You may probably can not recall the names of many earlierbest sellers,and you may probably would not be interest in reading them. But thegreat are never out modeled by the movement of thought or the shifting winds ofopinion .
Third ,great books are the most instructive. This follows the fact thatthey are original communications. They contain what cannot be found in otherbooks. Whether you ultimately agree or disagree what they say. They are theprimary teachers of mankind. They have made basic contribution to human right.

After being cheated of the meat by the fox, the crow stood on the branchand scolded for three days and three nights.
Since then, crows are very wary of foxes, afraid of being cheatedagain.
One day, the crow found a piece of meat. It took the meat in its mouth andstopped on the branch to rest.
He was very alert. He looked left and right for fear that the meat would becheated by the sly fox again.
At this time, the fox is humming a little song in the walk, smelling thesmell of meat, followed the fragrance.
After a while, he came to the tree where the crow stopped.
When the fox saw that it was a crow, he was very happy. He thought tohimself: This crow is very stupid. Last time he said that his singing was good,he cheated the meat away.
It looks like another piece of meat is coming this time.
Seeing that it was a fox, the crow immediately hung the meat on the branchand asked warily, "brother fox, I havent seen you for a long time. What are youdoing this time?"
The fox said calmly, "its nothing more than to admit the mistake with thebrother crow."
The crow said angrily, "brother fox, dont be hurt!"
The fox pretended to be a little sad and said, "brother crow, last time Imsorry for you. I lied to you because I was wrong. I deserve to die! This time,you can do whatever you want to do to me!"
The crow said, "then you will return the meat you cheated me lasttime."
When the fox heard this, he was very angry and forced to bear the anger inhis heart and said: "brother crow, I have eaten the meat last time.
I know a place where there is a lot of meat. Its not a long way. I have nostrength. You give me your piece of meat to eat. When I have strength, I willtake two back to you. "
The crow listened happily and said, "well, Ill give you the meat." Then hetook the meat off the branch and gave it to the fox.
The fox ate the meat and said to the crow, "wait, Ill get the meat foryou." With that, the fox left in a hurry.
After a long time, the crow didnt see the fox come back, just suddenlyrealized that he had been cheated again.
but now here's where the bias comes in. our most important institutions, our schools and our workplaces, they are designed mostly for extroverts and for extroverts' need for lots of stimulation. and also we have this belief system right now that i call the new groupthink, which holds that all creativity and all productivity comes from a very oddly gregarious place.
so if you picture the typical classroom nowadays: when i was going to school, we sat in rows. we sat in rows of desks like this, and we did most of our work pretty autonomously. but nowadays, your typical classroom has pods of desks -- four or five or six or seven kids all facing each other. and kids are working in countless group assignments. even in subjects like math and creative writing, which you think would depend on solo flights of thought, kids are now expected to act as committee members. and for the kids who prefer to go off by themselves or just to work alone, those kids are seen as outliers often or, worse, as problem cases. and the vast majority of teachers reports believing that the ideal student is an extrovert as opposed to an introvert, even though introverts actually get better grades and are more knowledgeable, according to research. (laughter)
The proverb “No pains, no gains” means that you have to make great effortsif you want to achieve success, for nothing but poverty can be obtained withouteffort.
In history, there have been many famous people of great achievements. Youmay claim that they are geniuses. But behind their successes, they have madegreat efforts in carrying out their tasks. Einstein said “Genius is one percentof inspiration and ninety-nine percent of perspiration.” He had been workinghard for many years before he finally worked out his theory of relativity.Thomas Edison experienced countless failures before he finally invented theelectric bulb. Wang Junxia was able to win the world championship of longdistance race only because she had many years of hard training. Therefore,diligence is the key to success. Doubtless hard work promises fruitful result.Everyone is awarded the right to work hard in order to reach his goal.Apparently, diligence is necessary to success. Happiness is nearly always areward for hard work.
On the other hand, idleness is believed to be the root of all evil. Anyonewho habitually likes idling but desires everything is daydreaming. We should beaware that if we dream away our precious time, when we wake up, it may be toolate for us to achieve anything. So, as college students, we should never stopworking hard so that we will remain successful in the future competitions.
Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will “Where there is a will, there isway” is an old proverb which almost everyone knows, but not all understand it sowell.
Actually, it means that if you are really resolved to do something, nomatter how difficult it might be, never give up. In fact, strong will is a kindof good quality which successful people should own. A great man is always onewho has a firm resolution and an inflexible spirit.
