伯恩斯在华盛顿大学圣路易斯分校毕业典礼上的英语演讲稿伯恩斯在华盛顿大学圣路易斯分校毕业典礼上的英语演讲稿Chancellor Wrighton, members of the Board of Trustees and the Administration, distinguished faculty, Class of 1965, hard-working staff, my fellow honorees, proud and relieved parents, calm and serene grandparents, distracted but secretly pleased siblings, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, graduating students, good morning. I am deeply honored that you have asked me here to say a few words at this momentous occasion, that you might find what I have to say worthy of your attention on so important a day at this remarkable institution.It had been my intention this morning to parcel out some good advice at the end of theseremarks – the "goodness" of that being of course subjective in the extreme – but then Irealized that this is the land of Mark Twain, and I came to the conclusion that anycommentary today ought to be framed in the sublime shadow of this quote of his: "It's notthat the world is full of fools, it's just that lightening isn't distributed right." … More on Mr.Twain later.I am in the business of history. It is my job to try to discern some patterns and themes fromthe past to help us interpret our dizzyingly confusing and sometimes dismaying present.Without a knowledge of that past, how can we possibly know where we are and, mostimportant, where we are going? Over the years I've come to understand an important fact, Ithink: that we are not condemned to repeat, as the cliché goes and we are fond of quoting,what we don't remember. That's a clever, even poetic phrase, but not even close to the truth.Nor are there cycles of history, as the academic community periodically promotes. TheBible,Ecclesiastes to be specific, got it right, I think: "What has been will be again. What has beendone will be done again. There is nothing new under the sun."What that means is that human nature never changes. Or almost never changes. We havecontinually superimposed our complex and contradictory nature over the random course ofhuman events. All of our inherent strengths and weaknesses, our greed and generosity, ourpuritanism and our prurience parade before our eyes, generation after generation aftergeneration. This often gives us the impression that history does repeat itself. It doesn't. Itjust rhymes, Mark Twain is supposed to have said…but he didn't (more on him later).Over the many years of practicing, I have come to the realization that history is not a fixedthing, a collection of precise dates, facts and events (even cogent commencement quotes)that add up to a quantifiable, certain, confidently known, truth. It is a mysterious andmalleable thing. And each generation rediscovers and re-examines that part of its past thatgives its present, and most important, its future new meaning, new possibilities and new power.Listen. For most of the forty years I've been making historical documentaries, I have beenhaunted and inspired by a handful of sentences from an extraordinary speech I came acrossearly in my professional life by a neighbor of yours just up the road in Springfield, Illinois. InJanuary of 1838, shortly before his 29th birthday, a tall, thin lawyer, prone to bouts ofdebilitating depression, addressed the Young Men's Lyceum. The topic that day was nationalsecurity. "At what point shall we expect the approach of danger?" he asked his audience. "…Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the Earth and crush usat a blow?"Then he answered his own question: "Never. All the armi es of Europe, Asia, and Africa … couldnot by force take a drink from the Ohio [River] or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of athousand years … If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As anation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide." It is a stunning,remarkable statement.That young man was, of course, Abraham Lincoln, and he would go on to preside over theclosest this country has ever come to near national suicide, our Civil War –fought over themeaning of freedom in America. And yet embedded in his extraordinary, disturbing andprescient words is a fundamental optimism that implicitly acknowledges the geographicalforce-field two mighty oceans and two relatively benign neighbors north and south haveprovided for us since the British burned the White House in the War of 1812.We have counted on Abraham Lincoln for more than a century and a half to get it right whenthe undertow in the tide of those human events has threatened to overwhelm and capsize us.We always come back to him for the kind of sustaining vision of why we Americans still agree tocohere, why unlike any other country on earth, we are still stitched together by words and, mostimportant, their dangerous progeny, ideas. We return to him for a sense of unity, conscienceand national purpose. T o escape what the late historian Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., said is ourproblem today: "too much pluribus, not enough unum."。

It is an immense honor and privilege to stand before you today as a graduate of Harvard University. The years I have spent here have been some of the most challenging and rewarding of my life. As I prepare to leave this magnificent institution, I want to share with you some thoughts that have shaped my journey and will continue to guide me inthe future.First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to the faculty, staff, and students of Harvard for the knowledge, wisdom, and experiences they have imparted upon me. This university has not only equipped me with the tools necessary to succeed academically, but it has also instilled in me the values that will serve as the foundation for my future endeavors.Harvard has taught me the importance of critical thinking. In every class, every discussion, and every debate, we were encouraged toquestion assumptions, challenge the status quo, and seek the truth. This mindset has become a part of my DNA, and I am confident that it will serve me well in the years to come.Harvard has also taught me the value of perseverance. The academic rigor and the competitive nature of this university have pushed me to mylimits and beyond. There were moments when I felt overwhelmed and wanted to give up, but I learned that true success comes from pushing through those moments and embracing the challenge.One of the most valuable lessons I have learned at Harvard is the importance of community. This university has brought together peoplefrom all walks of life, cultures, and backgrounds. Through this diversity, we have learned to understand, respect, and appreciate one another. This experience has taught me that we are all connected, andthat our actions have the power to impact the lives of others.As I move forward, I want to take with me the lessons I have learned at Harvard and apply them to my life. I will strive to be a lifelong learner, always seeking to expand my knowledge and understanding of the world around me. I will embrace the challenges that come my way, knowing that they are opportunities for growth and self-improvement.I will also continue to value community and diversity. As I enter the workforce and begin to make my mark on the world, I will work to create an inclusive environment that allows everyone to thrive. I will strive to understand and appreciate the perspectives of others, and I will use my platform to advocate for those who are marginalized and underrepresented.Finally, I want to remind all of us that success is not measured by the accolades we receive or the achievements we attain. True success comes from the impact we have on the lives of others. As we leave Harvard and embark on our respective journeys, let us remember that our greatest legacy will be the positive change we create in the world.In conclusion, I want to thank Harvard for the incredible opportunities and experiences it has provided me. I am forever grateful for the knowledge, wisdom, and friendships I have gained here. As I leave this university, I am confident that I am ready to take on the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.Thank you, Harvard. You have prepared me for life.。

