布什演讲稿(中英对照)演讲范文Thank ou!Chief Justie Rehnquist, President Carter, President Bush, President Clinton, distinguished guests and m fello itizens, the peaeful transfer of authorit is rare in histor, et mon in our ountr. With a simple oath, e affirm old traditions and make ne beginnings.As I begin, I thank President Clinton for his servie to our nation.And I thank Vie President Gore for a ontest onduted ith spirit and ended ith grae.I am honored and humbled to stand here, here so man of Ameria's leaders have e before me, and so man ill follo.We have a plae, all of us, in a long stor -- a stor e ontinue, but hose end e ill not see. It is the stor of a ne orld that beame a friend and liberator of the old, a stor of a slave-holding soiet that beame a servant of freedom, the stor of a poer that ent into the orld to protet but not possess, to defend but not to onquer.It is the Amerian stor -- a stor of flaed and fallible people, united aross the generations b grand and enduring ideals.The grandest of these ideals is an unfolding Amerian promise that everone belongs, that everone deserves a hane, that no insignifiant person as ever born.Amerians are alled to enat this promise in our lives and in our las. And though our nation has sometimes halted, and sometimes delaed, e must follo no other ourse.Through muh of the last entur, Ameria's faith in freedom and demora as a rok in a raging sea. No it is a seed upon the ind, taking root in man nations.Our demorati faith is more than the reed of our ountr, it is the inborn hope of our humanit, an ideal e arr but do not on, a trust e bear and pass along. And even after nearl 225 ears, e have a long a et to travel.While man of our itizens prosper, others doubt the promise, even the justie, of our on ountr. The ambitions of some Amerians are limited b failing shools and hiddenprejudie and the irumstanes of their birth. And sometimes our differenes run so deep, it seems e share a ontinent, but not a ountr.We do not aept this, and e ill not allo it. Our unit, our union, is the serious ork of leaders and itizens in ever generation. And this is m solemnpledge: I ill ork to build a single nation of justie and opportunit.I kno this is in our reah beause e are guided b a poer larger than our selves ho reates us equal in His image.And e are onfident in priniples that unite and lead us onard.Ameria has never been united b blood or birth or soil. We are bound b ideals that move us beond our bakgrounds, lift us above our interests and teah us hat it means to be itizens. Ever hild must be taught these priniples. Ever itizen must uphold them. And ever immigrant, b embraing these ideals, makes our ountr more, not less, Amerian.Toda, e affirm a ne mitment to live out our nation's promise through ivilit, ourage, passion and harater.Ameria, at its best, mathes a mitment to priniple ith a onern for ivilit. A ivil soiet demands from eah of us goodill and respet, fair dealing and forgiveness.Some seem to believe that our politis an afford to bepett beause, in a time of peae, the stakes of our debates appear small.But the stakes for Ameria are never small. If our ountr does not lead the ause of freedom, it ill not be led. If e do not turn the hearts of hildren toard knoledge and harater, e ill lose their gifts and undermine their idealism. If e permit our eonom to drift and deline, the vulnerable ill suffer most.We must live up to the alling e share. Civilit is not a tati or a sentiment. It is the determined hoie of trust over niism, of munit over haos. And this mitment, if e keep it, is a a to shared aplishment.Ameria, at its best, is also ourageous.Our national ourage has been lear in times of depression and ar, hen defending mon dangers defined our mon good. No e must hoose if the example of our fathers and mothers ill inspire us or ondemn us. We must sho ourage in a time of blessing b onfronting problems instead of passing them on to future generations.Together, e ill relaim Ameria's shools, before ignorane and apath laim more oung lives.We ill reform Soial Seurit and Mediare, sparing our hildren from struggles e have the poer to prevent. And e ill redue taxes, to reover the momentum of our eonom and reard the effort and enterprise of orking Amerians.We ill build our defenses beond hallenge, lest eakness invite hallenge.We ill onfront eapons of mass destrution, so that a ne entur is spared ne horrors.The enemies of libert and our ountr should make no mistake: Ameria remains engaged in the orld b histor and b hoie, shaping a balane of poer thatf avors freedom. We illdefend our allies and our interests. We ill sho purposeithout arrogane. We ill meet aggression and bad faith ith resolve and strength. And to all nations, e ill speak for the values that gave our nation birth.Ameria, at its best, is passionate. In the quiet of Amerian onsiene, e kno that deep, persistent povert is unorth of our nation's promise.And hatever our vies of its ause, e an agree that hildren at risk are not at fault. Abandonment and abuse are not atsof God, the are failures of love.And the proliferation of prisons, hoever neessar, is no substitute for hope and order in our souls.Where there is suffering, there is dut. Amerians in need are not strangers, the are itizens, not problems, but priorities. And all of us are diminished hen an are hopeless.Government has great responsibilities for publi safet and publi health, for ivil rights and mon shools. Yet passion is the ork of a nation, not just a government.And some needs and hurts are so deep the ill onl respond to a mentor's touh or a pastor's praer. Churh and harit, snagogue and mosque lend our munities their humanit, and theill have an honored plae in our plans and in our las.Man in our ountr do not kno the pain of povert, but e an listen to those ho do.And I an pledge our nation to a goal: When e see that ounded traveler on the road to Jeriho, e ill not pass to the other side.Ameria, at its best, is a plae here personalresponsibilit is valued andexpeted.Enouraging responsibilit is not a searh for sapegoats, it is a all to onsiene. And though it requires sarifie, itbrings a deeper fulfillment. We find the fullness of life not onl in options, but in mitments. And e find that hildren and munit are the mitments that set us free.Our publi interest depends on private harater, on ivi dut and famil bonds and basi fairness, on unounted, unhonored ats of deen hih give diretion to our freedom.Sometimes in life e are alled to do great things. But asa saint of our times has said, ever da e are alled to dosmall things ith great love. The most important tasks of a demora are done b everone.I ill live and lead b these priniples: to advane m onvitions ith ivilit, to pursue the publi interest ith ourage, to speak for greater justie and passion, to all for responsibilit and tr to live it as ell.In all these as, I ill bring the values of our histor to the are of ourtimes.What ou do is as important as anthing government does. I ask ou to seek a mon good beond our fort; to defend needed reforms against eas attaks; to serve our nation, beginningith our neighbor. I ask ou to be itizens: itizens, not spetators; itizens, not subjets; responsible itizens,building munities of servie and a nation of harater.Amerians are generous and strong and deent, not beause e believe in ourselves, but beause e hold beliefs beond ourselves. When this spirit of itizenship is missing, no government program an replae it. When this spirit is present, no rong an stand against it.After the Delaration of Independene as signed, Virginia statesman John Page rote to Thomas Jefferson: "We kno the rae is not to the sift nor the battle to the strong. Do ou not think an angel rides in the hirlind and direts this storm?"Muh time has passed sine Jefferson arrived for his inauguration. The earsand hanges aumulate. But the themes of this da he ould kno: our nation's grand stor of ourage andits simple dream of dignit.We are not this stor's author, ho fills time and eternit ith his purpose. Yet his purpose is ahieved in our dut, and our dut is fulfilled in servie to one another.Never tiring, never ielding, never finishing, e rene that purpose toda, to make our ountr more just and generous, to affirm the dignit of our lives and ever life.This ork ontinues. This stor goes on. And an angel still rides in the hirlind and direts this storm.God bless ou all, and God bless Ameria.谢谢大家!尊敬的芮恩奎斯特大法官,卡特总统,布什总统,克林顿总统,尊敬的来宾们,我的同胞们,这次权利的和平过渡在历史上是罕见的,但在美国是平常的。

布什告别演说中英文对照

Bush's presidency began with the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil and ends with the worst economic collapse in three generations.
他说,“对于辛勤工作的千万家庭来说,这些都是非常艰难的日子,但是如果我们不采取行动,后果会不堪设想。”
布什看上去志得意满——不时地咧着嘴笑——他总结了任内工作,准备卸下椭圆形办公室的工作重担。
Bush appeared content — grinning at times — as he summed up his presidency and prepared to be relieved from the burdens of the Oval Office.
布什说,底线就是,在他任内,“既有好日子,也有艰难的日子”。
The bottom line, Bush said, is there have been "good days and tough days" during his term.
布什讲完离开了讲台,自信开始让位于怀旧。
பைடு நூலகம்
"These are very tough times for hardworking families, but the toll would be far worse if we had not acted," he said.
“所有美国人都参与进来了。团结起来,用决心,用辛勤的工作,我们定能让经济走上复兴之路。”
布什将带着自理查德-尼克松总统之后最低的民意支持率卸任。他说,“也许,你不赞成我做的那些艰难的决定,但我希望你能认为我愿意做出那些艰难的决定。”

布什总统清华大学演讲全文(中英对照).

