克林顿就职演讲稿
❶ 克林顿在第四次连任阿肯色州州长的就职仪式上发表演说主要包括哪些内容
1991年1月，克林顿在演说中，公开提出了一系列新的建议。他同意议案关于要求18周岁内以下的驾驶员容要出示学校上课的证明，以及强调学校出示证明的学生年龄在16一17岁之间。他提出了为高等学校那些不愿意继续上学的毕业生制定全日制的学徒计划，并提出了支持增加成年人阅读及写作能力的计划。此外，还提出学生奖学金的获得者至少应达到B级水平。

January 20, 1993, Inaugural Address of William J. Clinton （克林顿1993年就职演讲）
My fellow citizens :（同胞们）
Today we celebrate the mystery of American renewal.
今天，我们庆祝振兴美国这件令人感到异常惊奇的事。
This ceremony is held in the depth of winter. But, by the words we speak and the faces we show the world, we force the spring. A spring reborn in the world's oldest democracy, that brings forth the vision and courage to reinvent America.
尽管这个仪式在隆冬举行，但是，我们所说的话，我们向全世界所显示的面貌，将促使春天的早日来临。春天重新降临到这个世界上最古老的民主国家，它给我们带来了重新塑造美国的构想和勇气。
When our founders boldly declared America's independence to the world and our purposes to the Almighty, they knew that America, to enre, would have to change. Not change for change's sake, but change to preserve America's ideals; life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness. Though we march to the music of our time, our mission is timeless. Each generation of Americans must define what it means to be an American.
当我们的缔造者们大胆地向全世界宣布美国的独立，向上帝宣布我们的目的时，他们知道，美国要长久地存在下去，就必须改革。我们不是为改革而改革，而是为了保持美国的理想——生活、自由和追求幸福。虽然我们伴随着时代的乐曲前进，我们的使命却是永恒的。每一代美国人都必须明确作为一个美国人意味着什么。
On behalf of our nation, I salute my predecessor, President Bush, for his half-century of service to America. And I thank the millions of men and women whose steadfastness and sacrifice triumphed over Depression, fascism and Communism.
我的前任布什总统为美国服务了半个世纪，在此，我代表我们的国家向他致以崇高的敬意。
Today, a generation raised in the shadows of the Cold War assumes new responsibilities in a world warmed by the sunshine of freedom but threatened still by ancient hatreds and new plagues.
我还要向千百万人民表示感谢，他们以坚定的信念和牺牲战胜了经济萧条、法西斯主义。今天，在冷战的阴影下成长起来的一代人在世界上已肩负起新的责任。这个世界虽然沐浴在自由的阳光下，但仍然面临着旧的仇恨和新的灾祸的威胁。
Raised in unrivaled prosperity, we inherit an economy that is still the world's strongest, but is weakened by business failures, stagnant wages, increasing inequality, and deep divisions among our people.
我们在无与伦比的繁荣中成长，继承了一个仍然是世界上最强大经济，但是，商业失败、工资停滞、不平等加剧，以及我们自己的人民四分五裂，削弱了这个经济。
When George Washington first took the oath I have just sworn to uphold, news traveled slowly across the land by horseback and across the ocean by boat. Now, the sights and sounds of this ceremony are broadcast instantaneously to billions around the world.
当乔治华盛顿第一次发出我刚才宣誓信守的誓言时，消息缓慢地通过骑马传遍大陆和乘船漂洋过海。而今，这个仪式的情景和声音可以立即向全世界数十亿人广播。
Communications and commerce are global; investment is mobile; technology is almost magical; and ambition for a better life is now universal. We earn our livelihood in peaceful competition with people all across the earth.
通讯和商业是全球性的，投资是流动性的，技术几乎是神秘的，而要求改善生活的强烈愿望是全世界人民共同的。今天，我们美国人是和全世界人民在和平竞争中谋求我们的生计。
Profound and powerful forces are shaking and remaking our world, and the urgent question of our time is whether we can make change our friend and not our enemy.