一位美国华盛顿大学学生的毕业演讲稿Student Speech Delivered at the Washington University Engineering Graduate Student Recognition Ceremony15 May 1997Lorrie Faith CranorFaculty, family, friends, and fellow graduates, good evening.I am honored to address you tonight. On behalf of the graduating masters and doctoral students of Washington University's School of Engineering and Applied Science, I would like to thank all the parents, spouses, families, and friends who encouraged and supported us as we worked towards our graduate degrees. I would especially like to thank my own family, eight members of which are in the audience today. I would also like to thank all of the department secretaries and other engineering school staff members who always seemed to be there when confused graduate students needed help. And finally I would like to thank the Washington University faculty members who served as our instructors, mentors, and friends.As I think back on the seven-and-a-half years I spent at Washington University, my mind is filled with memories, happy, sad, frustrating, and even humorous.Tonight I would like to share with you some of the memories that I take with me as I leave Washington University.I take with me the memory of my office on the fourth floor of Lopata Hall - the room at the end of the hallway that was too hot in summer, too cold in winter, and always too far away fromthe women's restroom. The window was my office's best feature. Were it not for the physics building across the way, it would have afforded me a clear view of the arch. But instead I got a view of the roof of the physics building. I also had a view of one corner of the roof of Urbauer Hall, which seemed to be a favorite perch for various species of birds who alternately won perching rights for several weeks at a time. And I had a nice view of the physics courtyard, noteworthy as a good place for watching people run their dogs. It's amazing how fascinating these views became the longer I worked on mmy dissertation. But my favorite view was of a nearby oak tree. From my fourth-floor vantage point I had a rather intimate view of the tree and the various birds and squirrels that inhabit it. Occasionally a bird would land on my window sill, which usually had the effect of startling both of us.I take with me the memory of two young professors who passed away while I was a graduate student. Anne Johnstone, the only female professor from whom I took a course in the engineering school, and Bob Durr, a political science professor and a member of my dissertation committee, both lost brave battles with cancer. I remember them fondly.I take with me the memory of failing the first exam in one of the first engineering courses I took as an undergraduate. I remember thinking the course was just too hard for me and that I would never be able to pass it. So I went to talk to the professor, ready to drop the ClAsS. And he told me not to giveup, he told me I could succeed in his ClAsS. For reasons that seemed completely ludicrous at the time, he said he had faith in me. And after that my grades in the ClAsS slowly improved, and I ended the semester with an A on the final exam. I remember how motivational it was to know that someone believed in me.I take with me memories of the midwestern friendliness that so surprised me when I arrived in St. Louis 8 years ago. Since moving to New Jersey, I am sad to say, nobody has asked me where I went to high school.I take with me the memory of the short-lived computer science graduate student social committee lunches. The idea was that groups of CS grad students were supposed to take turns cooking a monthly lunch. But after one grad student prepared a pot of chicken that poisoned almost the entire CS grad student population and one unlucky faculty member in one fell swoop, there wasn't much enthusiasm for having more lunches.I take with me the memory of a more successful graduate student effort, the establishment of the Association of Graduate Engineering Students, known as AGES. Started by a handful of engineering graduate students because we needed a way to elect representatives to a campus-wide graduate student government, AGES soon grew into an organization that now sponsors a wide variety of activities and has been instrumental in addressing a number of engineering graduate student concerns.I take with me the memory of an Engineering and Policy department that once had flourishing programs for full-time undergraduate, masters, and doctoral students.I take with me memories of the 1992 U.S. Presidential debate. Eager to get involved in all the excitement I volunteered to help wherever needed. I remember spending several days in the makeshift debate HQ giving out-of-town reporters directions to the athletic complex. I remember being thrilled to get assigned the job of collecting film from the photographers in the debate hall during the debate. And I remember the disappointment of drawing the shortest straw among the student volunteers and being the one who had to take the film out of the debate hall and down to the dark room five minutes into the debate - with no chance to re-enter the debate hall after I left.I take with me memories of university holidays which never seemed to apply to graduate students. I remember spending many a fall break and President's Day holiday with my fellow grad students in all day meetings brought to us by the computer science department.I take with me memories of exams that seemed designed more to test endurance and perseverance than mastery of the subject matter. I managed to escape taking any ClAsSes that featured infamous 24-hour-take-home exams, but remember the suffering of my less fortunate colleagues. And what doctoral student could forget the pain and suffering one must endure to survive the qualifying exams?I take with me the memory of the seven-minute rule, which always seemed to be an acceptable excuse for being ten minutes late for anything on campus, but which doesn't seem to apply anywhere else I go.I take with me the memory of Friday afternoon ACM happy hours, known not for kegs of beer, but rather bowls of rainbow sherbet punch. Over the several years that I attended these happy hours they enjoyed varying degrees of popularity, often proportional to the quality and quantity of the accompanying refreshments - but there was always the rainbow sherbert punch. I take with me memories of purple parking permits, the West Campus shuttle, checking my pendaflex, over-due library books, trying to print from cec, lunches on Delmar, friends who slept in their offices, miniature golf in Lopata Hall, The Greenway Talk, division III basketball, and trying to convince Dean Russel that yet another engineering school rule should be changed.Finally, I would like to conclude, not with a memory, but with some advice. What would a graduation speech be without a little advice, right? Anyway, this advice comes in the form of a verse delivered to the 1977 graduating ClAsS of Lake Forest College by Theodore Seuss Geisel, better known to the world as Dr. Seuss - Here's how it goes:My uncle ordered popoversmust spit out the air!"And . . .as you partake of the world's bill of fare,that's darned good advice to follow.Do a lot of spitting out the hot air.And be careful what you swallow.Thank you.学生毕业庆典演讲稿每年这时候，我们校园里都纠缠着留恋：睡在你上铺或下铺的兄弟同学，暗恋了数年的某个同学，“文泉”或“文澜”，“必逃的选修课和选逃的必修课”，对了，还有严老师，以及那已成为你青春之象征的钟塔。

苹果CEO库克华盛顿大学毕业英语演讲稿苹果CEO库克华盛顿大学毕业英语演讲稿Thank you very much President Knapp for that kind intro. Alex, trustees, faculty and deans of the university, my fellow honorees, and especially you the class of 2015. Yes.Congratulations to you, to your family, to your friends that are attending today's ceremony. You made it. It's a privilege, a rare privilege of a lifetime to be with you today. And I think thank you enough for making me an honorary Colonial.Before I begin today, they asked me to make a standard announcement. You’ve heard this before. About silencing your phones. Those of you with an iPhone, just place it in silent mode. If you don't have an iPhone, please pass it to the center aisle. Apple has a world-class recycling program.You know, this is really an amazing place. And for a lot of you, I’m sure that being here in Washington, the very center of our democracy, was a big draw when you were choosing which school to go to. This place has a powerful pull. It was here that Dr. Martin Luther King challenged Americans to make real the promises of democracy, to make justice a reality for all of God's children.And it was here that President Ronald Reagan called on us to believe in ourselves and to believe in our capacity to perform great deeds. I'd like to start this morning by telling you about my first visit here. In the summer of 1977 -- yes, I’m a little old -- I was 16 years old and living in Robertsdale, the small town in southern Alabama that I grew up in. At the end of my junior year of high school I’d won an essay contest sponsored by the National Rural Electric Association. I can't remember what theessay was about, what I do remember very clearly is writing it by hand, draft after draft after draft. Typewriters were very expensive and my family could not afford one.I was one of two kids from Baldwin County that was chosen to go to Washington along with hundreds of other kids across the country. Before we left, the Alabama delegation took a trip to our state capitol in Montgomery for a meeting with the governor. The governor's name was George C. Wallace. The same George Wallace who in 1963 stood in the schoolhouse door at the University of Alabama to block African Americans from enrolling. Wallace embraced the evils of segregation. He pitted whites against blacks, the South against the North, the working class against the so-called elites. Meeting my governor was not an honor for me.My heroes in life were Dr. Martin Luther King, and Robert F. Kennedy, who had fought against the very things that Wallace stood for. Keep in mind, that I grew up, or, when I grew up, I grew up in a place where King and Kennedy were not exactly held in high esteem. When I was a kid, the South was still coming to grips with its history. My textbooks even said the Civil War was about states’ rights. They barely mentioned slavery.So I had to figure out for myself what was right and true. It was a search. It was a process. It drew on the moral sense that I’d learned from my parents, and in church, and in my own heart, and led me on my own journey of discovery. I found books in the public library that they probably didn't know they had. They all pointed to the fact that Wallace was wrong. That injustices like segregation had no place in our world. That equality is a right.As I said, I was only 16 when I met Governor Wallace, so I shook his hand as we were expected to do. But shaking his handfelt like a betrayal of my own beliefs. It felt wrong. Like I was selling a piece of my soul.。