President Bush Speaks at Tsinghua UniversityTsinghua UniversityBeijing, People's Republic of China10:35 A.M. (LocalPRESIDENT BUSH: Vice President Hu, thank you very much for your kind and generous remarks. Thank you for welcoming me and my wife, Laura, here. (Applause. I see she's keeping pretty good company, with the Secretary of State, Colin Powell. It's good to see you, Mr. Secretary. (Applause. And I see my National Security Advisor, Ms. Condoleezza Rice, who at one time was the provost at Stanford University. So she's comfortable on university campuses such as this. Thank you for being here, Condi. (Applause.I'm so grateful for the hospitality, and honored for the reception at one of China's, and the world's, great universities.This university was founded, interestingly enough, with thesupport of my country, to further ties between our two nations. I know how important this place is to your Vice President. He not only received his degree here, but more importantly, he met his gracious wife here. (Laughter. I want to thank the students for giving me the chance to meet with you, the chance to talk a little bit about my country and answer some of your questions. The standards and reputation of this university are known around the world, and I know what an achievement it is to be here. So, congratulations. (Applause. I don't know if you know this or not, but my wife and I have two daughters who are in college, just like you. One goes to the University of Texas. One goes to Yale. They're twins. And we are proud of our daughters, just like I'm sure your parents are proud of you. My visit to China comes on an important anniversary, as the Vice President mentioned. Thirty years ago this week, an American President arrived inChina on a trip designed to end decades of estrangement and confront centuries of suspicion. President Richard Nixon showed the world that two vastly different governments could meet on thegrounds of common interest, in the spirit of mutual respect. As they left the airport that day, Premier Zhou Enlai said this to President Nixon: "Your handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world -- 25 years of no communication."During the 30 years since, America and China have exchanged many handshakes of friendship and commerce. And as we have had more contact with each other, the citizens of both countries have gradually learned more about each other. And that's important. Once America knew China only by its history as a great and enduring civilization. Today, we see a China that is still defined by noble traditions of family, scholarship, and honor. And we see a China that is becoming one of the most dynamic and creative societies in the world -- as demonstrated by the knowledge and potential right here in this room. China is on a rising path, and America welcomes the emergence of a strong and peaceful and prosperous China. (Applause.As America learns more about China, I am concerned thatthe Chinese people do not always see a clear picture of my country. This happens for many reasons, and some of them of our own making. Our movies and television shows often do not portray the values of the real America I know. Our successful businesses show a strength of American commerce, but our spirit, community spirit, and contributions to each other are not always visible as monetary success.Some of the erroneous pictures of America are painted by others. My friend, the Ambassador to China, tells me some Chinese textbooks talk of Americans of "bullying the weak and repressing the poor." Another Chinese textbook, published just last year, teaches that special agents of the FBI are used to "repress the working people." Now,neither of these is true -- and while the words may be leftovers from a previous era, they are misleading and they're harmful.In fact, Americans feel a special responsibility for the weak and the poor. Our government spends billions of dollars to provide health care and food and housing for those whocannot help themselves -- and even more important, many of our citizens contribute their own money and time to help those in need. American compassion also stretches way beyond our borders. We're the number one provider of humanitarian aid to people in need throughout the world. And as for the men and women of the FBI and law enforcement, they're working people; they, themselves, are working people who devote their lives to fighting crime and corruption.My country certainly has its share of problems, no question about that. And we have our faults. Like most nations we're on a long journey toward achieving our own ideals of equality and justice. Yet there's a reason our nation shines as a beacon of hope and opportunity, a reason many throughout the world dream of coming to America. It's because we're a free nation, where men and women have the to achieve their dreams. No matter your background or your circumstance of birth, in America you can get a good education, you can start your own business, you can raise a family, you can worship freely, and helpelect the leaders of your community and your country. You can support the policies of our government, or you're free to openly disagree with them. Those who fear freedom sometimes argue it could lead to chaos, but it does not, because freedom means more than every man for himself. Liberty gives our citizens many rights, yet expects them to exercise important responsibilities. Our liberty is given direction and purpose by moral character, shaped in strong families, strong communities, and strong religious institutions, and overseen by a strong and fair legal system. My country's greatest symbol to the worldis the Statue of Liberty, and it was designed by special care. I don't know if you've ever seen the Statue of Liberty, but if you look closely, she's holding not one object, but two. In one hand is the familiar torch we call the "light of liberty." And in the other hand is a book of law.We're a nation of laws. Our courts are honest and they are independent. The President -- me -- I can't tell the courts how to rule, and neither can any other member of the executive or legislative branch of government. Under ourlaw, everyone stands equal. No one is above the law, and no one is beneath it.All political power in America is limited and it is temporary, and only given by the free vote of the people. We have a Constitution, now two centuries old, which limits and balances the power of the three branches of our government, the judicial branch, the legislative branch, and the executive branch, of which I'm a part.Many of the values that guide our life in America are first shaped in our families, just as they are in your country. American moms and dads love their children and work hard and sacrifice for them, because we believe life can always be better for the next generation. In our families, we find love and learn responsibility and character.And many Americans voluntarily devote part of their lives to serving other people. An amazing number -- nearly half of all adults in America -- volunteer time every weekto make their communities better by mentoring children, or by visiting the sick, or caring for the elderly, or helping with thousands of other needs and causes.This is one of the great strengths of my country. People take for helping others, without being told, motivated by their good hearts and often by their faith. America is a nation guided by faith. Someone once called us "a nation with the soul of a church." This may interest you -- 95 percent of Americans say they believe in God, and I'm one of them.When I met President Jiang Zemin in Shanghai a few months ago, I had the honor of sharing with him how faith changed my life and how faith contributes to the life of my country. Faith points to a moral law beyond man's law, and calls us to duties higher than material gain. Freedom of religion is not something to be feared, it's to be welcomed, because faith gives us a moral core and teaches us to hold ourselves to high standards, to love and to serve others, and to live responsible lives.If you travel across America -- and I hope you do some day if you haven't been there -- you will find people of many different ethic backgrounds and many different faiths. We're a varied nation. We're home to 2.3 million Americansof Chinese ancestry, who can be found working in the offices of our corporations, or in the Cabinet of the President of the United States, or skating for the America Olympic team. Every immigrant, by taking an oath of allegiance to our country, becomes just as just as American as the President. America shows that a society can be vast and it can be varied, yet still one country, commanding the allegiance and love of its people.And all these qualities of America were widely on display on a single day, September the 11th, the day when terrorists, murderers, attacked my nation. American policemen and firefighters, by the hundreds, ran into burning towers in desperation to save their fellow citizens. V olunteers came from everywhere to help with rescue efforts. Americans donated blood and gave money to help the families of victims. America had prayer services all over our country, and people raised flags to show their pride and unity. And you need to know, none of this was ordered by the government; it happened spontaneously, by the initiative of free people.Life in America shows that liberty, paired with law is not to be feared. In a free society, diversity is not disorder. Debate is not strife. And dissent is not revolution. A free society trusts its citizens to seek greatness in themselves and their country.It was my honor to visit China in 1975 -- some of you weren't even born then. It shows how old I am. (Laughter. And a lot has changed in your country since then. China has made amazing progress -- in openness and enterprise and economic freedom. And this progress previews China'a great potential.China has joined the World Trade Organization, and as youto China's legal system. A modern China will have a consistent rule of law to govern commerce and secure the rights of its people. The new China your generation is building will need the profound wisdom of your traditions. The lure of materialism challenges our society -- challenges society in our country, and in many successful countries. Your ancient ethic of personal and family responsibilitywill serve you well.Behind China's economic success today are talented, brilliant and energetic people. In the near future, those same men and women will play a full and active role in your government. This university is not simply turning out specialists, it is preparing citizens. And citizens are not spectators in the affairs of their country. They are participants in its future.Change is coming. China is already having secret ballot and competitive elections at the local level. Nearly 20 years ago, a great Chinese leader, Deng Xiaoping, said this -- I want you to hear his words. He said that China would eventually expand democratic elections all the way to the national level. I look forward to that day.Tens of millions of Chinese today are relearning Buddhist, Taoist, and local religious traditions, or practicing Christianity, Islam, and other faiths. Regardless of where or how these believers worship, they're no threat to public order; in fact, they make good citizens. For centuries, this country has had a tradition of religious tolerance. Myprayer is that all persecution will end, so that all in China are free to gather and worship as they wish.All these changes will lead to a stronger, more confident China -- a China that can astonish and enrich the world, a China that your generation will help create. This is one of the most exciting times in the history of your country, a time when even the grandest hopes seem within your reach. My nation offers you our respect and our friendship. Six years from now, athletes from America and around the world will come to your country for the Olympic games. And I'm confident they will find a China that is becoming a da guo, a leading nation, at peace with its people and at peace with the world.Thank you for letting me come. (Applause.布什 :胡副主席, 非常感谢您的欢迎致辞, 非常感谢您在这里接待我和我的夫人劳拉。

