第一篇：富蘭克林羅斯福就職演講

PresidentHoover, Mr.Chief Justice, my friends:

This is a day of national consecration.And I am certain that on this day my fellow Americansexpectthat on my inductioninto the Presidency, I will address them with a candor and a decision whichthe present situation of our people impels.This is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly.Nor needwe shrink from honestly facing conditions in our country today.This great Nation will endure,as it has endured, will revive and will prosper.So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief thatthe only thing we have to fear is fear itself nameless,unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts toconvert retreatinto advance.In every dark hour of our national life, a leadership of frankness and of vigorhas met with that understanding and support of the people themselves whichis essential to victory.And I am convinced that you will againgive that support to leadership in these critical days.In such a spirit on my part and on yours we face our common difficulties.They concern, thankGod, only material things.Values have shrunk to fantastic levels.taxes have risen.our abilityto pay has fallen.government of all kinds is faced by serious curtailment of income.themeans of exchange are frozenin the currents of trade.the withered leaves of industrialenterprise lie on every side.farmers find no markets for their produce.and the savings ofmany years in thousands of families are gone.More important, a host of unemployed citizensface the grim problem of existence, and an equally greatnumber toil with little return.Only afoolish optimist can deny the dark realities of the moment.And yet our distress comes from no failure of substance.We are stricken by no plague oflocusts.Compared with the perils which our forefathers conquered, because they believed andwere not afraid, we have stillmuch to be thankful for.Nature still offers her bounty andhuman efforts have multiplied it.Plenty is at our doorstep, but a generous use of itlanguishes in the very sight of the supply.Primarily, this is because the rulers of the exchange of mankind's goods have failed,through their own stubbornness and their ownincompetence, have admitted their failure, and haveabdicated.Practices of the unscrupulous money changers stand indicted in the court of publicopinion, rejected by the hearts and minds of men.True,they have tried.But their efforts havebeen cast in the pattern of an outworntradition.Faced by failure of credit, they haveproposed only the lending of more money.Stripped of the lure of profit by whichto induce our people to follow their false leadership, they have resorted to exhortations, pleading tearfullyfor restored confidence.They only know the rules of a generation of selfseekers.They have no vision, and when there is no vision the people perish.Yes, the money changers have fled from their high seats in the temple of our civilization.Wemay now restore that temple to the ancient truths.The measure of that restoration lies in theextent to which we apply social values more noble thanmere monetary profit.Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money.it lies in the joy of achievement, in thethrill of creative effort.The joy, the moral stimulation of work no longer must be forgotten inthe mad chase of evanescentprofits.These dark days, my friends, will be worth all they costus if they teach us that our true destiny is not to be ministered unto but tominister to ourselves, to our fellow men.Recognition of that falsity of material wealth as the standard of success goes hand in handwith the abandonment of the false belief that public office and high political position are to bevalued only by the standards of pride of place and personal profit.and there mustbe an end to a conduct in banking and in business which too oftenhas given to a sacred trust the likeness of callous and selfish wrongdoing.Small wonder that confidence languishes, for itthrives only on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligations, on faithful protection, andon unselfish performance.withoutthem it cannot live.Restoration calls, however, not for changes in ethics alone.This Nation is asking for action, and action now.Our greatest primary task is toput people to work.This is nounsolvable problem if we face itwisely and courageously.It can be accomplished in part by direct recruiting by theGovernment itself, treating the task as we would treatthe emergency of a war, but at thesame time, through this employment, accomplishing great greatlyneeded projects to stimulate and reorganize the use of our greatnatural resources.Hand in hand with that we must frankly recognize the overbalance of populationin our industrial centers and, by engaging on a national scale in a redistribution, endeavor to providea better use of the land for those best fitted for the land.Yes, the task can be helped by definite efforts to raise the values of agricultural products, andwith this the power to purchase the output of our cities.It can be helped by preventingrealistically the tragedy of the growing loss through foreclosure of our smallhomes and ourfarms.It can be helped by insistence thatthe Federal, the State, and the local governmentsact forthwith on the demand thattheir cost be drastically reduced.It can be helped by theunifying of relief activities which today are often scattered,uneconomical, unequal.It can behelped by national planning for and supervisionof all forms of transportation and ofcommunications and other utilities thathave a definitely public character.There are manyways in which it can be helped, but it cannever be helped by merely talking aboutit.We must act.We must act quickly.And finally, in our progress towards a resumption of work, we require twosafeguards against a return of the evils of the old order.There must be a strict supervision of all banking andcredits and investments.There must be anend to speculation with other people's money.Andthere must be provision for an adequate but sound currency.These, my friends, are the lines of attack.I shall presently urge upon a new Congress inspecial session detailed measures for their fulfillment, and I shallseek the immediate assistance of the 48 States.Through this program of action we address ourselves to putting our own national house inorder and making income balance outgo.Our international trade relations, thoughvastly important, are in point of time, and necessity, secondary tothe establishment of a sound national economy.Ifavor, as a practical policy, the putting of firstthings first.I shall spare no effort torestore world trade by international economic readjustment.but the emergency athome cannot wait on that accomplishment.The basic thoughtthat guides these specific means of national recovery is notnationally narrowly nationalistic.It is the insistence, as a firstconsideration, upon the interdependenceof the various elements in and parts of the United States of America arecognition of the old and permanently importantmanifestation of the American spirit of the pioneer.It is the wayto recovery.It is the immediate way.Itis the strongest assurance that recovery will endure.In the field of world policy, I would dedicate this Nationto the policy of the good neighbor: theneighbor who resolutely respects himself and, because he does so, respects the rights ofothers.the neighbor who respects his obligations and respects the sanctity of his agreementsin and with a world of neighbors.If I read the temper of our people correctly, we now realize, as we have never realized before,our interdependence on each other.that we can not merely take, but we must give as well.that if we are to goforward, we must move as a trained and loyal army willing to sacrifice forthe good of a common discipline, because without such discipline no progress can be made,no leadership becomes effective.We are, I know, ready and willing to submit our lives and our property to such discipline,because it makes possible a leadership which aims atthe larger good.This, I propose to offer,pledging that the larger purposes will bind uponus, bind upon us all as a sacred obligationwith a unity of duty hithertoevoked only in times of armed strife.With this pledge taken, I assume unhesitatingly the leadership of this great army of ourpeople dedicated to a disciplined attack upon our common problems.Action in this image, action to this end is feasible under the form of government which wehave inherited from our ancestors.Our Constitution is sosimple, so practicalthat it is possible always tomeet extraordinary needs by changes in emphasis and arrangement without loss ofessential form.That is why our constitutional system has proved itself the most superblyenduring political mechanism the modern worldhas ever seen.It has met every stress of vast expansion of territory, of foreign wars, of bitter internal strife,of world relations.And it is to be hoped that the normal balance of executive and legislativeauthority may be wholly equal, wholly adequate to meetthe unprecedented task before us.But it may be that anunprecedented demand and need for undelayed actionmay call for temporary departure from that normal balance of public procedure.I am prepared under my constitutional duty torecommend the measures that a strickennation in the midst of a stricken world may require.These measures, or such other measuresas the Congress may build out of its experience and wisdom, I shall seek, within myconstitutional authority, to bring to speedy adoption.But, in the event that the Congress shall failto take one of these two courses, in the eventthat the national emergency is still critical, I shallnot evade the clear course of duty that will thenconfront me.I shall ask the Congress for the one remaining instrument to meet the crisisbroad Executive power to wage a war against the emergency, as great as the power thatwould be given to me if we were in fact invaded by a foreign foe.For the trust reposed in me, I will return the courage and the devotion that befitthe time.I can do no less.We face the arduous days thatlie before us in the warm courage of nationalunity.with the clear consciousness of seeking old and precious moralvalues.with the clean satisfactionthat comes from the stern performance of duty by old and young alike.We aim at the assurance ofa rounded, a permanent national life.We do not distrust the the future of essential democracy.The people of the United Stateshave not failed.In their need they have registered a mandate thatthey want direct, vigorousaction.They have asked for discipline and directionunder leadership.They have made me thepresent instrument of their wishes.Inthe spirit of the gift I take it.In this dedication Inthis dedication of a Nation, we humbly ask the blessing of God.May He protect each and every one of us.May He guide me in the days to come.