毕业典礼演讲稿英文版毕业典礼演讲稿英文版毕业典礼演讲稿英文版一Graduates of Yale University, I apologize if you have endured this type of prologue before, but I want you to do something for me. Please, take a ood look around you. Look at the classmate on your left. Look at the classmate on your right. Now, consider this: five years from now, 10 years from now, even 30 years from now, odds are the person on your left is going to be a loser. The person on your right, meanwhile, will also be a loser. And you, in the middle? What can you expect? Loser. Loserhood. Loser Cum Laude."In fact, as I look out before me today, I don't see a thousand hopes for a bright tomorrow. I don't see a thousand future leaders in a thousand industries. I see a thousand losers."You're upset. That's understandable. After all, how can I, Lawrence 'Larry' Ellison, college dropout, have the audacity to spout such heresy to the graduating class of one of the nation's most prestigious institutions? I'll tell you why. Because I, Lawrence "Larry" Ellison, second richest man on the planet, am a college dropout, and you are not."Because Bill Gates, richest man on the planet -- for now, anyway -- is a college dropout, and you are not."Because Paul Allen, the third richest man on the planet, dropped out of college, and you did not."And for good measure, because Michael Dell, No. 9 on the list and moving up fast, is a college dropout, and you, yet again, are not."Hmm . . . you're very upset. That's understandable. So let mestroke your egos for a moment by pointing out, quite sincerely, that your diplomas were not attained in vain. Most of you, I imagine, have spent four to five years here, and in many ways what you've learned and endured will serve you well in the years ahead. You've established good work habits. You've established a network of people that will help you down the road. And you've established what will be lifelong relationships with the word 'therapy.' All that of is good. For in truth, you will need that network. You will need those strong work habits. You will need that therapy."You will need them because you didn't drop out, and so you will never be among the richest people in the world. Oh sure, you may, perhaps, work your way up to No. 10 or No. 11, like Steve Ballmer. But then, I don't have to tell you who he really works for, do I? And for the record, he dropped out of grad school. Bit of a late bloomer."Finally, I realize that many of you, and hopefully by now most of you, are wondering, 'Is there anything I can do? Is there any hope for me at all?' Actually, no. It's too late. You've absorbed too much, think you know too much. You're not 19 anymore. You have a built-in cap, and I'm not referring to the mortar boards on your heads."Hmm... you're really very upset. That's understandable. So perhaps this would be a good time to bring up the silver lining. Not for you, Class of '00.

Ladies and Gentlemen, esteemed faculty, proud parents, and most importantly, the incredible Class of 2023,Good morning! Today, we gather here in this magnificent Harvard Yard, not just to celebrate the accomplishments of the Class of 2023, but to reflect on the journey that has brought us to this moment. As we stand on the precipice of our futures, I want to share with you some thoughts that have been swirling in my mind as I prepare to address you today.First and foremost, I want to congratulate each and every one of you for the incredible journey you have undertaken. Harvard is a place where dreams are fostered, where minds are stretched, and where character is forged. You have all demonstrated resilience, curiosity, and arelentless pursuit of knowledge. Your time here has been transformative, and I am confident that you will go on to make significant contributions to the world.As you leave this campus, you will carry with you not only the wisdom of your professors, but also the experiences of your fellow classmates. The friendships you have forged, the debates you have had, and the challenges you have overcome will shape you for the rest of your lives. Remember that these moments are the building blocks of your future, and they are worth cherishing.Now, let me take you back to a moment in my own life that has had a profound impact on me. It was during my freshman year of college when I first encountered the work of the famous psychologist Abraham Maslow. Maslow proposed the concept of a "hierarchy of needs," which suggests that human beings strive to fulfill certain needs before moving on to higher ones. The lowest level is the need for safety and security, and the highest level is self-actualization.As you leave Harvard, you may find yourself at various points on this hierarchy. Some of you may be secure in your careers and personal lives, while others may be navigating the uncertainties of the job market or the challenges of graduate school. But regardless of where you are, I want to encourage you to constantly seek self-actualization.Self-actualization is about embracing the unknown, about pushing the boundaries of your comfort zone, and about living a life that is authentic to who you are. It is not about the accumulation of wealth or status, but about the fulfillment of your potential and the impact you have on others.So, how do we embrace the unknown? How do we strive for self-actualization in a world that is constantly changing? Here are a few suggestions:1. Cultivate a growth mindset: Embrace challenges, be curious, and see failure as an opportunity to learn. Remember that success is not the absence of failure, but the persistence through it.2. Foster resilience: Life is unpredictable, and you will face setbacks. Develop the ability to bounce back from adversity and use those experiences as fuel for your growth.3. Seek balance: Balance your professional aspirations with your personal life. Remember that your well-being is just as important as your achievements.4. Embrace diversity: The world is a tapestry of cultures, ideas, and perspectives. Surround yourself with people who challenge you and broaden your horizons.5. Stay true to your values: In the pursuit of success, it is easy to lose sight of what truly matters to you. Stay grounded in your values and let them guide your decisions.As you embark on your post-Harvard journey, remember that the future is not a predetermined path, but a canvas upon which you will paint your own masterpiece. It is filled with possibilities, and it is up to you to create your own destiny.I want to leave you with a quote from the poet Rumi: "The only way to have a friend is to be one." As you go forth, be a friend to others. Be compassionate, be generous, and be open to the connections that will enrich your life.In closing, I want to say that you are all incredibly capable, and I have no doubt that you will achieve great things. But remember that the true measure of success is not the achievements you attain, but the impact you have on the world around you.Congratulations, Class of 2023. Go forth and make your mark on the world. The future is yours to create.Thank you.。

It is with great honor and immense gratitude that I stand before you today to deliver my commencement speech. I am humbled by the opportunity to share my thoughts with all of you, the graduates of [University Name], a place that has shaped me into the person I am today.First and foremost, I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to each and every one of you. You have worked tirelessly, overcome obstacles, and achieved your goals. This day is a testament to your hard work, dedication, and perseverance. You have earned this moment, and I am proud to be a part of it.As you sit here, with degrees in hand and dreams in your hearts, you may be feeling a mix of emotions: excitement, anxiety, and perhaps a touchof uncertainty. It is natural to question what lies ahead and how youwill navigate the challenges that life will undoubtedly bring. Today, I want to share with you some thoughts that have guided me through my own journey and may help you as you embark on yours.1. Embrace ChangeChange is the only constant in life. As you step into the next chapterof your life, you will face new experiences, challenges, and opportunities. Embrace change with an open mind and a positive attitude. Remember that every change brings an opportunity for growth and learning.2. Cultivate RelationshipsThe people you surround yourself with will greatly impact your journey. Invest time in building meaningful relationships with family, friends, and colleagues. These connections will provide you with support, guidance, and joy. Remember that a true friend is someone who walks with you through thick and thin.3. Pursue Your PassionsFollow your heart and pursue your passions. Life is too short to live without purpose and passion. Whether it is in your career, hobbies, or personal life, find what ignites your soul and pursue it with enthusiasm.Remember that success is not measured by the wealth you accumulate, but by the joy and fulfillment you experience.4. Never Stop LearningThe pursuit of knowledge is a lifelong journey. Embrace the spirit of curiosity and continue to learn throughout your life. Attend workshops, read books, and seek out new experiences. Never stop challengingyourself and expanding your horizons.5. Be KindKindness is a powerful force that can change the world. Treat others with respect, empathy, and compassion. Small acts of kindness can have a profound impact on the lives of those around you. Remember that kindness is a choice, and it is one that can make a difference.6. PersevereLife is filled with obstacles, and it is easy to become discouraged. When faced with adversity, remember that perseverance is the key to success. Stay focused on your goals, be patient, and never give up. Believe in yourself and your ability to overcome any challenge that comes your way.As you leave this institution, you may wonder what legacy you will leave behind. The truth is, your legacy will be defined by the impact you have on the lives of others. Be a leader, an innovator, and a mentor. Inspire others to dream big and to work hard to achieve their goals.In closing, I want to leave you with a quote from Nelson Mandela: "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." Your time at [University Name] has equipped you with the tools and knowledge to make a difference in the world. Use them wisely and with compassion.Ladies and Gentlemen, as you move forward, remember that you are capable of anything. Believe in yourself, follow your dreams, and never lose sight of your values. You have the power to change the world, and I have no doubt that you will.Congratulations, Class of [Year]. Go out and make your mark on the world. We are proud of you, and we cannot wait to see what you will accomplish.Thank you.。