布什清华演讲 中英对照

布什清华演讲 中英对照

美国总统布什在北京清华大学与学生对话的中英全文清华学生用英文提问:昨天您和江主席进行了谈话,并且开了联合发布会,您在这个会上没有清楚地回答一个问题,那就是战区导弹防御系统是否会包含台湾在内?另外,我还想问,谈到台湾问题的时候,您说和平解决,您对和平统一是怎样的看法?布什:非常好的问题,首先,我很赞赏你的英文,非常好!讲到台湾问题,很重要的一点就是美国的政府在讲到如何和平解决台湾问题的时候,总是说到和平、对话,我们强调和平这个字,我们指的是双方都要以和平的方式来解决,任何一方都不可以进行任何挑衅的行为。

我跟中国的领导人有过多次的谈话,每一次我们都强调我是支持“一个中国”的政策,而且这是长期一贯的政策,到目前为止没有改变。

至于有关导弹防御系统,我已经说得非常清楚,这是一个防御性的系统,是要帮助我们的盟友和其他一些国家来保护他们免受无赖国家的攻击,这些国家是希望发展大规模杀伤性武器的,我想制定这一点,对和平是非常有重要的,我昨天也非常清楚地说明这是事实。

我们目前正在发展导弹防御系统的过程中,目前还不知道可行不可行,但是我觉得对全世界的和平会带来贡献。

还有一点,我觉得对中国人来说,对美国人来说这一点必须要知道,美国政府希望能够以和平的方式解决发生在全世界的许多问题,那因为美国现在处理的问题非常多,好象中东的问题,你们从新闻上看到以后知道了,这是一个非常危险的时代,我们正在努力地致力于和平,我们希望克什米尔的问题也能够和平解决,这对中国也非常重要的。

我来中国以前,我到了韩国,我也明确表示,我希望以和平的方式解决朝鲜半岛的问题。

清华大学传播系学生:很遗憾,您刚才还是没有明确的回答,您总是说和平解决,而没有说和平统一。

三天前您在日本访问时,在议会发表演讲说,美国将牢记对台湾的承诺,我想问总统先生这样一个问题,美国是否还牢记他对十三亿中国人民的承诺呢?那就是遵守《中美三个联合公报》和“三不”政策。

布什:感谢您,我想台湾问题是全世界都关心的问题。

布什选举获胜演讲

布什选举获胜演讲

布什选举获胜演讲第一篇:布什选举获胜演讲Thank you all.Thank you very much.Thank you.Thank you very much.Good evening, my fellow Americans.I appreciate so very much the opportunity to speak with you tonight.Mr.Speaker, Lieutenant Governor, friends, distinguished guests, our country has been through a long and trying period, with the outcome of the presidential election not finalized for longer than any of us could ever imagine.Vice President Gore and I put our hearts and hopes into our campaigns.We both gave it our all.We shared similar emotions, so I understand how difficult this moment must be for Vice President Gore and his family.He has a distinguished record of service to our country as a congressman, a senator and a vice president.This evening I received a gracious call from the vice president.We agreed to meet early next week in Washington, and we agreed to do our best to heal our country after this hard-fought contest.T onight I want to thank all the thousands of volunteers and campaign workers who worked so hard on my behalf.I also salute the vice president and his supports for waging a spirited campaign.And I thank him for a call that I know was difficult to ura and I wish the vice president and Senator Lieberman and their families the very best.I have a lot to be thankful for tonight.I'm thankful for America and thankful that we were able to resolve our electoral differences in a peaceful way.I'm thankful to the American people for the great privilege of being able to serve as your next president.I want to thank my wife and our daughters for their ura's active involvement as first lady has made Texas a better place, and she will be a wonderful first lady of America.I am proud to have Dick Cheneyby my side, and America will be proud to have him as our next vice president.T onight I chose to speak from the chamber of the Texas House of Representatives because it has been a home to bipartisan cooperation.Here in a place where Democrats have the majority, Republicans and Democrats have worked together to do what is right for the people we represent.We've had spirited disagreements.And in the end, we found constructive consensus.It is an experience I will always carry with me, an example I will always follow.I want to thank my friend, House Speaker Pete Laney, a Democrat, who introduced me today.I want to thank the legislators from both political parties with whom I've worked.Across the hall in our Texas capitol is the state Senate.And I cannot help but think of our mutual friend, the former Democrat lieutenant governor, Bob Bullock.His love for Texas and his ability to work in a bipartisan way continue to be a model for all of us.The spirit of cooperation I have seen in this hall is what is needed in Washington, D.C.It is the challenge of our moment.After a difficult election, we must put politics behind us and work together to make the promise of America available for every one of our citizens.I am optimistic that we can change the tone in Washington, D.C.I believe things happen for a reason, and I hope the long wait of the last five weeks will heighten a desire to move beyond the bitterness and partisanship of the recent past.Our nation must rise above a house divided.Americans share hopes and goals and values far more important than any political disagreements.Republicans want the best for our nation, and so do Democrats.Our votes may differ, but not our hopes.I know America wants reconciliation and unity.I know Americans want progress.And we must seize this moment and deliver.Together, guided by a spirit of common sense, common courtesy andcommon goals, we can unite and inspire the American citizens.T ogether, we will work to make all our public schools excellent, teaching every student of every background and every accent, so that no child is left behind.Together we will save Social Security and renew its promise of a secure retirement for generations to come.Together we will strengthen Medicare and offer prescription drug coverage to all of our seniors.Together we will give Americans the broad, fair and fiscally responsible tax relief they deserve.Together we'll have a bipartisan foreign policy true to our values and true to our friends, and we will have a military equal to every challenge and superior to every adversary.Together we will address some of society's deepest problems one person at a time, by encouraging and empowering the good hearts and good works of the American people.This is the essence of compassionate conservatism and it will be a foundation of my administration.These priorities are not merely Republican concerns or Democratic concerns;they are American responsibilities.During the fall campaign, we differed about the details of these proposals, but there was remarkable consensus about the important issues before us: excellent schools, retirement and health security, tax relief, a strong military, a more civil society.We have discussed our differences.Now it is time to find common ground and build consensus to make America a beacon of opportunity in the 21st century.I'm optimistic this can happen.Our future demands it and our history proves it.Two hundred years ago, in the election of 1800, America faced another close presidential election.A tie in the Electoral College put the outcome into the hands of Congress.After six days of voting and 36 ballots, the House of Representatives elected Thomas Jefferson the third president of the United States.Thatelection brought the first transfer of power from one party to another in our new democracy.Shortly after the election, Jefferson, in a letter titled “Reconciliation and Reform,” wrote this.“The steady character of our countrymen is a rock to which we may safely moor;unequivocal in principle, reasonable in manner.We should be able to hope to do a great deal of good to the cause of freedom and harmony.” Two hundred years have only strengthened the steady character of America.And so as we begin the work of healing our nation, tonight I call upon that character: respect for each other, respect for our differences, generosity of spirit, and a willingness to work hard and work together to solve any problem.I have something else to ask you, to ask every American.I ask for you to pray for this great nation.I ask for your prayers for leaders from both parties.I thank you for your prayers for me and my family, and I ask you to pray for Vice President Gore and his family.I have faith that with God's help we as a nation will move forward together as one nation, indivisible.And together we will create and America that is open, so every citizen has access to the American dream;an America that is educated, so every child has the keys to realize that dream;and an America that is united in our diversity and our shared American values that are larger than race or party.I was not elected to serve one party, but to serve one nation.The president of the United States is the president of every single American, of every race and every background.Whether you voted for me or not, I will do my best to serve your interests and I will work to earn your respect.I will be guided by President Jefferson's sense of purpose, to stand for principle, to be reasonable in manner, and above all, to do great good for the cause of freedom and harmony.The presidency is more than anhonor.It is more than an office.It is a charge to keep, and I will give it my all.Thank you very much and God bless America.Good evening.第二篇:布什在华盛顿的竞选获胜演讲布什在华盛顿的竞选获胜演讲(中英对照)此次选民的投票率创下了历史新高,带来了历史性的胜利。

芮恩奎斯特:上帝保佑我。

布什:上帝保佑我。

芮恩奎斯特:恭喜!谢谢大家!尊敬的芮恩奎斯特大法官,卡特总统,布什总统,克林顿总统,尊敬的来宾们,我的同胞们,这次权利的和平过渡在历史上是罕见的,但在美国是平常的。

