奥巴马就职后的第一次演讲稿

奥巴马就职演说全文2009年01月21日Barack Obama’s Inaugural AddressMy fellow citizens:I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America’s decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met.On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.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 things - some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life.For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sanh.Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology’s wonders to raise health care’s quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. And all this we will do.Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions - who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this country has already done; what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage.What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them - that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply. The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works - whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no, programs will end. And those of us who manage the public’s dollars will be held to account - to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of day - because only then can we restore the vital trust between a people and their government.Nor is the question before us whether the market is a force for good or ill. Its power to generate wealth and expand freedom is unmatched, but this crisis has reminded us that without a watchful eye, the market can spin out of control - and that a nation cannot prosper long when it favors only the prosperous. The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our Gross Domestic Product, but on the reach of our prosperity; on our ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart - not out of charity, but because it is the surest route to our common good.As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our Founding Fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience’s sake. And so to all other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman, and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more.Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism 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 example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.We are the keepers of this legacy. Guided by these principles once more, we can meet those new threats that demand even greater effort - even greater cooperation and understanding between nations. We will begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people, and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan. With old friends and former foes, we will work tirelessly to lessen the nuclear threat, and roll back the specter of a warming planet. We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defense, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions - who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this country has already done; what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage.What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them - that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply.

We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defense, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus - and non-believers. We are shaped by every language and culture, drawn from every end of this Earth; and because we have tasted the bitter swill of civil war and segregation, and emerged from that dark chapter stronger and more united, we cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself; and that America must play its role in ushering in a new era of peace.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 that you are on the wrong side of history; but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds. And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to suffering outside our borders; nor can we consume the world’s resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.As we consider the road that unfolds before us, we remember with humble gratitude those brave Americans who, at this very hour, patrol far-off deserts and distant mountains. They have something to tell us today, just as the fallen heroes who lie in Arlington whisper through the ages. We honor them not only because they are guardians of our liberty, but because they embody the spirit of service; a willingness to find meaning in something greater than themselves. And yet, at this moment - a moment that will define a generation - it is precisely this spirit that must inhabit us all.For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies. It is the kindness to take in a stranger when the levees break, the selflessness of workers who would rather cut their hours than see a friend lose their job which sees us through our darkest hours. It is the firefighter’s courage to storm a stairway filled with smoke, but also a parent’s willingness to nurture a child, that finally decides our fate.Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends - hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility - a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task.This is the price and the promise of citizenship.This is the source of our confidence - the knowledge that God calls on us to shape an uncertain destiny.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.So let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled. In the year of America’s birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river. The capital was abandoned. The enemy was advancing. The snow was stained with blood. At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people:Let it be told to the future world...that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive...that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet [it].America. In the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children’s children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God’s grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.

奥巴马竞选演讲稿 中文

My fellow citizens:I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.同胞们,我今天站在这里,因为面前的任务而感到谦卑,因为你们的信任而心存感激,同时铭记先辈们做所出的巨大牺牲。

感谢布什总统为这个国家做出的贡献,同时也谢谢他在整个政权交接期间表现出的慷慨与合作。

Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.迄今已经有44名美国人宣誓就任总统。

这些誓词曾出现在繁荣的上升趋势和如水般平静的和平中,当然,也经常会出现在乌云密布和狂风暴雨之时。

在这各种时刻,美国一直在继续前行,这不仅仅是因为执政的技巧或者有先见之明,而是因为我们的人民一直在坚守先辈们的理想,忠实履行我们的建国宣言。

So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.过去是这样,这一代的美国人仍将会坚持这样做。

That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.众所周知,我们目前正处在危机之中。

我们的国家正在对暴力和仇恨宣战。

我们的经济也被严重削弱,这是一些人贪婪和不负责任的后果,但在做出艰难 选择和准备迎接新时代方面,我们出现了集体性的失误。

房屋失去了;工作丢掉了;商业萧条了;我们的卫生保健耗资巨大;我们太多的学校不合格;每天都能找到 更多的证据表明我们利用能源的方式使得对手更加强大,并且威胁到了我们整个星球。

These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America’s decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights. Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met.这些数据和统计都是危机的表现特征。

虽然无法具备测量,但产生的深远影响是我们的信心受到了侵蚀–担心美国的衰退不可避免,担心下一代会降低 他们的期待。

今天我要向你们说的是,我们面临的挑战是真实存在的。

这些挑战很多,而且非常严重,它们不会轻易地或者在短时间内就能得以解决。

但大家也必须 认识到,美国,终将会解决这些困难。

On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.今天,我们聚集在这里,是因为我选择用希望来战胜恐惧,用团结来战胜冲突与分歧。

On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.今天,我们来到这里将结束悲戚和错误的承诺,抛弃指责和教条主 义这些扼杀我们政治的东西。

We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.我们仍然是一个年轻的国家,但现在应该摒弃充满孩子气的行为,重申我们不朽的精神;选择我们更好的历史;宏扬那些珍贵而且高尚 的理念,并将这一代一代地传递下去。

上帝认为天下众生皆平等,众生皆自由,而且都应该拥有的机会。

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 things - some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.在重申我们国家的伟大时,我们必须明白,伟大绝对不会是一种馈赠,而是要靠我们去努力争取。

我们的征途从来没有捷径,也不属于那些胆怯懦弱、消遣工作或者只追求财富名利的人。

For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life.为了我们,他们整理起自己不多的物品开始穿越大海寻找新的生活;For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.为了我们,他们在辛苦劳作,忍受着皮鞭的抽打并且 犁开坚硬的土地;For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sahn.为了我们,他们在诸如康科得、盖茨堡、诺曼底等等地方作战并献出生命。

Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.这些男男女女们不停地奋斗和牺牲,一直工作直到双手生疼,目的只是为了过上更好一些的生活。

在他们的眼中,美国比他们个人的报负更加重要,也比 所有出身、财富或者宗派之间的差别更加重要。

This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.这就是我们今天仍在继续的征程。

我们仍然是世界上最繁荣、最强大的国家。

当这场危机开始后,我们工人的生产力 并没有下降;我们的思想也没有失去创造力;我们现在需要的商品和服务,并没有比上周、上月或者去年减少;我们的生产力并没有降低。

从今天开始,我们必须振 作起来,拂去身上的灰尘,重新开始振兴美国。

For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology’s wonders to raise health care’s quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. And all this we will do.环视周围,到处是要做的工作。

目前的经济状况要求我们采取大胆和迅速的行动,我们将采取行动,不仅是创造新的工作岗位,而且是为经济的增长奠定 新的基石。

我们将建设道路和桥梁、电网和数字网络,它们将为我们的商业活动服务,把我们联系在一起。

我们将使科学回归其位,应用科学技术来提高医疗的质量 并降低其费用。

我们将利用太阳能、风能、潮汐能来驱动我们的汽车,运营我们的工厂。

我们将变革、学院和大学以满足新时代的需求。

这些是我们能够 做的,我们将做这一切。

奥巴马就职演讲稿

楼上的是竞选胜利演讲,不对啊。

[size]My fellow citizens: 各位同胞: I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition. 今天我站在这里,为眼前的重责大任感到谦卑,对各位的信任心怀感激,对先贤的牺牲铭记在心。

我要谢谢布什总统为这个国家的服务,也感 谢他在政权转移期间的宽厚和配合。

Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents. 四十四位美国人发表过总统就职誓言,这些誓词或是在繁荣富强及和平宁静之际发表,或是在乌云密布,时局动荡之时。

