1. 乔布斯（Steve Jobs）在斯坦福毕业典礼的演讲——Stay hungry. Stay foolish.
When I was 17， I read a quote that went something like： “If you live each day as if it was your last， someday you’ll most certainly be right.” It made an impression on me， and since then， for the past 33 years， I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself： “If today were the last day of my life， would I want to do what I am about to do today？” And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a row， I know I need to change something.
当我十七岁的时候，我读到了一句话：“如果你把每一天都当作生命中最后一天去生活的话，那么有一天你会发现你是正确的。”这句话给我留下了深刻的印象。从那时开始，过了33 年，我在每天早晨都会对着镜子问自己：“如果今天是我生命中的最后一天，你会不会完成你今天想做的事情呢？”当答案连续很多次被给予“不是”的时候，我知道自己需要改变某些事情了。
2. 杰夫·贝佐斯（Jeff Bezos）在普林斯顿毕业典礼的演讲——We are our choices.
I didn’t think I’d regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.
我认为我不会为失败地尝试而遗憾，但是有所决定但完全不去付诸行动则可能会一直煎熬着我。
Will inertia be your guide， or will you follow your passions？
你们是被惯性所引导，还是追随自己内心的热情？
Will you follow dogma， or will you be original？
你们会墨守陈规，还是勇于创新？
Will you choose a life of ease， or a life of service and adventure？
你们会选择安逸的生活，还是选择一个奉献与冒险的人生？
Will you wilt under criticism， or will you follow your convictions？
你们会屈从于批评，还是会坚守信念？
Will you bluff it out when you’re wrong， or will you apologize？
你们会掩饰错误，还是会坦诚道歉？
Will you guard your heart against rejection， or will you act when you fall in love？
你们会因害怕拒绝而掩饰内心，还是会在面对爱情时勇往直前？
Will you play it safe， or will you be a little bit swashbuckling？
你们想要波澜不惊，还是想要搏击风浪？
When it’s tough， will you give up， or will you be relentless？
你们会在严峻的现实之下选择放弃，还是会义无反顾地前行？
Will you be a cynic， or will you be a builder？
你们要做愤世嫉俗者，还是踏实的建设者？
Will you be clever at the expense of others， or will you be kind？
你们要不计一切代价地展示聪明，还是选择善良？
3. JK罗琳在哈佛大学毕业典礼上的演讲——As is a tale， so is life： not how long it is， but how good it is， is what matters
Given a time machine or a Time Turner， I would tell my 21-year-old self that personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a check-list of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications， your CV， are not your life， though you will meet many people of my age and older who confuse the two. Life is difficult， and complicated， and beyond anyone’s total control， and the humility to know that will enable you to survive its vicissitudes.
如果能回到过去，她会告诉21岁的自己：一个人的幸福在于他懂得——生活不等于你的收获和成就。你的简历，你的证书并不代表你的生活，尽管很多人会混淆着两者。生活是如此的复杂，任何人都无法掌控它。明白了这一点，你就能够宠辱不惊。
4. 奥普拉（Oprah）在斯坦福2008年毕业典礼上的演讲——Feelings， failure and finding happiness.
As B. B. King put it， “The beautiful thing about learning is that nobody can take that away from you.” And learning is really in the broadest sense what I want to talk about today， because your education， of course， isn’t ending here. In many ways， it’s only just begun.The world has so many lessons to teach you. I consider the world， this Earth， to be like a school and our life the classrooms. And sometimes here in this Planet Earth school the lessons often come dressed up as detours or roadblocks. And sometimes as full-blown crises. And the secret I’ve learned to getting ahead is being open to the lessons， lessons from the grandest university of all， that is， the universe itself.