各种根深蒂固和强大的势力正在动摇和重新塑造我们的世界。我们时代迫切需要解决的问题是，我们能否使改革成为我们的朋友，而不是我们的敌人。
This new world has already enriched the lives of millions of Americans who are able to compete and win in it. But when most people are working harder for less; when others cannot work at all; when the cost of health care devastates families and threatens to bankrupt many of our enterprises, great and small; when fear of crime robs law-abiding citizens of their freedom; and when millions of poor children cannot even imagine the lives we are calling them to lead, we have not made change our friend.
尽管这个新的世界已经使千百万能够在其中竞争并取胜的美国人富裕起来了，但是，在大多数人更加拼命地工作而收入却在减少的时候，在还有人根本找不到工作的时候，在卫生保健费用使许多人倾家荡产、使大大小小的企业行将倒闭的时候，在恐惧犯罪而使奉公守法的公民丧失自由的时候，在千百万贫困儿童甚至难以想象我们正召唤他们去过的那种生活的时候，我们却还没有使改革成为我们的朋友。
We know we have to face hard truths and take strong steps. But we have not done so. Instead, we have drifted, and that drifting has eroded our resources, fractured our economy, and shaken our confidence.
我们知道，我们必须正视严酷的现实并且采取有力的措施，但是，我们没有这样做。相反，我们所奉行的是放任自流的政策，这种政策已经削弱了我们的力量，破坏了我们的经济，动摇了我们的信心。
Though our challenges are fearsome, so are our strengths. And Americans have ever been a restless, questing, hopeful people. We must bring to our task today the vision and will of those who came before us.
虽然我们的挑战是可畏的，但我们的力量也是可畏的。美国人民从来就是一个不甘寂寞、勇于探索和充满希望的人民。我们必须使我们今天的任务体现我们前人的远见和意志。
From our revolution, the Civil War, to the Great Depression to the civil rights movement, our people have always mustered the determination to construct from these crises the pillars of our history.
从美国革命到南北战争，到大萧条，到民权运动，我们的人民总是下定决心，从这些危机中摆脱出来去建立我们历史的支柱。
Thomas Jefferson believed that to preserve the very foundations of our nation, we would need dramatic change from time to time. Well, my fellow citizens, this is our time. Let us embrace it.
托马斯杰斐逊认为，要保持我们国家的基础，我们就需要不时地进行改革。同胞们，这是我们的时代，让我们去拥抱它。
Our democracy must be not only the envy of the world but the engine of our own renewal. There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America.
我们的民主制度不仅要为全世界所仰慕，还必须成为我们自我振兴的发动机。美国完全有能力自己解救自己。
And so today, we pledge an end to the era of deadlock and drift; a new season of American renewal has begun. To renew America, we must be bold. We must do what no generation has had to do before. We must invest more in our own people, in their jobs, in their future, and at the same time cut our massive debt. And we must do so in a world in which we must compete for every opportunity. It will not be easy; it will require sacrifice. But it can be done, and done fairly, not choosing sacrifice for its own sake, but for our own sake. We must provide for our nation the way a family provides for its children.
因此，今天我们决心结束这个僵持停顿和放任自流的时代。一个振兴美国的新时代已经到来。要振兴美国，我们必须有足够的勇气和胆量。我们必须对自己的人民——对他们的工作和对他们的未来——增加投资，同时削减我们的巨额债务。在一个我们必须靠竞争才能获得每个机会的世界上，我们一定要这样做。虽然，这不是一件轻而易举的事，它需要作出牺牲。但是，我们能够做到，而且能够做得很好。我们不是为了牺牲而牺牲，而是为我们自己的利益而牺牲。我们必须像一个家庭抚育它的孩子那样抚育我们的国家。
Our Founders saw themselves in the light of posterity. We can do no less. Anyone who has ever watched a child's eyes wander into sleep knows what posterity is. Posterity is the world to come; the world for whom we hold our ideals, from whom we have borrowed our planet, and to whom we bear sacred responsibility. We must do what America does best: offer more opportunity to all and demand responsibility from all.