在艰困的时候,美国 能箕裘相继,不仅因为居高位者有能力或愿景,也因为人民持续对先人的抱负有信心,也忠于创建我国的法统。

So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans. 因此,美国才能承继下来。

因此,这一代美国人必须承继下去。

That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet. 现在大家都知道我们正置身危机核心,我国正处于对抗深远暴力和憎恨的战争。

我们的经济元气大伤,是某些人贪婪且不负责任的后果,也是 大众未能做出艰难的选择,为国家进入新时代做淮备所致。

许多人失去房子,丢了工作,生意垮了。

我们的医疗照护太昂贵,学校教育辜负了 许多人。

每天都有更多证据显示,我们利用能源的方式壮大我们的对敌,威胁我们的星球。

These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America’s decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights. 这些都是得自资料和统计数据的危机指标。

比较无法测量但同样深沉的,是举国信心尽失—持续担心美国将无可避免地衰退,也害怕下一代一 定会眼界变低。

Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met. 今天我要告诉各位,我们面临的挑战是真的,挑战非常严重,且不在少数。

它们不是可以轻易,或在短时间内解决。

但是,美国要了解,这些 挑战会被解决。

On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord. 在这一天,我们聚在一起,因为我们选择希望而非恐惧,有意义的团结而非纷争和不合。

On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics. 在这一天,我们来此宣示,那些无用的抱怨和虚伪的承诺已终结,那些扭曲我们政治已久的相互指控和陈旧教条已终结。

We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness. 我们仍是个年轻的国家,但借用圣经的话,摆脱幼稚事物的时刻到来了,重申我们坚忍精神的时刻到来了,选择我们更好的历史,实践那种代 代传承的珍贵权利,那种高贵的理念:就是上帝的应许,我们每个人都是平等的,每个人都是自由的,每个人都应该有机会追求全然的幸福。

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 things - some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom. 再次肯定我们国家的伟大,我们了解伟大绝非赐予而来,必须努力达成。

我们的旅程从来就不是抄捷径或很容易就满足。

这条路一直都不是给 不勇敢的人走的,那些偏好逸乐胜过工作,或者只想追求名利就满足的人。

恰恰相反,走这条路的始终是勇于冒险的人,做事的人,成事的人 ,其中有些人很出名,但更常见的是在各自岗位上的男男女女无名英雄,在这条漫长崎区的道路上支撑我们,迈向繁荣与自由。

For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life. 为了我们,他们携带很少的家当,远渡重洋,追寻新生活。

For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth. 为了我们,他们胼手胝足,在西部安顿下来;忍受风吹雨打,筚路蓝缕。

For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sanh. 为了我们,他们奋斗不懈,在康科特和盖茨堡,诺曼地和溪山等地葬身。

Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction. 前人不断的奋斗与牺牲,直到双手皮开肉绽,我们才能享有比较好的生活。

他们将美国视为大于所有个人企图心总和的整体,超越出身、财富 或小圈圈的差异。

This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America. 这是我们今天继续前进的旅程。

我们仍旧是全球最繁荣强盛的国家。

这场危机爆发时,我们的劳工生产力并未减弱。

我们的心智一样创新,我 们的产品和劳务和上周或上个月或去年相比,一样是必需品。

我们的能力并未减损。

但是我们墨守成规、维护狭小利益、推迟引人不悦的决定 ,这段时期肯定已经过去。

从今天起,我们必须重新出发、再次展开再造美国的工程。

For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology’s wonders to raise health care’s quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. And all this we will do. 我们无论朝何处望去,都有工作必须完成。

经济情势需要大胆、迅速的行动,我们将有所行动,不光是创造新工作,更要奠定成长的新基础。

我们将造桥铺路,为企业兴建电力网格与数位线路,将我们联系在一起。

我们将让科学回归合适的用途,运用科技的奇迹来提高医疗品质并降 低费用。

我们将利用太阳能、风力和土壤作为汽车的燃料和工厂的能源。

我们将让中小学及大专院校转型,因应新时代的需要。

这些我们可以 作到。

我们也将会作到。

  (巴拉克•奥巴马(Barack Obama)于2009年1月20日宣誓就职美国第44任总统)  My fellow citizens:  I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.  同胞们:  我今天站在这里,深感面前使命的重大,深谢你们赋予的信任,并铭记我们前辈所付的代价。

我感谢布什总统对国家的贡献以及他在整个过渡阶段给予的大度合作。

  Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because we the people have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebears, and true to our founding documents.  至此,有四十四个美国人发出总统誓言。

这些字词曾在蒸蒸日上的繁荣时期和宁静安详的和平年代诵读。

但是间或,它们也响彻在阴云密布、风暴降临的时刻。

美国能够历经这些时刻而勇往直前,不仅因为当政者具有才干或远见,而且也因为“我们人民”始终坚信我们先辈的理想,对我们的建国理念忠贞不渝。

  So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.  这是过来之路。

这是这一代美国的必由之路。

  That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.  我们处于危机之中,这一点已得到充分认识。

我国在进行战争,打击分布广泛的暴力和仇恨势力。

我们的经济严重衰弱,部分归咎于一些人的贪婪不轨,同时也因为我们作为一个整体,未能痛下决心,让国家作好面对新时代的准备。

如今,住房不再,就业减少,商业破产。

医疗保健费用过度昂贵;学校质量没有保障;而每一天都在不断显示,我们使用能源的方式在助长敌人的威风,威胁我们的星球。

  These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land — a nagging fear that America's decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.  这些是危机的迹象,数据统计将予以证明。

不易于衡量然而同样严重的是全国各地受动摇的信心——一种挥之不去的恐惧感,认为美国将不可避免地走下坡路,下一代人不得不放低眼光。

  Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America — they will be met.  今天,我告诉大家,我们面临的挑战真实存在,并且严重而多重。

它们不可能在一个短时间内被轻易征服。

但是,美国,请记住这句话——它们将被征服。

  On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.  我们今天聚集在这里是因为我们选择希望而不是恐惧,选择齐心协力而不是冲突对立。

  On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.  我们今天在这里宣告,让斤斤计较与虚假承诺就此结束,让窒息我国政治为时太久的相互指责和陈词滥调就此完结。

  (亲爱的黑人兄弟在看就职典礼)  We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.  我们仍是一个年轻的国家,但用圣经的话说,现在是抛弃幼稚的时侯了。

现在应是我们让永恒的精神发扬光大的时侯,应是选择创造更佳历史业绩的时侯,应是将代代相传的宝贵财富、崇高理想向前发展的时侯:上帝赋予所有人平等、所有人自由和所有人充分追求幸福的机会。

  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 shortcuts 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 things — some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.  在重申我们国家伟大精神的同时,我们懂得,伟大从非天生,而是必须赢得。

我们的历程从来不是走捷径或退而求其次的历程。

它不是弱者的道路——它不属于好逸恶劳或只图名利享受的人;这条路属于冒险者,实干家,创造者——有些人享有盛名,但大多数是默默无闻耕耘劳作的男女志士,是他们带我们走向通往繁荣和自由的漫长崎岖之路。

  For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life.  为了我们,他们打点起贫寒的行装上路,远涉重洋,追求新生活。

  For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.  为了我们,他们在血汗工厂劳作,在西部原野拓荒,忍着鞭笞之痛在坚硬的土地上耕耘。

  For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sanh.  为了我们,他们奔赴疆场,英勇捐躯,长眠于康科德、葛底斯堡、诺曼底和溪山。

  Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.  为了我们能够过上更好的生活,他们前赴后继,历尽艰辛,全力奉献,不辞劳苦,直至双手结起层层老茧。