One will never succeed all his life without a firm will to get the finalvictory. As a rule, great tasks are accomplished by men of strong will. Forexample, Dr. Sun Yatsen, the founder of the Republic of China, set the Chinesepeople free from the Manchurian rule through a long period of hard struggle.
Many of his attempts failed and many of his followers were killed, but hehad an inflexible spirit and stuck to his cause. Finally, he made the revolutionof 1911 a success. The same is true of men in all walks of life. It is quiteobvious that there is nothing difficult in the world, if you make up your mindto do it, you will certainly accomplish your end. That stands to reason.
So as for students like us, we should have a good attitude towards failure.Facing with difficulties and failures, keep heads up and never give up. Besides,we should make full preparation, though strong will help us overcome thedifficulties, it is not for person who has no preparation.
There is a wonderful word which expresses the most original motions anddesires among human-beings. With solving any kind of imperfections, our worldhas moved ahead. This is the word “innovation” that we cannot afford tolose.
We chicaned every detail of the innovation. Thousands years before, wecreated fire when we took a stone to knock another one. Since Han Dynasty, fourgreat inventions had been created and it is one of the greatest signs that Chinabecome to the ancient civilized country. And nowadays, thousands of software,products, architectures and public facilities have upgraded more than that about100 years ago. So how did these happen? What will you do if you are notsatisfied with your tools anymore? What will you do if old mode cannot afford todevelop in a company? There is no doubt that we should innovate no matter wherewe are and what we do. Not because of the design itself, but actually for itsintended purpose.
If there was no Apple, everyone could not imagine how to contact otherseasily and enjoy a better Internet surfing.
If there was no Microsoft, perhaps we still worked in a dim office andduplicate some troublesome documents. If there was no Newton, and no theory ofgravity, maybe I will win the Nobel Prize like Newton rather than just standinghere. I have heard that three apple changed the world. The first one seducedEve. The second one awakened Newton. The third one was in the hands of SteveJobs. We sort of think the innovation of the world began with apple. I imaginelots of people want to become another Newton or Jobs right now with just onehand to change the world, right? Have the innovation to follow your heart. Itsomehow already reflects what you truly want to become. Everything else issecondary.
Via questioning, we can start to innovate. Via innovating, we can start tocreate better lives. No innovation, no improvement. No improvement, no success.And no success, no civilization. Now, our time is limited, so don't waste itliving someone else's life! Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown outyour own inner voice! Don't let yourself down! It is the innovation that wecannot afford to lose!
有一个美妙的词，表达了人类最原始的运动和欲望。解决任何不完美的问题，我们的世界已经向前发展。这是“创新”这个词，我们不能失去。
我们的每一个细节的创新诡计。几千年前，我们用石头打另一个火，我们生火。自汉代以来，四大发明创造出来，是中国古代文明的伟大标志之一。而如今，数以千计的软件、产品、建筑和公共设施已经超过100年前的升级了。那么这些是怎么发生的呢？如果你不满意你的工具，你会怎么做？如果老模式不能在一个公司中发展，你会做什么？毫无疑问，无论我们在哪里，我们做什么，我们都要创新。不是因为设计本身，而是为了它的目的。
如果没有苹果，每个人都无法想象如何与其他人接触，并享受一个更好的上网冲浪。
如果没有微软，也许我们在一个昏暗的办公室工作，并重复一些麻烦的文件。如果没有牛顿，没有理论的引力，也许我会赢得牛顿奖，像诺贝尔，而不是站在这里。我听说三个苹果改变了世界。第一个诱惑了夏娃。二人唤醒了牛顿。第三个是在史蒂夫·乔布斯的手中。我 我想象有很多人想成为另一个牛顿或工作的权利，现在只需要一方面改变世界，对不对？有创新，跟随你的心。它在某种程度上已经反映了你真正想要成为的。其他一切都是次要的。
通过质疑，我们可以开始创新。通过创新，我们可以开始创造更好的生活。没有创新，没有进步。没有进步，没有成功。没有成功，没有文明。现在，我们的时间是有限的，所以不要浪费时间去活别人的生活！不要让别人的意见淹没了你内心的声音！别让自己失望！这是我们不能失去的创新！
beating in the darkness, such as paint, let the darkness of endless fear inthe hearts, but it is still the eastern end of the horizon, no hurry do notdelay a trace of light; squally showers, the wind off revealing the end it'sstill a shiny sky rainbow. eventually at the end of the night, demos will besunny, life it not so?
