名校勵(lì)志英語(yǔ)演講 第46期:我人生中的三個(gè)故事
And most important, have the courage to follow yourheart and intuition. They somehow already know whatyou truly want to become. Everything else issecondary.
最主要的是，要有跟著自己感覺(jué)和直覺(jué)走的勇氣。無(wú)論如何，感覺(jué)和直覺(jué)早就知道你到底想要成為什么樣的人，其他都是次要的。
When I was young, there was an amazing publicationcalled The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the "bibles" of my generation. It was created by afellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetictouch. This was in the late 60s, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was allmade with typewriters, scissors, and Polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperbackform, 35 years before Google came along. It was idealistic, overflowing with neat tools and greatnotions.
我年輕時(shí)有一本非常好的刊物，叫《全球概覽》，這是我們那代人的寶書(shū)之一，創(chuàng)辦人斯圖爾特·布蘭德，就住在離這兒不遠(yuǎn)的門(mén)洛帕克市。他用詩(shī)一般的語(yǔ)言把刊物辦得生動(dòng)活潑。那是20世紀(jì)60年代末，那時(shí)候還沒(méi)有個(gè)人電腦和桌面印刷系統(tǒng)，全靠打字機(jī)、剪刀和寶麗萊照相機(jī)。它就像一種紙質(zhì)的谷歌，卻比谷歌早問(wèn)世35年。這份刊物太完美了，查閱手段齊備、構(gòu)思不凡。
Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had runits course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back coverof their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might findyourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: "Stay Hungry. StayFoolish." It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I'vealways wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.
斯圖爾特和他的同事們出了好幾期《全球概覽》，直到最后辦不下去時(shí)，他們出了最后一期。那是20世紀(jì)70年代中期，我也就是你們現(xiàn)在的年紀(jì)。最后一期的封底上是一張清晨鄉(xiāng)間小路的照片，就是那種愛(ài)冒險(xiǎn)的人等在那兒搭便車(chē)的那種小路。照片下面寫(xiě)到:好學(xué)如饑、謙卑若愚。那是他們停刊前的告別辭。好學(xué)若饑，謙卑若愚。這也是我一直想做到的。眼下正值諸位大學(xué)畢業(yè)、開(kāi)始新生活之際，我同樣希望大家能做到：
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
好學(xué)若饑，謙卑若愚。
Thank you all very much.
謝謝大家。