胡佛總統(tǒng)，首席法官先生，朋友們： 今天，對(duì)我們的國(guó)家來(lái)說(shuō)，是一個(gè)神圣的日子．我肯定，同胞們都期待我在 就任總統(tǒng)時(shí)，會(huì)像我國(guó)目前形勢(shì)所要求的那樣，坦率而果斷地向他們講話．現(xiàn)在 正是坦白、勇敢地說(shuō)出實(shí)話，說(shuō)出全部實(shí)話的最好時(shí)刻．我們不必畏首畏尾，不 老老實(shí)實(shí)面對(duì)我國(guó)今天的情況．這個(gè)偉大的國(guó)家會(huì)一如既往地堅(jiān)持下去，它會(huì)復(fù) 興和繁榮起來(lái)．因此，讓我首先表明我的堅(jiān)定信念：我們唯一不得不害怕的就是 害怕本身--一種莫名其妙、喪失理智的、毫無(wú)根據(jù)的恐懼，它把人轉(zhuǎn)退為進(jìn)所需 的種種努力化為泡影．凡在我國(guó)生活陰云密布的時(shí)刻，坦率而有活力的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)都得 到過人民的理解和支持，從而為勝利準(zhǔn)備了必不可少的條件．我相信，在目前危 急時(shí)刻，大家會(huì)再次給予同樣的支持． 我和你們都要以這種精神，來(lái)面對(duì)我們共同的困難．感謝上帝，這些困難只 是物質(zhì)方面的．價(jià)值難以想象地貶縮了；課稅增加了；我們的支付能力下降了； 各級(jí)政府面臨著嚴(yán)重的收入短缺；交換手段在貿(mào)易過程中遭到了凍結(jié)；工業(yè)企業(yè) 枯萎的落葉到處可見； 農(nóng)場(chǎng)主的產(chǎn)品找不到銷路； 千家萬(wàn)戶多年的積蓄付之東流． 更重要的是，大批失業(yè)公民正面臨嚴(yán)峻的生存問題，還有大批公民正以艱辛 的勞動(dòng)換取微薄的報(bào)酬．只有愚蠢的樂天派會(huì)否認(rèn)當(dāng)前這些陰暗的現(xiàn)實(shí)． 但是，我們的苦惱決不是因?yàn)槿狈ξ镔Y．我們沒有遭到什么蝗蟲的災(zāi)害．我 們的先輩曾以信念和無(wú)畏一次次轉(zhuǎn)危為安，比起他們經(jīng)歷過的險(xiǎn)阻，我們?nèi)源罂?感到欣慰．大自然仍在給予我們恩惠，人類的努力已使之倍增．富足的情景近在 咫尺，但就在我們見到這種 情景的時(shí)候，寬裕的生活卻悄然離去．這主要是因 為主宰人類物資交換的統(tǒng)治者們失敗了，他們固執(zhí)己見而又無(wú)能為力，因而已經(jīng) 認(rèn)定失敗了，并撒手不管了．貪得無(wú)厭的貨幣兌換商的種種行徑．將受到輿論法 庭的起訴，將受到人類心靈理智的唾棄． 是的，他們是努力過，然而他們用的是一種完全過時(shí)的方法．面對(duì)信貸的失 敗，他們只是提議借出更多的錢．沒有了當(dāng)誘餌引誘 人民追隨他們的錯(cuò)誤領(lǐng)導(dǎo) 的金錢，他們只得求助于講道，含淚祈求人民重新給予他們信心．他們只知自我 追求者們的處世規(guī)則．他們沒有眼光，而沒有眼光的人是要滅亡的． 如今，貨幣兌換商已從我們文明廟宇的高處落荒而逃．我們要以千古不變的 真理來(lái)重建這座廟宇． 衡量這重建的尺度是我們體現(xiàn)比金錢利益更高尚的社會(huì)價(jià) 值的程度． 幸福并不在于單純地占有金錢；幸福還在于取得成就后的喜悅，在于創(chuàng)造努 力時(shí)