他们看到的美国超越了我们每一个人的雄心壮志,也超越了所有种族、财富或派系的差异。

  This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions — that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.  今天,作为后来者,我们踏上了这一未竟的旅程。

我们依然是地球上最繁荣、最强大的国家。

我们的劳动者的创造力并没有因为眼前的这场危机而减弱。

我们的头脑依然像以往那样善于发明创新。

我们的产品与服务仍旧像上星期、上个月或去年一样受人欢迎。

我们的能力丝毫无损。

但是,维持现状、保护狭隘的利益集团、推迟困难的抉择的时代无疑已成为过去。

从今天起,我们必须振作起来,扫除我们身上的尘土,重新开启再造美国的事业。

  For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act — not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. All this we will do.  无论我们把目光投向何处,都有工作在等待着我们。

经济形势要求我们果敢而迅速地行动,我们将不辱使命——不仅要创造新的就业机会,而且要打下新的增长基础。

我们将建造道路和桥梁,架设电网,铺设承载我们的商务和把我们紧密相连的电子通讯网络。

我们将恢复尊重科学的传统,利用高新技术的超常潜力提高医疗保健质量并降低成本。

我们将利用太阳能、风力和地热为车辆和工厂提供能源。

我们将改造我们的中小学和高等院校,以应对新时代的挑战。

这一切我们都能做到。

这一切我们必将做到。

  Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions — who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this country has already done; what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage.  现在,有人怀疑我们的雄心壮志——他们说我们的体制不能承受太多的宏伟规划。

他们的记忆是短暂的,因为他们忘记了这个国家已经取得的成就,忘记了一旦共同的目标插上理想的翅膀、现实的要求鼓起勇气的风帆,自由的人民就会爆发出无穷的创造力。

  What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them — that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply. The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works — whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no, programs will end. Those of us who manage the public's dollars will be held to account — to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of day — because only then can we restore the vital trust between a people and their government.  那些冷眼旁观的人没有认识到他们脚下的大地已经移动——那些长期以来空耗我们的精力的陈腐政治观点已经过时。

我们今天提出的问题不是我们的政府太大还是太小,而是它是否行之有效——它是否能够帮助人们找到报酬合理的就业机会,是否能够为他们提供费用适度的医疗保健服务,是否能够确保他们在退休后不失尊严。

如果回答是肯定的,我们就要向前推进。

如果回答是否定的,计划和项目必须终止。

作为公共资金的管理者,我们必须承担责任——明智地使用资金,抛弃坏习惯,在阳光下履行职责——因为只有这样我们才能恢复人民对政府的至关重要的信任。

  Nor is the question before us whether the market is a force for good or ill. Its power to generate wealth and expand freedom is unmatched, but this crisis has reminded us that without a watchful eye, the market can spin out of control — and that a nation cannot prosper long when it favors only the prosperous. The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our gross domestic product, but on the reach of our prosperity; on our ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart — not out of charity, but because it is the surest route to our common good.  我们提出的问题也不在于市场力量是替天行道还是为虎作伥。

市场在生成财富和传播自由方面具有无与伦比的力量,但这场危机提醒我们:没有严格的监督,市场就会失控——如果一个国家仅仅施惠于富裕者,其富裕便不能持久。

我们的经济成功从来不是仅仅依赖国内总产值的规模,而是还依赖繁荣的普及,即为每一位愿意致富的人提供机会的能力——不是通过施舍——因为这才是最可靠的共同富裕之路。

  (就职典礼)  As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our founding fathers ... our found fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience's sake. And so to all the other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman, and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more.  至于我们的共同防御,我们决不接受安全与理念不可两全的荒谬论点。

建国先贤面对我们难以想见的险恶局面,起草了一部保障法治和人权的宪章,一部子孙后代以自己的鲜血使之更加完美的宪章。

今天,这些理念仍然照耀着世界,我们不会为一时之利而弃之。

因此,对于今天正在观看此情此景的其他各国人民和政府——从最繁华的首都到我父亲出生的小村庄——我们希望他们了解:凡追求和平与尊严的国家以及每一位男人、妇女和儿童,美国是你们的朋友。

我们已经做好准备,再一次走在前面。

奥巴马最著名的演讲是哪一次?

是不同时期起到不同作用的演讲,你看喜欢篇吧。

第一篇 The Audacity of Hope有希望则无所畏惧奥巴马在美国民主党全国代表大会上的主题演讲,是令奥巴马从美国一个小州(伊利诺伊州)走向白宫的一次具有里程碑意义的重要演讲。

本次演讲对于时年43岁的奥巴马来说也是一次重大考验,是一个向全党、全国及全世界推销自己的绝好机会,成功则能威名远扬,失败则可能会黯然退出民主党的政治中心。

事实证明奥巴马没有辜负民主党元老们的重托,演讲取得了巨大成功,为其在党内的地位奠定了坚实的基础,也为其以后的大选奠定了基础。

第二篇 Change Is Coming to America变革正向美国走来这是奥巴马在艾奥瓦州初选获胜的演讲。

奥巴马进行此番演讲时,两党的选情都呈胶着状态,民主党方面尤其如此。

前第一夫人希拉里·克林顿与参议员巴拉克·奥巴马短兵相接,在不同的民意调查中分别领先。

奥巴马在艾奥瓦州的胜出对于年轻气盛但经验远远不够丰富的他来说不亚于久旱后的甘雨,来得恰是时候。

开局的胜利让奥巴马踌躇满志,信心倍增,因此他1月3日的胜选演讲可谓如行云流水,一气呵成,气势如虹,气吞山河,而在场的上千名观众听得也是如醉如痴,欢声雷动。

第三篇 A More Perfect Union更加完善的联邦这是奥巴马在宾夕法尼亚州费城发表的演讲,也是他在参选以后第一次就种族问题发表公开演讲。

2008年初的初选过程中,奥巴马皈依的芝加哥圣三位一体联合基督教教会牧师赖特以前在布道时发表的一些仇恨白人和反美的激情演讲片段被媒体公布,全国顿时一片哗然,奥巴马顿时陷入严重的信任危机。

3月18日,奥巴马在费城美国宪法中心发表了此篇深入探讨美国种族问题的演讲,获得好评如潮,成功地走出了信任危机。

本篇译文参考了王道余先生发表在互联网上的译文,在此向他致谢。

第四篇 Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.缅怀马丁·路德·金这番演讲发表于印第安纳州纪念马丁·路德·金遇刺40周年的集会上。

在此番演讲中,奥巴马号召美国人民继续金博士终生追求的事业——追求社会正义和经济正义,并指出要实现马丁·路德·金的美国梦还有很长的路要走。

本文大量引用了马丁·路德·金在被刺杀前夕的布道演讲“I've been to the mountaintop”。

第五篇 Yes We Can是的,我们能本次演讲是奥巴马在北卡罗来纳州初选获胜的感言,地点是在北卡罗来纳州州立大学的雷诺兹体育馆。

从1月3日初选开始以来,为赢取党内提名,奥巴马和希拉里展开了旷日持久、势均力敌的争夺战,两大选举阵营投入了大量人力和物力进行选举宣传战,彼此互有攻击。

但因为希拉里在选举人票数上一直落后于奥巴马,所以她的选举阵营就加大了对奥巴马的攻击力度。

在本次演讲中,奥巴马强调了民主党要团结一致对抗共和党候选人麦凯恩。

第六篇 The Future Lies Ahead未来就在前方这是奥巴马于2008年5月25日在康涅狄格州的卫斯理公会大学毕业生典礼上的演讲稿。

演讲人原定的是参议员Edward M. Kennedy,但由于他被诊断患有恶性脑瘤而送院治疗,奥巴马临危受命代替肯尼迪前往演讲,同时接受该校为其授予的名誉法学博士学位。

