最出色的畢業(yè)典禮演講摘錄
1. 喬布斯在斯坦福的畢業(yè)典禮演講 —— 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.
當我十七歲的時候,我讀到了一句話:“如果你把每一天都當作生命中最后一天去生活的話,那么有一天你會發(fā)現(xiàn)你是正確的。”這句話給我留下了深刻的印象。從那時開始,過了33 年,我在每天早晨都會對著鏡子問自己:“如果今天是我生命中的最后一天,你會不會完成你今天想做的事情呢?”當答案連續(xù)很多次被給予“不是”的時候,我知道自己需要改變某些事情了。
2. 杰夫·貝佐斯在普林斯頓畢業(yè)典禮的演講 —— 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.
我認為我不會為失敗地嘗試而遺憾,但是有所決定但完全不去付諸行動則可能會一直煎熬著我。

3. JK·羅琳在哈佛大學畢業(yè)典禮上的演講 —— 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.
如果能回到過去,她會告訴21歲的自己:一個人的幸福在于他懂得——生活不等于你的收獲和成就。你的簡歷,你的證書并不代表你的生活,盡管很多人會混淆著兩者。生活是如此的復(fù)雜,任何人都無法掌控它。明白了這一點,你就能夠?qū)櫲璨惑@。
4. 奧普拉在2008年斯坦福畢業(yè)典禮的演講 —— 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所說:“關(guān)于學習的美好在于別人不會把知識從你身上拿走”。學習正是我今天想說的,因為你們的教育并沒有在這里結(jié)束。在很多情況下,這才是剛剛開使。這個世界將會教會你們很多。我認為這個世界,這個地球,就像一個學校和我們?nèi)松慕淌?。有時這些課程會是彎路和障礙。有時會充滿危機。我所學的應(yīng)付這一切的秘密就是去勇于面對,正如我們面對大學課程一樣。
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.
現(xiàn)在我想談?wù)勈?。沒有人他的一生是一帆風順的。我們都會遇到困難,受到挫折。如果事情出錯了,你進入了死胡同,這正是生活在告訴你是時候改變了。所以,每當遇到困難和危機時,我都會問它教會了我什么?只要你吸取了教訓,你就會繼續(xù)前進。如果你真正吸取了教訓,你就會順利通過考驗,不用再取經(jīng)受失敗了。如果你沒有吸取教訓,它會以另外一種形式給出現(xiàn)在你面前并給你一些補救。
