肯尼迪就职演说 完整版

Vice President Johnson, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Chief Justice, President Eisenhower, Vice President Nixon, President Truman, Reverend Clergy, fellow citizens:We observe today not a victory of party, but a celebration of freedom symbolizing an end, as well as a beginning signifying renewal, as well as change. For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three quarters ago.The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage, and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success of liberty.This much we pledge and more.To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends. United there is little we cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures. Divided there is little we can do for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder.To those new states whom we welcome to the ranks of the free, we pledge our word that one form of colonial control shall not have passed away merely to be replaced by a far more iron tyranny. We shall not always expect to find them supporting our view. But we shall always hope to find them strongly supporting their own freedom and to remember that, in the past, those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside.To those people in the huts and villages of half the globe struggling to break the bonds of mass misery, we pledge our best efforts to help them help themselves, for whatever period is required not because the Communists may be doing it, not because we seek their votes, but because it is right. If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.To our sister republics south of our border, we offer a special pledge: to convert our good words into good deeds, in a new alliance for progress, to assist free men and free governments incasting off the chains of poverty. But this peaceful revolution of hope cannot become the prey of hostile powers. Let all our neighbors know that we shall join with them to oppose aggression or subversion anywhere in the Americas. And let every other power know that this hemisphere intends to remain the master of its own house.To that world assembly of sovereign states, the United Nations, our last best hope in an age where the instruments of war have far outpaced the instruments of peace, we renew our pledge of support to prevent it from becoming merely a forum for invective, to strengthen its shield of the new and the weak, and to enlarge the area in which its writ may run..Finally, to those nations who would make themselves our adversary, we offer not a pledge but a request: that both sides begin anew the quest for peace, before the dark powers of destruction unleashed by science engulf all humanity in planned or accidental selfdestruction. We dare not tempt them with weakness. For only when our arms are sufficient beyond doubt can we be certain beyond doubt that they will never be employed. But neither can two great and powerful groups of nations take comfort from our present course both sides overburdened by the cost of modern weapons, both rightly alarmed by the steady spread of the deadly atom, yet both racing to alter that uncertain balance of terror that stays the hand of mankind's final war.So let us begin anew remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness, and sincerity is always subject to proof. Let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate.Let both sides explore what problems unite us instead of belaboring those problems which divide us.Let both sides, for the first time, formulate serious and precise proposals for the inspection and control of arms, and bring the absolute power to destroy other nations under the absolute control of all nations.Let both sides seek to invoke the wonders of science instead of its terrors. Together let us explore the stars, conquer the deserts, eradicate disease, tap the ocean depths, and encourage the arts and commerce.Let both sides unite to heed, in all corners of the earth, the command of Isaiah to "undo the heavy burdens, and [to] let the oppressed go free."¹And, if a beachhead of cooperation may push back the jungle of suspicion, let both sides join in creating a new endeavor not a new balance of power, but a new world of law where the strong are just, and the weak secure, and the peace preserved.All this will not be finished in the first one hundred days. Nor will it be finished in the first one thousand days; nor in the life of this Administration; nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.In your hands, my fellow citizens, more than mine, will rest the final success or failure of our course. Since this country was founded, each generation of Americans has been summoned to give testimony to its national loyalty. The graves of young Americans who answered the call to service surround the globe.Now the trumpet summons us again not as a call to bear arms, though arms we need not as a call to battle, though embattled we are but a call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle, year in and year out, "rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation,"² a struggle against the common enemies of man: tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself. Can we forge against these enemies a grand and global alliance, North and South, East and West, that can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind? Will you join in that historic effort?In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it. And the glow from that fire can truly light the world.And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.My fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us here the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth God's work must truly be our own..。