丹泽尔·华盛顿宾夕法尼亚大学毕业典礼演讲英文讲稿英文原稿President Gutmann, Provost Price, Board Chair Cohen, fellow honorees, beautiful honorees, and today’s graduates:I’m honored and grateful for the invitation today. It's always been great to be on the Penn campus. I've been here before a lot of times for basketball games. My son played at the Palestra, played on the basketball team. Yeah, that's right, play on the basketball team. Coach didn't give him enough playing time, but we'll talk about that later. No, I’m really pleased with the progress that Coach Allen has made. No I did, I really am. And I hope them the best success in the future.Still, I’ll be honest with you: I’m a little nervous. I am not used to speaking at a graduation of this magnitude. It is a little overwhelming. It's out of my comfort zone. You dress me up in army fatigues. Throw me on top of a moving train. Someone said "Unstoppable". Or ask me to play Malcolm X, Rubin Hurricane Carter, Alonzo from Training Day: I can do that. But a commencement speech? It’s a very serious affair.It's a very different ballgame. There’s literally thousands and thousands of people here.And for those who say—you're a movie star, millions of people watch you speak all the time…That's true. Yes, that’s technically true. But I’m not actually in the theater—watching them watching me. I think that makes sense. I mean I'm not there when they cough… or fidget around… or pull out their iPhone and text their boyfriend… or scratch their behinds. Whatever they are known to be doing in a movie theater. But from up here: I can see every single one of you. And that makes me uncomfortable. So please, don’t pull out your iPhone and do n't text your boyfriend until after I’m done. But if you need to scratch your behinds, I understand. Go ahead.I was thinking about the speech, what should I say. I figured the best way to keep your attention, would be to talk about some really juicy Hollywood stuff. Like I thought about, me and Russell Crowe getting into some arguments on the set of American Gangster…but no. You’re a group of high-minded intellectuals. You’re not interested in that. Oh, maybe not. I thought about that “private” moment. I h ad backstage with Angelina Jolie in the dressing room at the Oscars? But I say no. I don’t think so. This is an Ivy League school. Angelina Jolie half-naked in her dressing room…? Who wants to hear about that? No one, no one, no one, no one, this is Penn. That stuff would never go over well here. Maybe at Drexel—but not over here. I’m in trouble now. I was back to square one—and feeling the pressure. So now you're probably thinking. If it was gonna be this difficult, this much pressure. Why’d I even accept today’s invitation? In the first place? Well, you know my son goes here. That’s No.1. That’s a good reason. And I always like to check to see how my money’s being spent. And I’m sure there's some parents out there who can relate to what I'm talking about! There everybody upstairs. And there were some other good reasons for me to show up. Sure, I got an Academy Award, but I never had something called “Magic Meatballs” after waiting in line for half an hour at a food truck. Yes, I talkedface-to-face with President Obama, but I never talked face-to-face with a guy named “Kweeder”, who sings bad songs at Smokes on a Tuesday night. I've never been a buis, I've never been a himos. Yes, I've played a detective battling demons, but I’ve never been to a school in my life. Where the squirrel population has gone bananas, breaking into the dorm rooms and taking over campus. I think I saw some carrying books on the way to class! So I had to be here. I had to come… even though I was afraid I might make a fool of myself. I n fact… if you really want to know the truth: I had to come… exactly because, I had to come exactly because I might make a fool of myself. What am I talking about? Here it is: I’ve found that nothing in life is worthwhile unless you take risks. Nothing. Ne lson Mandela said: “There is no passion to be found playing small in settling for a life that's less than the one you're capable of living.” I’m sure in your experiences—in school, in applying to college… in pickingyour major in deciding what you want to do with life people have told you to make sure you have something to “fall back on.” make sure you have something to “fall back on” honey. But I've never understood that concept, having something to fall back on. If I'm going to fall, I don't want to fall back on anything, except my faith. I want to fall… forward. At least I figure that way I'll see what I'm about to hit. Fall forward. Here's what I mean: Reggie Jackson struck out twenty-six-hundred times in his career the most in the history of baseball. But you don't hear about the strikeouts. People remember the home runs. Fall forward. Thomas Edison conducted 1,000 failed experiments. Did you know that? I didn't know that. Because #1,001 was the light bulb. Fall forward. Every failed experiment is one step closer to success. You've gotto take risks. And I'm sure you've probably heard that before. But I want to talk to you about why it’s so important. I’ve got three reasons—and then you can pick up your iPhones. First… you will fail at some point in your life. Accept it. You will lose. You will embarrass yourself. You will suck at something. There is no doubt about it. That’s probably not a traditional message for a graduation ceremony. But, hey I’m telling you—embrace it. Because it’s inevitable. And I sh ould know: In the acting business, you fail all the time. Early on in my career, I auditioned for a part in a Broadway musical. A perfect role for me, I thought except for the fact that I can’t sing. So I'm in the wings, about to go on stage but the guy in front of me, he is singing like... like... like Pavarotti just go on and on and on and on. And I am just shrinking getting smaller and smaller... so I said thank you, thank you very much, you'll be here from us. So I come out with my sheet music and it wa s “Just My Imagination” by the Temptations, that’s what I came up with. So I hand it to the accompanist, and she looks at it and looks at me and looks at the director... so I start to sing and so they're not saying anything. I think I must be getting better, so I start getting into it. They said "thank you, thank you very much, Mr. Washington, thank you." So I assume I didn't get the job. But the next part of audition they call me back. The next part of the audition is the acting part of audition. I figure, I can’t sing, but I know I can act. So they paired me with this guy and again I didn't know about musical theatre. And musical theatre is big, so they can reach everyone all the way in the back of the stadium and I was more from a realistic naturalistic kind of acting way. You know you actually talk to the person next to you. So I don't know what my line was, my line was "hand me the cup" his line was, “Wel l, I will hand you the cup, my dear, my cup will be there to be handed to you." I said, OK, well, should I give you the cup back? Oh yeah, you should give it back to me, because you know that is my cup. And that it should be given back to me. I didn't get the job. But here's the thing: I didn’t quit. I didn't fall back. I walked out of there to prepare for the next audition, and the nextaudition, and the next audition. I prayed and I prayed, and I prayed but I continued to fail, fail and fail. But it didn’t matter. Because you know what? There is an old saying: you hang around a barbershop long enough, sooner or later you are gonna get a haircut. You will catch a break. And I did catch a break. Last year I did a play called Fences on Broadway someone talked about it and I won a Tony Award. And I didn’t have to sing, by the way. And here’s the kicker—it was at the Court Theater, it's the same theater that I failed that first audition 30 years prior. The point is, and I will pick up the page. The point is, every graduate here today has the training and the talent to succeed. But do you have the guts to fail? Here's my second point about failure: If you don't fail… you’re not even trying. I'll say it again. If you don't fail… you're not even trying. My wife told me this great expression: “To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.” Les Brown, a motivational speaker, made an analogy about this. Imagine you're on your deathbed and standing around your deathbed are the ghosts representing your unfulfilled potential. The ghosts of the ideas you never acted on. The ghosts of the talents you didn't use. And they're standing around your bed. Angry. Disappointed. And upset. “We came to you because you could have brought us to life,” they say. “And now we have to go to the grave together.” So I ask you today: How many ghosts are gonna be around your bed when your time comes? You have invested a lot in your education. And people have invested in you. And let me tell you, the world needs your talents more than it does ever. I just got back from Africa two days ago. So I am rambling on because I am jetlegged. I just got back from South Africa. It's a beautiful country, but there are places there with terrible poverty that needs help. And Africa is just the tip of the iceberg.The Middle East needs your help.Japan needs your help.Alabama needs your help and Tennessee needs your help.Louisiana needs your help.Philadelphia needs your help.The world...The world needs a lot—and we need it from you, we really do, we need it from you, young people. I mean I am not speaking for the rest of us up here. I know I am getting a little greyer. We need it from you, the young people. So remember this. So get outthere. You gotta give it everything you've got, whether it's your time, your talent, your prayers, or your treasures. Because remember this: You’ll never see a U-Haul behind a hearse. I'll say that again. You’ll never see a U-Haul behind a hearse. I will say it again you'll never see a U-Haul behind a hearse. You can't take it with you. The Egyptians tried it and all they got was robbed!So the question is: So what are you going to do with what you have?And I'm not talking how much you have.Some of you are business majors.Some of you are theologians, nurses, sociologists.Some of you have money.Some of you have patience.Some of you have kindness.Some of you have love. Some of you have the gift of long-suffering.Whatever it is, whatever your gift is.-What are you going to do with what you have?Alright now, here's my last point about failure:Sometimes it's the best way to figure out where you're going.Your life will never be a straight path. I began at Fordham University as a pre-med student. I took a course called “Cardiac Morphogenesis.” I still can't say it. “Cardiac Morphogenesis.” I couldn’t read it. I couldn't say it… and I am sure I couldn't pass it. Then I decided to go into pre-law. Then journalism. With no academic focus, my grades took off in their own direction: down. I was a 1.8 GPA in one semester, and the university very politely suggested it might be better to take some time off. I was 20 years old. I was at my lowest point. And then one day—and I remember the exact day: March 27th, 1975. I was helping my mother in her beauty shop. My mother owned a beauty shop up in Mount Vernon. There was this old woman who was considered one of the eldest in the town. I didn't know her personally. I was looking in the mirror. Every time I looked into the mirror, I can see it behind me. She was staring at me. She just kept looking at me. Every time I looked at her, she kept givingme these strange looks. She finally took the drier off her head and said something to me I’ll never forget: first of all, somebody gives me a piece of paper. She said,” Young boy,”“I have a prophecy: a spiritual prophecy: she said you are going to travel the world and speak to millions of people.” I mind you I'm twenty years old. I've flunk out of school. In fact, like a wise-ass, I’m thinking to myself: Maybe she's got something in that crystal ball about me getting back to school next fall? But maybe she was onto something. Because later that summer, while working as a counselor at a YMCA camp in Connecticut, we put on a talent show for the campers. After the show, another counselor came up to me and asked: “Have you ever thought about acting? You’re good at that.” When I got back to Fordham that fall. I got in. I changed my major once again for the last time. And in the years that followed just as that woman prophesized I have traveled the world and I have spoken to millions of people through my movies. Millions who—up till today I couldn’t see while I was talking to them. And they couldn't see me, because they could only see the movie. They couldn't see the real me. But I see you today. And I'm encouraged by what I see. And I'm strengthened by what I see. And I love what I see. one more page, and I'll shut up. Let me conclude with this one final point. Actually the president kind of brought it up. It has to do with the movie "Philadelphia". She stole my material. Many years ago, I did this movie called "Philadelphia". We filmed some of the scenes right here on campus. Philadelphia came out in 1993, when most of you were probably still in diapers. Some of the professors, too. I cracked up myself. But it was a good movie. Rent it on Netflix. It's a good movie. I get 23 cents every time you rent it. Parents up there, rent it from Netflix please. Tell your friends, too! It's about a man, played by Tom Hanks, who's fired from his law firm because he has AIDS. He wants to sue the firm, but no one's willing to represent him until a homophobic, ambulance-chasing lawyer—played by yours truly takes on the case. In a way, if you watch the movie, you'll see everything I’m talking about today. You'll see what I mean about taking risks or being willing to fail. Because taking a risk is not just about going for a job.It's also about knowing what you know and what you don't know. It’s about being open to people and to ideas. In the course of the film, the character I play begins to take small steps. Small risks He very very very slowly begins to overcome his fears, and ultimately his heart becomes flooded with love. And I can't think of a better message as we send you off today. To not only take risks, but to be open to life. To accept new views and to be open to new opinions. To be willing to speak at commencement at one of the best universities in the country. Even though you're scared stiff. While it may be frightening, it will also be rewarding. Because the chances you take…the people you meet…the people you love...the faith that yo uhave—that's what's going to define your life. So… members of the class of 2011: This is your mission: When you leave the friendly confines of Philly: Never be discouraged. Never hold back. And when you fall throughout life and maybe even tonight after a few too many glasses of champagne remember this fall forward.Congratulations, I love you.God bless you, I respect you.。

