[00:00.45]President Levin, thank you very much. 非常感謝，萊文校長。 [00:03.24]Dean Brodhead, fellows of the Yale Corporation, fellow Yale parents, families, and graduates: 布羅德黑德院長，耶魯董事會的全體成員，耶魯畢業(yè)生的家長們，各位畢業(yè)生們： [00:10.03]It's a special privilege to receive this honorary degree. 獲得這個榮譽學(xué)位讓我感覺非常榮幸。 [00:15.02]I was proud 33 years ago to receive my first Yale degree. I'm even prouder that in your eyes I've earned this one. 我很自豪，在33年前獲得了第一個耶魯學(xué)位。而今天，在你們面前獲得這一榮譽學(xué)位讓我更加驕傲無比。 [00:24.23]I congratulate my fellow honorees. I'm pleased to share this honor with such a distinguished group. 祝賀你們，與我同獲殊榮的人們。我很高興能和如此杰出的團體共享這一榮譽， [00:31.46]I'm particularly pleased to be here with my friend, the former of Mexico. 尤其是能和我的朋友，墨西哥前總統(tǒng)在一起分享。 [00:37.30]I congratulate all the parents who are here. It's a glorious day when your child graduates from college. 我要恭喜所有在座的家長們：恭喜你們辛勤栽培后享受收獲的日子， [00:43.55]It's a great day for you; it's a great day for your wallet. 也是你們錢包解放的大好日子！ [00:47.42]Most important, congratulations to the class of 2001. 最重要的是，我要恭喜201屆的耶魯畢業(yè)生們： [00:51.49]To those of you who received honors, awards, and distinctions, I say, well done. 對于那些表現(xiàn)杰出、獲得各種獎項和榮譽的同學(xué)，我要說，你們真棒！ [01:00.37]And to the C students I say, you, too, can be President of the United States. 對于那些C等生，我要說，你們將來也可以當(dāng)總統(tǒng)！ [01:07.14]A Yale degree is worth a lot, as I often remind Dick Cheney who studied here, but left a little early. 耶魯學(xué)位價值不菲。我時常這樣提醒迪克·切尼（美國布什政府時期的副總統(tǒng)），他也曾在耶魯就讀，只是過早輟學(xué)了。 [01:15.19]So now we know—if you graduate from Yale, you become President. If you drop out, you get to be Vice President. 所以我想提醒整就讀于耶魯?shù)妮份穼W(xué)子，如果你們從耶魯順利畢業(yè)，你們也許可以當(dāng)上總統(tǒng)’但如果你們中途輟學(xué)，那么你們就只能當(dāng)副總統(tǒng)了。 [01:23.22]I appreciate so very much the chance to say a few words on this occasion. 我很榮幸能有機會在這個場合發(fā)表演講。 [01:28.26]I know Yale has a tradition of having no commencement speaker. I also know that you've carved out a single exception. 我知道，耶魯向來不邀請畢業(yè)典禮演講人，但也有例外。