经典就职演讲:肯尼迪就职演讲

经典就职演讲:肯尼迪就职演讲我们今天庆祝的并不是一次政党的胜利,而是一次自由的庆典;它象征着结束,也象征着开始;意味着更新,也意味着变革。
因为我已在你们和全能的上帝面前,作了跟我们祖先将近一又四分之三世纪以前所拟定的相同的庄严誓言。
现今世界已经很不同了,因为人在自己血肉之躯的手中握有足以消灭一切形式的人类贫困和一切形式的人类生命的力量。
可是我们祖先奋斗不息所维护的革命信念,在世界各地仍处于争论之中。
那信念就是注定人权并非来自政府的慷慨施与,而是上帝所赐。
我们今天不敢忘记我们是那第一次革命的继承人,让我从此时此地告诉我们的朋友,并且也告诉我们的敌人,这支火炬已传交新一代的美国人,他们出生在本世纪,经历过战争的锻炼,受过严酷而艰苦的和平的熏陶,以我们的古代传统自豪,而且不愿目睹或容许人权逐步被褫夺。
对于这些人权我国一向坚贞不移,当前在国内和全世界我们也是对此力加维护的。
让每一个国家知道,不管它盼我们好或盼我们坏,我们将付出任何代价,忍受任何重负,应付任何艰辛,支持任何朋友,反对任何敌人,以确保自由的存在与实现。
这是我们矢志不移的事--而且还不止此。
1/ 12对于那些和我们拥有共同文化和精神传统的老盟邦,我们保证以挚友之诚相待。
只要团结,则在许多合作事业中几乎没有什么是办不到的。
倘若分裂,我们则无可作为,因为我们在意见分歧、各行其是的情况下,是不敢应付强大挑战的。
对于那些我们欢迎其参与自由国家行列的新国家,我们要提出保证,绝不让一种形成的殖民统治消失后,却代之以另一种远为残酷的暴政。
我们不能老是期望他们会支持我们的观点,但我们却一直希望他们能坚决维护他们自身的自由,并应记取,在过去,那些愚蠢得要骑在虎背上以壮声势的人,结果却被虎所吞噬。
对于那些住在布满半个地球的茅舍和乡村中、力求打破普遍贫困的桎梏的人们,我们保证尽最大努力助其自救,不管需要多长时间。
这并非因为共产党会那样做,也不是由于我们要求他们的选票,而是由于那样做是正确的。
肯尼迪就职演讲稿

肯尼迪就职演讲稿肯尼迪就职演讲稿-约翰·肯尼迪今天我们庆祝的不是政党的胜利,而是自由的胜利。
这象征着一个结束,也象征着一个开端;意味着延续也意味着变革。
因为我已在你们和全能的上帝面前,宣读了我们的先辈在170年前拟定的庄严誓言。
现在的世界已大不相同了。
人类的巨手掌握着既能消灭人间的各种贫困,又能毁灭人间的各种生活的力量。
但我们的先辈为之奋斗的那些革命信念,在世界各地仍然有着争论。
这个信念就是人的权利并非来自国家的慷慨,而是来自上帝恩赐。
今天,我们不敢忘记我们是第一次革命的继承者。
让我们的朋友和敌人同样听见我此时此地的讲话:火炬已经传给新一代美国人。
这一代人在本世纪诞生,在战争中受过锻炼,在艰难困苦的和平时期受过陶冶,他们为我国悠久的传统感到自豪——他们不愿目睹或听任我国一向保证的、今天仍在国内外作出保证的人权渐趋毁灭。
让每个国家都知道——不论它希望我们繁荣还是希望我们衰落一为确保自由的存在和自由的胜利,我们将付出任何代价,承受任何负担,应付任何艰难,支持任何朋友,反抗任何敌人。
这些就是我们的保证——而且还有更多的保证。
对那些和我们有着共同文化和精神渊源的老盟友,我们保证待以诚实朋友那样的忠诚。
我们如果团结一致,就能在许多合作事业中无往不胜:我们如果分歧对立,就会一事无成——因为我们不敢在争吵不休、四分五裂时迎接强大的挑战。
对那些我们欢迎其加入到自由行列中来的新国家,我们恪守我们的誓言:决不让一种更为残酷的暴-政来取代一种消失的殖民统治。
我们并不总是指望他们会支持我们的观点。
但我们始终希望看到他们坚强地维护自己的自由——而且要记住,在历史上,凡愚蠢地狐假虎威者,终必葬身虎口。
对世界各地身居茅舍和乡村,为摆脱普遍贫困而斗争的人们,我们保证尽最大努力帮助他们自立,不管需要花多长时间——之所以这样做,并不是因为共-产-党可能正在这样做,也不是因为我们需要他们的选票,而是因为这样做是正确的。
自由社会如果不能帮助众多的穷人,也就无法挽救少数富人。
肯尼迪竞选总统演讲稿