我们以朴素的宣誓庄严地维护了古老的传统,同时开始了新的历程。

首先,我要感谢克林顿总统为这个国家作出的贡献,也感谢副总统戈尔在竞选过程中的热情与风度。

站在这里,我很荣幸,也有点受宠若惊。

在我之前,许多美国领导人从这里起步;在我之后,也会有许多领导人从这里继续前进。

在美国悠久的历史中,我们每个人都有自己的位置;我们还在继续推动着历史前进,但是我们不可能看到它的尽头。

这是一部新世界的发展史,是一部后浪推前浪的历史。

这是一部美国由奴隶制社会发展成为崇尚自由的社会的历史。

这是一个强国保护而不是占有世界的历史,是捍卫而不是征服世界的历史。

这就是美国史。

它不是一部十全十美的民族发展史,但它是一部在伟大和永恒理想指导下几代人团结奋斗的历史。

这些理想中最伟大的是正在慢慢实现的美国的承诺,这就是:每个人都有自身的价值,每个人都有成功的机会,每个人天生都会有所作为的。

美国人民肩负着一种使命,那就是要竭力将这个诺言变成生活中和法律上的现实。

虽然我们的国家过去在追求实现这个承诺的途中停滞不前甚至倒退,但我们仍将坚定不移地完成这一使命。

在上个世纪的大部分时间里,美国自由民主的信念犹如汹涌大海中的岩石。

现在它更像风中的种子,把自由带给每个民族。

在我们的国家,民主不仅仅是一种信念,而是全人类的希望。

民主,我们不会独占,而会竭力让大家分享。

民主,我们将铭记于心并且不断传播。

225年过去了,我们仍有很长的路要走。

有很多公民取得了成功,但也有人开始怀疑,怀疑我们自己的国家所许下的诺言,甚至怀疑它的公正。

失败的教育,潜在的偏见和出身的环境限制了一些美国人的雄心。

布什演讲稿(中英对照)演讲范文

布什演讲稿(中英对照)演讲范文ed and humbled to stand here, where so many of america's leaders have come before me, and so many will follow.we have a place, all of us, in a long story -- astory we continue, but whose end we will not see. it is the story of a new world that became a friend and liberator ofthe old, a story of a slave-holding society that became a servant of freedom, the story of a power that went into the world to protect but not possess, to defend but not to er.it is the american story -- a story of flawed and fallible people, united across the generations by grand and enduring ideals.the grandest of these ideals is an unfolding american promise that everyone belongs, that everyone deserves a chance, that no insignificant person was ever born.americans are called to enact this promise in ourlives and in our laws. and though our nation has sometimes halted, and sometimes delayed, we must follow no other course.through much of the last century, america's faith in freedom and democracy was a rock in a raging sea. now it is a seed upon the wind, taking root in many nations.our democratic faith is more than the creed of our country, it is the inborn hope of our humanity, an ideal we carry but do not own, a trust we bear and pass along. andeven after nearly 225 years, we have a long way yet to travel.while many of our citizens prosper, others doubt the promise, even the justice, of our own country. the ambitions of some americans are limited by failing schools and hidden prejudice and the circumstances of their birth. and sometimes our differences run so deep, it seems we share a continent, but not a country.we do not accept this, and we will not allow it. our unity, our union, is the serious work of leaders and citizens in every generation. and this is my solemnpledge: i will work to build a single nation of justice and opportunity.i know this is in our reach because we are guided by a power larger than our selves who creates us equal in his image.and we are confident in principles that unite and lead us onward.america has never been united by blood or birth or soil. we are bound by ideals that move us beyond our backgrounds, lift us above our interests and teach us what it means to be citizens. every child must be taught these principles. every citizen must uphold them. and every immigrant, by embracing these ideals, makes our country more, not less, american.today, we affirm a new commitment to live out our nation's promise through civility, courage, compassion and character.america, at its best, matches a commitment to principle with a concern for civility. a civil societydemands from each of us good will and respect, fair dealing and forgiveness.some seem to believe that our politics can afford to be petty because, in a time of peace, the stakes of our debates appear small.but the stakes for america are never small. if our country does not lead the cause of freedom, it will not be led. if we do not turn the hearts of children toward knowledge and character, we will lose their gifts and undermine their idealism. if we permit our ey to drift and decline, the vulnerable will suffer most.we must live up to the calling we share. civility is not a tactic or a sentiment. it is the determined choice of trust over cynicism, of ity over chaos. and this commitment,if we keep it, is a way to shared accomplishment.america, at its best, is also courageous.our national courage has been clear in times of depression and war, when defending dangers defined our good. now we must choose if the example of our fathers and mothers will inspire us or condemn us. we must show courage in a time of blessing by confronting problems instead of passing themon to future generations.together, we will reclaim america's schools, before ignorance and apathy claim more young lives.we will reform social security and medicare, sparing our children from struggles we have the power to prevent. andwe will reduce taxes, to recover the momentum of our ey and reward the effort and enterprise of working americans.we will build our defenses beyond challenge, lest weakness invite challenge.we will confront weapons of mass destruction, so that a new century is spared new horrors.the enemies of liberty and our country should make no mistake: america remains engaged in the world by history and by choice, shaping a balance of power thatf avors freedom. we will defend our allies and our interests. we will show purpose without arrogance. we will meet aggression and bad faith with resolve and strength. and to all nations, we will speak for the values that gave our nation birth.america, at its best, is compassionate. in the quiet of american conscience, we know that deep, persistent poverty is unworthy of our nation's promise.and whatever our views of its cause, we can agreethat children at risk are not at fault. abandonment and abuse are not acts of god, they are failures of love.and the proliferation of prisons, however necessary, is no substitute for hope and order in our souls.where there is suffering, there is duty. americans in need are not strangers, they are citizens, not problems, but priorities. and all of us are diminished when any are hopeless.government has great responsibilities for publicsafety and public health, for civil rights and schools. yet compassion is the work of a nation, not just a government.and some needs and hurts are so deep they will only respond to a mentor's touch or a pastor's prayer. church and charity, synagogue and mosque lend our ities their humanity, and they will have an honored place in our plans and in our laws.many in our country do not know the pain of poverty, but we can listen to those who do.and i can pledge our nation to a goal: when we seethat wounded traveler on the road to jericho, we will notpass to the other side.america, at its best, is a place where personal responsibility is valued andexpected.encouraging responsibility is not a search for scapegoats, it is a call to conscience. and though itrequires sacrifice, it brings a deeper fulfillment. we findthe fullness of life not only in options, but in commitments. and we find that children and ity are the commitments thatset us free.our public interest depends on private character, on civic duty and family bonds and basic fairness, on ted, unhonored acts of decency which give direction to our freedom.sometimes in life we are called to do great things.but as a saint of our times has said, every day we are calledto do small things with great love. the most important tasks of a democracy are done by everyone.i will live and lead by these principles: to advance my convictions with civility, to pursue the public interest with courage, to speak for greater justice and compassion, to call for responsibility and try to live it as well.in all these ways, i will bring the values of our history to the care of ourtimes.what you do is as important as anything government does. i ask you to seek a good beyond your comfort; to defend needed reforms against easy attacks; to serve your nation, beginning with your neighbor. i ask you to be citizens: citizens, not spectators; citizens, not subjects; responsible citizens, building ities of service and a nation of character.americans are generous and strong and decent, not because we believe in ourselves, but because we hold beliefs beyond ourselves. when this spirit of citizenship is missing, no government program can replace it. when this spirit is present, no wrong can stand against it.after the declaration of independence was signed, virginia statesman john page wrote to thomas jefferson: "we know the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong. do you not think an angel rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm?"much time has passed since jefferson arrived for his inauguration. the yearsand changes alate. but the themes ofthis day he would know: our nation's grand story of courage and its simple dream of dignity.we are not this story's author, who fills time and eternity with his purpose. yet his purpose is achieved in our duty, and our duty is fulfilled in service to one another.never tiring, never yielding, never finishing, we renew that purpose today, to make our country more just and generous, to affirm the dignity of our lives and every life.this work continues. this story goes on. and an angel still rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm.god bless you all, and god bless america.谢谢大家!敬爱的芮恩奎斯特****官,卡特总统,布什总统,克林顿总统,尊敬的来宾们,我的同胞们,这次权利的和平过渡特权在历史上是罕见的,但在美国是正经的。

布什总统清华大学演讲全文(中英对照).