experienced the baptism of the sky, will be more air out, more blue;experienced suffering setbacks in life, will be more eye-catching shine."western show," wang luo, life is full of legendary, filling the suffering ofhis life, and his life to accept enron's "pain kiss." wandering in the west,wandering in the sand in the sky, like a storm in the olive, with a "demos willbe clear," the faith, dedication to watch their dreams. finally, he returned tomeet not only the clear sky after rain, there was the warm sun, there is thattired swing spring. demos will be clear, is a firm belief, is an optimisticaspiration. like wang luo, difficulties always maintained a positive andoptimistic beliefs, sincere look forward to a better tomorrow, and the fate ofhis feedback, it is the brightest future.
all the rain will stop, all the difficulties are temporary, and thedarkness will not always be around, eventually there will be the last day. butmany people are intimidated by the minds of wind and rain, gave up the right togreet the light. xiang yu defeated, empty since the sigh, "do not die when theadverse come zhui", who are familiar with "something unexpected victory ordefeat military strategists, including shame shame a man named ren." bad luckdid not last forever, nor always a failure. however, this "force nukiyama comegas guise" of the hero has forgotten demos will be sunny, storm, rainbow,suicide in the wujiang river edge, left us not only a deep sigh, there is heavythinking.
one philosopher said: do you mind decide how far you go. that holds a"demos will be clear," the belief, like the dark, looked up saw the star, whilenot bright, but enough to give us the courage to move on. index finger oncewrote, "i believe the future", brought us to life's tenacity and toughness. insuch a dark era, the poet is suffering caused by mad, still have the demos willbe clear conviction that flock to the horizon with your fingers the wave.whether beating in the darkness, such as ink, or thunder and lightning, and thetotal dissipation of the day, everything is pass by and everything willpass.
It is a matter of course that industry will bring us success, wealth andgood luck. I am sure that a hard-working person can always succeed in the workwhich he wants to do. This is unchangeable truth.
Idleness is the opposite of industry. It is the source of all evil. An idleman only enjoys playing and making pleasures. That he is doomed to failure is ofno doubt. We should not follow his example.
Dozens of years ago, as the famous Negro Martin Luther King shouted to theAmerica, “I have a dream, I have a dream”, did he notice that his declaration offreedom would be the light to those who fights for people’s liberty? And, as wecan see, his dream made his legend, in other word dream makes people to begreat. Right now I just wonder in the future whether I could be somebody likeMartin Luther King who fought for people’s freedom or somebody like Bill Gateswho donated all his fortune to help poor people or I’ll be like most people tobe a nobody who gets a ordinary job and forms a family, living peacefully therest life. No matter what kind of above, the point is no matter who you are, nomatter where you are, please always have a dream. And this dream will make youget power to get progress; this dream will show you the direction like thebeacon to the ship on the sea in the night.
From ancient time to the recent years, we see too many famous successfulpeople like Confucius in China and Dr. King, as mentioned above, in the UnitedStates. Confucius made great influence to Chinese culture by his Confucianism,and Dr. King push the progress to the liberty of the blacks in the America. Theyboth made great contribution to their country, and how they made this? Part ofthe reason why, I think, is that they had dreams that care about the people inthe world. And more important, in my opinion of view, they throw their entirelives to make their dreams come true. That means they always keep learning,learning from books and learning from living lives. And this is what we need tolearn: have a dream in mind and keep pursuing on it.
Through this we see that a dream is something we can make it come true byour hard working, and this is what a dream is different from a reverie. See thismeans we need to take action, if we really have a good dream. We need study wellin the school, we need focus on the direction of our dream, and we need toremind ourselves from time to time: don’t forget our dreams. Maybe when othersare playing basketball, but you are at the desk to figure out the difficult mathexercises; maybe when others are watching TV series, but you are still on thebooks which you need in your composition. All these will be worth when you getto the top of your dreaming mountain. As the saying says, “mountain’s high, butman makes the peak”。 So finally just let wish good luck to those who always havea dream in mind and keeps steps on it.
Everyone knows that diligence is the key to success. As a proverb goes: “Diligence is the mother of success.” Diligence means working hard andpersistently.