在本次演讲中,奥巴马敦促毕业生要积极投身于社区服务工作。

The Atlantic杂志资深记者、曾任美国前总统吉米·卡特首席白宫讲稿撰写人的James Fallows曾对奥巴马的本篇演讲稿大加赞赏,认为奥巴马“has gotten better at the necessary poetry of ceremonial speaking” 并且“passed that test”。

该演讲必将成为毕业典礼演讲的典范。

第七篇 Their Lives Are a Model for Us All他们是我们学习的榜样这是奥巴马2008年5月26日在阵亡将士纪念日集会上的演讲,地点为美国新墨西哥州,听众中大部分为军人。

Memorial Day是美国大多数州都要纪念的节日,时间为5月的最后一个星期一。

美国总统同时也是三军总司令,所以争取得到军人的支持尤显重要,奥巴马利用阵亡将士纪念日向美国军人表示敬意,一方面是他真情的流露,另一方面也是选举的需要。

该篇演讲短小精悍,感人至深。

第八篇 Our Responsibility as Fathers父亲的责任奥巴马2008年6月15日在芝加哥南部的上帝使徒教堂参加周日礼拜(Sunday Services)时发表了演讲,该日正好是父亲节(6月的第三个周日)。

奥巴马结合自己的身世就父亲在家庭社会的责任发表演讲。

他批评美国父亲在家庭中父亲角色的缺失,敦促他们、尤其是黑人父亲在抚养子女方面承担起更多的责任。

奥巴马的这篇演讲获得普遍好评,加深了人们对他是个有责任感的总统候选人的印象。

从演讲中可以看出,他强调的竞争是一种“追求卓越”,同时又要兼具“同理心”的价值观。

他的强者观念是:“把别人击倒的人不是强者,把别人扶起来的人才是强者”。

第九篇 The America We Love我们所热爱的美国这是奥巴马2008年6月30日在杜鲁门总统的故乡密苏里州独立城所作的演讲。

自从奥巴马参选美国总统以来,竞争对手一直利用他非裔美国人的身份质疑并攻击他的爱国情怀,比如批评他没有佩戴国旗胸针、没有宣誓对美国效忠,攻击他唱国歌时没有把手放在胸口等等。

在这样真真假假的媒体攻势下,大批选民被蒙蔽,开始怀疑奥巴马是否是一个爱国者。

为此,奥巴马特意选择了7月4日美国国庆节到来之前发表本演讲,向美国选民表明他的爱国之心,同时向人们阐明何谓爱国,何谓不爱国。

第十篇 Veterans Should be Honored向老兵致敬奥巴马的选举力量来自基层民众,但是美国总统同时也是三军总司令,所以争取得到军人的支持尤显重要。

基于自己并没有在军队服过役,更没有对手麦凯恩的赫赫战功可以向世人炫耀,奥巴马利用美国国庆前夕向退伍军人表示敬意,这一方面是他真情的流露,另一方面也是选举的需要。

尽管美国北达科他州历来是共和党的天下,即所谓的红州,但奥巴马仍不放弃任何机会,充分发挥自己的演讲优势,第二次到该州演讲拉选票,他的竞选官员相信奥巴马有机会赢得该州的选票。

不过最后还是麦凯恩赢得了该州的选举人票。

第十一篇 The America's Promise美国的承诺2008年8月28日是美国民主党历史上值得大书特书的日子,因为在这一天奥巴马被正式提名为民主党的美国总统候选人,代表民主党参加2008年11月4日美国总统大选,这是美国历史上第一位获得党内提名参加总统大选的黑人。

本篇演讲是奥巴马在科罗拉多州丹佛市举行的民主党全国代表大会上正式接受提名时向在场的八万四千多名来自全国的民主党党员发表的里程碑式演讲。

可以说,至此奥巴马已经创造了历史。

第十二篇 Financial Crisis Requires Action金融危机需要我们行动起来这是2008年10月17日奥巴马在弗吉尼亚州罗阿诺克市的演讲,针对美国愈演愈烈的金融危机以及麦凯恩开出的治国政策,给出了自己的大政方针。

他用雄辩的事实和辛辣但不刺耳的语言有力回击了麦凯恩阵营的攻击。

有些共和党的死硬派听了奥巴马的演讲后也转变了立场,改为拥护奥巴马。

第十三篇 This Is Your Victory这是美国人民的胜利2008年11月4日,奥巴马成为美国历史上第一位黑人总统。

奥巴马当晚在其芝加哥的竞选总部向现场15000名支持者发表了胜选演讲,演讲谈古论今、旁征博引、气势磅礴、文采华丽,为奥巴马历时两年的竞选之路画上了圆满的句号。

第十四篇 New Era of Responsibility (Inaugural Speech)开创负责任的新时代(就职演说)2009年1月20日,近200万美国民众聚集在华盛顿的国家广场(National Mall),在这个1963年马丁路德金高呼“I have a dream”的地方,见证美国历史上第一位黑人总统的诞生。