President Bush Speaks at Tsinghua UniversityTsinghua UniversityBeijing, People's Republic of China10:35 A.M. (LocalPRESIDENT BUSH: Vice President Hu, thank you very much for your kind andgenerous remarks. Thank you for welcoming me and my wife, Laura, here. (Applause. Isee she's keeping pretty good company, with the Secretary of State, Colin Powell. It's good to see you, Mr. Secretary. (Applause. And I see my National Security Advisor, Ms.Condoleezza Rice, who at one time was the provost at Stanford University. So she'scomfortable on university campuses such as this. Thank you for being here, Condi. (Applause.I'm so grateful for the hospitality, and honored for the reception at one of China's,and the world's, great universities.This university was founded, interestingly enough, with thesupport of my country, to further ties between our two nations. I know howimportant this place is to your Vice President. He not only received his degree here, butmore importantly, he met his gracious wife here. (Laughter. I want to thank the students for giving me the chance to meet with you, the chance to talk a little bit about my country and answer some of your questions. The standards and reputation of this university are known around the world, and I know what an achievement it is to be here. So, congratulations. (Applause. I don't know if you know this or not, but my wife and I have two daughters who are in college, just like you. One goes to the University of Texas. One goes to Yale. They're twins. And we are proud of our daughters, just like I'm sure your parents are proud of you. My visit to China comes on an important anniversary, as the Vice President mentioned. Thirty years ago this week, an American President arrived inChina on a trip designed to end decades of estrangement and confront centuries of suspicion. President Richard Nixon showed the world that two vastly differentgovernments could meet on thegrounds of common interest, in the spirit of mutual respect. As they left the airport that day, Premier Zhou Enlai said this to President Nixon: "Your handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world -- 25 years of no communication."During the 30 years since, America and China have exchanged many handshakes offriendship and commerce. And as we have had more contact with each other, the citizensof both countries have gradually learned more about each other. And that's important.Once America knew China only by its history as a great and enduring civilization. Today,we see a China that is still defined by noble traditions of family, scholarship, and honor.And we see a China that is becoming one of the most dynamic and creative societies inthe world -- as demonstrated by the knowledge and potential right here in this room.China is on a rising path, and America welcomes the emergence of a strong and peaceful and prosperous China. (Applause.As America learns more about China, I am concerned thatthe Chinese people do not always see a clear picture of my country. This happens formany reasons, and some of them of our own making. Our movies and television shows often do not portray the values of the real America I know. Our successful businesses show a strength of American commerce, but our spirit, community spirit, and contributions to each other are not always visible as monetary success.Some of the erroneous pictures of America are painted by others. My friend, the Ambassador to China, tells me some Chinese textbooks talk of Americans of "bullying the weak and repressing the poor." Another Chinese textbook, published just last year, teaches that special agents of the FBI are used to "repress the working people." Now,neither of these is true -- and while the words may be leftovers from a previous era, they are misleading and they're harmful.In fact, Americans feel a special responsibility for the weak and the poor. Our government spends billions of dollars to provide health care and food and housing for those whocannot help themselves -- and even more important, many of our citizens contribute their own money and time to help those in need. American compassion also stretches way beyond our borders. We're the number one provider of humanitarian aid to people in need throughout the world. And as for the men and women of the FBI and law enforcement, they're working people; they, themselves, are working people who devote their lives to fighting crime and corruption.My country certainly has its share of problems, no question about that. And we have our faults. Like most nations we're on a long journey toward achieving our own ideals of equality and justice. Yet there's a reason our nation shines as a beacon of hope and opportunity, a reason many throughout the world dream of coming to America. It's because we're a free nation, where men and women have the to achieve their dreams. No matter your background or your circumstance of birth, in America you can get a good education, you can start your own business, you can raise a family, you can worship freely, and helpelect the leaders of your community and your country. You can support the policies of our government, or you're free to openly disagree with them. Those who fear freedom sometimes argue it could lead to chaos, but it does not, because freedom means more than every man for himself. Liberty gives our citizens many rights, yet expects them to exercise important responsibilities. Our liberty is given direction and purpose by moral character, shaped in strong families, strong communities, and strong religious institutions, and overseen by a strong and fair legal system. My country's greatest symbol to the worldis the Statue of Liberty, and it was designed by special care. I don't know if you've ever seen the Statue of Liberty, but if you look closely, she's holding not one object, but two.In one hand is the familiar torch we call the "light of liberty." And in the other hand is abook of law.We're a nation of laws. Our courts are honest and they are independent. ThePresident -- me -- I can't tell the courts how to rule, and neither can any other member ofthe executive or legislative branch of government. Under ourlaw, everyone stands equal. No one is above the law, and no one is beneath it.All political power in America is limited and it is temporary, and only given by thefree vote of the people. We have a Constitution, now two centuries old, which limits andbalances the power of the three branches of our government, the judicial branch, the legislative branch, and the executive branch, of which I'm a part.Many of the values that guide our life in America are first shaped in our families, just as they are in your country. American moms and dads love their children and work hard and sacrifice for them, because we believe life can always be better for the next generation. In our families, we find love and learn responsibility and character.And many Americans voluntarily devote part of their lives to serving other people. An amazing number -- nearly half of all adults in America -- volunteer time every week to make their communities better by mentoring children, or by visiting the sick, or caring for the elderly, or helping with thousands of other needs and causes.This is one of the great strengths of my country. People take for helping others, without being told, motivated by their good hearts and often by their faith. America is a nation guided by faith. Someone once called us "a nation with the soul of a church." This may interest you -- 95 percent of Americans say they believe in God, and I'm one of them.When I met President Jiang Zemin in Shanghai a few months ago, I had the honor of sharing with him how faith changed my life and how faith contributes to the life of mycountry. Faith points to a moral law beyond man's law, and calls us to duties higher thanmaterial gain. Freedom of religion is not something to be feared, it's to be welcomed, because faith gives us a moral core and teaches us to hold ourselves to high standards, to love and to serve others, and to live responsible lives.If you travel across America -- and I hope you do some day if you haven't been there -- you will find people of many different ethic backgrounds and many different faiths. We're a varied nation. We're home to 2.3 million Americansof Chinese ancestry, who can be found working in the offices of our corporations, or in the Cabinet of the President of the United States, or skating for the America Olympic team. Every immigrant, by taking an oath of allegiance to our country, becomes just as just as American as the President. America shows that a society can be vast and it can be varied, yet still one country, commanding the allegiance and love of its people.And all these qualities of America were widely on display on a single day, September the 11th, the day when terrorists, murderers, attacked my nation. American policemen and firefighters, by the hundreds, ran into burning towers in desperation to save their fellow citizens. V olunteers came from everywhere to help with rescue efforts. Americans donated blood and gave money to help the families of victims. America had prayer services all over our country, and people raised flags to show their pride and unity. And you need to know, none of this was ordered by the government; it happened spontaneously, by the initiative of free people.Life in America shows that liberty, paired with law is not to be feared. In a free society, diversity is not disorder. Debate is not strife. And dissent is not revolution. A free society trusts its citizens to seek greatness in themselves and their country.It was my honor to visit China in 1975 -- some of you weren't even born then. It shows how old I am. (Laughter. And a lot has changed in your country since then. Chinahas made amazing progress -- in openness and enterprise and economic freedom. Andthis progress previews China'a great potential.China has joined the World Trade Organization, and as youto China's legal system. A modern China will have a consistent rule of law to governcommerce and secure the rights of its people. The new China your generation is buildingwill need the profound wisdom of your traditions. The lure of materialism challenges oursociety -- challenges society in our country, and in many successful countries. Yourancient ethic of personal and family responsibilitywill serve you well.Behind China's economic success today are talented, brilliant and energetic people.In the near future, those same men and women will play a full and active role in your government. This university is not simply turning out specialists, it is preparing citizens. And citizens are not spectators in the affairs of their country. They are participants in its future.Change is coming. China is already having secret ballot and competitive elections atthe local level. Nearly 20 years ago, a great Chinese leader, Deng Xiaoping, said this -- Iwant you to hear his words. He said that China would eventually expand democraticelections all the way to the national level. I look forward to that day.Tens of millions of Chinese today are relearning Buddhist, Taoist, and local religious traditions, or practicing Christianity, Islam, and other faiths. Regardless of where or how these believers worship, they're no threat to public order; in fact, they make good citizens. For centuries, this country has had a tradition of religious tolerance. Myprayer is that all persecution will end, so that all in China are free to gather andworship as they wish.All these changes will lead to a stronger, more confident China -- a China that canastonish and enrich the world, a China that your generation will help create. This is one of the most exciting times in the history of your country, a time when even the grandest hopes seem within your reach. My nation offers you our respect and our friendship. Six years from now, athletes from America and around the world will come to your country for the Olympic games. And I'm confident they will find a China that is becoming a da guo, a leading nation, at peace with its people and at peace with the world.Thank you for letting me come. (Applause.布什 :胡副主席, 非常感谢您的欢迎致辞, 非常感谢您非常感谢您在这里接待我和我的夫人劳拉。