我们的缔造者们是从子孙后代的角度来审视他们自己的行为。我们也必须这样做。任何曾经注意过孩子的双眼朦胧进入梦乡的人，都知道后代是什么。后代是未来的世界。为了他们，我们满怀理想。从他们那里，我们借用了这块地球，对他们，我们负有神圣的责任。我们必须尽美国之所能：向所有人提供更多的机会，要求所有人承担更多的责任。
It is time to break the bad habit of expecting something for nothing, from our government or from each other. Let us all take more responsibility, not only for ourselves and our families but for our communities and our country. To renew America, we must revitalize our democracy.
现在，已经到了该破除那种只望政府或别人给予，而自己不愿付出的坏习惯的时候了。让我们大家都担负起更多的责任，不光是为我们自己和我们的家庭，而且是我们的社会和我们的国家。为振兴美国，我们必须给我们的民主制度带来新的活力。
This beautiful capital, like every capital since the dawn of civilization, is often a place of intrigue and calculation. Powerful people maneuver for position and worry endlessly about who is in and who is out, who is up and who is down, forgetting those people whose toil and sweat sends us here and pays our way.
这个美丽的首都，就像文明出现以来的所有首都一样，往往是一个搞阴谋诡计和勾心斗角的地方。达官贵族们玩弄权术、争名夺利，随时都在担心谁进谁出、谁升谁降，忘记了那些用辛勤和汗水把我们送到这里，并为我们承担费用的人。
Americans deserve better, and in this city today, there are people who want to do better. And so I say to all of us here, let us resolve to reform our politics, so that power and privilege no longer shout down the voice of the people. Let us put aside personal advantage so that we can feel the pain and see the promise of America. Let us resolve to make our government a place for what Franklin Roosevelt called "bold, persistent experimentation," a government for our tomorrows, not our yesterdays. Let us give this capital back to the people to whom it belongs.
美国人应当生活得更好。今天，在这座城市里，人们希望把事情办得更好。所以，我要向在场的诸位说，让我们下定决心改革我们的政治，使人民的呼声不再被权力和特权所压倒。让我们抛开个人利益，这样，我们便能感受到美国的痛苦，也看到美国的希望。让我们下定决心，使我们的政府成为一个富兰克林罗斯福所说的，进行“大胆而持久的实验”的地方，即是说，成为一个着眼于未来，而不是留恋过去的政府。让我们把这个首都还给她所属的人民。
To renew America, we must meet challenges abroad as well at home. There is no longer division between what is foreign and what is domestic; the world economy, the world environment, the world AIDS crisis, the world arms race; they affect us all.
为了振兴美国，我们必须迎接来自国内、国外的种种挑战。在什么是国外和什么是国内之间已不再有明确的界线。全球经济、全球环境、全球艾滋病危机和全球军备竞赛，这一切影响着所有的人。
Today, as an old order passes, the new world is more free but less stable. Communism's collapse has called forth old animosities and new dangers. Clearly America must continue to lead the world we did so much to make.
今天，随着旧秩序被打破，新的世界更加自由，但又更加不稳定。共产主义的崩溃激起了旧的仇恨和新的危险。显然，美国必须继续领导这个我们曾经付出巨大努力而创造的世界。
While America rebuilds at home, we will not shrink from the challenges, nor fail to seize the opportunities, of this new world. Together with our friends and allies, we will work to shape change, lest it engulf us.
当我们致力于重建美国的时候，我们不会在这个新世界的挑战面前退缩，也不会坐失良机。我们将同我们的朋友和盟国一道，努力确定改革和发展方向，以免被改革所吞没。
When our vital interests are challenged, or the will and conscience of the international community is defied, we will act; with peaceful diplomacy when ever possible, with force when necessary. The brave Americans serving our nation today in the Persian Gulf, in Somalia, and wherever else they stand are testament to our resolve.