中午12点刚过,奥巴马将手放在林肯1861年宣誓就职时用过的《圣经》上宣誓就任美国第44任总统。

整个演说振奋人心,充满着对美国历史的追溯和对未来生活的希望。

关于奥巴马就职演讲历史题(急

2009年1月20日(美国当地时间)上午12点05分(北京时间21日凌晨1点05分)第 56届(第44任)美国总统奥巴马发表了就职演说。

奥巴马说,美国仍然是年轻的国家,但这个时代受到挑战,我们必须凝聚力量,重新塑造美国。

亲爱的同胞们: 今天我站在这里,为我们将面对的任重道远而慨叹。

感谢你们对我寄托的信任,同时缅怀我们的前人所做出的牺牲。

感谢布什总统为美国做出的贡献,以及他在总统任期交叠过程中的慷慨合作。

至此,共有四十四位美国人曾进行过总统宣誓。

这一誓言曾在国家和平、欣欣向荣时做出过。

然而这一誓词更曾在乌云笼罩和风暴袭来之时被宣读。

美国人民之所以能够走过那些艰难的时刻,不仅仅是因为领袖的能力或远见;更是因为我们,我们人民,保持着对先人理想的忠诚,对我们国家创始文件的追随。

对于我们这一代美国人来说,也是这样,也必须这样。

国家正面临危机,这一点大家已经没有疑问。

美国处在战争之中,面对一个有巨大影响力、充满暴力和仇恨的网络。

我们的经济严重衰退。

这来源于部分人的贪婪和不负责任,更由于作为一个整体,我们未能做出面对一个新时代的艰难决策。

人民失去房屋、工作机会减少、商业活动遭到破坏。

医疗保障过于昂贵,学校教育系统出现太多失败。

而我们对能源的使用,日益让对手强大,与此同时又威胁着我们的星球。

这些,是从数据和统计中可以看到的危机信号。

还有难以度量但同样深远的问题,那就是整个国家信心的缺失。

那萦绕在我们头上的恐惧,认为美国的衰败不可避免,认为我们的下一代人不可能再有太高的期望。

今天我要对你们说,我们面临的挑战是真切的、严重的,而且有很多重。

解决他们不可能很轻松,也不可能在短时间内发生。

但美国人民,请记住这一点:这些挑战会被解决。

今天,我们聚集在一起,因为我们选择了希望而不是恐惧;我们选择了为共同的目标团结在一起,而不是冲突与争执。

今天,我们共同终结那些虚假的承诺、陈腐的教条、以及指摘与怨言。

这些已经困扰了我们的政治体系太长时间。

我们的国家仍旧年轻,但借用圣经中的话,该是抛开那些孩子气的时候了。

现在,需要重新拿出我们的坚韧精神,选择自己的历史。

我们要延续代代相传的宝贵礼物,延续神圣的理想,那就是上帝赐予我们的承诺--人人平等,人人自由,人人都有机会去追求最大程度的幸福。

在重温我们国家伟大的同时,我们必须明白,伟大不是凭空而来的,而是赢得的。

在我们的历程中,从来没有走捷径或是退而求其次。

这一历程不是为懦弱者准备的,不是为那些享乐高于工作、只知追求名利的人准备的。

相反,是那些甘于承担风险的人,实干家,创造者--有些众人皆知,而更多的在辛勤工作中默默无闻--是他们带着我们穿越漫长、崎岖的道路走向繁荣与自由。

为了我们,他们把仅有的财物装进行囊,漂洋过海追求新的生活。

为了我们,他们开拓西部,在条件恶劣的工厂中流血流汗;他们忍受鞭笞,开垦贫瘠的土地。

为了我们,他们战斗和牺牲在协和镇(Concord)、葛底斯堡(Gettysburg)、诺曼底和科萨恩(KheSahn)。

一次又一次,这些男男女女,他们奋斗和牺牲;他们将双手磨破为了给我们带来更好的生活。

在他们眼中,美国超越了我们每个人雄心的总和,超越了个人、财富和派系的差别。

今天,我们仍在这样的历程上。

我们仍旧是地球上最繁荣、最强大的国家。

美国工人们的效率并不比危机开始之前低。

我们的头脑具有同样的创造力。

我们的产品与服务和上周、上月、或者去年一样有需求。

我们的能力从未被削弱。

但墨守陈规、维护狭隘的利益、面对艰难的决策畏首畏尾的日子将一去不复返了。

从今天开始,我们必须重新找回我们自己,掸去身上的尘土,开始重塑美国的重任。

环顾四周,有无数工作等着我们。

经济状况期待着我们大胆和快速的行动。

我们会付诸行动--不仅仅是创造就业机会,同时还要为未来的增长打下新的基础。

我们将建设公路、桥梁和电网,以及将我们紧密联系起来、提供商业信息的数字高速公路。

我们会重新树立科学应有的地位,并利用技术手段提高医疗保障的质量,同时降低其费用。

我们将利用太阳、风与土壤,来驱动我们的汽车和工厂。

我们将改革我们的学校和大学,以满足新时代的需要。

这些都有可能实现,更会去实现。

现在,有人还在怀疑我们的信心——他们认为我们的国家无法承担这样的重大计划。

他们太健忘了,他们忘记了这个国家曾经取得的成就,他们忘记了当拥有了理想、共同的目标和必要的勇气,这些自由的人民曾经取得的辉煌成就。

这些愤世嫉俗的人无法理解这个国家所发生的转变——那些陈腐的政治已经缠绕了我们太久太长。

我们现在面临的问题不是政府太大还是太小,而是政府所扮演的角色——应该帮助家庭获得体面的收入,购买他们的所需,有尊严地退休。

当这些答案都是肯定的时,我们才能继续前进。

如果答案是否定的,一切都将不复存在。

我们这些管理公共财产的人应该负起责任——把钱花在刀刃上、改掉恶习、光明正大地行事——因为只有这样我们才能重塑人民和政府之间的信任。

市场力量的好坏不是我们的问题。

市场在创造财富和推进自由进程方面是无可代替的,但是这场危机也提醒了我们没有审慎的监管,市场的力量将如野马一样脱缰——一个仅有财富的国家不可能持续繁荣。

我们在经济上所取得的成功不仅体现在我们的经济总量上,也体现在我们的繁荣程度上,体现在我们为每个渴望成功的心灵所提供的机会上—这并非出自恻隐之心,而是我们实现共同利益的必经之路。

我们拒绝在安全和理想之间妥协。

我们的建国先辈们,面对我们无法想象的凶险,却依然用几代人的鲜血维护了神圣的法律和人权。

那些理想依然在照亮着这个世界,我们不会因一时的困难而放弃这些理想。

我要对那些正在看着我们的国家和人民说,无论你身处繁华的都市还是像养育了我父亲那样的小村庄:对于那些追求和平与尊严的男人、女人和孩子,美国将永远是你们的朋友,我们将继续和你们一起前进。

我们是这种传统的捍卫者。

我们继续追寻这些信念的指引,我们将直面这些挑战并更加努力—更多的沟通与合作。

我们会负责地将伊拉克还给当地的人民,并在阿富汗保卫来之不易的和平。

我们将与老朋友和原来的敌人一道,共同消除核威胁,解决全球变暖的根源。

我们不会为自己的做法道歉,更不会动摇捍卫和平的决心,对于那些崇尚恐怖、滥杀无辜的人,我们的精神是强大而不可战胜的。

你拖不垮我们,我们将会打败你。

我们多种族混居是一种优势。

我们是一个由基督徒、穆斯林、犹太教徒、印度教徒和无神论者共同组成的国家。

我们吸收了各种文化的精髓,从世界的每个角落学习。

因为我们经历过内战和种族隔离的痛苦洗礼,并在黑暗中更加坚强和团结,我们无法保证,但是我们相信憎恨终将消弭,分隔终将散去。

随着世界越来越紧密地联系在一起,我们共同的人性将显露出来,美国必须承担引领新时代和平的重任。

对于穆斯林世界,我们将基于共同的利益和信仰,寻找更好的合作之路。

对于那些在世界各个地方挑起冲突或一味批评西方不良影响的领导者:你的人民评判你的依据是你建立了什么,而不是破坏了什么。

对于那些依靠腐败和欺骗并压制异议而追求权利的人们:你们站在了人类历史的对立面。

如果你们能张开紧握的拳头,我们也将伸出友谊之手。

对于那些贫穷的人们,我们保证和你们一起建设繁茂的农场和干净的水源,滋养那些饥寒交迫的身体和心灵。

对于那些与我们一样相对富裕的国家,我们不能再对外界的苦难漠不关心,更不能继续大肆索取世界的资源。

世界必须改变,我们都必须改变。

当我们审视前方的道路时,我们会感激那些跨越千山万水来到这里的人们。

今天,他们有话对我们说,也是安息在阿林顿国家公墓里的先烈们时刻提醒我们的。

我们尊敬他们不仅因为是他们捍卫了我们的自由,更因为他们正是奉献精神的化身;他们致力于寻找远高于自身的生命真谛。

而此时,在这个特殊的时代,我们更需让这种精神长存。

因为归根结底,政府所能做的,也是必须做到的,是体现每个美国人的信念和决心,这也是这个国家赖以生存的精神力量。

这种力量是洪灾泛滥时,陌生人之间的温暖善举;是经济困难时期,人们自损利益保全朋友工作的无私忘我。

这是消防员们毅然冲入浓烟火海的勇气,也是父母培养孩子的无私之心,这些都决定了我们的命运。

或许,我们今日遇到挑战前所未有,所有的情况完全陌生。

但是,我们赖以走向成功的价值观从未改变——诚实、勤勉、勇敢、公正、宽容、好学、忠贞和爱国。

我们的历史亦由这些真理推进,亘古不变。

如今,我们面对的是一个全新的责任时代——人人都需重视,对我们自己,我们的国家乃至整个世界,都有一份责任。

我们会欣然接受这份责任,人生也正因此而充实。

这是公民的价值和承诺。

这是我们信心的源泉——上帝赐予我们知识以应对无常的命运。

这是我们所崇尚的自由与信念的真谛——这就是为什么今天,不同肤色,不同信仰的男女老少在此汇聚一堂;这就是为什么六十年前,一位父亲走入餐厅甚至无人理睬,而今天他的儿子可以站在这里,在你们面前许下最庄严的誓言。