布什告别演讲稿精选(中英文对照)Bushsfarewellspeech第一篇:布什告别演讲稿精选(中英文对照)Bush's farewell speech THE PRESIDENT: Fellow citizens: For eight years, it has been my honor to serve as your President. The first decade of this new century has been a period of consequence — a time set apart. Tonight, with a thankful heart, I have asked for a final opportunity to share some thoughts on the journey that we have traveled together, and the future of our nation.Five days from now, the world will witness the vitality of American democracy. In a tradition dating back to our founding, the presidency will pass to a successor chosen by you, the American people. Standing on the steps of the Capitol will be a man whose history reflects the enduring promise of our land. This is a moment of hope and pride for our whole nation. And I join all Americans in offering best wishes to President-Elect Obama, his wife Michelle, and their two beautiful girls.Tonight I am filled with gratitude — to Vice President Cheney and members of my administration; to Laura, who brought joy to this house and love to my life; to our wonderful daughters, Barbara and Jenna; to my parents, whose examples have provided strength for a lifetime. And above all, I thank the American people for the trust you have given me. I thank you for the prayers that have lifted my spirits. And I thank you for the countless acts of courage, generosity, and grace that I have witnessed these past eight years.This evening, my thoughts return to the first night I addressed you from this house —September the 11th, 2001. That morning, terrorists took nearly 3,000 lives in the worst attack on America since Pearl Harbor. I remember standing in the rubbleof the World Trade Center three days later, surrounded by rescuers who had been working around the clock. I remember talking to brave souls who charged through smoke-filled corridors at the Pentagon, and to husbands and wives whose loved ones became heroes aboard Flight 93. I remember Arlene Howard, who gave me her fallen son’s police shield as a reminder of all that was lost. And I still carry his badge.As the years passed, most Americans were able to return to life much as it had been before 9/11. But I never did. Every morning, I received a briefing on the threats to our nation. I vowed to do everything in my power to keep us safe.Over the past seven years, a new Department of Homeland Security has been created. The military, the intelligence community, and the FBI have been transformed. Our nation is equipped with new tools to monitor the terrorists’ movements, freeze their finances, and break up their plots. And with strong allies at our side, we have taken the fight to the terrorists and those who support them. Afghanistan has gone from a nation where the Taliban harbored al Qaeda and stoned women in the streets to a young democracy that is fighting terror and encouraging girls to go to school. Iraq has gone from a brutal dictatorship and a sworn enemy of America to an Arab democracy at the heart of the Middle East and a friend of the United States.There is legitimate debate about many of these decisions. But there can be little debate about the results. America has gone more than seven years without another terrorist attack on our soil. This is a tribute to those who toil night and day to keep us safe — law enforcement officers, intelligence analysts, homeland security and diplomatic personnel, and the men and women ofthe United States Armed Forces.Our nation is blessed to have citizens who volunteer to defend us in this time of danger. I have cherished meeting these selfless patriots and their families. And America owes you a debt of gratitude. And to all our men and women in uniform listening tonight: There has been no higher honor than serving as your Commander-in-Chief.The battles waged by our troops are part of a broader struggle between two dramatically different systems. Under one, a small band of fanatics demands total obedience to an oppressive ideology, condemns women to subservience, and marks unbelievers for murder. The other system is based on the conviction that freedom is the universal gift of Almighty God, and that liberty and justice light the path to peace.This is the belief that gave birth to our nation. And in the long run, advancing this belief is the only practical way to protect our citizens. When people live in freedom, they do not willingly choose leaders who pursue campaigns of terror. When people have hope in the future, they will not cede their lives to violence and extremism. So around the world, America is promoting human liberty, human rights, and human dignity. We’re standing with dissidents and young democracies, providing AIDS medicine to dying patients — to bring dying patients back to life, and sparing mothers and babies from malaria. And this great republic born alone in liberty is leading the world toward a new age when freedom belongs to all nations.For eight years, we’ve also strived to expand opportunity and hope here at home. Across our country, students are rising to meet higher standards in public schools. A new Medicare prescription drug benefit is bringing peace of mind to seniors and the disabled. Every taxpayer pays lower income taxes. Theaddicted and suffering are finding new hope through faith-based programs. Vulnerable human life is better protected. Funding for our veterans has nearly doubled. America’s air and water and lands are measurably cleaner. And the federal bench includes wise new members like Justice Sam Alito and Chief Justice John Roberts.When challenges to our prosperity emerged, we rose to meet them. Facing the prospect of a financial collapse, we took decisive measures to safeguard our economy. These are very tough times for hardworking families, but the toll would be far worse if we had not acted. All Americans are in this together. And together, with determination and hard work, we will restore our economy to the path of growth. We will show the world once again the resilience of America’s free enterprise sys tem.Like all who have held this office before me, I have experienced setbacks. There are things I would do differently if given the chance. Yet I’ve always acted with the best interests of our country in mind. I have followed my conscience and done what I thought was right. You may not agree with some of the tough decisions I have made. But I hope you can agree that I was willing to make the tough decisions.The decades ahead will bring more hard choices for our country, and there are some guiding principles that should shape our course.While our nation is safer than it was seven years ago, the gravest threat to our people remains another terrorist attack. Our enemies are patient, and determined to strike again. America did nothing to seek or deserve this conflict. But we have been given solemn responsibilities, and we must meet them. We must resist complacency. We must keep our resolve. And we must never letdown our guard.At the same time, we must continue to engage the world with confidence and clear purpose. In the face of threats from abroad, it can be tempting to seek comfort by turning inward. But we must reject isolationism and its companion, protectionism. Retreating behind our borders would only invite danger. In the 21st century, security and prosperity at home depend on the expansion of liberty abroad. If America does not lead the cause of freedom, that cause will not be led.As we address these challenges —and others we cannot foresee tonight —America must maintain our moral clarity. I’ve often spoken to you about good and evil, and this has made some uncomfortable. But good and evil are present in this world, and between the two of them there can be no compromise. Murdering the innocent to advance an ideology is wrong every time, everywhere. Freeing people from oppression and despair is eternally right. This nation must continue to speak out for justice and truth. We must always be willing to act in their defense —and to advance the cause of peace.President Thomas Jefferson once wrote, “I l ike the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.” As I leave the house he occupied two centuries ago, I share that optimism. America is a young country, full of vitality, constantly growing and renewing itself. And even in the toughest times, we lift our eyes to the broad horizon ahead.I have confidence in the promise of America because I know the character of our people. This is a nation that inspires immigrants to risk everything for the dream of freedom. This is a nation where citizens show calm in times of danger, and compassion in the face of suffering. We see examples ofAmerica’s character all around us. And Laura and I have invited some of them to join us in the White House this evening.We see America’s character in Dr. Tony Recasn er, a principal who opened a new charter school from the ruins of Hurricane Katrina. We see it in Julio Medina, a former inmate who leads a faith-based program to help prisoners returning to society. We’ve seen it in Staff Sergeant Aubrey McDade, who charg ed into an ambush in Iraq and rescued three of his fellow Marines.We see America’s character in Bill Krissoff — a surgeon from California. His son, Nathan — a Marine — gave his life in Iraq. When I met Dr. Krissoff and his family, he delivered some surprising news: He told me he wanted to join the Navy Medical Corps in honor of his son. This good man was 60 years old — 18 years above the age limit. But his petition for a waiver was granted, and for the past year he has trained in battlefield medicine. Lieutenant Commander Krissoff could not be here tonight, because he will soon deploy to Iraq, where he will help save America’s wounded warriors — and uphold the legacy of his fallen son.In citizens like these, we see the best of our countrycitizen of the United States of America.And so, my fellow Americans, for the final time: Good night. May God bless this house and our next President. And may God bless you and our wonderful country. Thank you. (Applause.) 各位公民:八年来,我有幸担任你们的总统。

芮恩奎斯特上帝保佑我。

布什上帝保佑我。

芮恩奎斯特恭喜!谢谢大家!尊敬的芮恩奎斯特大法官,卡特总统,布什总统,克林顿总统,尊敬的来宾们,我的同胞们,这次权利的和平过渡在历史上是罕见的,但在美国是平常的。