正如B. B. King所说：“关于学习的美好在于别人不会把知识从你身上拿走”。学习正是我今天想说的，因为你们的教育并没有在这里结束。在很多情况下，这才是刚刚开使。这个世界将会教会你们很多。我认为这个世界，这个地球，就像一个学校和我们人生的教室。有时这些课程会是弯路和障碍。有时会充满危机。我所学的应付这一切的秘密就是去勇于面对，正如我们面对大学课程一样。
Now I want to talk a little bit about failings， because nobody’s journey is seamless or smooth. We all stumble. We all have setbacks. If things go wrong， you hit a dead end—as you will—it’s just life’s way of saying time to change course. So， ask every failure—this is what I do with every failure， every crisis， every difficult time—I say， what is this here to teach me？ And as soon as you get the lesson， you get to move on. If you really get the lesson， you pass and you don’t have to repeat the class. If you don’t get the lesson， it shows up wearing another pair of pants—or skirt—to give you some remedial work.
现在我想谈谈失败。没有人他的一生是一帆风顺的。我们都会遇到困难，受到挫折。如果事情出错了，你进入了死胡同，这正是生活在告诉你是时候改变了。所以，每当遇到困难和危机时，我都会问它教会了我什么？只要你吸取了教训，你就会继续前进。如果你真正吸取了教训，你就会顺利通过考验，不用再取经受失败了。如果你没有吸取教训，它会以另外一种形式给出现在你面前并给你一些补救。
5、Ellen DeGeneres在纽奥良大学的毕业典礼——You’re going to be OK
So In conclusion， when I was younger I thought success was something different. I thought when I grow up， I want to be famous. I want to be a star. I want to be in movies. When I grow up I want to see the world， drive nice cars， I want to have groupies. To quote the Pussycat Dolls. How many people thought it was “boobies”， by the way？ It’s not， it’s “groupies”。 But my idea of success is different today. And as you grow， you’ll realise the definition of success changes. For many of you， today， success is being able to hold down 20 shots of tequila. For
me， the most important thing in your life is to live your life with integrity， and not to give into peer pressure. to try to be something that you’re not. To live your life as an honest and compassionate person. to contribute in some way.
因此，这是不是结论的结论，当我年轻时，对成功的定义不同，我想我的志愿是：我想出名，想当明星，拍电影，我想要去看世界，开名车，有一群死党?? 但今日我对成功的定义变了，当你长大，你就会发现这点。对你们中的很多人来说，成功的定义是能灌下20杯龙舌兰酒（大家笑）。 对我来说，生命中最重要的事是：活得诚实！别逼自己去做不是真正的你，要活得正直，有怜悯之心，在某些方面有所贡献。
So to conclude my conclusion： follow your passion， stay true to yourself. Never follow anyone else’s path， unless you’re in the woods and you’re lost and you see a path， and by all means you should follow that. Don’t give advice， it will come back and bite you in the ass. Don’t take anyone’s advice. So my advice to you is to be true to yourself and everything will be fine.
因此，这是结论的结论（众人笑）：追随热情，忠于自我，绝不要追随别人的脚步，除非你在森林里迷路了才要这么做。别给人忠告，别接受任何人的忠告。所以?我要给大家的忠告是（大家大笑）：做真实的你，一切都会没事的。
You know, often our most fearsomecompetitor is ourselves. We struggle with all of the internal doubts and anxieties, fears for the future concerns for the world. Sometimes when I look at what's happening in the world, it's hard to imagine going out and doing anything of meaning. But we can do it and not only that, we must. America needs you to grab hold of this moment. To dare to compete to do the best you can and to help make our country the best it can be and I promise I'll do what I can as a senator representing this extraordinary wonderful state, to help you in every way possible. So today, after you've accepted your diploma, but before you leave this place, please thank your family for guiding you to this moment. Thank your professors for showing you a new world. Thank your friends for exploring that world and finally remember what this day feels like. Cherish it always. Go for it. God speed the world awaits you. Thank you all very much.