逝的利潤(rùn)．如果這些暗淡的時(shí)日能使我們認(rèn)識(shí)到，我們真正的天命不是要?jiǎng)e人侍 奉，而是為自己和同胞們服務(wù)，那么，我們付出的代價(jià)就完全是值得的． 認(rèn)識(shí)到把物質(zhì)財(cái)富當(dāng)作成功的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是錯(cuò)誤的，我們就會(huì)拋棄以地位尊嚴(yán)和個(gè) 人收益為唯一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，來(lái)衡量公職和高級(jí)政治地位的錯(cuò)誤信念；我們必須制止銀行 界和企業(yè)界的一種行為，它常常使神圣的委托混同于無(wú)情和自私的不正當(dāng)行 為．難怪信心在減弱，信心，只有靠誠(chéng)實(shí)、信譽(yù)、忠心維護(hù)和無(wú)私履行職責(zé)．而 沒有這些，就不可能有信心． 但是，復(fù)興不僅僅只要改變倫理觀念．這個(gè)國(guó)家要求行動(dòng)起來(lái)，現(xiàn)在就行動(dòng) 起來(lái)． 我們最大、最基本的任務(wù)是讓人民投入工作．只要我信行之以智慧和勇氣，這個(gè)問題就可以解決．這可以部分由政府直接征募完成，就象對(duì)待臨戰(zhàn)的緊要關(guān) 頭一樣，但同時(shí)，在有了人手的情況下，我們還急需能刺激并重組巨大自然資源 的工程． 我們齊心協(xié)力，但必須坦白地承認(rèn)工業(yè)中心的人口失衡，我們必須在全國(guó)范 圍內(nèi)重新分配，使土地在最適合的人手中發(fā)表?yè)]更大作用． 明確地為提高農(nóng)產(chǎn)品價(jià)值并以此購(gòu)買城市產(chǎn)品所做的努力，會(huì)有助于任務(wù)的 完成．避免許多小家庭業(yè)、農(nóng)場(chǎng)業(yè)被取消贖取抵押品的權(quán)利的悲劇也有助于任務(wù) 的完成． 聯(lián)邦、各地政府立即行動(dòng)回應(yīng)要求降價(jià)的呼聲，州、有助于任務(wù)的完成． 將 現(xiàn)在常常是分散不經(jīng)濟(jì)、不平等的救濟(jì)活動(dòng)統(tǒng)一起來(lái)有助于任務(wù)的完成．對(duì)所有 公共交通運(yùn)輸，通訊及其他涉及公眾生活的設(shè)施作全國(guó)性的計(jì)劃及監(jiān)督有助于任 務(wù)的完成．許多事情都有助于任務(wù)完成，但這些決不包括空談．我們必須行動(dòng)，立即行動(dòng)． 最后，為了重新開始工作，我們需要兩手防御，來(lái)抗御舊秩序惡魔卷土從來(lái)； 一定要有嚴(yán)格監(jiān)督銀行業(yè)、信貸及投資的機(jī)制：一定要杜絕投機(jī)；一定要有充足 而健康的貨幣供應(yīng)． 以上這些，朋友們，就是施政方針．我要在特別會(huì)議上敦促新國(guó)會(huì)給予詳細(xì) 實(shí)施方案，并且，我要向 18 個(gè)州請(qǐng)求立即的援助． 通過行動(dòng)，我們將予以我們自己一個(gè)有秩序的國(guó)家大廈，使收入大于支出． 我 們的國(guó)際貿(mào)易，雖然很重要，但現(xiàn)在在時(shí)間和必要性上，次于對(duì)本國(guó)健康經(jīng)濟(jì)的 建立．我建議，作為可行的策略、首要事務(wù)先行．雖然我將不遺余力通過國(guó)際經(jīng) 濟(jì)重新協(xié)調(diào)所來(lái)恢復(fù)國(guó)際貿(mào)易，但我認(rèn)為國(guó)內(nèi)的緊急情況無(wú)法等待這重新協(xié)調(diào)的 完成． 指導(dǎo)這一特別的全國(guó)性復(fù)蘇的基本思想并非狹隘的國(guó)家主義． 我首先考慮的 是堅(jiān)持美國(guó)這一整體

第五篇：羅斯福的就職演講

first inaugural address of franklin d.roosevelt saturday, march 4, 1933 i am certain that my fellow americans expect that on my induction into the presidency i will address them with a candor and a decision which the present situation of our nation impels.this is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly.nor need we shrink from honestly facing conditions in our country today.this great nation will endure as it has endured, will revive and will prosper.so, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself--nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.in every dark hour of our national life a leadership of frankness and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is essential to victory.i am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days.more important, a host of unemployed citizens face the grim problem of existence, and an equally great number toil with little return.only a foolish optimist can deny the dark realities of the moment.true they have tried, but their efforts have been cast in the pattern of an outworn tradition.faced by failure of credit they have proposed only the lending of more money.stripped of the lure of profit by which to induce our people to follow their false leadership, they have resorted to exhortations, pleading tearfully for restored confidence.they know only the rules of a generation of self-seekers.they have no vision, and when there is no vision the people perish.the money changers have fled from their high seats in the temple of our civilization.we may now restore that temple to the ancient truths.the measure of the restoration lies in the extent to which we apply social values more noble than mere monetary profit.happiness lies not in the mere possession of money;it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.the joy and moral stimulation of work no longer must be forgotten in the mad chase of evanescent profits.these dark days will be worth all they cost us if they teach us that our true destiny is not to be ministered unto but to minister to ourselves and to our fellow men.recognition of the falsity of material wealth as the standard of success goes hand in hand with the abandonment of the false belief that public office and high political position are to be valued only by the standards of pride of place and personal profit;and there must be an end to a conduct in banking and in business which too often has given to a sacred trust the likeness of callous and selfish wrongdoing.small wonder that confidence languishes, for it thrives only on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligations, on faithful protection, on unselfish performance;without them it cannot live.restoration calls, however, not for changes in ethics alone.this nation asks for action, and action now.hand in hand with this we must frankly recognize the overbalance of population in our industrial centers and, by engaging on a national scale in a redistribution, endeavor to provide a better use of the land for those best fitted for the land.the task can be helped by definite efforts to raise the values of agricultural products and with this the power to purchase the output of our cities.it can be helped by preventing realistically the tragedy of the growing loss through foreclosure of our small homes and our farms.it can be helped by insistence that the federal, state, and local governments act forthwith on the demand that their cost be drastically reduced.it can be helped by the unifying of relief activities which today are often scattered, uneconomical, and unequal.it can be helped by national planning for and finally, in our progress toward a resumption of work we require two safeguards against a return of the evils of the old order;there must be a strict supervision of all banking and credits and investments;there must be an end to speculation with other peoples money, and there must be provision for an adequate but sound currency.there are the lines of attack.i shall presently urge upon a new congress in special session detailed measures for their fulfillment, and i shall seek the immediate assistance of the several states.the basic thought that guides these specific means of national recovery is not narrowly nationalistic.it is the insistence, as a first consideration, upon the interdependence of the various elements in all parts of the united states--a recognition of the old and permanently important manifestation of the american spirit of the pioneer.it is the way to recovery.it is the immediate way.it is the strongest assurance that the recovery will endure.in the field of world policy i would dedicate this nation to the policy of the good neighbor--the neighbor who resolutely respects himself and, because he does so, respects the rights of others--the neighbor who respects his obligations and respects the sanctity of his agreements in and with a world of neighbors.if i read the temper of our people correctly, we now realize as we have never realized before our interdependence on each other;that we can not merely take but we must give as well;that if we are to go forward, we must move as a trained and loyal army willing to action in this image and to this end is feasible under the form of government which we have inherited from our ancestors.our constitution is so simple and practical that it is possible always to meet extraordinary needs by changes in emphasis and arrangement without loss of essential form.that is why our constitutional system has proved itself the most superbly enduring political mechanism the modern world has produced.it has met every stress of vast expansion of territory, of foreign wars, of bitter internal strife, of world relations.it is to be hoped that the normal balance of executive and legislative authority may be wholly adequate to meet the unprecedented task before us.but it may be that an unprecedented demand and need for undelayed action may call for temporary departure from that normal balance of public procedure.but in the event that the congress shall fail to take one of these two courses, and in the event that the national emergency is still critical, i shall not evade the clear course of duty that will then confront me.i shall ask the congress for the one remaining instrument to meet the crisis--broad executive power to wage a war against the emergency, as great as the power that would be given to me if we were in fact invaded by a foreign foe.for the trust reposed in me i will return the courage and the devotion that befit the time.i can do no less.we face the arduous days that lie before us in the warm courage of the national unity;with the clear consciousness of seeking old and precious moral values;with the clean we do not distrust the future of essential democracy.the people of the united states have not failed.in their need they have registered a mandate that they want direct, vigorous action.they have asked for discipline and direction under leadership.they have made me the present instrument of their wishes.in the spirit of the gift i take it.譯文：