All famous people of great achievements are examples of diligence. They allowe their success to hard work. Without constant efforts, no one can expect tosucceed in doing anything great. Thomas Edison kept on working hard for a longtime before he was able to invent he electric light. Madame Curie worked hard inthe poor conditions for many years before she finally discovered radium. Somepeople may attribute success to good luck. But good luck favors those who arewell prepared and diligent people who can make use of it. So idleness can onlylead to poverty. If you do not devote yourself to your study and work, you canhardly make a living, let alone make some accomplishments.
As high school students, we must be aware that the only way to success ishard work. We must concentrate our attention on our studies, and make full useof our precious time, in order to meet the fierce challenges in the futurecompetitions. It is certain that our future success will only rest on ourconstant efforts. As a proverb goes: “Only by working hard can we reap a bumperharvest.”
the duality of money has been puzzling people since its first the one hand, clean money can sweeten your life, help you succeed and be yourlifelong faithful companion. on the other hand, dirty money may posion yourmind, ruin your happiness and discard you suddenly as a false friend.
the market economy tells us that everyone should earn a living by sellingsomething. professors sell their knowledge, workers sell their labor, farmerssell their produce. money now appears more powerful than anything else anddrives people crazy. the temptation of money often challenges one’s honor. weare not ashamed to make more money to have a better life by our sweat.however,there is a widespread concern that millionaires become the heroes nomatter whether they make any contribution to our society. some people trydesperately to make big money, which, more often than not, end up withdegradation, corruption and crime.
though money is indispensable to our life, dirty money may drag us intohell. there are many things no money can buy. we will keep our honor intact atany cost because it is our soul. love of money is the root of all evil. formyself, i would rather die than dishonor myself for money.
自从钱存在的第一天开始，对于钱的定义一直令人费解。一方面，干净钱能变甜你的生活，帮助你取得成功，� 另一方面，脏钱可能破坏你的幸福和抛弃你突然作为一个虚假的朋友。
市场经济告诉我们，每个人都应该谋生卖东西。教授出售他们的知识，出售他们的劳动工人，农民出售他们的农产品。钱现在看来更强大的比其他任何事情都和驱动器的人疯了。金钱的诱惑常常挑战一个人的荣誉。我们并不感到羞耻赚更多的钱有一个更美好的生活我们的汗水。然而，人们普遍关切的是，成为百万富翁的英雄，无论他们做出任何贡献，我们的社会。有些人试图拼命赚钱，而更多的，往往不是最终退化，腐败和犯罪。
虽然钱是必不可少的，我们的生活，脏钱可能拖累我们带入地狱。有很多事情没有钱可以买到。我们将继续我们的荣誉完整不惜任何代价，因为这是我们的灵魂。爱钱是万恶之源。我自己，我宁可死比侮辱自己的钱。
Hello everyone! My name is, a student fromcollege. I am glad to give you a speech about my university. The title of my speech is My college, my home.
Last September I left my hometown with heavy baggage and after a journey of ten hours, I came to this dream campus with great expectation and excitement.
I was deeply attracted by the elegant environment of our campus the moment I stepped into the university. Straight, wide roads enjoyed the shade and shelter provided by lordly, green trees. Ancient buildings of great refinement enjoyed the company of flocks of birds flying and singing overhead. Scrolls of warm welcome greeted me and volunteers with smiles came to my help. My heart was filled with warmth. Yeah, this is the place where I will spend 4 years and this place will be my home!
Whenever I recall the past days, so many thoughts are flooding in my mind. But what impressed me most is a night when I got a stomachache during the first days. I had to turn to the aunts in charge of our dormitory for help. They were so friendly and warm-hearted. They gave me the pills and reminded me of having more hot water. I recovered soon and I thanked them from the bottom of my heart because they brought me the warmth of home.
Our university is a famous academic center. The teaching staff are all learned professors. Many of them are world-wide known for their wide range of knowledge and charming personality. I respect my teachers! I admire my teachers! I love my teachers! Various activities are carried here. They not only bring me happiness but also improve myself. I meet with a lot of classmates and make a large number of friends. When I feel upset, the will give me a hand; when I am happy, I will share with them. The library has a large collection of books and I always lose myself in it. I believe they will benefit me a lot and are to broaden the roads of my future.
I love you,University! You are just a place which gives me warmth and strengths! You are my home!