关于大学毕业典礼英文演讲稿5篇大学毕业典礼英文演讲稿【篇1】Madam President Faust， members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers，faculty， family， friends， and， most importantly，todays graduates，Thank you for letting me share this wonderful day with you.I am not sure I can live up to the high standards of Harvard Commencement speakers. Lastyear， J.K. Rowling， the billionaire novelist， who started as a classics student， graced thispodium. The year before， Bill Gates， the mega-billionaire philanthropist and computer nerdstood here. Today， sadly， you have me. I am not wealthy， but at least I am a nerd.I am grateful to receive an honorary degree from Harvard， an honor that means more to methan you might care to imagine. You see， I was the academic black sheep of my family. Myolder brother has an M.D./Ph.D. from MIT and Harvard while my younger brother has a lawdegree from Harvard. When I was awarded a Nobel Prize， I thought my mother would besatisfied. Not so. When I called her on the morning of the announcement， she replied，"Thatsnice， but when are you going to visit me next." Now， as the last brother with a degree fromHarvard， maybe， at last， she will be satisfied.Another difficulty with giving a Harvard commencement address is that some of you maydisapprove of the fact that I have borrowed material from previous speeches. I ask that youforgive me for two reasons.First， in order to have impact， it is important to deliver the same message more than once. Inscience， it is important to be the first person to make a discovery， but it is even more importantto be the last person to make that discovery.Second， authors who borrow from others are following in the footsteps of the best. Ralph WaldoEmerson， who graduated from Harvard at the age of 18， noted "All my best thoughts werestolen by the ancients." Picasso declared "Good artists borrow. Great artists steal." Why shouldcommencement speakers be held to a higher standard?I also want to point out the irony of speaking to graduates of an institution that would haverejected me， had I the chutzpah to apply. I am married to "Dean Jean，" the former dean ofadmissions 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 youadmission." I have difficulty understanding the difference. After all， deans of admissions ofhighly selective schools are in reality， "deans of rejection." Clearly， I have a lot to learn aboutmarketing.My address will follow the classical sonata form of commencement addresses. The firstmovement， just presented， were light-hearted remarks. This next movement consists ofunsolicited advice， which is rarely valued， seldom remembered， never followed. As Oscar Wildesaid，"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 tothose who made it possible. Thankyour parents and friends who supported you， thank yourprofessors who were inspirational， and especially thank the other professors whoseless-than-brilliant lectures forced you to teach yourself. Going forward，the ability to teach yourself is thehallmark of a great liberal arts education and will be the key to your success. To your fellowstudents who have added immeasurably to your education during those late night discussions，hug them. Also， of course， thank Harvard. Should you forget，theres an alumni association toremind you. Second， in your future life，cultivate a generous spirit. In all negotiations， dontbargain 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.大学毕业典礼英文演讲稿【篇2】Answering speechDear professors and dear friends of China Jiliang University,I’m honored to address you on behalf of all the graduations this year.I would like to thank my parents, classmates, and friends who helped us ,and encouraged and supported us as we worked towards to our graduate degrees.I also want to thank Jiliang’s faculty members who served as our instructors，mentor, and friends, relatives, like Prof.Yu, Prof.Gao, Mrs. Liang. Through their commitments, they have inspired us to achieve and guided us to our dream.On this stage, at my graduation ceremony, when I look back my four years at Jiliang, my mind is filled with memories. May be you will ask me: do you have special to share? Yes, I want to share few simple but critical suggestions with you and with for the coming juniors: First, be work hard and think smart.Secondly, believe things happened for a reason.Thirdly, just as Jobs said at the graduation ceremony in Stanford University, stay hungry, stay foolish.Today, we will graduate from China Jiliang University, but we will be with Jiliang forever. Let us think forward and work together to make the new history of China Jiliang University.Thank you.大学毕业典礼英文演讲稿【篇3】When I was in middle school, a poisonous spider bit my right hand.I ran to my mom for help—but instead of taking me to a doctor, my mom set my hand on fire.After wrapping my hand withseveral layers of cotton, then soaking it in wine, she put a chopstick into my mouth,and ignited the cotton. Heat quickly penetrated the cotton and began to roast my hand. The searing pain made me want to scream, but the chopstick prevented it. All I could do was watch my hand burn - one minute, then two minutes –until mom put out the fire.You see, the part of China I grew up in was a rural village, and at that time pre-industrial. When I was born, my village had no cars, no telephones, no electricity, not even running water. And we certainly didn’t have access to modern medical resources. There was no doctor my mother could bring me to see about my spider bite.For those who study biology, you may have grasped the science behind my mom’s cure: heat deactivates proteins, and a spider’s venom is simply a form of protein. It’s coolhow that folk remedy actually incorporates basic biochemistry, isn’t itBut I am a PhD student in biochemistry at Harvard, I now know that better, less painful and less risky treatments existed. So I can’t help but ask myself, why I didn’t receive oneat the time.Fifteen years have passed since that incident. I am happy to report that my hand is fine. But this question lingers, and I continue to be troubled by the unequal distribution of scientific knowledge throughout the world. We have learned to edit the human genome and unlock many secrets of how cancer progresses. We can manipulate neuronal activity literally with the switch of a light. Each year brings more advances in biomedical research-exciting, transformative accomplishments. Yet, despite the knowledge we have amassed, we haven’t been so successful in deploying it to where it’s needed most. According to the World Bank, twelve percent of the world’s population lives on less than $2 a day. Malnutrition kills more than 3 million children annually. Three hundred million peopleare afflicted by malaria globally. All over the world, we constantly see these problems of poverty, illness, and lack of resources impeding the flow of scientific information. Lifesaving knowledge we take for granted in the modern world is often unavailable in these underdeveloped regions.And infar too many places, people are still essentially trying to cure a spider bite with fire.While studying at Harvard, I saw how scientific knowledge can help others in simple, yet profound ways. The bird flu pandemic in the 2000s looked to my village like a spell cast by demons. Our folk medicine didn’t even have half-measures to offer. What’s more, farmers didn’t know the difference between common cold and flu; they didn’t understand that the flu was much more lethal than the common cold. Most people were also unaware that the virus could transmit across different species.So when I realized that simple hygiene practices like separating different animal species could contain the spread of the disease, and that I could help make this knowledge available to my village, that was my first ―Aha‖moment as a budding scientist. But it was more than that: it was also a vital inflection point in my own ethical development, my ownself-understanding as a member of the global community.Harvard dares us to dream big, to aspire to change the world. Here on this Commencement Day, we are probably thinking of grand destinations and big adventures that await us. As for me, I am also thinking of the farmers in my village. My experiencehere reminds me how important it is for researchersto communicateour knowledge to those who need it. Because by using the sciencewe already have, wecould probably bring my village and thousands like it into the world you and I take for granted every day. And that’s an impact every one of us can make!But the question is, will we make the effort or notMore than ever before,our society emphasizes science and innovation. But an equally important emphasis should be on distributing the knowledge we have to where it’s needed. Changing the world doesn’t mean thateveryone has to find the next big thing. It can be as simple as becoming better communicators, and finding more creative ways to pass on the knowledge we have to people like my mom and the farmers in their local community. Our society also needs to recognize that the equal distribution of knowledge is a pivotal step of human development, and work to bring this into reality.And if we do that, then perhaps a teenager in rural China who is bitten by a spider will not have to burn his hand, but will know to seek a doctor instead.大学毕业典礼英文演讲稿【篇4】Honorable teachers, principles, dear parents and students:Good morning to you all. On this sunny and unforgettable day, we gladly welcome you to our grade 12’s graduation ceremony.Two years ago, when we first came to this program and began our three years of high school education.

