[哈佛校长的演讲]Goodbyeandgoodluck
Today, I speak from this podium a final time as your
president. As I depart, I want to thank all of you -
students, faculty, alumni and staff - with whom I have
been privileged to work over these past years. Some of us
have had our disagreements, but I know that which unites
us transcends that which divides us.
今天，我将以校长的身份，最后一次在这个讲台上演讲。即
将离任前，我要感谢诸位学生、教师、校友和员工，而且非常荣
幸在过去的 5 年里能与你们共事。我们中的一些人意见不尽相
同， 但是，我知道，我们的共识远远超越分歧。
Some things look different to me than they did five
years ago. The world that today’s Harvard’s graduates
are entering is a profoundly different one than the world
administrators entered.
在我看来，现在于 5 年前不同了。今天的哈佛毕业生正在进
入的世界和管理人员当年所进入的世界相比已是大相径庭了。
It is a world where opportunities have never been
greater for those who know how to teach children to read,
or those who know how to distribute financial risk; never
greater for those who understand the cell and the pixel;
never greater for those who can master, and navigate
1
between, legal codes, faith traditions, computer
platforms, political viewpoints.
现今世界，机遇对于这些人来说是空前的：他们知道如何教
子女阅读；他们知道如何组合投资；他们懂得【计算机科学】 基
本存储单元和像素概念；他们能掌握各种法典、传统信仰、计算
机平台、政治观点并在其中游刃有余。
It is also a world where some are left further and
further behind - those who are not educated, those
trapped in poverty and violence, those for whom equal
opportunity is just a hollow phrase.
同时，现今世界，一些人越来越落后于时代。这些人没受过
教育、深陷于贫穷和暴力、平等机遇对他们而言，仅是一句空
话。
Scientific and technological advances are enabling us
to comprehend the furthest reaches of the cosmos, the
most basic constituents of matter, and the miracle of
life.
科技进步正在使我们能够探索宇宙的边陲、物质最基本的成
分及生命的奇迹。
At the same time, today, the actions, and inaction,
of human beings imperil not only life on the planet, but
the very life of the planet.
2
与此同时，今天，人类所做的及没能做到的事情，不仅危害
到这个星球上的生命，也危害到该星球的寿命。
Globalization is making the world smaller, faster and
richer. Still, 9/11, avian flu, and Iran remind us that a
smaller, faster world is not necessarily a safer world.
全球化正在使地球变得愈来愈小、愈来愈快和愈来愈富有。
尽管如此，9/11、禽流感及伊朗提醒我们，更小更快的世界决不
意味着其更安全。
Our world is bursting with knowledge - but
desperately in need of wisdom. Now, when sound bites are
getting shorter, when instant messages crowd out essays,
and when individual lives grow more frenzied, college
graduates capable of deep reflection are what our world
needs.
我们正处于一个知识爆炸的世界之中，不过，迫切需要智
慧。现在，在（新闻采访的）原声摘要播出变得愈来愈短，即时
信息淘汰了杂记文，个人生活变得如痴如狂之际，这个世界还是
需要能够深思的大学生。
For all these reasons I believed - and I believe even
more strongly today - in the unique and irreplaceable
mission of universities.
考虑到这些理由，我过去信仰，而今天甚至更加强烈地信仰
大学独特的、无可取代的使命。