富蘭克林-羅斯福 第一次就職演講

星期六,1933年3月4日 我肯定，同胞們都期待我在就任總統(tǒng)時(shí)，會(huì)像我國(guó)目前形勢(shì)所要求的那樣，坦率而果斷地向他們講話?，F(xiàn)在正是但白、勇敢地說(shuō)出實(shí)話，說(shuō)出全部實(shí)話的最好時(shí)刻，我們不必畏首畏尾，不著老實(shí)實(shí)面對(duì)我國(guó)今天的情況，這個(gè)偉大的國(guó)家會(huì)一如既住地堅(jiān)持下去，它會(huì)復(fù)興和繁榮起來(lái)。因此，讓我首先表明我的堅(jiān)定信念：我們唯一下得不害怕的就是害怕本身——一種莫明其妙的、喪失理智的、毫無(wú)根據(jù)的恐懼，它會(huì)把轉(zhuǎn)退為進(jìn)所需的種種努力化為泡影。凡在我國(guó)生活陰云密布的時(shí)刻，坦率而有活力的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)都得到過人民的理解和支持，從而為勝利準(zhǔn)備了必不可少的條件。我相信，在目前危急時(shí)刻，大家會(huì)再次給予同樣的支持。

我們唯一不得不害怕的就是害怕本身

我和你們都要以這種槽神，來(lái)面對(duì)我們共同的困難。感謝上帝，這些困難只是物質(zhì)方面的。價(jià)值難以想象地貶縮了；課稅增加了，我們的支付能力下降了；各級(jí)政府面臨著嚴(yán)重的收入短缺；交換手段在貿(mào)易過程中遭到了凍結(jié)；工業(yè)企業(yè)枯萎的落葉到處可見；農(nóng)場(chǎng)主的產(chǎn)品找不到銷路；千家萬(wàn)戶多年的積蓄付之東流。

更重要的是，大批失業(yè)公民正面臨嚴(yán)峻的生育問題，還有大批公民正以艱辛的勞動(dòng)換取微薄的報(bào)酬。只有愚蠢的樂天派會(huì)否認(rèn)當(dāng)前這些陰暗的現(xiàn)實(shí)。但是，我們的苦惱決不是因?yàn)槿狈ξ镔Y。我們沒有遭到什么蝗蟲災(zāi)害。我們的先輩曾以信念和無(wú)畏一次次轉(zhuǎn)危為安，比起他們經(jīng)歷過的險(xiǎn)阻，我們?nèi)源罂筛械叫牢?。大自然仍在給予我們恩惠，人類的努力已使之倍增。富足的憎景近在咫尺，但就在我們見到這種情景的時(shí)候，寬裕的生活卻悄然離去。這主要是因?yàn)橹髟兹祟愇镔Y交換的統(tǒng)治者們失敗了，他們固執(zhí)己見而又無(wú)能為力，因而已經(jīng)認(rèn)定失敗，并撒手不管了，貪得無(wú)厭的貨幣兌換商的種種行徑，將受到輿論法庭的起訴，將受到人類心靈和理智的唾棄。

幸福并不在于單純地占有主錢；幸福還在于取得成就后的喜悅，在于創(chuàng)造性努力時(shí)的激情。務(wù)必不能再忘記勞動(dòng)帶來(lái)的喜悅和激勵(lì)，而去瘋狂地追逐那轉(zhuǎn)瞬即逝的利潤(rùn)。如果這些暗淡的時(shí)日能使我們認(rèn)識(shí)到，我們真正的夭命不是要?jiǎng)e人侍奉，而是為自己和同胞們服務(wù)，那么，我們付出的代價(jià)就完全是值得的。認(rèn)識(shí)到把物質(zhì)財(cái)富當(dāng)作成功的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是錯(cuò)誤的，我們就會(huì)拋棄以地位尊嚴(yán)和個(gè)人收益為唯一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。來(lái)衡量公職和高級(jí)政治地位的錯(cuò)誤信念，我們必須制止銀行界和企業(yè)界的一種行為，它常常使神圣的委托混同于無(wú)情和自私的不正當(dāng)行為，難怪信心在減弱，因?yàn)樵鰪?qiáng)信心只有靠誠(chéng)實(shí)、榮譽(yù)感、神圣的責(zé)任感，忠實(shí)地加以維護(hù)和無(wú)私地履行職責(zé)，而沒有這些，就不可能有信心。但是，復(fù)興不僅僅要求改變倫理觀念。這個(gè)國(guó)家要求行動(dòng)起來(lái)，現(xiàn)在就行動(dòng)起來(lái)。

根據(jù)憲法賦予我的職責(zé)、我準(zhǔn)備提出一些措施，而一個(gè)受災(zāi)世界上的受災(zāi)國(guó)家也許需要這些措施。對(duì)于這些措施，以及國(guó)會(huì)根據(jù)本身的經(jīng)驗(yàn)和智慧可能制訂的其他類似措施，我將在憲法賦予我的權(quán)限內(nèi)，設(shè)法迅速地予以采納。

但是，如果國(guó)會(huì)拒不采納這兩條路線中的一條，如果國(guó)家緊急情況依然如故，我將下回避我所面臨的明確的盡責(zé)方向。我將要求國(guó)會(huì)準(zhǔn)許我使用唯一剩下的手殷來(lái)應(yīng)付危機(jī)——向非常情況開戰(zhàn)的廣泛的行政權(quán)，就像我們真的遭到外敵人侵時(shí)授予我那樣的廣泛權(quán)力。

對(duì)大家寄予我的信任，我一定報(bào)以時(shí)代所要求的勇氣和獻(xiàn)身精神，我會(huì)竭盡全力。

讓我們正視面前的嚴(yán)峻歲月，懷著舉國(guó)一致給我們帶來(lái)的熱情和勇氣，懷著尋求傳統(tǒng)的、珍貴的道德觀念的明確意識(shí)，懷著老老少少都能通過克盡職守而得到的問心無(wú)愧的滿足。我們的國(guó)標(biāo)是要保證國(guó)民生活的圓滿和長(zhǎng)治久安。