当我们的国家利益受到挑战，或者国际社会的意志及公德遭到蔑视的时候，我们将尽可能地通过和平外交手段去解决。必要时也可以诉诸武力。今天，在波斯湾，在索马里，在其他地方，那些为国效力的美国勇士们都证明了我们的决心。
But our greatest strength is the power of our ideas, which are still new in many lands. Across the world, we see them embraced, and we rejoice. Our hopes, our hearts, our hands, are with those on every continent who are building democracy and freedom. Their cause is America's cause.
然而，我们最大的实力是我们的思想力量。在许多国家，美国的思想还是一种新生力量。看到这些思想为世界各国所接受，我们感到由衷的高兴。我们的希望、我们的心，我们的手，同五大洲正在建设民主和自由的人民是联在一起的。他们的事业就是美国的事业。
The American people have summoned the change we celebrate today. You have raised your voices in an unmistakable chorus. You have cast your votes in historic numbers. And you have changed the face of Congress, the presidency and the political process itself. Yes, you, my fellow Americans have forced the spring. Now, we must do the work the season demands.
美国人民呼唤我们今天庆祝的变革。你们异口同声地提高了自己的呼声。你们以前所未有的人数参加了投票。你们改变了国会、总统以及政治进程本身的面貌。同胞们，是的，你们已经促使春天提前到来了。现在，我们必须致力于这个时期所赋予我们的任务。
To that work I now turn, with all the authority of my office. I ask the Congress to join with me. But no president, no Congress, no government, can undertake this mission alone. My fellow Americans, you, too, must play your part in our renewal. I challenge a new generation of young Americans to a season of service; to act on your idealism by helping troubled children, keeping company with those in need, reconnecting our torn communities. There is so much to be done; enough indeed for millions of others who are still young in spirit to give of themselves in service, too.
为了这个任务，我将充分行使我的职权。我请求国会同我合作。但是，任何一位总统，任何一个国会，任何一届政府，都无法独自承担这一使命。同胞们，你们也必须在国家的振兴中发挥作用。我要求新一代美国青年按照你们的理想行动起来，帮助困难儿童，同患难者休戚与共，把我们这个四分五裂的社会重新凝为一体，为祖国贡献你们的力量。要做的事情太多——确实足以使千百万精神上依然年轻的其他人也投身其中。
In serving, we recognize a simple but powerful truth, we need each other. And we must care for one another. Today, we do more than celebrate America; we rededicate ourselves to the very idea of America.
在振兴祖国的事业中，我们认识到一个简单而强有力的真理。我们不仅彼此需要，还必须相互关心。今天，我们不只是在庆祝美国，而且是在重新献身于美国的思想。
An idea born in revolution and renewed through two centuries of challenge. An idea tempered by the knowledge that, but for fate we, the fortunate and the unfortunate, might have been each other. An idea ennobled by the faith that our nation can summon from its myriad diversity the deepest measure of unity. An idea infused with the conviction that America's long heroic journey must go forever upward.
这种思想是一种在革命中诞生、经过两个世纪的挑战而获得新生的思想。一种经受过这种认识锤炼的思想，即我们这些幸运者和不幸者，若非因为命运的安排，可能已经变换位置。一种因为这种信念而变得崇高的思想，即相信我们的国家能够从无数的分歧中求得最大程度的团结一致。一种充满信心的思想，即相信美国漫长而英勇的旅程定会永远向上。
And so, my fellow Americans, at the edge of the 21st century, let us begin with energy and hope, with faith and discipline, and let us work until our work is done. The scripture says, "And let us not be weary in well-doing, for in e season, we shall reap, if we faint not."
为此，同胞们，在即将跨入21世纪的时候，让我们重新开始，鼓起勇气、满怀希望、坚定信念、遵守纪律，把我们的事业进行到底。《圣经》说：“我们行善，不可丧志，只要坚持，终有收获。”
From this joyful mountaintop of celebration, we hear a call to service in the valley. We have heard the trumpets. We have changed the guard. And now, each in our way, and with God's help, we must answer the call.