你们都知道很多时候我们最可怕的敌人就是我们自己，我们跟内心的各种对世界未来的怀疑、忧虑和恐惧作斗争。有时，看着世界上正在发生的一切，我难以想象自己走出去并做些有意义的事。但事实是，我们能够这样做，而且我们必须这样做。美国需要大家抓紧这一时刻，勇于竞争并尽你们所能，让我们的国家变得尽可能美好。而我，作为美丽非凡的纽约州的议员，承诺我会尽我所能来帮助你们。今天，在领完你们的毕业证书离开校园之前，请你们感谢你们的家人，感谢他们的指导使你能到达今天这个激动人心的时刻。感谢你们的教授把一个全新的世界展现给你们。感谢你的朋友们，一起探索这个世界。最后，请记住今天这份美好的感觉。永远珍惜它，不断地追求。世界等待这你们，愿上帝助你们成功。
感谢大家。
篇二：外国名人的演讲稿
外国名人的演讲稿
asking the devotees of civil rights, "when will you be
satisfied?" we can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities. we cannot be satisfied as long as the negro's basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one. we can never be satisfied as long as a negro in mississippi
cannot vote and a negro in new york believes he has nothing for which to vote. no, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousnelike a mighty stream.
出气就会心满意足的人将大失所望。在黑人得到公民权之前，美国既不会安宁，也不会平静。反抗的旋风将继续震撼我们国家的基石，直至光辉灿烂的正义之日来临。
but there is something that i must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. in the proceof gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterneand hatred.
但是，对于站在通向正义之宫艰险门槛上的人们，有一些话我必须要说。在我们争取合法地位的过程中，切不要错误行事导致犯罪。我们切不要吞饮仇恨辛酸的苦酒，来解除对于自由的饮渴。
we must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. we must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.
我们应该永远得体地、纪律严明地进行斗争。我们不能容许我们富有创造性的抗-议沦为暴-力行动。我们应该不断升华到用灵魂力量对付肉体力量的崇高境界。
the marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the negro
community must not lead us to distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.
席卷黑人社会的新的奇迹般的战斗精神，不应导致我们对所有白人的不信任——因为许多白人兄弟已经认识到：他们的命运同我们的命运紧密相连，他们的自由同我们的自由休戚相关。他们今天来到这里参加集会就是明证。
we cannot walk alone.and as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march ahead. we cannot turn back. there are those who are

三、美国总统奥巴马在上海与中国青年对话
We know that more is to be gained when great powers cooperate than when they collide. That is a lesson that human beings have learned time and again, and that is the example of the history between our nations. And I believe strongly that cooperation must go beyond our government. It must be rooted in our people -- in the studies we share, the business that we do, the knowledge that we gain, and even in the sports t
That's why I'm pleased to announce that the United States will dramatically expand the number of our students who study in China to 100,000. And these exchanges mark a clear commitment to build ties among our people, as surely as you will help determine the destiny of the 21st century. And I'm absolutely confident that America has no better ambassadors to offer than our young people. For they, just like you, are filled with talent and energy and optimism about the history that is yet to be written.
So let this be the next step in the steady pursuit of cooperation that will serve our nations, and the world. And if there's one thing that we can take from today's dialogue, I hope that it is a commitment to continue this dialogue going forward.在大的国家合作的时候，就比互相碰撞会取得更多的好处，这就是人类在历史上不断吸取的教训。我认为我们合作应该是超越政府间的合作，应该是以人民为基础，我们所研究的
内容，我们所从事的生意，我们所获得的知识，我们所进行的体育比赛……所有这些桥梁必须是年轻人共同合作建立起来，这就是我为什么非常高兴我们要大大的宣布我们到中国学习的留学生人数，要增加到10万人。这样交流就会表现出我们是愿意致力于加强两国人民的联系，而且我是绝对有信心。对美国来说，最好的大使、最好的使者就是年轻人，他们和你们一样，很有才能，充满活力，对未来的历史还是很乐观的，这是我们合作的下一步，惠及两国和全世界。