所以让我们记住这一天,记住自己,记住为此的付出。

在我们的国家诞生之初,先辈们在最寒冷的日子里,围聚在结冰的河边靠微弱的篝火取暖。

离乡背井,后有敌军,鲜血染红了白雪。

就在革命的道路如此模糊,意志也开始踌躇之时,我们的国父有这样几句话: “告诉未来的世界……当一切陷入寒冬,万物俱灭,只有希望和勇气可以长存……这座城市和这个国家,在共同的危机下团结起来,共同面对前方的艰难。

” 美国,面对我们共同的危机,在这艰难的寒冬,让我们牢记那些永恒的字句。

怀着希望和美德,让我们再一次勇敢地面对冰冷的现实,迎接任何可能的风浪。

让我们的子孙传唱,当我们面对挑战时,我们没有怯懦、没有退缩,更没有踟蹰不前。

我们在上帝的关爱下眺望远方,我们在自由的道路上继续前进,我们的精神将永远闪耀着光芒。

奥巴马演讲稿

Hello, Chicago.If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.美国是一个一切皆有可能的地方,如果还有人对这一点心存怀疑,如果还有人怀疑美国奠基者的梦想在我们时代是否还有活力,还有人怀疑我们民主制度的力量,那么,你们今晚正是对那些疑问作出了回答。

It’s the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen, by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different, that their voices could be that difference.在学校和教堂周围所出现的前所未有的长队是答案,这个国家从未见过这么多的人前来投票,人们排三个、四个小时的队来进行有生以来的第一次投票,因为他们相信这一次将会不同,他们发出的声音可能就是那个差别。

It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled. Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of individuals or a collection of red states and blue states.这是一个年轻人和年老人、富人和穷人、民主党人和共和党人、黑人、白人、西班牙裔人、亚裔、印第安人、同性恋和异性恋、残障人士和健全人士所作出的回答。

美国人向世界发出一个信息:我们从不只是一些个人的累加或者“红色州”和“蓝色州”的累加。

We are, and always will be, the United States of America.我们是,我们永远是美利坚合众国。

It’s the answer that led those who’ve been told for so long by so many to be cynical and fearful and doubtful about what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.这是一个引导人们的答案,太多的人在很长的时间内给他们说这个答案,以至于他们对此持愤世疾俗的态度,对我们是否可以再一次把握历史的希望感到担心和怀疑。

It’s been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this date in this election at this defining moment change has come to America.已经过去了很长时间,但是今晚,由于我们今天在这场选举所采取的行动,在这个决定性的时候,变革来到了美国。

A little bit earlier this evening, I received an extraordinarily gracious call from Sen. McCain.今晚早些时候,我接到来自参议员麦凯恩的一个特别有风度的电话。

Sen. McCain fought long and hard in this campaign. And he’s fought even longer and harder for the country that he loves. He has endured sacrifices for America that most of us cannot begin to imagine. We are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader.麦凯恩在这场选战中进行了长期和艰苦的努力,他为这个他所爱的国家战斗了更长的时间,作出了更艰苦的努力。

他为美国承受了我们中的大多数人无法想像的牺牲。

由于这位勇敢和无私领导人的服务,我们的生活变得更好。

I congratulate him; I congratulate Gov. Palin for all that they’ve achieved. And I look forward to working with them to renew this nation’s promise in the months ahead.我向他表示祝贺,我向佩林州长表示祝贺,向他们所取得的成果表示祝贺,我盼望与他们共事以继续这个国家在未来岁月的承诺。

I want to thank my partner in this journey, a man who campaigned from his heart, and spoke for the men and women he grew up with on the streets of Scranton and rode with on the train home to Delaware, the vice president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.我想感谢我在竞选旅程的伙伴,一位用心竞选的男士,一位为和他一起在斯克兰顿街头一同长大的男人和女子代言、经常坐火车回特拉华州的男士,美国当选副总统拜登。

And I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last 16 years the rock of our family, the love of my life, the nation’s next first lady Michelle Obama.如果没有我过去16年最好的朋友、我们家庭的中坚、我生命中的挚爱,我今天晚上不可能站在这里,美国下一位第一夫人米歇尔-奥巴马。

Sasha and Malia I love you both more than you can imagine. And you have earned the new puppy that’s coming with us to the new White House.萨沙和马莉娅,我爱你们,我对你们的爱超出了你们的想象。

你们已赢得了新的宠物狗,它将和我们一起前往新的白宫。

And while she’s no longer with us, I know my grandmother’s watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight. I know that my debt to them is beyond measure.尽管她没能和我们在一起,但我知道,我的祖母和养大我的家人在看着我,我今晚很想念他们,我知道我欠他们的东西是无法计量的。

我的妹妹马娅、我的姐姐奥玛,我其他的兄弟和姐妹,非常感谢你们对我的支持,我感谢他们。

To my sister Maya, my sister Alma, all my other brothers and sisters, thank you so much for all the support that you’ve given me. I am grateful to them.我的妹妹马娅、我的姐姐奥玛,我其他的兄弟和姐妹,非常感谢你们对我的支持,我感谢他们。

美国总统林肯说的一句话 完整版本是什么

奥巴马演讲中引用的~~

As Lincoln said to a nation far more divided than ours, We are not enemies, but friends...though passion may have strained it must not break our bonds of affection. 林肯在向远比我们眼下分歧更大的国家发表讲话时说,我们不是敌人,而是朋友............. ================================================= 这是林肯总统在1861年的第一次就职演说,反对国家分裂,“我们不是敌人,而是朋友”,奥巴马引用的这句出现在演说最后结束部分。

林肯总统1861年3月4日的就职演说 合众国的公民们: 遵从和政府本身一样古老的惯例,我在你们面前做一次简明扼要的演讲,并当场立下誓言,这是所规定的在总统“行使职责之前”所要履行的仪式。

我觉得没有必要探讨行政公务,目前没有特别忧虑或高兴的事情。

南部诸州的人民看起来存在着疑虑:共和党执政意味着他们的财产、和平和人身安全将会出现危险。

这种疑虑绝无明智的理由。

真的,事实是最有力的证据,供大家去检视。

你们可以从他几乎所有的演讲中发现这一点——就是现在在你们面前演讲的这个人。

我只能从这些演讲中挑选一篇,当时我发表宣言——我并不企图,直接地或间接地去干涉蓄奴州的惯例。

我相信我没有这样做的合法权力,我也不倾向这样去做。

提名和选举我的这些人完全清楚,我已做了这个声明和许多类似声明,而且决不改变;不仅如此,在政纲宣言中,我接纳选举人的一项清晰明确的决议,这对他们、对我都是一个法律,我现在宣读一遍: 决议:保持各州的权利不被亵渎,特别是各州依靠自己的独立判断去命令和管理自身机构的权利,这种权力平衡是必要的,能保证我们的政体尽善尽美和持久长远;我们公开抨击,用非法武力去侵犯各州或准州的土地的行为,不论用何种托词,都是最大的恶行。