在这个欢庆的高山之巅，我们听到山谷里传来为国效力的召唤。我们听到了号声。我们已经换岗。现在，我们每个人都必须以自己的方式在上帝的帮助下响应这一号召。
Thank you, and God bless you all.
谢谢你们。愿上帝保佑大家。
经典译文：克林顿第二次就职演说
同胞们：
藉此二十世纪最后一届总统就职演说之际，让我们睁开眼睛迎接下一世纪我们将面临的挑战。所幸的是，时间和机遇不仅将我们置身于一个新世纪的边缘，一个新的千周年，而且将我们置身于人类事业一个崭新新的、光辉的边缘——一个决定我们未来数十年方向和地位的时刻。我们必须使我们古老的民主永葆青春。在“希望之乡”这一古老憧憬的指引下，让我们着眼于新的“希望之乡”。
美国的希望源于十八世纪一种无畏的信念：人生来皆平等。在十九世纪，我们的国家横跨大陆，拯救了联邦，废除了恐怖的奴隶制的蹂躏，这一信念得以流传和扩展。然后，在辛劳和胜利之中，这种希望奔上了世界的舞台，使本世纪成为美国的世纪。 这是怎样的一个世纪啊。美国成为世界上最强大的工业大国，它把世界从两次世界大战和旷日持久的冷战的暴虐中拯救出来，并且一再向全球上百万像我们一样渴望自由赐福的人们伸出援助之手。 ……
同胞们，让我们建设这样的美国，一个永远前进，以充分发挥全民潜力的国家。是的，我们必须保持繁荣强大。但是，我们不能忘记：我们已取得的伟大成就，我们将取得的伟大的成就，就在人民心中。到最后，整个世界的财富和千支军队都无法与人类精神力量和精神文明相匹敌。
三十四年前，有一个人，他的一生为我们今天所歌颂，他就在那边，在广场的另一端对我们演讲，他的话打动了国民的良知。像是一个古时的预言家，他诉说着他的梦想：有一天美国终会站起来，在法律面前和人们心中所有公民都将得到平等对待。马丁·路德·金的梦是美国之梦。他的要求就是我们的要求，即不断努力实现我们生活信条。我们的历史就建立在这样的梦想和努力上。通过我们的梦想和努力，我们重赎二十一世纪美国的希望。
同胞们，我们不能浪费当前宝贵的时机。因为我们大家都在生命的同一旅途上，我们的旅途会有终点。但我们的美国之路必须走下去。
让我们从此地之峰，从世纪之巅前进。愿上帝给我们强有力的双手，做好未来的工作——并且，永远，永远保佑我们美国。
❸ 克林顿谢任演讲英文
即将离任的美国总统克林顿发表了电视讲话，对他8年任期美国社会、经济各方面的发展作出总结。全文如下：
【原文】
"My fellow citizens, tonight is my last opportunity to speak to you from the Oval Office as your president.
I am profoundly grateful to you for twice giving me the honor to serve, to work for you and with you to prepare
our nation for the 21st century. And I'm grateful to Vice President Gore, to my Cabinet secretaries, and to all
those who have served with me for the last eight years.
This has been a time of dramatic transformation, and you have risen to every new challenge. You have made our
social fabric stronger, our families healthier and safer, our people more prosperous.
You, the American people, have made our passage into the global information age an era of great American renewal.
In all the work I have done as president, every decision I have made, every executive action I have taken, every
bill I have proposed and signed, I've tried to give all Americans the tools and conditions to build the future of
our dreams, in a good society, with a strong economy, a cleaner environment, and a freer, safer, more prosperous world.
I have steered my course by our enring valuess. Opportunity for all. Responsibility from all. A community of all
Americans. I have sought to give America a new kind of government, smaller, more modern, more effective, full of
ideas and policies appropriate to this new time, always putting people first, always focusing on the future.