It was your high spirits that encouraged us, and pointed us in the right way. It was your harmony that united us, urging us to stand our ground and charge fearlessly forward.Three years, 36 months(thirty-six), 1095 days(one thousand and ninety-five), 26280 hours(twenty-six thousand two hundred and eighty), 1576800 minutes(1 million five hundred and seventy-six thousand eight hundred), 94608000 seconds(ninety-four million six hundred and eight thousand). Your confidence, patience and determination have grown. Under the guidance of Mrs. Lv, you have achieved success which we celebrate today.We look up to you as role models and you are our heroes. We built a relationship not unlike that of a great, big, family. Working together has made us familiar to each other and know each other from the bottom of our hearts. Seeing you mature every day from morning to night, motivating us, makes us more mature.Yesterday, you were proud of this program, today, this program is proud because of you.

You will walk towards the light of the glory of tomorrow, with our best wishes from the bottom of our hearts! Go for it Best of Luck,TheGrade11’s大学毕业典礼英文演讲稿【篇5】Unlike any other creature on this planet, humans can learn and understand, without having experienced. They can think themselves into other people’s minds, imagine themselves into other people’s places.Of course, this is a power, like my brand of fictional magic, that is morally neutral. One might use such an ability to manipulate, or control, just as much as to understand or sympathise.And many prefer not to exercise their imaginations at all. They choose to remain comfortably within the bounds of their own experience, never troubling to wonder how it would feel to have been born other than they are. They can refuse to hear screams or to peer inside cages; they can close their minds and hearts to any suffering that does not touch them personally; they can refuse to know.I might be tempted to envy people who can live that way, except that I do not think they have any fewer nightmares than I do. Choosing to live in narrow spaces can lead to a form of mental agoraphobia, and that brings its own terrors. I think the wilfully unimaginative see more monsters. They are often more afraid.What is more, those who choose not to empathize may enable real monsters. For without ever committing an act of outright evil ourselves, we collude with it, through our own apathy.One of the many things I learned at the end of that Classics corridor down which I ventured at the age of 18, in search of something I could not then define, was this, written by the Greek author Plutarch: What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.That is an astonishing statement and yet proven a thousand times every day of our lives. It expresses, in part, our inescapable connection with the outside world, the fact that we touch other people’s lives simply by existing.But how much more are you, Harvard graduates of 20XX, likely to touch other people’s lives? Your intelligence, your capacity for hard work, the education you have earned and received, give you unique status, and unique responsibilities. Even your nationality sets you apart. The great majority of you belong to the world’s only remaining superpower. The way you vote, the way you live, the way you protest, the pressure you bring to bear on your government, has an impact way beyond your borders. That is your privilege, and your burden.If you choose to use your status and influence to raise your voice on behalf of those who have no voice; if you choose to identify not only with the powerful, but with the powerless; if you retain the ability to imagine yourself into the lives of those who do not have your advantages, then it will not only be your proud families who celebrate your existence, but thousands and millions of people whose reality you have helped transform for the better. We do not need magic to change the world, wecarry all the power we need inside ourselves already: we have the power to imagine better.I am nearly finished. I have one last hope for you, which is something that I already had at 21. The friends with whom I sat on graduation day have been my friends for life. They are my children’s godparents, the people to whom I’ve been able to turn in times of trouble, friends who have been kind enough not to sue me when I’ve used their names for Death Eaters. At our graduation we were bound by enormous affection, by our shared experience of a time that could never come again, and, of course, by the knowledge that we held certain photographic evidence that would be exceptionally valuable if any of us ran for Prime Minister.So today, I can wish you nothing better than similar friendships. And tomorrow, I hope that even if you remember not a single word of mine, you remember those of Seneca, another of those old Romans I met when I fled down the Classics corridor, in retreat from career ladders, in search of ancient wisdom:。

