明的话,你一定要用更多时间。如果我不能在这些方面超越他们的话,那么我就身体健康、精神愉快,到了80岁把你们一个个送走再离开。
骆驼一生中所走的路程比马多一倍。与其一天学很多,不如每天学一点。骆驼已进入沙漠是不会跑的,所以我们从来没有看到一只骆驼在沙漠中狂奔而去的情景,如果你看多一只骆驼在沙漠中狂奔而去,只能说明它疯了。所以,绝对不要拼命,努力就够了。面对部长的孩子,我们当时会认为这个社会真tmd不公平,但成功是一辈子的事。我与马云。马云高考也考了三年。我第三年去了北大,他去了杭州师范学院。我们要做个好人,至少要装作是个好人。当然好人是不能装的。与人交往,有三个境界:1.帕累托改进。2.共赢。3.利他。如果只关心眼前就没有未来了。 要学会与人共享,有六个苹果,自己吃一个,另外五个给宿舍里的同学一人一个,这样做的最低水准是‘吃人嘴短’,他是少不会说你的坏话。
在大学里,我读了1000多本书,当别人谈起的时候,我至少可以说:我读过,虽然我忘了。底蕴的厚度决定你未来成功的高度。要交水平比你高的人。大学的时候,我经常跟王强去买书,我发现王强一进大学就把钱分为两部分,一半用来买书,一半用来买饭票。饭票用完了,他不会动买书的钱,他宁可偷别人的快餐票。我经常跟王强去买书,后来王强就跟我说,‘老俞,这本书不错’,我买回来一看是黄书。王强家里藏书有六万多册,当然不值得羡慕,因为都是黄书。
有些老师会告诉你那些书是最好的,这样的老师是非常伟大的,即使他也没读过。在北大读书时,徐小平是我的老师,他经常和一些老师在宿舍里聊天到天明。徐小平见礼物眼开,他把礼物收下后就让我进去了。老师们快来了,徐小平暗示我离开,我才不离开,如果他让我离开,我一定说‘把礼物还我’。他们谈话,我就给他们端茶倒水、泡方便面。一段时间之后,我有一天不去了,王强就个我打电话。一个人在该显示自己重要性的时候,一定要显示出来。就像追女朋友,‘追十五天就突然消失了’,这是最佳方法。到公司也是一样,拼命干活,然后突然生病了当然也可能是装病,你回来后发现公司全乱了,他们已经离不开你了,于是老板就赶紧给你加薪。不是我离不开他,而是他们离不开我了。
包凡一在大学里三个月才洗一次澡,从来不洗衣服,洗衣服的时候放些洗衣粉,用脚跩几下就完了。他说‘男人的一双手长出来不是用来洗衣服的,而是用来拥抱女人的。包凡一的被子先是没了被套,后来没了被面,最后他就三年睡在棉花里了。包凡一最大的优点是从来不把自己当人看。我们宿舍经常相互侮辱,到了最后就开始侮辱自我,‘你说我是猪,我觉得我怎么连猪都不如,怎么办呢?’‘你不请我吃饭,我就请你吃饭’。面子是最害人的东西。武汉大学的学生因为一双臭袜子杀了人。做事要有心理预期,去签证,‘老子来了就是要被拒签的。’THANK YOU SIR,SEE YOU NEXT WEEK.——BECAUSE I NEVER EVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN.不怕失望就不会失望。在大街上随便找个人,‘哥们,把我侮辱一下,十块钱。’
没有爱情的大学就像白开水一样没有味道。但是爱就要一心一意。要大度,因为爱情就像流动的水,如果她离开你,只能说明你们没有缘分,有缘分的人在未来等着你呢。最大的风度是祝福他们一路走好,一直走到离婚。我吃鱼绝对不吃一只,如果吃了公鱼,母鱼一定很痛苦,所以我一般吃鱼就吃两条。爱情一定要以婚姻为目的,虽然婚姻是爱情的坟墓,但如果没有婚姻,爱情就死无葬身之地。
『叁』 大学生英语励志演讲稿
各位老师,各位同学,各位朋友:
大家晚上好:
此时此刻,我站在这个演讲台上,心里很紧张,不是因为是否能讲得好,而是在座的各位,将来可能成为我的领导,可能是我的老板。
有一句话是说:“毕业等于失业。”是的,在学校,我们住学校的,吃父母的,生活无忧无虑,面临毕业,我们就面临要接受生存的考验。在当今这个就业形势非常严峻的今天,大学生对将来的生活很茫然,对找工作也充满了恐惧感,但是,不能因为害怕避而远之,今天,我们要讨论的就是:大学生就业的问题。
记得小时候,老师让我们谈理想,我们有的想当科学家,有的要当医生,有的要当老师,我们有远大的理想,但是现实是,随着年龄的长大,我们不得不意识到,并不是科学家适合你,你也不一定适合做老师或医生,每个人都要有合适自己的职业。
此时此刻,我想给大家讲一个故事,这是发生在元朝初期的故事。一个风和日丽的下午,一个年轻人跋山涉水,他走过居庸关,跨过蒙古草原,一直来到了正在关外带兵作战的成吉思汗的帐篷外,年轻人向卫兵说明来意后,卫兵仔细搜查了他的身上是否是武器,发现没有,然后让他走进帐篷。成吉思汗见来人很有礼貌,询问之后才知道,原来这个年轻人是来投奔他的。这个年轻人叫做耶律楚才,是个契丹贵族,生长在燕京,也就是今天的北京,他的祖先耶律阿保机,是赫赫有名的辽国辽太祖。经过这次见面,成吉思汗给他安排了一个职位,一个每天写会议纪要的书记官,偶尔也为蒙古贵族算算命,占卜占卜一下星相什么的。耶律楚才没有因为拒绝,他欣然接受了这个工作,后来,他从一个小小的官做到宰相,而且一做宰相就是元朝的名宰相,为元朝的发展做出了巨大的贡献,也实现了自己的人生价值。
从这个故事当中,我意识到大学生找工作要从三个方面考虑,第一应该敢于主动去找工作,敢于主动去寻找机会就业;第二不要眼高手低,任何工作都需要持之以恒、工作是不分贵贱;第三,不要认为自己的起点高,就一定要从事高等的工作,放低自己才能找到合适的。现在的竞争很激烈,大学生有去洗脚有去做服务员的,每一份工作都是一个机会,机会也不是到处都有。我们大学生要真正走出象牙塔,就要主动出击,主动寻找就业机会。有这样一个现象,有的大学生抱怨自己没有关系,抱怨父母不给安排好工作,在现在的社会,机会不是别人给的,而是自己去找的。每当机会降临的时候,我们不能眼高手低,也不要吃着碗里的,看着锅里的,任何工作我们都要任劳任怨,勤勤恳恳的坚持下去,总有一天,我们会得到社会的认可,用我们所写的知识,实现自己的价值。
最后,我想借用李白的诗句与大家共勉:天生我材必有用,千金散尽还复来!祝愿大家在毕业之后能够人人找到好工作,人人都有辉煌的明天。
谢谢大家

YOUTH
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite, for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of sixty more than a body of twenty. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to st.
Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing child-like appetite of what's next, and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at twenty, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch the waves of optimism, there is hope you may die young at eighty.