我们以朴素的宣誓庄严地维护了古老的传统,同时开始了新的历程。

首先,我要感谢克林顿总统为这个国家作出的贡献,也感谢副总统戈尔在竞选过程中的热情与风度。

站在这里,我很荣幸,也有点受宠若惊。

在我之前,许多美国领导人从这里起步;在我之后,也会有许多领导人从这里继续前进。

在美国悠久的历史中,我们每个人都有自己的位置;我们还在继续推动着历史前进,但是我们不可能看到它的尽头。

这是一部新世界的发展史,是一部后浪推前浪的历史。

这是一部美国由奴隶制社会发展成为崇尚自由的社会的历史。

这是一个强国保护而不是占有世界的历史,是捍卫而不是征服世界的历史。

这就是美国史。

它不是一部十全十美的民族发展史,但它是一部在伟大和永恒理想指导下几代人团结奋斗的历史。

这些理想中最伟大的是正在慢慢实现的美国的承诺,这就是每个人都有自身的价值,每个人都有成功的机会,每个人天生都会有所作为的。

美国人民肩负着一种使命,那就是要竭力将这个诺言变成生活中和法律上的现实。

虽然我们的国家过去在追求实现这个承诺的途中停滞不前甚至倒退,但我们仍将坚定不移地完成这一使命。

在上个世纪的大部分时间里,美国自由民主的信念犹如汹涌大海中的岩石。

现在它更像风中的种子,把自由带给每个民族。

在我们的国家,民主不仅仅是一种信念,而是全人类的希望。

民主,我们不会独占,而会竭力让大家分享。

民主,我们将铭记于心并且不断传播。

225年过去了,我们仍有很长的路要走。

有很多公民取得了成功,但也有人开始怀疑,怀疑我们自己的国家所许下的诺言,甚至怀疑它的公正。

失败的教育,潜在的偏见和出身的环境限制了一些美国人的雄心。

It is the story of a new world that became afriend and liberator of the old, a story of a slave-holding society thatbecame a servant of freedom, the story of a power that went into the worldto protect but not possess, to defend but not to conquer.It is the American story -- a story of flawed and fallible people, unitedacross the generations by grand and enduring ideals.The grandest of these ideals is an unfolding American promise thateveryone belongs, that everyone deserves a chance, that no insignificant person waseverborn.Americans are called to enact this promise in our lives and in our laws.And though our nation has sometimes halted, and sometimes delayed, we mustfollow no other course.Through much of the last century, America's faith in freedom and democracywasa rock in a raging sea. Now it is a seed upon the wind, taking root inmany nations.Our democratic faith is more than the creed of our country, it is theinborn hope of our humanity, an ideal we carry but do not own, a trust we bear andpass along. And even after nearly 225 years, we have a long way yet totravel.While many of our citizens prosper, others doubt the promise, even thejustice, of our own country. The ambitions of some Americans are limitedby failing schools and hidden prejudice and the circumstances of theirbirth. And sometimes our differences run so deep, it seems we share acontinent, but not a country.We do not accept this, and we will not allow it. Our unity, our union, isthe serious work of leaders and citizens in every generation. And this ismy solemn pledge: I will work to build a single nation of justice andopportunity.I know this is in our reach because we are guided by a power larger thanourselves who creates us equal in His image.And we are confident in principles that unite and lead us onward.America has never been united by blood or birth or soil. We are bound byideals that move us beyond our backgrounds, lift us above our interestsand teach us what it means to be citizens. Every child must be taughtthese principles. Every citizen must uphold them. And every immigrant, by embracing theseideals, makes our country more, not less, American.Today, we affirm a new commitment to live out our nation'spromise throughcivility, courage, compassion and character.America, at its best, matches a commitment to principle with a concern forcivility. A civil society demands from each of us good will and respect,fair dealing and forgiveness.Some seem to believe that our politics can afford to be petty because, ina time of peace, the stakes of our debates appear small.But the stakes for America are never small. If our country does not leadthe cause of freedom, it will not be led. If we do not turn the hearts ofchildren toward knowledge and character, we will lose their gifts andundermine their idealism. If we permit our economy to drift and decline,the vulnerable will suffer most.We must live up to the calling we share. Civility is not a tactic or asentime nt. It is the determined choice of trust over cynicism, ofcommunity over chaos. And this commitment, if we keep it, is a way toshared accomplishment.America, at its best, is also courageous.Our national courage has been clear in times of depression and war, whendefending common dangers defined our common good. Now we must choose ifthe example of our fathers and mothers will inspire us or condemn us. Wemust show courage in a time of blessing by confronting problems instead ofpassing them on tofuture generations.Together, we will reclaim America's schools, before ignorance and apathyclaim more young lives.We will reform Social Security and Medicare, sparing our children fromstruggles we have the power to prevent. And we will reduce taxes, torecover the momentum of our economy and reward the effort and enterpriseof working Americans.We will build our defenses beyond challenge, lest weakness invitechallenge.We will confront weapons of mass destruction, so that a new century issparednew horrors.The enemies of liberty and our country should make no mistake: Americaremains engaged in the world by history and by choice, shaping a balanceof power that favors freedom. We will defend our allies and our interests. We willshow purpose without arrogance. We will meet aggression and bad faith withresolve and strength. And to all nations, we will speak for the valuesthat gave our nation birth.America, at its best, is compassionate. In the quiet of Americanconscience, we know that deep, persistent poverty is unworthy of ournation's promise.And whatever our views of its cause, we can agree that children at riskare not at fault. Abandonment and abuse are not acts of God, they arefailures of love.And the proliferation of prisons, however necessary, is no substitute forhope and order in our souls.Where there is suffering, there is duty. Americans in need are notstrangers, they are citizens, not problems, but priorities. And all of usare diminished when any are hopeless.Government has great responsibilities for public safety and public health,for civil rights and common schools. Yet compassion is the work of anation, not just a government.And some needs and hurts are so deep they will only respond to a mentor'stouch or a pastor's prayer. Church and charity, synagogue and mosque lendour communities their humanity, and they will have an honored place in ourplans and in our laws.Many in our country do not know the pain of poverty, but we can listen tothose who do.And I can pledge our nation to a goal: When we see that wounded traveleron the road to Jericho, we will not pass to the other side.America, at its best, is a place where personal responsibility is valuedand expected.Encouraging responsibility is not a search for scapegoats, it is a call toconcience. And though it requires sacrifice, it brings a deeper fulfillment. We find the fullness of life not only in options, but incommitments. And we find that children and community are the commitmentsthat set us free.Our public interest depends on private character, on civic duty and familybonds and basic fairness, on uncounted, unhonored acts of decency whichgive direction to our freedom.Sometimes in life we are called to do great things. But as a saint of ourtimes has said, every day we are called to do small things with greatlove. The most important tasks of a democracy are done by everyone.I will live and lead by these principles: to advance my convictions withcivility, to pursue the public interest with courage, to speak for greaterjustice and compassion, to call for responsibility and try to live it aswell.In all these ways, I will bring the values of our history to the care ofour times.What you do is as important as anything government does.I ask you to seeka common good beyond your comfort; to defend needed reforms against easyattacks;to serve your nation, beginning with your neighbor. I ask you to becitizens:citizens, not spectators; citizens, not subjects; responsible citizens,building communities of service and a nation of character.Americans are generous and strong and decent, not because we believe inourselves, but because we hold beliefs beyond ourselves.When this spiritof citizenship is missing, no government program can replace it. When thisspirit is present, no wrong can stand against it.After the Declaration of Independence was signed, Virginia statesman JohnPage wrote to Thomas Jefferson: "We know the race is not to the swift northe battle to the strong. Do you not think an angel rides in the whirlwind anddirects this storm?"Much time has passed since Jefferson arrived for his inauguration. Theyears and changes accumulate. But the themes of this day he would know:our nation's grand story of courage and its simple dream of dignity.We are not this story's author, who fills time and eternity with hispurpose.Yet his purpose is achieved in our duty, and our duty is fulfilled inservice to one another.Never tiring, never yielding, never finishing, we renew that purposetoday, to make our country more just and generous, to affirm the dignityof our lives and every life.This work continues. This story goes on. And an angel still rides in thewhirl wind and directs this storm.God bless you all, and God bless America.。

小布什就职演说中英文

 小布什就职演说中英文

小布什就职演说中英文乔治·沃克·布什,是美国第43任总统(第54-55届)。

那么你想知道美国总统小布什在就职时是怎么发言的?以下是给大家分享了美国总统小布什就职演说中英文,希望大家有帮助。

美国总统小布什就职演说中文尊敬的芮恩奎斯特大法官,卡特总统,布什总统,克林顿总统,尊敬的来宾们,我的同胞们,这次权利的和平过渡在历史上是罕见的,但在美国是平常的。

我们以朴素的宣誓庄严地维护了古老的传统,同时开始了新的历程。

首先,我要感谢克林顿总统为这个国家作出的贡献,也感谢副总统戈尔在竞选过程中的热情与风度。

站在这里,我很荣幸,也有点受宠若惊。

在我之前,许多美国领导人从这里起步;在我之后,也会有许多领导人从这里继续前进。

在美国悠久的历史中,我们每个人都有自己的位置;我们还在继续推动着历史前进,但是我们不可能看到它的尽头。

这是一部新世界的发展史,是一部后浪推前浪的历史。

这是一部美国由奴隶制社会发展成为崇尚自由的社会的历史。

这是一个强国保护而不是占有世界的历史,是捍卫而不是征服世界的历史。

这就是美国史。

它不是一部十全十美的民族发展史,但它是一部在伟大和永恒理想指导下几代人团结奋斗的历史。

这些理想中最伟大的是正在慢慢实现的美国的承诺,这就是:每个人都有自身的价值,每个人都有成功的机会,每个人天生都会有所作为的。

美国人民肩负着一种使命,那就是要竭力将这个诺言变成生活中和法律上的现实。

虽然我们的国家过去在追求实现这个承诺的途中停滞不前甚至倒退,但我们仍将坚定不移地完成这一使命。

在上个世纪的大部分时间里,美国自由民主的信念犹如汹涌大海中的岩石。

现在它更像风中的种子,把自由带给每个民族。

在我们的国家,民主不仅仅是一种信念,而是全人类的希望。

民主,我们不会独占,而会竭力让大家分享。

民主,我们将铭记于心并且不断传播。

220xx年过去了,我们仍有很长的路要走。

有很多公民取得了成功,但也有人开始怀疑,怀疑我们自己的国家所许下的诺言,甚至怀疑它的公正。

angel stillridesinthewhirlwindanddirectsthisstorm.Godblessyouall,andGodblessAmerica.谢谢大家!尊敬的芮恩奎斯特大法官,卡特总统,布什总统,克林顿总统,尊敬的来宾们,我的同胞们,这次权利的和平过渡在历史上是罕见的,但在美国是平常的。