我們并不懷疑基本民主制度的未來(lái)。合眾國(guó)人民并沒有失敗。他們?cè)诶щy中表達(dá)了自己的委托，即要求采取直接而有力的行動(dòng)。他們要求有領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的紀(jì)律和方向。他們現(xiàn)在選擇了我作為實(shí)現(xiàn)他們的愿望的工具。我接受這份厚贈(zèng)。

在此舉國(guó)奉獻(xiàn)之際，我們謙卑地請(qǐng)求上帝賜福。愿上帝保佑我們大家和每一個(gè)人，愿上帝在未來(lái)的日子里指引我。篇二：羅斯福就職演說(shuō)中文翻譯 富蘭克林-羅斯福 第一次就職演講，星期六,1933年3月4日 我肯定，同胞們都期待我在就任總統(tǒng)時(shí)，會(huì)像我國(guó)目前形勢(shì)所要求的那樣，坦率而果斷地向他們講話?，F(xiàn)在正是但白、勇敢地說(shuō)出實(shí)話，說(shuō)出全部實(shí)話的最好時(shí)刻，我們不必畏首畏尾，不著老實(shí)實(shí)面對(duì)我國(guó)今天的情況，這個(gè)偉大的國(guó)家會(huì)一如既住地堅(jiān)持下去，它會(huì)復(fù)興和繁榮起來(lái)。因此，讓我首先表明我的堅(jiān)定信念：我們唯一下得不害怕的就是害怕本身——一種莫明其妙的、喪失理智的、毫無(wú)根據(jù)的恐懼，它會(huì)把轉(zhuǎn)退為進(jìn)所需的種種努力化為泡影。凡在我國(guó)生活陰云密布的時(shí)刻，坦率而有活力的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)都得到過人民的理解和支持，從而為勝利準(zhǔn)備了必不可少的條件。我相信，在目前危急時(shí)刻，大家會(huì)再次給予同樣的支持。我和你們都要以這種槽神，來(lái)面對(duì)我們共同的困難。感謝上帝，這些困難只是物質(zhì)方面的。價(jià)值難以想象地貶縮了；課稅增加了，我們的支付能力下降了；各級(jí)政府面臨著嚴(yán)重的收入短缺；交換手段在貿(mào)易過程中遭到了凍結(jié)；工業(yè)企業(yè)枯萎的落葉到處可見；農(nóng)場(chǎng)主的產(chǎn)品找不到銷路；千家萬(wàn)戶多年的積蓄付之東流。

我和你們一起以這種精神來(lái)面對(duì)共同的困難。感謝上帝，這些困難都只是物質(zhì)方面的。購(gòu)買力已經(jīng)萎縮到難以想象的程度；稅收增加；人們的支持能力下降；各級(jí)政府機(jī)關(guān)面臨著嚴(yán)重的經(jīng)費(fèi)削減；現(xiàn)行的貿(mào)易交易途徑被凍結(jié)；工業(yè)企業(yè)枯枝敗葉般四處飄零；農(nóng)場(chǎng)主無(wú)法找到銷售市場(chǎng)；成千上萬(wàn)家庭多年的積蓄喪失殆盡。更為嚴(yán)重的是，大批失業(yè)的市民們面臨著嚴(yán)酷的生存困境，而眾多的人們只能以艱苦的勞作換取微薄的報(bào)酬。只有盲目樂觀的人才會(huì)無(wú)視現(xiàn)實(shí)的嚴(yán)峻。

然而，我們的不幸并不是由物質(zhì)的匱乏造成的。我們沒有遭受蝗蟲的災(zāi)害。與我們的祖先所經(jīng)受的艱難相比，我們要幸運(yùn)的多了。而我們的祖先以其堅(jiān)定信仰和無(wú)畏精神戰(zhàn)勝了

這一切。大自然的恩澤不斷，而人類的努力更使它錦上添花。我們的門廊前堆滿了財(cái)富，但是大肆的揮霍卻使我們?nèi)氩环蟪觥＿@種后果主要是由商品交易的巨頭們的頑固不化和愚蠢無(wú)能造成的。他們已經(jīng)承認(rèn)了失敗，自動(dòng)引退了。錢商們的無(wú)恥行徑在公眾輿論的法庭上受到譴責(zé)，并為世人所唾棄。

是的，他們?cè)?jīng)努力過，但是他們的努力卻無(wú)法掙脫陳規(guī)舊俗的束縛。面對(duì)著信用危機(jī)，他們只是建議發(fā)放更多的貸款。他們慣常以利潤(rùn)引誘和控制大眾，一旦失去了利潤(rùn)的誘餌，他們便不惜恩惠并施，聲淚俱下地懇求公眾重新恢復(fù)信心。他們只懂得利己主義的準(zhǔn)則。他們?nèi)狈Ω哒斑h(yuǎn)矚，而沒有遠(yuǎn)見的民族是要滅亡的。

幸福并不駐足于對(duì)錢財(cái)?shù)恼加兄校歉灿趯?duì)成功的喜悅和對(duì)創(chuàng)造的興奮之中。對(duì)工作的喜悅之情和對(duì)勞動(dòng)的激勵(lì)之感不應(yīng)該再度迷失于對(duì)轉(zhuǎn)瞬即失的利潤(rùn)的瘋狂的追逐之中。如果這段慘淡歲月促使大家認(rèn)識(shí)到，我們不應(yīng)該聽天由命，而是應(yīng)該讓命運(yùn)為我們自己和我們的同胞們服務(wù)，那么，我們付出的代價(jià)是完全值得的。

認(rèn)識(shí)到將物質(zhì)財(cái)富視為衡量成功的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是荒謬，也就會(huì)擯棄以顯著地位和個(gè)人利益作為衡量公職和官位的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)這一錯(cuò)誤觀念；而且一定會(huì)終止那種常常以冷酷和自私的錯(cuò)誤行徑敷衍公眾神圣信賴的金融和商業(yè)行為。難怪公眾的信心正在消失，因?yàn)橹挥姓\(chéng)實(shí)、高尚、神圣的責(zé)任感、真誠(chéng)的保護(hù)措施和無(wú)私的工作才能使信心枝繁葉茂；沒

有這一切，信心便無(wú)法生存。然而，復(fù)興不僅僅需要道德觀念的革新。我們的國(guó)家需要行動(dòng)，需要立即行動(dòng)。

我們最重要的基本任務(wù)是安臵人民的就業(yè)。這絕不是一個(gè)無(wú)法解決的難題，只要我們明智地、勇敢地正視這一問題。在某種程度上，它可以通過政府部門直接招募雇員的方式加以解決，就如我們處于戰(zhàn)時(shí)緊急狀態(tài)中所做的那樣。同時(shí)，我們可以通過這種雇工的方式完成急需的工程項(xiàng)目，進(jìn)而刺激和調(diào)整我們對(duì)自然資源的利用。

