At his trial in 1964, Nelson Mandela closed his statement from the dock saying, "I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be...
Thank you Oxford, and thank you Oxford Union. 感谢牛津大学，感谢牛津大学联合会。 It is truly an honor and a privilege to be here today and that you have afforded me this opportunity to speak to you. 今天有机会到此为各位做演讲，我感到无比荣幸。 I must confess, I am somewhat mystified as to why you are here. Because there won't be any singing, any hip-shaking. What so ever...
But I had a childhood, and I was allowed to make mistakes and find my own way in the world without the glare of the spotlight. 我是有童年的，而我也可以在镁光灯照不到的、属于我的世界里犯错和做我自己。 When I first heard that Michael had died, I was in London, days away from the opening of my tour. Michael was going to perform in the same venue as me a week later. All I could ...
And then, at the point of the wedding when there was the first dance, basically, we had to joke that we were the mother and father of the bride. Yes, it may have seemed very odd to the outside, but we made it fun and we made it real. When he started wearing the glove, I was like, "What's up with the glove?". I'm like. "Look, if you are going to hold my...
President Faust, members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers, members of the faculty, proud parents, and, above all, graduates: 尊敬的福斯特校长，哈佛集团的各位成员，监督理事会的各位理事，各位老师，各位自豪的家长，尤其是毕业生们： The first thing I would like to say is "thank you". Not only has Harvard given me an extraordinary honour, but the wee...
As long as I live I shall remember walking along an empty corridor and suddenly hearing, from behind a closed door, a scream of pain and horror such as I have never heard since. The door opened, and the researcher poked out her head and told me to run and make a hot drink for the young man sitting with her. She had just given him the news that in retaliation for his own outs...
I can remember a game coming out of the basketball court; we were down five to ten points. And I go off about 25 points, we come back to win the game. As we walked out the floor and Tex looked me and said "you know, there is 'I' in 'team'." I said "there is not 'I' in 'team', but there is 'I' in 'win'." I th...
And because I had been on the squad in high school, earnest full-throated cheerleading was my specialty so that's what I did. But now, I feel like I know about 1/16 of what that young woman knew. Things don't seem as certain today. Now I'm 60. I have four adult children who are all facing the same challenges that you are. How it makes things tough for your family...
The emergence of low-cost personal computers gave rise to a powerful network that has transformed opportunities for learning and communicating. 低成本的个人电脑的出现，使得一个强大的互联网诞生，它为学习和交流提供了很大的机会。 The magical thing about this network is not just that it collapses distance and makes everyone your neighbor. It also dramatically increases the numbe...
Buss Peterson, My roommate. When I first met Buss, all I heard about was that this kid from Ashville North Carolina was clearly unplayed against but he has never played against me then, so how do you come to be the player of the year? Is that some type of media, exposure, you know I came from Wiilmington, you know, where two channels, channel ABC, and channel NBC that I neve...
Fear will get the worst of the best of us and peddlers of influence count on that. Throughtout our nation's constant struggle to create a more perfect union, establish justice and ensure our domestic tranquility, we battle fear from outside our borders and from within our own hearts every day of our history. 恐惧能造成最糟糕的后果，而那些好生事的人就赖这个活着。我们不断...
Fear is whispered in our ears and shouted in our faces. Faith must be fostered by the man or woman you see every day in the mirror. The former forever snaps at our heels and our synapses and delays our course. The latter can spur our book heels to be wandering, stimulate our creativity, and drive us forward. 恐惧在我们耳畔低吟，在我们面前咆哮。信念必须由你每天在镜子里看到的...
Mr. Behring says that most of us think that a wheelchair would be a confinement, but to millions of people it is not a confinement, it is freedom, freedom to move and to go to school, freedom to vote, freedom to get a job, and freedom for hope for the future. He has given freedom ad wheelchairs to 400,000 people around the world. The individual can make a difference. 贝林先...
You graduates came to Harvard at a different time. You know more about the world's inequities than the classes that came before. In your years here, I hope you've had a chance to think about how-in this age of accelerating technology-we can finally take on these inequities, and we can solve them. 在座的各位同学，你们是在与我不同的时间来到哈佛的。你们比以前的学生更多...
In the actual news story that news broadcast was this: a certain supply of hamburger, which's found to have a bit too much of a particular bacteria. In that, and for safety sake, it's been taken off the market. That same hamburger was slated for sale to an out-of-state school system for its cafeterias, but it was we called ying-tang. So answering that news programs o...
Don't let complexity stop you. Be activists. Take on the big inequities. I feel sure it will be one of the great experiences of your lives. 不要让这个世界的复杂性阻碍你前进。要成为一个行动主义者。将解决人类的不平等视为己任。我敢肯定它将成为你生命中最重要的经历之一。 You graduates are coming of age in an amazing time. As you leave Harvard, you have technology that members...
And the door into this emotion shift is empathy. As Jung said, emotion is the chief source of becoming conscious. There can be no transforming of lightness into dark of apathy into movement without emotion. Or as Leonard Cohen says, "Pay attention to the cracks because that's where the light gets in." You, young women of Barnard have not had to squeeze yourself...
Well, the rest is history. After Terminator 3, I became the highest paid movie star in Hollywood. And let me tell you something, it continued on. Even when I ran for governor people said, "Arnold, you will never make it. You will never become governor of California. What do you know about government?" Well, the fact is, I knew exactly as much about government as th...
In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted-for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of thin...
I am optimistic that we can do this, but I talk to skeptics who claim there is no hope. They say: "Inequity has been with us since the beginning, and will be with us till the end-because people just don't care." I completely disagree. 在这个问题上，我是乐观的，我可以做到。但是，我也遇到过那些感到绝望的怀疑主义者。他们说：“不平等从人类诞生的第一天就存在，到人类...