我现在重申这些主张,只是向公众表明一个最鲜明的事实,没有哪个地区的财产、和平和安全会受到即将上任的政府的蓄意侵犯。

我还要加上一句,不论出于何种理由,只要各州的要求合法,政府都会高兴地给予与宪法和法律一致的保护——对各州不会厚此薄彼。

对于遣返逃避服兵役和服劳役者这个问题有很多分歧。

现在我宣布一个条款,这个条款和任何其他条款一样都是标明在宪法里: 任何据一州之法律在该州中服役或服劳役之人逃往另一州,不能根据另一州任何法律或条例判决,而解除其服役或服劳役,而应依照有权要求该项服役或服劳役之当事一方的要求,把该人遣送。

毫无疑问,这一条款的订立者是要求归还我们通常所说的逃亡奴隶,法律制订者的目的就是法律。

所有国会议员都宣誓拥护整个宪法——这个条款和其他条款一样遵守。

因此对于适合这一条款情况的奴隶“应该遣送”,他们的誓言是相同的。

现在,如果他们平心静气地作一番努力的话,为何不能用差不多相同的看法,去通过一项法律,使得这一致的宣誓长久地保有

这一条款是由国家还是由州政府来实施,有着不同的看法,但实际上这并非什么很重要的问题。

如果这个奴隶要遣返,那么不管哪个官方来实施,对他或其他人来说,都是没有影响的。

对于怎样去履行一个誓言,任何人在任何情况下怎会只因一个非实质性的争论而不去,谁愿意这样呢

再说:在这个问题上,处于文明和人道的法律体系中,就不能把捍卫自由的任何法律让人人知晓,以便一个自由人不会在任何情况下被当作一个奴隶遣送

而同时,宪法的这一条款的法律执行不也是得到了贯彻吗

宪法不是保证“每一个州的公民拥有其他州公民一样的和豁免权”吗

今天我庄严宣誓,既无,也不用苛求的尺度去分析宪法或法律。

我现在不能做这样的选择:国会的某些特别法案要去彻底实施。

但我做一个建议,不论是正式和私下场合上,配合和服从还未撤消的所有法令会更为安全,不要指望违背宪法而触 犯其中一项会不受惩处。

在我们的国家宪法约束之下,从第一位总统任职开始到现在已有72年了。

其间有15位性格各异和非常卓越的公民先后执掌了政府的行政部门。

他们克服了许多艰难险阻管理着政府部门,一般而言都赢得了伟大的成就。

继承这些前人的经验和智慧,在这伟大而特殊的困境中,我担当起同样的工作,去度过宪法规定的四年短暂任期。

联邦的分裂,以前只是一种威吓,如今却是难以避免的侵袭了。

我相信在普通法和宪法中各州构成的联邦是永恒存在的。

在所有国家政府的基本法中如果没有明确指出这种永恒性,那也暗含着这一点。

可以断定,没有一个合法政府为它的基本法规定了终结的期限。

不断地执行我们国家宪法明文规定的条款,联邦将会永远存续,这不可能终结,除非是超越宪法本身的某些行为。

再说:如果合众国不是一个正规政府,而只是各州的一个契约性质的联盟,作为一纸契约,难道就能够不经过所有缔约者而无声无息地失效了吗

缔约的一方可以违反它——或者说,撕毁它——但不是需要所有的缔约者才能合法地废止它吗

从这些普遍法则来推理,我们发现从法律上去考察这种永恒性的主张,已被联邦自身的历史永久地确立。

联邦比宪法古老得多。

事实上,它是在1774年联合订约而成立的。

1776年的使其完善并延续下来。

1778年条款使其进一步成熟,当时13个州由此明确宣誓和保证联邦会永恒存在。

最后在1787年,宣布制定和认可宪法的一个目的是“组成一个更完美的联邦。

” 但如果只由一州或一部分州破坏联邦而合法化,那么联邦比没有宪法之前更不完美,它已丧失了永恒性这一要素。

从这些观点推断,没有哪个州能根据自身意图就可以合法地脱离联邦;所作出的决议和法令在法律上是徒劳的,一州或数州反抗美国执政当局的暴力行动,可依其实际情形,认定为反叛或革命。

从宪法和法律的观点出发,我认为联邦是不可分裂的,我将竭尽全能、精心细致地依据宪法本身明确授予我的权力,使联邦的法律忠实地在各州得到实施。

做到这一点,我认为只是应尽的一个基本职责,我将依实际情况来履行它,除非我的合法主人——美国人民限制必要的手段或采取一些郑重的方式指示我相反的做法。

我相信这不会视作一种危害,只是把它视作联邦明确表示的意图,即它要用宪法来维护和延续自身。

做到这一点并不需要流血或暴力,不会有上述情况发生,除非国家执政者被迫去这样做。

给予我的权力将是执掌、使用和保有属于政府的财富和名分,征收普通税和关税;为了这些目标所必需的措施之外的手段,将不会涉及,不会使用暴力去反对或离间任何地区的人民。

要是国内任何地方对联邦的敌对势力强大和普遍,因而可以阻挡称职的公民去就任联邦职务,这个地方的人民就不会强迫那位讨厌的异类人去任职。

尽管政府有充分合法的权力去执行这些职责,但这种实施会引起极大的愤怒,是缺乏洞察力的,因之我认为这段时间暂缓落实这些职责。

邮件,除非是受到拒斥,仍将在联邦的各处予以投递,竭尽所能采取一切办法,将会使各地人民得到完全安全的感觉,这最有助于从容地思考和反省。

这里讲述的措施将会予以实施,除非目前的事态和过去的经验表明需要适当的调整和改变,在任何情况和危机状态中,我将极其清醒地履行职责,以应对目前的实际形势,心中怀抱和平解决国家动乱的信念和希望,恢复友爱和融洽的和谐秩序。

