--- 袁隆平在2004感动中国中的颁奖词
2020/7/27
他在接受“感动中国”栏目组采访 时说：“这不是我个人的荣誉，而是国 家的荣誉，全国人民的荣誉”。
袁隆平：“我感到最愉快的是一个 出新成果，能够在名分上得到安慰的， 有所寄托的要出新成果，我不停留在原 有的这个成绩的基础上，我相信我们古 人讲的话，“谋事在人，成事在天”。
2020/7/27
今天中国水稻种植面积中，约有一半 是采用袁隆平培育的杂交产品，每年生产 的稻谷可以多养活6000多万人。2004年， 袁隆平领导的超级杂交稻项目不断取得重 大突破，在育种方面提前一年实现了大面 积亩产超过800公斤的目标，这意味着每 年又可以多养活7500万人。

他是一位真正的耕耘者。当他还是一 个乡村教师的时候，已经具有颠覆世界 权威的胆识；当他名满天下的时候，却 仍然只是专注于田畴。淡薄名利，一介 农夫，播撒智慧，收获富足。他毕生的 梦想，就是让所有人远离饥饿。喜看稻 菽千重浪，最是风流袁隆平！