今天,我站在这里,怀揣着满腔的热情和坚定的信念,向你们表达我竞选美国总统的决心。
在此,我要感谢你们的关注和支持,正是你们给了我勇气和力量,让我有信心走上这条充满挑战的道路。
各位同胞们,我们伟大的美国正处在历史的转折点上。
过去几十年,我们的国家取得了举世瞩目的成就,但同时也面临着诸多挑战。
贫富差距、种族歧视、环境污染、恐怖主义等问题日益严重,这些问题已经成为我们国家前进道路上的拦路虎。
作为美国人,我们有责任携手共进,为我们的后代创造一个更加美好的未来。
在此,我要向大家阐述我的竞选纲领,这是我们国家未来发展的蓝图,也是我为之奋斗的目标。
一、缩小贫富差距,实现社会公平我国当前贫富差距较大,这严重影响了社会的和谐稳定。
作为总统,我将采取以下措施:1. 加大对低收入家庭的扶持力度,提高最低工资标准,确保人民群众的基本生活需求得到满足。
2. 优化税收制度,提高高收入者的税收负担,降低低收入者的税收负担,实现税收的公平分配。
3. 实施教育改革,提高教育质量,让每个人都有接受优质教育的机会,从根本上缩小贫富差距。
二、消除种族歧视,促进民族团结种族歧视是我国社会的一大毒瘤,严重损害了国家的形象和人民的感情。
作为总统,我将坚决打击种族歧视现象,促进民族团结:1. 制定和实施《反种族歧视法》,明确种族歧视的界定和处罚措施。
2. 加强对执法部门的监督,确保执法公正,消除种族歧视。
3. 开展民族团结教育,提高全民族的民族认同感和归属感。
三、加强环境保护,实现可持续发展环境污染已经成为我国面临的严峻挑战。
作为总统,我将致力于加强环境保护,实现可持续发展:1. 制定和实施《环境保护法》,严格环境执法,加大对污染企业的处罚力度。
2. 推广清洁能源,减少对化石能源的依赖,降低温室气体排放。
3. 倡导绿色生活方式,提高全民环保意识,共同守护我们的家园。
四、坚决打击恐怖主义,维护国家安全恐怖主义是威胁国家安全和人民生命财产安全的一大隐患。

约翰·肯尼迪就职中文优秀演说稿

约翰·肯尼迪就职中文优秀演说稿我们今天不是祝贺党派的胜利,而是参加自由的庆典:它象征着一个开始——也是一个结束;它代表换代——也是更新。
因为在你们和全能的上帝面前,我已经宣布了一百七十四年前我们祚告诫这同一个庄严的誓言。
现在的世界发生巨大的变化。
人类用自己的死亡之手握住了荡尽所有人间贫困和所有人类生命的势力。
然而,我们祚这战斗的这同一个信念,仍然围绕着地球在争论——这个信念就是:人类的权利并非政府的慷慨施舍,而是上帝的手赠送。
今天,我们不敢忘记我们是独立的后嗣。
让这个词从这个时刻,这个地点传给朋友,也传给敌人。
这个火把已经传给了新的一代美国人——他们诞生在这个国度,经历过战争的锻炼,又接受了一个艰苦、严峻的和平时期的考验;他们为自己继承的悠久传统自豪;他们不愿意目睹或容忍那些人类权利无休无止的躁蹭。
正是为了这些权利,这个国家一直在献身;也正是为了这些权利,我们今天在国内、在世界各地还在继续献身;也正是为了这些权利,我们今天在国内,在世界各地还在继续献身。
让每一个国家都知道,不论它是祝福我们,还是诅咒我们,我们将不惜任何代价、肩负任何重担、迎对任何艰难、支援任何朋友、反抗任何敌人,以保障自由的主权和胜利!这就是我们的保证,而且不仅如此:——对那些分享其文化、精神血统的昔日盟国,我们保证是他们忠实朋友。
团结起来我们在合作探险的广阔天地里就无所不能;一旦分裂,我们则将一事无成,因为在争吵与离异中,我们就不敢面对强有力的挑战。
——对那些我们欢迎加入自由行列的新独立国家,我们保证:决不允许殖民统治刚刚死亡,就又被一位变本加厉的专制暴君代替!我们并不总是期待着看到他们支持我们的观点,但是,我们将永远希望看见他们坚决维护自己的自由,并且记住:在以往,凡是愚蠢地骑在虎背上追求权力的人,无不葬身虎腹……——对我们国家南部的姐妹共和国,我们提出特别保证:把我们善意的词句变成善意的行动,在一个争取进步的联盟里,帮助自由人民共国和自由政府斩断贫穷的锁链。
肯尼迪就职演说稿