在某些地方有些人寻找各种理由去破坏联邦,为得到任何借口而欢欣鼓舞,这是否属实,我无意肯定也无意否定。

但如果真是如此,对他们我不需要去说什么,然而对那些真心爱恋联邦的人,我不应该说说话吗

在进入事关我们国家组织和它的利益、记忆和希望这样重大的问题之前,详细阐释我们为何要介入这个问题,不是很明智吗

当你们要逃避的苦难完全可能并不真正存在,你们愿意如此绝望地走出冒险的一步吗

比起你们要从一切真实的灾难旁逃避而言,这种逃避使你们遭遇更为巨大得多的灾难,你们愿意冒险寄希望于这样可怕的一个错误之上吗

如果宪法的所有权利都得到了保障,那么人们都会承认处于联邦之中是满意的。

那么现在宪法明文规定的权利是否已被否定

是这样吗

我想不会。

让人快慰的是,人们的想法是如此的一致,没有哪一方敢如此大胆行事。

想想吧,如果你能,那么就举出一个宪法明文规定数量的威力去剥夺少数派宪法上明文规定的权利,那么从道德上看,革命是有理的;如果这项权利举足轻重,那么就更是如此了。

但我们这里并非这样的情形。

少数派和个人的所有重要权利在宪法中通过保证和拒绝、担保和禁令这样的方式得到明确的保证,有关宪法的争议从未涉及到这一方面。

但从没有哪一部根本大法能制定出一项特别条款去解决实际行政工作出现的各种问题。

既没有人有如此先见之明,也没有任何精确适度的文件,能圈定所有可能出现的问题。

逃奴是由国家还是州政府去遣送

宪法没有明确说明,国会是否可以在准州禁止奴隶制

宪法没有明确说明。

国会是否必须在准州内维护奴隶制

宪法没有明文规定。

从这类问题导致了我们全部的宪法争论,我们由此分成了多数派和少数派。

如果少数派不愿服从,那么多数派必须让他们服从,否则政府就此毁灭。

不存在其他的可取之道,为了延续下去政府要从属一方或另一方。

如果少数派宁愿脱离而不愿服从,他们就制造了一个榜样,这榜样反过来将分裂和毁灭他们,因为当他们中的多数派不愿服从少数派的支配的话,那么少数派将从中脱离出去。

比如说,一个新联盟的任何一个部分一年或两年以后为什么就不可以随心所欲地再次脱离呢

目前联邦中的某些州宣称脱离联邦不也是这样

那些坚持分裂意见的人现在正受到这种性质的教育。

这些组成新联盟的各州存在纯粹同一的利益吗

会做得,能防止再一次脱离吗

很明显脱离联邦的核心观念是无政府主义。

多数派在宪法的检验和约束下执掌政权,总是能随着大众那种深思的意见和深厚的情感而顺应变化,那么这样的多数派就是自由人民唯一的真正领袖,谁拒绝它就会陷入或专制之中。

全体一致是不可能的。

少数人的统治,以之道而言,是完全不可取的;因此,拒绝多数人的原则,所剩下的只会是某些形式的和专制。

我并没有忘记一些人提出的设想——把宪法问题交给来裁断,我也不否认这类裁断在任何案例中对诉讼当事人及诉讼对象都有约束力,而他们也有权在所有同类案件中受到政府所有其他部门非常高的敬意和重视。

尽管在司法中这类裁断可能出现错误,仍会产生不良后果,但局限在特定的案例中,有机会可以去改变,决不会成为其他案例的一个榜样,比起其他实践所产生的不良后果,它更容易忍受。

与此同时,公正的公民必须坦承,如果政府事关全体国民的方针无法逆转地由来裁断,那么一当这种用于个人诉讼当事人中间的一般诉讼介入的话,人民就会失去了他们自身的主宰地位,到了这个地步,实际上已顺从地把人民的政府交到显赫的大法官手上。

从这个观点看不存在对法官或法庭的指责。

对于严格地按程序交到他们手中的案件作出裁断那是他们无法推诿的职责,要是有人寻求把法官的裁断转变为政治意图,这可不是他们的错误。

我们国家一部分区域的人相信蓄奴制是对的,应该继续下去,而另一部分区域的人相信它是错的,不应该继续下去。

这是唯一本质上的分歧。

宪法中有关逃奴的条款和禁止外国奴隶贸易的法律都得到良好的执行,也许,就像人民的道义观念不完全同意法律本身,但法律仍得到执行一样。

对于两项事实所引起的无趣的法律义务,人民中的绝大多数是遵从的,很少数的一部分均予以违反。

对于此,我认为,不可能完全予以消除,在一部分地区分裂出去之后,会比以前更糟。

外国奴隶的流入,现在没有完全消失,但之后会在一部分地区毫不限制地复苏过来;而逃亡奴隶,现在只是部分的遣返,但在另一地区,将来是完全不遣返。

就地缘而言,我们不可能分离。

我们不能彼此各自迁移开去,也不能建立起不可逾越的高墙隔开彼此。

丈夫和妻子可以离婚,不再相见,互不来往,我们国家的不同部分却不能这样做。

他们不只是要面对面,而且要交往,不管和睦的还是仇视的,彼此必须不停地交往。

那么交往在分裂后会比分裂前更为方便或更为适当吗

外国人之间订立协议会比朋友间制定法律更容易吗

陌生人之间的协议会比朋友间的法律更为忠实地被执行吗

假设你要进行战争,你不能一直打下去,当双方损失巨大、毫无所获时,你会停止战斗,作为交往的方式,这个完全同一的老问题再次摆在你的面前。

这个国家,和它的社会事业机构属于居住其间的人民。

任何时候他们对现政府产生了厌恶,他们可以根据改进政府的宪法权利来行动,或者用革命的权利进行分割或者摧毁现政府。

我不可能不知道这些事:许多可敬的和爱国的公民渴望修改国家宪法。

尽管我没有提出修改的建议,但我坦承人民在整个事情上拥有合法的权利,去运用宪法自身规定的任一模式;在目前的形势下,我不会阻碍而会帮助人民运用公正的机会正实行这种权利。

我决心加上一条意见,对我而言,更喜欢人民代表大会的模式,它允许人民自己去提出修正案,它可以代替那种由别人提出的倡议,而人民仅仅被允许赞成或反对的模式,这些倡议并非专门为了人民的意图而特别选定的,而且不可能像那些人所希望的那样,仅仅赞成或否决那样简单明了。

我知道一项宪法修改的提议——这项修正案,毕竟,我没有看到——国会已经通过了,其目的是联邦决不能介入各州内部机构,包括人员服役的事宜。

为了避开对我已说的发生误会,我脱离我的意图,不再谈及特定的修正案,尽管这样,我还是要说一句,现在把这一条款作为宪法意味的法律,明文确定,不得更改,我并不拒绝这样做。

最高执政官所拥有的一切权力都来自于人民,他们从未指定他去确立分裂各州的条款。

如果他们要做抉择,他们能够自己去这样做,但与执政官没有什么干系。

他的职责是管理他执掌的政府,把政府毫无损害地传递到他的继任者。

为何不对人民最终的裁断抱着坚毅的信任

在这世界里就没有更好或同等的希望了

在我们当前的分歧中,双方就不相信自己是正确的

如果统率万国的万能之主,带着他的永恒真理和正义,站在你们北方这边,或站在你们南方那边,经过美国人民这位伟大法官的裁决,真理和正义将真正地大白于天下。

作为我们赖以生存的政府机构,人民为了避免伤害明智地只给予他们的公务员一点点权力,同样高明的是规定只隔很短的时间就把那点权力收回到他们自己手中。

当人民保有正直的品性和警醒的心灵,即便行政机构极度腐败或愚蠢都不能在四年的短暂舞台上,对政府造成非常严重的损害。

我的国人们,所有人一起冷静地、好好地思考这整个问题。

没有价值的事情会随着时间而消失。

如果你们中任何一个人慌慌忙忙对一个目标迈出了热情冲动的一步,这一步你绝对没有经过深思熟虑,这个目标随着时间流逝而无法抵达,不好的目标只能受到挫败。

你们当中不满的人仍拥有古老的宪法,它未受到损害,再者还可以微妙地表明,你们有自己在宪法之下的法律;而新政府如果有心,也没有直接权力去改变其中任何一项。

如果表明不满的人在这场争论中占据了正确的一边,也没有单独的好理由去贸然行事。

理解力、爱国心、基督教精神,还有对上帝的坚定信仰,他从未放弃这块偏爱的土地——这一切仍可以用最好的方式充分调解我们目前的全部困难。

在你们的手里,我的同胞,不是在我的手里,握有内战的抉择权。

政府不会袭扰你们。

你们不会受到攻击,除非你们自己挑衅。

你们没有向天发誓去毁坏政府,而我要做一个最严肃的承诺,要去“维持、保卫和支撑它。

” 我不愿意就此结束。

我们不是敌人,而是朋友;我们必须不成为敌人。

尽管激情会让我们的情感关系扭曲,但没必要绷断。

回忆的神秘之弦,从每一片战场和爱国者之墓伸展开琴弦,在这宽广的国土上与每一颗搏动的心房、温暖的壁炉联结起来,当我们本性中的更为美好的天使——只要他们真的乐意——去再次触抚琴弦,我们仍将陶醉于联邦大合唱之中。

I am loath to close. We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained it must not break our bonds of affection.