與此同時(shí)，我們必須坦率地承認(rèn)，我們的工業(yè)中心人口過剩；我們要在全國(guó)范圍內(nèi)重新調(diào)配人口，為適合耕作的人們提供土地，以便更好地利用土地資源。我們可以通過努力提高農(nóng)產(chǎn)品價(jià)格的途徑，來(lái)促成這項(xiàng)工作，并借此提高城市的購(gòu)買力。我們要切合實(shí)際，制止實(shí)行取消抵押品贖回權(quán)制度，挽回小家庭和小農(nóng)場(chǎng)日益嚴(yán)重的損失。我們堅(jiān)持要求聯(lián)邦政府、州政府和各地政府立即采取措施大力削減費(fèi)用；我們要對(duì)救濟(jì)工作做出統(tǒng)籌安排，改變目前零散的、浪費(fèi)的和不均的現(xiàn)狀；我們要將所有形式的交通運(yùn)輸和其他一切明確的公共設(shè)施，交由國(guó)家統(tǒng)一計(jì)劃和監(jiān)控。有助于促進(jìn)此項(xiàng)工作的方法很多，唯獨(dú)空話無(wú)補(bǔ)于事。我們必須行動(dòng)起來(lái)，立即行動(dòng)起來(lái)。最后，在恢復(fù)工作的進(jìn)程中，我們需要做出兩點(diǎn)保證，以避免重新陷入舊秩序的弊端之中：必須嚴(yán)格的監(jiān)督所有的銀行儲(chǔ)蓄、信貸和投資活動(dòng)；必須終止利用他人的款項(xiàng)進(jìn)行投資的行為，銀行必須有充足和可靠的現(xiàn)金儲(chǔ)備。這些是我們的工作路線。我會(huì)立即敦促新一屆國(guó)會(huì)，在特別會(huì)議上就實(shí)行這些路線提出具體措施，而且我會(huì)要求一些州提供緊急援助。

通過這項(xiàng)行動(dòng)綱領(lǐng)，我們將整頓秩序，平衡收支?；謴?fù)國(guó)際關(guān)系的工作雖然十分重要，但是從時(shí)間性和必要性而言，它必須從屬于建立一個(gè)健全的國(guó)民經(jīng)濟(jì)體系的任務(wù)。我提倡務(wù)實(shí)的政策，分清輕重緩急。我將不遺余力地借助國(guó)際經(jīng)濟(jì)調(diào)整來(lái)恢復(fù)對(duì)外貿(mào)易，但是我們決不能待完成此項(xiàng)工作之后，再來(lái)處理國(guó)內(nèi)的嚴(yán)峻經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)。

這一基本思想指導(dǎo)著國(guó)內(nèi)經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)蘇的具體行動(dòng)，它并不是狹義的民族主義。我們的首要考慮是，堅(jiān)持合眾國(guó)內(nèi)部各因素和各部門之間相互依存的關(guān)系——這是對(duì)傳統(tǒng)的、極其重要的美國(guó)拓荒精神的認(rèn)同。這是復(fù)興之道。這是一條捷徑。它是復(fù)興計(jì)劃得以持續(xù)實(shí)施的強(qiáng)有力的保障。

在對(duì)外政策方面，我將奉行國(guó)家間的睦鄰政策——堅(jiān)定地尊重自己，也因此而尊重別人的權(quán)利；尊重自己的職責(zé)，同時(shí)尊重自己與世界各國(guó)之間的條約的尊嚴(yán)。如果我對(duì)人民情緒的揣摩是正確的話，那么我們現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)認(rèn)識(shí)到我們之間的相互依存關(guān)系（這是我們先前從未意識(shí)到的），那就是：我們不能只是索取，我們也必須奉獻(xiàn)。如果我們要前進(jìn)，我們必須像一支訓(xùn)練有素且忠誠(chéng)可靠的軍隊(duì)那樣，甘于為維護(hù)良好的紀(jì)律而做出犧牲，因?yàn)闆]有良好的紀(jì)律就不可能有任何進(jìn)步，就不可能實(shí)施有效的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。我相信，我們?cè)敢獠⑶覝?zhǔn)備為實(shí)現(xiàn)這樣的秩序而奉獻(xiàn)我們的生命和財(cái)產(chǎn)，因?yàn)槲┯腥绱?，我們才能?shí)現(xiàn)以大眾的利益為目標(biāo)的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。我計(jì)劃實(shí)施這樣的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)，它能保證以更高的目標(biāo)約束我們大家的神圣義務(wù)，從而形成一種只有在戰(zhàn)時(shí)才會(huì)出現(xiàn)的共同承擔(dān)責(zé)任的統(tǒng)一體。作出這項(xiàng)保證之后，我將義無(wú)反顧地領(lǐng)導(dǎo)這支由我國(guó)人民組成的偉大軍隊(duì)，井然有序地著手處理我們的共同問題------根據(jù)憲法賦予我的職責(zé)，我準(zhǔn)備提出我們積重難返的國(guó)家在災(zāi)難深重的世界中必須采取的措施。對(duì)于這些措施，以及國(guó)會(huì)根據(jù)經(jīng)驗(yàn)和智慧提出的其它措施，我將竭盡憲法賦予我的權(quán)力之所能，盡快將它付諸實(shí)施。然而，萬(wàn)一國(guó)會(huì)否決了其中的任何一種方式，萬(wàn)一國(guó)內(nèi)的嚴(yán)峻形勢(shì)依然沒有得到緩解，我絕不會(huì)回避我那時(shí)將擔(dān)負(fù)的責(zé)任。我將要求國(guó)會(huì)準(zhǔn)予我動(dòng)用解決危機(jī)的最高權(quán)力——向危機(jī)開戰(zhàn)的廣泛的行政權(quán)力，這種權(quán)利相當(dāng)于國(guó)家遭受外敵入侵時(shí)我所擁有的權(quán)利。對(duì)于大家所賦予我的信任，我將用時(shí)代所要求的勇氣和奉獻(xiàn)作為回報(bào)。我將竭盡全力------篇四：羅斯福就職演講

害怕本身--一種莫名其妙、喪失理智的、毫無(wú)根據(jù)的恐懼，它把人轉(zhuǎn)退為進(jìn)所需 的種種努力化為泡影．凡在我國(guó)生活陰云密布的時(shí)刻，坦率而有活力的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)都得 到過人民的理解和支持，從而為勝利準(zhǔn)備了必不可少的條件．我相信，在目前危 急時(shí)刻，大家會(huì)再次給予同樣的支持． 我和你們都要以這種精神，來(lái)面對(duì)我們共同的困難．感謝上帝，這些困難只 是物質(zhì)方面的．價(jià)值難以想象地貶縮了；課稅增加了；我們的支付能力下降了； 各級(jí)政府面臨著嚴(yán)重的收入短缺；交換手段在貿(mào)易過程中遭到了凍結(jié)；工業(yè)企業(yè) 枯萎的落葉到處可見； 農(nóng)場(chǎng)主的產(chǎn)品找不到銷路；