Working together, America has done well. Our economy is breaking records, with more than 22 million new jobs,
the lowest unemployment in 30 years, the highest home ownership ever, the longest expansion in history.
Our families and communities are stronger. Thirty-five million Americans have used the family leave law.
Eight million have moved off welfare. Crime is at a 25-year low. Over 10 million Americans receive more
college aid, and more people than ever are going to college. Our schools are better -- higher standards, greater
accountability and larger investments have brought higher test scores, and higher graation rates.
More than three million children have health insurance now, and more than 7 million Americans have been
lifted out of poverty. Incomes are rising across the board. Our air and water are cleaner. Our food and drinking
water are safer. And more of our precious land has been preserved, in the continental United States, than at any
time in 100 years.
America has been a force for peace and prosperity in every corner of the globe.
I'm very grateful to be able to turn over the reins of leadership to a new president, with America in such
a strong position to meet the challenges of the future.
Tonight, I want to leave you with three thoughts about our future. First, America must maintain our record
of fiscal responsibility. Through our last four budgets, we've turned record deficits to record surpluses,
and we've been able to pay down $600 billion of our national debt, on track to be debt free by the end of
the decade for the first time since 1835.
Staying on that course will bring lower interest rates, greater prosperity and the opportunity to meet our
big challenges. If we choose wisely, we can pay down the debt, deal with the retirement of the baby boomers,
invest more in our future and provide tax relief.
Second, because the world is more connected every day in every way, America's security and prosperity require
us to continue to lead in the world. At this remarkable moment in history, more people live in freedom that
ever before. Our alliances are stronger than ever. People all around the world look to America to be a force
for peace and prosperity, freedom and security. The global economy is giving more of our own people, and
billions around the world, the chance to work and live and raise their families with dignity.
But the forces of integration that have created these good opportunities also make us more subject to global
forces of destruction, to terrorism, organized crime and narco-trafficking, the spread of deadly weapons and
disease, the degradation of the global environment.
The expansion of trade hasn't fully closed the gap between those of us who live on the cutting edge of the
global economy and the billions around the world who live on the knife's edge of survival. This global gap
requires more than compassion. It requires action. Global poverty is a powder keg that could be ignited by
our indifference.
In his first inaugural address, Thomas Jefferson warned of entangling alliances. But in our times, America
cannot and must not disentangle itself from the world. If we want the world to embody our shared valuess,
then we must assume a shared responsibility.
If the wars of the 20th century, especially the recent ones in Kosovo and Bosnia, have taught us anything,
it is that we achieve our aims by defending our valuess and leading the forces of freedom and peace. We must
embrace boldly and resolutely that ty to lead, to stand with our allies in word and deed, and to put a
human face on the global economy so that expanded trade benefits all people in all nations, lifting lives
and hopes all across the world.
Third, we must remember that America cannot lead in the world unless here at home we weave the threads of
our coat of many colors into the fabric of one America. As we become ever more diverse, we must work harder
to unite around our common valuess and our common humanity.
We must work harder to overcome our differences. In our hearts and in our laws, we must treat all our people
with fairness and dignity, regardless of their race, religion, gender or sexual orientation and regardless
of when they arrived in our country, always moving toward the more perfect union of our founders' dreams.
Hillary, Chelsea and I join all Americans in wishing our very best to the next president, George W. Bush,
to his family and his administration in meeting these challenges and in leading freedom's march in this
new century.
As for me, I'll leave the presidency more idealistic, more full of hope than the day I arrived and more
confident than ever that America's best days lie ahead.
My days in this office are nearly through, but my days of service, I hope, are not. In the years ahead,
I will never hold a position higher or a covenant more sacred than that of president of the United States.
But there is no title I will wear more proudly than that of citizen.
Thank you. God bless you, and God bless America."