这些理想中最伟大的是正在慢慢实现的美国的承诺,这就是:每个人都有自身的价值,每个人都有成功的机会,每个人天生都会有所作为的。

美国人民肩负着一种使命,那就是要竭力将这个诺言变成生活中和法律上的现实。

虽然我们的国家过去在追求实现这个承诺的途中停滞不前甚至倒退,但我们仍将坚定不移地完成这一使命。

在上个世纪的大部分时间里,美国自由民主的信念犹如汹涌大海中的岩石。

现在它更像风中的种子,把自由带给每个民族。

在我们的国家,民主不仅仅是一种信念,而是全人类的希望。

民主,我们不会独占,而会竭力让大家分享。

民主,我们将铭记于心并且不断传播。

225年过去了,我们仍有很长的路要走。

有很多公民取得了成功,但也有人开始怀疑,怀疑我们自己的国家所许下的诺言,甚至怀疑它的公正。

失败的教育,潜在的偏见和出身的环境限制了一些美国人的雄心。

有时,我们的分歧是如此之深,似乎我们虽身处同一个大陆,但不属于同一个国家。

我们不能接受这种分歧,也无法容许它的存在。

我们的团结和统一,是每一代领导人和每一个公民的严肃使命。

在此,我郑重宣誓:我将竭力建设一个公正、充满机会的统一国家。

我知道这是我们的目标,因为上帝按自己的身形创造了我们,上帝高于一切的力量将引导我们前进。

对这些将我们团结起来并指引我们向前的原则,我们充满信心。

血缘、出身或地域从未将美国联合起来。

只有理想,才能使我们心系一处,超越自己,放弃个人利益,并逐步领会何谓公民。

每个孩子都必须学习这些原则。

每个公民都必须坚持这些原则。

每个移民,只有接受这些原则,才能使我们的国家不丧失而更具美国特色。

今天,我们在这里重申一个新的信念,即通过发扬谦恭、勇气、同情心和个性的精神来实现我们国家的理想。

美国在它最鼎盛时也没忘记遵循谦逊有礼的原则。

一个文明的社会需要我们每个人品质优良,尊重他人,为人公平和宽宏大量。

有人认为我们的政治制度是如此的微不足道,因为在和平年代,我们所争论的话题都是无关紧要的。

但是,对我们美国来说,我们所讨论的问题从来都不是什么小事。

如果我们不领导和平事业,那么和平将无人来领导;如果我们不引导我们的孩子们真心地热爱知识、发挥个性,他们的天分将得不到发挥,理想将难以实现。

如果我们不采取适当措施,任凭经济衰退,最大的受害者将是平民百姓。

我们应该时刻听取时代的呼唤。

谦逊有礼不是战术也不是感情用事。

这是我们最坚定的选择--在批评声中赢得信任;在混乱中寻求统一。

如果遵循这样的承诺,我们将会享有共同的成就。

美国有强大的国力作后盾,将会勇往直前。

在大萧条和战争时期,我们的人民在困难面前表现得无比英勇,克服我们共同的困难体现了我们共同的优秀品质。

现在,我们正面临着选择,如果我们作出正确的选择,祖辈一定会激励我们;如果我们的选择是错误的,祖辈会谴责我们的。

上帝正眷顾着这个国家,我们必须显示出我们的勇气,敢于面对问题,而不是将它们遗留给我们的后代。

我们要共同努力,健全美国的学校教育,不能让无知和冷漠吞噬更多的年轻生命。

我们要改革社会医疗和保险制度,在力所能及的范围内拯救我们的孩子。

我们要减低税收,恢复经济,酬劳辛勤工作的美国人民。

我们要防患于未然,懈怠会带来麻烦。

我们还要阻止武器泛滥,使新的世纪摆脱恐怖的威胁。

反对自由和反对我们国家的人应该明白:美国仍将积极参与国际事务,力求世界力量的均衡,让自由的力量遍及全球。

这是历史的选择。

我们会保护我们的盟国,捍卫我们的利益。

我们将谦逊地向世界人民表示我们的目标。

我们将坚决反击各种侵略和不守信用的行径。

我们要向全世界宣传孕育了我们伟大民族的价值观。

正处在鼎盛时期的美国也不缺乏同情心。

当我们静心思考,我们就会明了根深蒂固的贫穷根本不值得我国作出承诺。

无论我们如何看待贫穷的原因,我们都必须承认,孩子敢于冒险不等于在犯错误。

放纵与滥用都为上帝所不容。

这些都是缺乏爱的结果。

监狱数量的增长虽然看起来是有必要的,但并不能代替我们心中的希望-人人遵纪守法。

哪里有痛苦,我们的义务就在哪里。

对我们来说,需要帮助的美国人不是陌生人,而是我们的公民;不是负担,而是急需救助的对象。

当有人陷入绝望时,我们大家都会因此变得渺小。

对公共安全和大众健康,对民权和学校教育,政府都应负有极大的责任。

然而,同情心不只是政府的职责,更是整个国家的义务。

有些需要是如此的迫切,有些伤痕是如此的深刻,只有导师的爱抚、牧师的祈祷才能有所感触。

不论是教堂还是慈善机构、犹太会堂还是清真寺,都赋予了我们的社会它们特有的人性,因此它们理应在我们的建设和法律上受到尊重。

我们国家的许多人都不知道贫穷的痛苦。

但我们可以听到那些感触颇深的人们的倾诉。

我发誓我们的国家要达到一种境界:当我们看见受伤的行人倒在远行的路上,我们决不会袖手旁观。

正处于鼎盛期的美国重视并期待每个人担负起自己的责任。

鼓励人们勇于承担责任不是让人们充当替罪羊,而是对人的良知的呼唤。

虽然承担责任意味着牺牲个人利益,但是你能从中体会到一种更加深刻的成就感。

我们实现人生的完整不单是通过摆在我们面前的选择,而且是通过我们的实践来实现。

我们知道,通过对整个社会和我们的孩子们尽我们的义务,我们将得到最终自由。

我们的公共利益依赖于我们独立的个性;依赖于我们的公民义务,家庭纽带和基本的公正;依赖于我们无数的、默默无闻的体面行动,正是它们指引我们走向自由。

在生活中,有时我们被召唤着去做一些惊天动地的事情。

但是,正如我们时代的一位圣人所言,每一天我们都被召唤带着挚爱去做一些小事情。

一个民主制度最重要的任务是由大家每一个人来完成的。

我为人处事的原则包括:坚信自己而不强加于人,为公众的利益勇往直前,追求正义而不乏同情心,勇担责任而决不推卸。

我要通过这一切,用我们历史上传统价值观来哺育我们的时代。

(同胞们),你们所做的一切和政府的工作同样重要。

我希望你们不要仅仅追求个人享受而忽略公众的利益;要捍卫既定的改革措施,使其不会轻易被攻击;要从身边小事做起,为我们的国家效力。

我希望你们成为真正的公民,而不是旁观者,更不是臣民。

你们应成为有责任心的公民,共同来建设一个互帮互助的社会和有特色的国家。

美国人民慷慨、强大、体面,这并非因为我们信任我们自己,而是因为我们拥有超越我们自己的信念。

一旦这种公民精神丧失了,无论何种政府计划都无法弥补它。

一旦这种精神出现了,无论任何错误都无法抗衡它。

在《独立宣言》签署之后,弗吉尼亚州的政治家约翰佩齐曾给托马斯杰弗逊写信说:”我们知道,身手敏捷不一定就能赢得比赛,力量强大不一定就能赢得战争。

难道这一切不都是上帝安排的吗?”杰斐逊就任总统的那个年代离我们已经很远了。

时光飞逝,美国发生了翻天覆地的变化。

但是有一点他肯定能够预知,即我们这个时代的主题仍然是:我们国家无畏向前的恢宏故事和它追求尊严的纯朴梦想。

我们不是这个故事的作者,是杰斐逊作者本人的伟大理想穿越时空,并通过我们每天的努力在变为现实。

我们正在通过大家的努力在履行着各自的职责。

带着永不疲惫、永不气馁、永不完竭的信念,今天我们重树这样的目标:使我们的国家变得更加公正、更加慷慨,去验证我们每个人和所有人生命的尊严。

这项工作必须继续下去。

这个故事必须延续下去。

上帝会驾驭我们航行的。