按：富蘭克林羅斯福就任美國(guó)總統(tǒng)之時(shí)，美國(guó)正在遭受經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)的沉重打擊。他在就職演說(shuō)中呼吁美國(guó)人擺脫恐懼心理，迅速行動(dòng)起來(lái)應(yīng)付危機(jī)，并要求國(guó)會(huì)授予他廣泛的行政權(quán)力。）1933年3月4日 值此我就職之際，同胞們肯定期望我以我國(guó)當(dāng)前情勢(shì)所要求的坦率和果斷來(lái)發(fā)表演說(shuō)?，F(xiàn)在確實(shí)尤其有必要坦白而果敢地談一談?wù)媲閷?shí)況，全部的真情實(shí)況。我們沒有必要去躲閃，不去老老實(shí)實(shí)地面對(duì)我國(guó)今天的情況。我們的國(guó)家過去經(jīng)得起考驗(yàn)，今后還會(huì)經(jīng)得起考驗(yàn)，復(fù)興起來(lái)，繁榮下去。因此，首先，允許我申明我的堅(jiān)定信念：我們唯一值得恐懼的就是恐懼本身——會(huì)使我們由后退轉(zhuǎn)而前進(jìn)所需的努力陷于癱瘓的那種無(wú)名的、沒有道理的、毫無(wú)根據(jù)的害怕。在我們國(guó)家生活中每一個(gè)黑暗的時(shí)刻，直言不諱、堅(jiān)強(qiáng)有力的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)都曾經(jīng)得到人民的諒解和支持，從而保證了勝利。我堅(jiān)信，在當(dāng)前的危機(jī)時(shí)期，你們也會(huì)再一次對(duì)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)表示支持。我和你們都要以這樣一種精神來(lái)面對(duì)共同的困難。感謝上帝，這些困難都只是物質(zhì)方面的。價(jià)值貶縮到難以想象的程度；賦稅增加了；我們納稅的能力則已降低；各級(jí)政府都遇到嚴(yán)重的收入減少；嘆交換手段難逃貿(mào)易長(zhǎng)流冰封，看工業(yè)企業(yè)盡成枯枝殘葉；農(nóng)場(chǎng)主的產(chǎn)品找不到市場(chǎng)；千萬(wàn)個(gè)家庭的多年積蓄毀于一旦。

更重要的是，大批的失業(yè)公民面臨嚴(yán)峻的生存問題，而艱苦勞動(dòng)卻所得甚微的也不在少數(shù)。只有愚蠢的樂天派才能否認(rèn)眼前的暗淡現(xiàn)實(shí)。

但是，我們的困難并不是由于實(shí)質(zhì)上的失敗。我們沒有遭到什么蝗蟲之害。我們的祖先篤信上帝，無(wú)所畏懼，因而所向披靡，比起他們的艱險(xiǎn)，我們還該說(shuō)是萬(wàn)幸。大自然的施惠不減，而人的努力更是使其倍增。我們手頭并不匱乏，然而豐足卻激發(fā)不起來(lái)慷慨的用度。這首先是因?yàn)檎莆杖祟愇锲方粨Q的統(tǒng)治者們的頑固和無(wú)能，他們承認(rèn)失敗而自動(dòng)退位。貪得無(wú)厭的錢商們?cè)谳浾摰姆ㄍド媳恍嬗凶?，是為人類思想感情上所厭棄的?/p>

他們也的確作了努力，但是他們的努力脫不開過時(shí)傳統(tǒng)的巢臼。面對(duì)著信用的失敗，他們的建議卻僅是借貸更多的錢。他們失去了利潤(rùn)的吸引力，無(wú)法再使人民遵從他們的虛偽領(lǐng)導(dǎo)，于是他們就不惜進(jìn)行敲詐，痛哭流涕地要求恢復(fù)對(duì)他們的信任。他們沒有預(yù)見，而缺乏預(yù)見就要使人民遭殃。

錢商們從我們文化廟堂的高位逃走了。我們現(xiàn)在可以使那廟堂恢復(fù)傳統(tǒng)的信念。能夠恢復(fù)到什么程度，則看我們對(duì)于比金錢利潤(rùn)更高貴的價(jià)值觀念予以運(yùn)用的情況。

幸福并不建筑在僅僅擁有金錢上；它建筑在有所成就引起的歡樂，創(chuàng)造性工作所激發(fā)出的快感。一定不要在瘋狂地追求瞬息即逝的利潤(rùn)中再去忘記勞動(dòng)給我們帶來(lái)的歡樂和精神上的鼓舞。我們?cè)谶@些暗淡的日子里所付的代價(jià)將是完全值得的，如果我們從中汲取教訓(xùn)，認(rèn)識(shí)到我們不應(yīng)該聽天由命，而應(yīng)該讓命運(yùn)為我們自己和我們的同胞服務(wù)。認(rèn)識(shí)到把物質(zhì)財(cái)富當(dāng)作成功的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是錯(cuò)誤的，也就不會(huì)再相信擔(dān)任公職和很高的政治地位之所以可貴僅僅在于官高祿厚；同時(shí)也必須終止金融業(yè)和商業(yè)中的一種作法，它常常使得神圣的委托深似無(wú)情和自私的惡行。難怪信心在減退，因?yàn)橹挥姓\(chéng)實(shí)、榮譽(yù)感、神圣的責(zé)任心、忠貞的維護(hù)和無(wú)私的作為才能鼓舞信心；沒有這一切，信心出就不能存在。

然而復(fù)興并不僅僅要求改變道德觀念。祖國(guó)要求行動(dòng)起來(lái)，現(xiàn)在就行動(dòng)起來(lái)。

我們的首要任務(wù)是給人民工作。我們只要明智而勇敢地承擔(dān)起來(lái)，這項(xiàng)任務(wù)并不是不能解決的。部分地可以由政府直接招雇，象戰(zhàn)時(shí)緊急狀況那樣，同時(shí)通過雇用這些人員來(lái)完成急需的工程，從而促進(jìn)和改組我們自然資源的利用。

與此同時(shí)，我們還必須認(rèn)識(shí)到工業(yè)中心已經(jīng)人口過剩，因此應(yīng)盡力把土地提供給最善于耕種的人，一方面使土地得到更好的利用，一方面在全國(guó)范圍重新分配人口。為了促成此項(xiàng)工作，要采取具體措施提高農(nóng)產(chǎn)品價(jià)值，從而提高對(duì)我們城市產(chǎn)品的購(gòu)買力。要從實(shí)際出發(fā)制止對(duì)小房產(chǎn)和農(nóng)場(chǎng)取消償還抵押所造成的悲劇和日益嚴(yán)重的損失。要堅(jiān)持由聯(lián)邦和各州以及各地方政府立即采取行動(dòng)支持大量削減抵押的要求。要把救濟(jì)工作統(tǒng)一掌管起來(lái)以避免目前的分散、浪費(fèi)和不均的現(xiàn)象。要把一切形式的交通運(yùn)輸扣其他明確屬于公用事業(yè)的設(shè)施置于國(guó)家計(jì)劃和監(jiān)督之下?？傊?，可以促成此項(xiàng)工作的方法是很多的，唯有空談無(wú)用。我們必須行動(dòng)起來(lái)，迅速行動(dòng)起來(lái)。