【译文】
同胞们，今晚是我最后一次作为你们的总统，在白宫椭圆形办公室向你们做最后一次演讲。
我从心底深处感谢你们给了我两次机会和荣誉，为你们服务，为你们工作，和你们一起为我们的国家进入21世纪做准备。
这里，我要感谢戈尔副总统，我的内阁部长们以及所有伴我度过过去8年的同事们。现在是一个极具变革的年代，你们为迎接
新的挑战已经做好了准备。是你们使我们的社会更加强大，我们的家庭更加健康和安全，我们的人民更加富裕。
同胞们，我们已经进入了全球信息化时代，这是美国复兴的伟大时代。
作为总统，我所做的一切---每一个决定，每一个行政命令，提议和签署的每一项法令，都是在努力为美国人民提供工
具和创造条件，来实现美国的梦想，建设美国的未来---一个美好的社会，繁荣的经济，清洁的环境，进而实现一个更自由、
更安全、更繁荣的世界。
借助我们永恒的价值，我驾驭了我的航程。机会属于每一个美国公民；(我的)责任来自全体美国人民；所有美国人民
组成了一个大家庭。我一直在努力为美国创造一个新型的政府：更小、更现代化、更有效率、面对新时代的挑战充满创意和
思想、永远把人民的利益放在第一位、永远面向未来。
我们在一起使美国变得更加美好。我们的经济正在破着一个又一个的记录，向前发展。我们已创造了2200万个新的工作
岗位，我们的失业率是30年来最低的，老百姓的购房率达到一个空前的高度，我们经济繁荣的持续时间是历史上最长的。
我们的家庭、我们的社会变得更加强大。3500万美国人曾经享受联邦休假，800万人重新获得社会保障，犯罪率是25年
来最低的，1000多万美国人享受更多的入学贷款，更多的人接受大学教育。我们的学校也在改善。更高的办学水平、更大
的责任感和更多的投资使得我们的学生取得更高的考试分数和毕业成绩。
目前，已有300多万美国儿童在享受着医疗保险，700多万美国人已经脱离了贫困线。全国人民的收入在大幅度提高。
我们的空气和水资源更加洁净，食品和饮用水更加安全。我们珍贵的土地资源也得到了近百年来前所未有的保护。
美国已经成为地球上每个角落促进和平和繁荣的积极力量。
我非常高兴能于此时将领导权交给新任总统，强大的美国正面临未来的挑战。
今晚，我希望大家能从以下3点审视我们的未来：第一，美国必须保持它的良好财政状况。通过过去4个财政年度的努力，
我们已经把破纪录的财政赤字变为破纪录的盈余。并且，我们已经偿还了6000亿美元的国债，我们正向10年内彻底偿还国家
债务的目标迈进，这将是1835年以来的第一次。
只要这样做，就会带来更低的利率、更大的经济繁荣，从而能够迎接将来更大的挑战。如果我们做出明智的选择，我们
就能偿还债务，解决(二战后出生的)一大批人们的退休问题，对未来进行更多的投资，并减轻税收。
第二，世界各国的联系日益紧密。为了美国的安全与繁荣，我们应继续融入世界。在这个特别的历史时刻，更多的
美国人民享有前所未有的自由。我们的盟国更加强大。全世界人民期望美国成为和平与繁荣、自由与安全的力量。全球
经济给予美国民众以及全世界人民更多的机会去工作、生活，更体面地养活家庭。
但是，这种世界融合的趋势一方面为我们创造了良好的机会，但同时使得我们在全球范围内更容易遭致破坏性力量、
恐怖主义、有组织的犯罪、贩毒活动，致命性武器和疾病传播的威胁。
尽管世界贸易不断扩大，但它没能缩小处于全球经济繁荣中的我们同数十亿处于死亡边缘的人们之间的距离。
要解决世界贫富两极分化需要的不是同情和怜悯，而是实际行动。贫穷有可能被我们的漠不关心激化而成为火药桶。