肯尼迪就职演说稿尊敬的美国人民:我很荣幸站在这里,成为美国的总统,我认为这是我人生中最重要的时刻之一。
我和我的政府将要接手管治这个伟大的国家,我发誓要展示出最高的领导能力和激励精神,奉献给美国人民,为了我们共同的未来而努力。

我们的经济呈现出疲弱的趋势,失业率居高不下,许多人无家可归和食不果腹。
我们的国内和外交政策也面临着重大的威胁,我们的安全和自由受到了威胁。
但是,我们不会屈服于这些困难。
我们不会向这些威胁低头。
我们不会让这些问题阻碍我们前进的道路。
相反,我们将使用我们的最佳技能和才能,解决这些问题,改变我们的命运,创造一个更加繁荣,更加和平,更加公正的未来。

第18讲肯尼迪总统就职演说
——Inaugural Address of John F. Kennedy
主讲人廖赐仰
Now the trumpet summons us again- not as a call to bear arms, though
arms we need- not as a call to battle, though embattled we are-but a
call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle, year in and year
out, rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation- a struggle against the
common enemies of man: tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself.
Can we forge against these enemies a grand and global alliance, North and South, East and West that can assure a more fruitful life for all
mankind? Will you join in that historic effort?
In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I
do not shrink from this responsibility- I welcome it. I do not believe
that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it-and the glow from
that fire can truly light the world. And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you-ask what you can do for your country.
My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you,
but what together we can do for the freedom of man.
Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world , ask of us here the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which
we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward, with
history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land
we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on
earth God’s work must truly be our own.
1961年1月20日
……
现在,号角已再次吹响--不是召唤我们拿起武器,虽然我们需要武器;不是召唤我们去作战,虽然我们严阵以待。
它召唤我们为迎接黎明而肩负起漫长斗争的重
任,年复一年,从希望中得到欢乐,在磨难中保持耐性,对付人类共同的敌人¬--
专制、贫穷、疾病和战争本身。
为反对这些敌人,确保人类更为丰裕的生活,我们能够组成一个包括东西南北各
方的全球大联盟吗?你们愿意参加这一历史性的努力吗?
在漫长的世界历史中,只有少数几代人在自由处于最危急的时刻被赋予保卫自由的责任。
我不会推卸这一责任,我欢迎这一责任。
我不相信我们中间有人想同其
他人或其他时代的人交换位置。
我们为这一努力所奉献的精力、信念和忠诚,将
照亮我们的国家和所有为国效劳的人,而这火焰发出的光芒定能照亮全世界。
因此,美国同胞们,不要问国家能为你们做些什么、而要问你们能为国家做些什
么。
全世界的公民们,不要问美国将为你们做些什么,而要问我们共同能为人类的
自由做些什么。
最后,不论你们是美国公民还是其他国家的公民,你们应要求我们献出我们同样要求于你们的高度的力量和牺牲。
问心无愧是我们唯一可靠的奖赏,历史是我们
行动的最终裁判,让我们走向前去,引导我们所热爱的国家。
我们祈求上帝的福
佑和帮助,但我们知道,确切地说,上帝在尘世的工作必定是我们自己的工作。