最后，在恢復(fù)階段中，我們需要避免舊秩序弊端重新出現(xiàn)的兩項(xiàng)保證：必須嚴(yán)格監(jiān)督一切銀行儲(chǔ)蓄、信貸和投資，以制止利用他人存款進(jìn)行投機(jī)的活動(dòng)；必須提供充分而有償付能力的貨幣。

這就是我們的行動(dòng)路線。我即將向新的國(guó)會(huì)的特別會(huì)議提出實(shí)施這些路線的具體措施，我還將要求各州立即提供支援。

通過此項(xiàng)行動(dòng)綱領(lǐng)，我們將致力于整頓財(cái)政，平衡收支。我們的國(guó)際貿(mào)易關(guān)系雖然十分重要，但在時(shí)間性和必要性上必須從屬于健全國(guó)民經(jīng)濟(jì)的任務(wù)。我主張采取切合實(shí)際的政策，分清輕重緩急。我一定竭盡一切努力通過國(guó)際經(jīng)濟(jì)調(diào)整來(lái)恢復(fù)同世界各地的貿(mào)易，但是國(guó)內(nèi)的緊急狀況是等待不得貿(mào)易上的成就的。

國(guó)家復(fù)興的這些具體方法，其基本指導(dǎo)思想并不是狹隘的民族主義。我們首先考慮的是：堅(jiān)持合眾國(guó)國(guó)內(nèi)的各種因素和合眾國(guó)各個(gè)部分之間的互相依靠——承認(rèn)美國(guó)拓荒精神的傳統(tǒng)的和永遠(yuǎn)重要的體現(xiàn)。這是復(fù)興的道路。這是直接的道路。這是復(fù)興得以持久的最有力的保證。

在對(duì)外政策方面，我認(rèn)為我國(guó)應(yīng)該奉行睦鄰政策——決心尊重自己，從而也尊重鄰國(guó)的權(quán)利——珍視自己的義務(wù)，也珍視與所有鄰國(guó)和全世界各國(guó)協(xié)議中所規(guī)定的神圣義務(wù)。

如果我對(duì)我國(guó)人民的情緒體會(huì)得正確，盡管我們過去在不能互相依靠時(shí)并不理解，我們現(xiàn)在則已經(jīng)理解到：我們不能只要有所得，也要有所貢獻(xiàn)；我們要前進(jìn)，我們就必須象一支有訓(xùn)練而忠誠(chéng)的軍隊(duì)那樣，為了共同的紀(jì)律而樂意有所犧牲，因?yàn)闆]有這樣的紀(jì)律就不可能前進(jìn)，就不可能實(shí)現(xiàn)有效的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。我相信我們?cè)敢獠⑶覝?zhǔn)備為這樣的紀(jì)律獻(xiàn)出我們的生命和財(cái)產(chǎn)，因?yàn)?，只有?shí)現(xiàn)這樣的紀(jì)律，才能實(shí)現(xiàn)為了更高利益而奮斗的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。我愿意提供這樣的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)，保證使這些更高的目標(biāo)將作為一種神圣義務(wù)對(duì)我們大家都有所約束，從而產(chǎn)生只有戰(zhàn)時(shí)才出現(xiàn)過的共同責(zé)任感。

作了這項(xiàng)保證之后，我將無(wú)所顧忌地領(lǐng)導(dǎo)起我國(guó)人民組成的大軍，紀(jì)律井然地逐一解決我們的共同問題。

我們有從先輩那里繼承下來(lái)的政府形式，紀(jì)律井然地解決共同問題的行動(dòng)是完全可能的。我們的憲法是簡(jiǎn)明扼要的，總是可以根據(jù)特殊的需要而在重點(diǎn)和安排上有所改變，而無(wú)需動(dòng)搖其基本形式。正是因?yàn)槿绱?，我們的憲政才不愧為現(xiàn)代世界所產(chǎn)生的最穩(wěn)定持久的政治結(jié)構(gòu)。它經(jīng)受了領(lǐng)土的極度擴(kuò)張、辛酸的內(nèi)戰(zhàn)、對(duì)外戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)和國(guó)際關(guān)系的考驗(yàn)。

但愿正常的行政和立法分權(quán)完全足以應(yīng)付我們所面對(duì)的史無(wú)前例的重任。然而，史無(wú)前例的要求和迅即行動(dòng)的需要也可能使我們有必要暫時(shí)背離正常分權(quán)的公開程序。

我準(zhǔn)備根據(jù)憲法賦予我的職責(zé)提出災(zāi)難深重的我國(guó)在當(dāng)前災(zāi)難深重的世界中所需要采取的措施。這些措施，以及國(guó)會(huì)根據(jù)其本身經(jīng)驗(yàn)和明智所決定的措施，我都將竭盡憲法所賦予我的權(quán)力迅即予以采納。

然而，萬(wàn)一國(guó)會(huì)竟不能接受兩類中之任一方式，萬(wàn)一全國(guó)緊急狀況仍然嚴(yán)重，我也將決不回避職責(zé)明確向我提出的抉擇。我會(huì)要求國(guó)會(huì)準(zhǔn)許我使用應(yīng)付危機(jī)的唯一剩余的手段——向非常狀況開戰(zhàn)的廣泛行政權(quán)力，就象在實(shí)際遭受外部敵人入侵時(shí)所應(yīng)授予我的大權(quán)。

對(duì)于給予我的信任，我愿意拿出時(shí)代所要求于我的勇氣和堅(jiān)貞。我決不會(huì)有負(fù)眾望。我們瞻望前途的艱苦時(shí)日，深感國(guó)家統(tǒng)一所給予我們的溫暖和勇氣，明確必須遵循傳統(tǒng)的寶貴道德觀念，堅(jiān)信不分老幼克盡其責(zé)必能取得圓滿成功。我們務(wù)使國(guó)民生計(jì)獲得全面和長(zhǎng)久的保證。我們對(duì)基本民主的未來(lái)并未失去信念。合眾國(guó)的人民并未氣餒。在困難中，他們作為選民提出的要求是直接而有力的行動(dòng)。他們要求的是有領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的紀(jì)律和方向。他們已經(jīng)選擇我來(lái)作為實(shí)現(xiàn)他們?cè)竿墓ぞ?。我也是以這樣的精神來(lái)?yè)?dān)當(dāng)?shù)?。值此全?guó)奉獻(xiàn)之際，我們懇請(qǐng)上帝賜福。祝愿上帝保佑我們?nèi)w和每一個(gè)人。祝愿上帝指引我前進(jìn)。