苹果CEO库克华盛顿大学【最新】毕业英语演讲稿Thank you very much President Knapp for that kind intro. Alex, trustees, faculty and deans of the university, myfellow honorees, and especially you the class of . Yes.Congratulations to you, to your family, to your friends that are attending today's ceremony. You made it. It's a privilege, a rare privilege of a lifetime to be with you today. And I think thank you enough for making me an honorary Colonial.Before I begin today, they asked me to make a standard announcement. You’ve heard this before. About silencing your phones. Those of you with an iPhone, just place it in silent mode. If you don't have an iPhone, please pass it to the center aisle. Apple has a world-class recycling program.You know, this is really an amazing place. And for a lot of you, I’m sure that being here in Washington, the very center of our democracy, was a big draw when you were choosing which school to go to. This place has a powerful pull. It was here that Dr. Martin Luther King challenged Americans to make real the promises of democracy, to make justice a reality for all of God's children.And it was here that President Ronald Reagan called on us to believe in ourselves and to believe in our capacity to perform great deeds. I'd like to start this morning bytelling you about my first visit here. In the summer of1977 -- yes, I’m a little old -- I was 16 years old and living in Robertsdale, the small town in southern Alabamathat I grew up in. At the end of my junior year of high school I’d won an essay contest sponsored by the National Rural Electric Association. I can't remember what the essay was about, what I do remember very clearly is writing it by hand, draft after draft after draft. Typewriters were very expensive and my family could not afford one.I was one of two kids from Baldwin County that was chosen to go to Washington along with hundreds of other kids across the country. Before we left, the Alabama delegation took a trip to our state capitol in Montgomery for a meeting with the governor. The governor's name was George C. Wallace. The same George Wallace who in 1963 stood in the schoolhouse door at the University of Alabama to block African Americans from enrolling. Wallace embraced the evils of segregation. He pitted whites against blacks, the South against the North, the working class against the so-called elites. Meeting my governor was not an honor for me.My heroes in life were Dr. Martin Luther King, and Robert F. Kennedy, who had fought against the very things that Wallace stood for. Keep in mind, that I grew up, or, when I grew up, I grew up in a place where King and Kennedy were not exactly held in high esteem. When I was a kid, the South was still coming to grips with its history. My textbooks even said the Civil War was about states’ rights. They barely mentioned slavery.So I had to figure out for myself what was right and true. It was a search. It was a process. It drew on the moral sense that I’d learned from my parents, and in church, and in my own heart, and led me on my own journey of discovery. I found books in the public library that they probably didn't know they had. They all pointed to the fact that Wallace was wrong. That injustices like segregation had no place in our world. That equality is a right.As I said, I was only 16 when I met Governor Wallace, so I shook his hand as we were expected to do. But shaking his hand felt like a betrayal of my own beliefs. It felt wrong. Like I was selling a piece of my soul.From Montgomery we flew to Washington. It was the first time I had ever been on an airplane. In fact it was the first time that I traveled out of the South. On June 15, 1977, I was one of 900 high schoolers greeted by the new president, President Jimmy Carter, on the south lawn of the White House, right there on the other side of the ellipse. I was one of the lucky ones, who got to shake his hand. Carter saw Baldwin County on my name tag that day and stopped to speak with me. He wanted to know how people were doing after the rash of storms that struck Alabama that year. Carter was kind and compassionate; he held the most powerful job in the world but he had not sacrificed any of his humanity. I felt proud that he was president. And I felt proud that he was from the South. In the space of a week, I had come face to face with two men who guaranteed themselves a place in history. They came from the same region. They were from the same political party. They were both governors of adjoining states. But they looked at the world in very different ways. It was clear to me, that one was right, and one was wrong. Wallace had built his political career by exploiting divisions between us. Carter's message on the other hand, was that we are all bound together, every one of us. Each had made a journey that led them to the values that they lived by, but it wasn't just about their experiences or their circumstances, it had to come from within.My own journey in life was just beginning. I hadn't even applied for college yet at that point. For you graduates, the process of discovering yourself, of inventing yourself, of reinventing yourself is about to begin in earnest. It's about finding your values and committing to live by them. You haveto find your North Star. And that means choices. Some are easy. Some are hard. And some will make you question everything. Twenty years after my visit to Washington, I met someone who made me question everything. Who upended all of my assumptions in the very best way. That was Steve Jobs.Steve had built a successful company. He had been sent away and he returned to find it in ruins. He didn't know it at the time, but he was about to dedicate the rest of hislife to rescuing it, and leading it to heights greater than anyone could ever imagine. Anyone, that is, except for Steve. Most people have forgotten, but in 1997 and early 1998, Apple had been adrift for years. Rudderless. But Steve thought Apple could be great again. And he wanted to know if I’dlike to help.His vision for Apple was a company that turned powerful technology into tools that were easy to use, tools that would help people realize their dreams. And change the world for the better. I had studied to be an engineer and earned an M.B.A. I was trained to be pragmatic, a problem solver. Now I found myself sitting before and listening to this very animated 40-something guy with visions of changing the world. It was not what I had expected. You see, when it came to my career, in 1998, I was also adrift. Rudderless.I knew who I was in my personal life, and I kept my eye on my North Star, my responsibility to do good for someone else, other than myself. But at work, well I always figured that work was work. Values had their place and, yes, there were things that I wanted to change about the world, but I thought I had to do that on my own time. Not in the office. Steve didn't see it that way. He was an idealist. And in that way he reminded me of how I felt as a teenager. In that first meeting he convinced me if we worked hard and made great products, we too could help change the world. And to mysurprise, I was hooked. I took the job and changed my life.It's been 17 years and I have never once looked back.At Apple we believe the work should be more than just about improving your own self. It's about improving the lives of others as well. Our products do amazing things. And just as Steve envisioned, they empower people all over the world. People who are blind, and need information read to them because they can't see the screen. People for whom technology is a lifeline because they are isolated by distance or disability. People who witness target=_blankclass=infotextkey>witness injustice and want to expose it, and now they can because they have a camera in their pocket all the time.Our commitment goes beyond the products themselves to how they’re made. To our impact on the environment. To the role we play in demanding and promoting equality. And in improving education. We believe that a company that has values and acts on them can really change the world. And an individual can too. That can be you. That must be you. Graduates, your values matter. They are your North Star. And work takes on new meaning when you feel you are pointed in the right direction. Otherwise, it's just a job, and life is too short for that. We need the best and brightest of your generation to lead in government and in business. In the science and in the arts. In journalism and in academia. There is honor inall of these pursuits. And there is opportunity to do work that is infused with moral purpose. You don't have to choose between doing good and doing well. It's a false choice, today more than ever.Your challenge is to find work that pays the rent, puts food on the table, and lets you do what is right and good and just.So find your North Star. Let it guide you in life, and work, and in your life's work. Now, I suspect some of you aren't buying this. I won't take it personally. It's no surprise that people are skeptical, especially here in Washington. Where these days you’ve got plenty of reason to be. And a healthy amount of skepticism is fine. Though too often in this town, it turns to cynicism. To the idea that no matter who’s talking or what they’re saying, that their motives are questionable, their character is suspect, and if you search hard enough, you can prove that they are lying. Maybe that's just the world we live in. But graduates, thisis your world to change.As I said, I am a proud son of the South. It's my home, and I will a lways love it. But for the last 17 years I’ve built a life in Silicon Valley; it's a special place. The kind of place where there’s no problem that can't be solved. No matter how difficult or complex, that's part of its essential quality. A very sincere sort of optimism. Back in the 90s, Apple ran an advertising campaign we called “Think Different.” It was pretty simple. Every ad was a photograph of one of our heroes. People who had the audacity to challenge and change the way we all live. People like Gandhi and Jackie Robinson, Martha Graham and Albert Einstein, Amelia Earhart and Miles Davis. These people still inspire us. They remind us to live by our deepest values and reachfor our highest aspirations. They make us believe that anything is possible. A friend of mine at Apple likes to say the best way to solve a problem is to walk into a room full of Apple engineers and proclaim, “this is impossible.”I can tell you, they will not accept that. And neither should you. So that's the one thing I’d like to bring to you all the way from Cupertino, California. The idea that great progress is possible, whatever line of work you choose. There will always be cynics and critics on the sidelines tearingpeople down, and just as harmful are those people with good intentions who make no contribution at all. In his letter from the Birmingham jail, Dr. King wrote that our society needed to repent, not merely for the hateful words of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people.The sidelines are not where you want to live your life. The world needs you in the arena. There are problems that need to be solved. Injustices that need to be ended. People that are still being persecuted, diseases still in need of cure. No matter what you do next, the world needs your energy. Your passion. Your impatience with progress. Don't shrink from risk. And tune out those critics and cynics. History rarely yields to one person, but think, and never forget, what happens when it does. That can be you. That should be you. That must be you.Congratulations Class of . I’d like to take one photo of you, because this is the best view in the world. And it's a great one.Thank you very much.。