Ladies and Gentle men. I am honored to deliver a speech here about theimportance of working hard. Diligence is vital to our success in the society, asit sharpens the skill you needed to be success and it helps you to stand out inthe crowd. When I was in grade 10, I did not work hard, because I thought schoolwas easy and I didn't have to work hard to get a good grades. I thought I wasquite a genius indeed. However, when I entered grade 11, things start gettingmore and more difficult, and I started to acquire the habit of hard-woking bydoing my homework every night, and preview school materials before schoolstarts. Quite surprisingly, not only did I pass those difficult course, but alsogot a decent mark. Therefore, hard woking is the way to discover what yourpotentials are and use them to your benefit. I would continue to work diligentlyand hopefully to achieve greatness in the future.
Wang Leehom Speech @Berklee College of Music - YouTube
王力宏伯克利音乐学院演讲
I don't know what to say. I didn't know that there would be a podium with a microphone. I thought I would just be singing songs. Not to downplay that, but ...
我不知说什么好了。我不知道这边有一个带麦克风的讲台。我还以为只要唱几首歌就好了。不是说那不重要。
Oh, my goodness, what an honor. I am just so humbled and excited to be here looking out at all of you.
哦，我的老天，多么大的一份荣誉。在这里看着大家，我既诚惶诚恐，又激动万分。
Being back here on campus is ... I feel so proud to have studied here. And ... that's 16 years ago, but ... I used to come to Symphony Hall every weekend and get those rush tickets, the student packs, and watch the Boston Symphony Orchestra perform as often as possible, often by myself.
重新回到这里真的是…我为自己曾在此学习过而感到自豪。已经是16年前了，但是…我以前经常一个人在周末来到交响乐大厅，抢一些所谓的“赶急票”，来欣赏波士顿交响乐团的表演。
And it was one of the highlights of my time here at Berklee, so being here on stage is really unreal. Walking around on campus today was a testament to how far Berklee's come in the last 16 years. It is beautiful, the campus, the facilities. I was walking by the MP&E, the studios, the equipment, the fitness center. We didn't have any of these stuffs. So I guess you guys have been doing a pretty good job. So thank you, and congratulations to that. What a time for the East and West in music, in pop culture.
这是我在伯克利学习生活的众多亮点之一了，所以能来到这个台上实属不易。今天我在校园漫步，感受到了母校在这16年间的变化之大。她太美了，无论是环境还是设施。我还路过MP&E，那些工作室，一些设施，对了还有一个健身中心。我们那会儿可没有这玩意儿。所以校方的努力非常的棒，谢谢你们，也祝贺你们。这是一个东西方在音乐、流行文化中交流的
All of you, music lovers, future musicians, future professional musicians on the stage, and like what Roger just said, it's so important for us to be ambassadors, to be that bridge, to be ambassadors of peace, and breaking down the walls, bringing people together. Last night ... this is an issue that's so close in my heart, because last night in Los Angeles, my dear friend Jackie Chan was the first person ... first Chinese actor ever to win an Oscar, last night! I just want to thank all of you for being here, that's why we make music, is to connect with people.
在座的各位，无论你是音乐发烧友、未来的音乐人，还是未来专业的舞台表演音乐家，就像Roger刚所说的，我们要成为大使，这一点非常重要。我们要成为沟通东西方的桥梁，成为和平的使者，我们要消除阻碍，把人和人连接起来。对了，跟大家说一件很激动人心的事情，昨天晚上在洛杉矶，我的好朋友成龙大� 真的感谢大家今天来到这儿，这也是让我做音乐的原因—把人连接起来。
I've never written a song without loving it myself. So for all of you musicians, always follow your heart and always do what you love. I've definitely ... you know ... never convince yourself that what other people are telling you to do is right if you don't feel like it's right in your heart. As a musician, it just doesn't work.
我对我写的每一首歌都很喜欢，没有不喜欢的。所以，各位音乐人，请跟随自己的心，做自己爱做的事。如果你内心不认可的事情，那么无论别人怎么说，你都别动摇。作为一个音乐人，不这么做是行不通的。
So work like a bull, I guess ... and always have fun. And all the accolades don't mean anything without your friends and your family to share with. So Thank You to them as well for being here together, and always.
最后，像老黄牛一样工作，并且保持快乐。另外，我还想说，如果你不能把这份快乐跟你的朋友、家人分享的话，那么所有的赞美都是没有意义的。所以，我要感谢今天出席典礼的朋友和家人。
