Obviously you've seen my kids Jeffery, Marcus and Jasmine. I love you guys. I think you guys represent a lot of me and a lot of different personalities as your mom, you represent them as well. You know, I think you guys have a heavy burdens. I wouldn't want to be you guys if I had to. You know, because all the expectations you have to deal with. I mean, look around y...
The problem is not just the plane crash, but the millions of preventable deaths. 显然，问题不是这次空难，而是几百万可以预防的死亡事件。 We don't read much about these deaths. The media covers what's new-and millions of people dying is nothing new. So it stays in the background, where it's easier to ignore. But even when we do see it or read about it, it's dif...
And it didn't stop there. My competitive natures went right into the pros, I get to the Bulls which I was very proud of. At the time Jerry Reinsdorf didn't own the team. It was another organization. Reinsdorf drafted me. kevin Loughery was my first coach. Kevin used to take practice and put me in starting fvie. You know, he made a competitive thing where the losing t...
I know you guys have got to go. I know I've been up here a lot longer than I told my friends I was gonna up here, I cried, I was supposed to get up, and say "Thank you" and walked off and I am not able to do that. So I appreciate it. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. As I close, the game basketball has been everything to me, my refuge, my place I've alw...
This is a huge deal because as people in the movie business know the absolute hardest thing in the whole world is to persuade a straight male audience to identify with a woman protagonist to feel themselves embodied by her. This, more than any other factor, explains why we get the movies we get and the paucity of the roles where women drive the film. It's much easier for...
Speaking from 54 years' experience, the world towards a more perfect union is a never-ending concern that involves each every one of us. Evidence that our nation is becoming a better place is everywhere. But each new day, fear is, as the Jersey poet said, lurking in the darkness of the edge of dawn. Your rising from bed every morning will give fear its chance to grow str...
Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism not just with missiles and tanks, but with sturdy alliances and enduring convictions. They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our examp...
Some in my country fear that China's research and development will overtake America's, but I believe that America and the world will benefit from China's scientific and technological advances. I think we will benefit from that. If China makes advances in stem cell research, the rest of the world will benefit from that.If China discovers an energy breakthrough, th...
This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed-why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent mall, and why a man whose father less than sixty years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath. 这就是我们的自由和我们坚守的信条具有的意义——说明了为什么各...
And my last example and the last one you guys probably have seen. I hate to do it to him. He is such a nice guy. When I first met Bryon Russell, John and Karl, I remember it was in Chicago in 1994, I was working out for baseball and they all came down for workout and shooting around. I came over and say "Hello", and at this time I had no thoughts of coming back and...
If you believe that every life has equal value, it's revolting to learn that some lives are seen as worth saving and others are not. We said to ourselves: "This can't be true. But if it is true, it deserves to be the priority of our giving." 如果你认为生命都是平等的，那么当你发现某些生命被挽救了，而另一些生命被放弃了，你会感到无法接受。我们对自己说：“事情不...
Ten years ago, we busied ourselves with tribute stuff in building with the importance then came 911. In 1991, riches were created in new businesses that never existed, then economic ballon burst. In 81, I had a great job on TV. And in 82, Bosom Buddy was cancelled. In 71, color TV in more living rooms that every showed young Americans still fighting in combat with Vietnam in...
Some advantages, particularly to this age, are not to be denied. Boredom seems to have been "vanquished"! There is always something to do, but hasn't this translated into a perpetual distraction in our lives? In the bathroom, at the dinner table, in the backseat, at wedding, at embrace, at graduation day. It's always, something to check, something to tweet,...
Often men my age, President Clinton, by the way, when I met him said–Men my age, mention that character as their favorite of all the women I've played. And I have my own secret understanding of why that is and it confirms every decision I made in high school. This is not to denigrate that girl, by the way, or the men who are drawn to her in anyway because she's...
Empathy is at the heart of the actor's art. And in high school, another form of acting took hold of me. I wanted to learn how to be appealing. So I studied the character I imagined I wanted to be that of the generically pretty high school girl and I researched her deeply, that is to say shallowly, in Vogue, in Seventeen, and in Mademoiselle Magazines. I tried to imitate ...
Still, I'm optimistic. Yes, inequity has been with us forever, but the new tools we have to cut through complexity have not been with us forever. They are new-they can help us make the most of our caring-and that's why the future can be different from the past. 同前面一样，在这个问题上，我依然是乐观的。不错，人类的不平等有史以来一直存在，但是那些能够化繁为简的新工具...
Well, this cumbered pilgrim's mind and he feared death no longer. The wise man turned to the second pilgrim and said, "What is it you fear, my friend?" 这除去了这位受苦的朝圣者心中的恐惧，他不再害怕死亡。此时，智者转向第二个朝圣者，并说道：“你有什么恐惧，我的朋友？” "I fear my new neighbors," said the second pilgrim, "They are strangers who obser...
To the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect. To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society's ills on the West, know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy. To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know th...
So actually there is a Big Brother. But he's not a malevolent fiction, he's actually all of us and he lives in our search engines. So no matter how many times I do the calculations, I come up with a social job, the positives bounce the negatives, the axis equal the wise, and our hopes weigh as much as our fears, but I hesitated on that last one because fear, good lor...
Recently, as you probably maybe have read, Rosa Parks, a former seamstress married to a barber, married to a hairdresser, died, and she lay in honor in the Rotunda of the U.S. Capital in Washington. People from around America came to say farewell to her and to thank her for changing our history and for changing our society. Now, what did this 92 year-old black woman do that ...