Good morning/afternoon/evening! It is with great pleasure and a sense of accomplishment that I stand before you today to deliver my graduation speech. Today, we gather to celebrate the culmination of our academic journey, to reflect on our experiences, and to look forward to the future. As we move forward, let us take a moment to appreciate the past, for it has shaped us into the individuals we are today.First and foremost, I would like to express my gratitude to my parents, family, and friends for their unwavering support throughout my academic journey. Their love, encouragement, and guidance have been instrumental in my success. I am forever grateful for their sacrifices and the opportunities they have provided me.As we reflect on our time at this esteemed institution, we must acknowledge the invaluable lessons we have learned. The pursuit of knowledge has not only broadened our horizons but also equipped us with the skills necessary to thrive in the ever-evolving global landscape. From rigorous coursework to engaging extracurricular activities, our time here has been a journey of self-discovery and personal growth.One of the most significant lessons I have learned is the importance of resilience. Throughout our academic journey, we have faced numerous challenges, be it academic pressure, personal struggles, or unforeseen circumstances. It is through these challenges that we have developed resilience, the ability to bounce back from adversity and emerge stronger. Resilience is not only a personal quality but also acollective strength that will serve us well as we navigate the complexities of life.Another lesson we have learned is the value of teamwork. Collaboration and cooperation have been at the heart of our academic experiences. We have worked together on projects, shared ideas, and supported one another through thick and thin. This teamwork has not only honed our interpersonal skills but also taught us the importance of empathy and understanding. In an interconnected world, the ability to work effectively with others is a crucial skill that will enable us to make a positive impact on society.Furthermore, our time here has emphasized the importance of lifelong learning. The knowledge we have acquired is just the beginning of our intellectual journey. As we move forward, we must remain curious, open-minded, and committed to continuous learning. The world is constantly evolving, and we must be prepared to adapt and grow with it. Lifelong learning is not only essential for personal development but also for contributing to the betterment of our communities and the world at large.As we stand on the brink of a new chapter in our lives, let us notforget the values we have learned and the lessons we have internalized. As we embark on our respective paths, let us carry with us the resilience, teamwork, and commitment to lifelong learning that have shaped us.To my fellow graduates, let us embrace the opportunities that lie ahead with courage and determination. Let us use our skills and knowledge to make a positive impact on the world. Whether we choose to pursue careers, further our education, or embark on entrepreneurial endeavors, let us do so with passion and purpose.In conclusion, I want to extend my heartfelt congratulations to all the graduates present today. Your hard work, dedication, and perseverance have paid off. You have earned this moment of celebration and reflection. As you move forward, remember that you are capable of achieving greatness. Embrace the challenges that lie ahead, and never lose sightof your dreams.Thank you, and congratulations to us all!。

Today, as we stand on the precipice of a new chapter in our lives, I am honored to have the opportunity to address you all. The air is thick with a mix of emotions – excitement, anxiety, and a tinge of nostalgia. We have journeyed together through countless lectures, assignments, and late-night study sessions, and now, as we prepare to step into the world beyond these hallowed halls, I want to share a few thoughts with you.Firstly, let me express my gratitude. To the faculty who have poured their knowledge and wisdom into us, to the administrators who have guided us through the intricacies of university life, and to the parents and families who have supported us through every step of our journey. Your unwavering belief in us has been the cornerstone of our success.As we celebrate this momentous occasion, it is important to reflect on what we have learned and how we have grown. College has been more than just a place to acquire knowledge; it has been a laboratory for our personal development. We have learned the art of critical thinking, the value of teamwork, and the importance of perseverance. These skills will serve us well as we navigate the complexities of the real world.But let us not forget the power of curiosity. College has been a journey of discovery, and it is this curiosity that will drive us forward. The world is vast and full of wonders, and it is up to us to explore and uncover them. Whether it is through scientific research, artistic expression, or cultural exchange, we must remain curious and eager to learn.As we leave the confines of this institution, we must also remember the importance of community. We have been part of a close-knit community here, one that has embraced us and supported us. Now, as we scatter to different corners of the globe, let us carry that sense of community with us. Let us reach out to others, be open to new experiences, and create our own communities wherever we go.In the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., "Life's most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?" As we embark on our careers and personal endeavors, let us not lose sight of the fact that our success is not solely defined by our achievements, but by the impactwe have on the lives of others. Let us be the change we wish to see in the world.We have been taught to dream big, and I encourage you to do just that. Dream of the impossible, strive for excellence, and never settle for mediocrity. The future is yours to shape, and the possibilities are endless. But remember, with great power comes great responsibility. As we take on new roles and challenges, let us do so with integrity, compassion, and a sense of justice.In closing, I want to leave you with a few final thoughts. Embrace the uncertainty of the future with open arms. Celebrate your successes, learn from your failures, and never stop believing in yourself. Remember that the best is yet to come, and that you have the power to make it so.To my fellow graduates, let us go forth with confidence, determination, and the knowledge that we are part of something greater than ourselves. We are the graduates of [University Name], and the world is our stage. Thank you, and congratulations.Godspeed.[Your Name]。

美国毕业英文演讲稿Dear graduates, esteemed faculty members, and honored guests,。

It is with great pleasure and gratitude that I stand before you today to deliver this commencement speech. As we gather here to celebrate the culmination of our academic journey, I am filled with a sense of pride and accomplishment. Today marks a significant milestone in our lives, as we prepare to step out into the world and pursue our dreams.The theme of today's speech is "The Power of Resilience." As we reflect on our time here at this esteemed institution, we can all attest to the challenges and obstacles we have faced along the way. From late-night study sessions to daunting exams, from personal struggles to moments of self-doubt, each of us has encountered setbacks that tested our resolve. However, it is our ability to bounce back from these setbacks that has shaped us into the resilient individuals we are today.Resilience is the capacity to persevere in the face of adversity, to adapt to change, and to emerge stronger from life's trials. It is the inner strength that enables us to confront challenges with courage and determination. As we embark on the next chapter of our lives, it is crucial to remember that resilience will be our greatest asset. In a world filled with uncertainty and unpredictability, the ability to bounce back from setbacks and forge ahead with unwavering determination will set us apart.The journey ahead will undoubtedly present us with new challenges and opportunities. We may encounter setbacks, face rejection, and experience moments of doubt. However, it is important to remember that these obstacles are not insurmountable. With resilience as our guiding force, we have the power to overcome any hurdle and emerge victorious.In the words of renowned author and poet Maya Angelou, "You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still comeout of it." These words serve as a powerful reminder that setbacks are not indicative of failure, but rather an opportunity for growth and self-discovery.As we stand on the brink of a new beginning, let us embrace the power of resilience. Let us face the future with unwavering determination, knowing that we have the strength to overcome any challenge that comes our way. Let us remember that setbacks are not roadblocks, but rather stepping stones on the path to success.In conclusion, I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to my fellow graduates. As we leave this institution and embark on our respective journeys, let us carry with us the indomitable spirit of resilience. Let us face the future with courage, determination, and an unwavering belief in our ability to overcome any obstacle. The world awaits us, and I am confident that each and every one of us has the power to make a lasting impact.Thank you.。