托马斯-杰斐逊在他的就职演说中告诫我们结盟的危害。但是，在我们这个时代，美国不能，也不可能使自己脱离这
个世界。如果我们想把我们共有的价值观赋予这个世界，我们必须共同承担起这个责任。
如果20世纪的历次战争，尤其是新近在科索沃地区和波斯尼亚爆发的战争，能够让我们得到某种教训的话，我们从
中得到的启示应是：由于捍卫了我们的价值观并领导了自由和和平的力量，我们才达到了目标。我们必须坚定勇敢地拥抱
这个信念和责任，在语言和行动上与我们的同盟者们站在一起，领导他们按这条道路前进；循着在全球经济中以人为本的
观念，让不断发展的贸易能够使所有国家的所有人受益，在全世界范围内提高他们的生活水平和实现他们的梦想。
第三，我们必须牢记如果我们不团结一致，美国就不能领先世界。随着我们变得越来越多样化，我们必须更加努力地
团结在共同价值观和共同人性的旗帜下。
我们要加倍努力地工作，克服生活中存在的种种分歧。于情于法，我们都要让我们的人民受到公正的待遇，不论他是
哪一个民族、信仰何种宗教、什么性别或性倾向，或者何时来到这个国家。我们时时刻刻都要为了实现先辈们建立高度团
结的美利坚合众国的梦想而奋斗。
希拉里、切尔西和我同美国人民一起，向即将就任的布什总统、他的家人及美国新政府致以衷心的祝福，希望新政府
能够勇敢面对挑战，并高扛自由大旗在新世纪阔步前进。
对我来说，当我离开总统宝座时，我充满更多的理想，比初进白宫时更加充满希望，并且坚信美国的好日子还在后面。
我的总统任期就要结束了，但是我希望我为美国人民服务的日子永远不会结束。在我未来的岁月里，我再也不会担任
一个能比美利坚合众国总统更高的职位、签订一个比美利坚合众国总统所能签署的更为神圣的契约了。当然，没有任何一个
头衔能让我比作为一个美国公民更为自豪的了。
谢谢你们！愿上帝保佑你们！愿上帝保佑美国！

组成了一个大家庭。我一直在努力为美国创造一个新型的政府：更小、更现代化、更有效率、面对新时代的挑战充满创意和
思想、永远把人民的利益放在第一位、永远面向未来。
我们在一起使美国变得更加美好。我们的经济正在破着一个又一个的记录，向前发展。我们已创造了2200万个新的工作
岗位，我们的失业率是30年来最低的，老百姓的购房率达到一个空前的高度，我们经济繁荣的持续时间是历史上最长的。
我们的家庭、我们的社会变得更加强大。3500万美国人曾经享受联邦休假，800万人重新获得社会保障，犯罪率是25年
来最低的，1000多万美国人享受更多的入学贷款，更多的人接受大学教育。我们的学校也在改善。更高的办学水平、更大
的责任感和更多的投资使得我们的学生取得更高的考试分数和毕业成绩。
目前，已有300多万美国儿童在享受着医疗保险，700多万美国人已经脱离了贫困线。全国人民的收入在大幅度提高。
我们的空气和水资源更加洁净，食品和饮用水更加安全。我们珍贵的土地资源也得到了近百年来前所未有的保护。
美国已经成为地球上每个角落促进和平和繁荣的积极力量。
我非常高兴能于此时将领导权交给新任总统，强大的美国正面临未来的挑战。
今晚，我希望大家能从以下3点审视我们的未来：第一，美国必须保持它的良好财政状况。通过过去4个财政年度的努力，
我们已经把破纪录的财政赤字变为破纪录的盈余。并且，我们已经偿还了6000亿美元的国债，我们正向10年内彻底偿还国家
债务的目标迈进，这将是1835年以来的第一次。
只要这样做，就会带来更低的利率、更大的经济繁荣，从而能够迎接将来更大的挑战。如果我们做出明智的选择，我们
就能偿还债务，解决(二战后出生的)一大批人们的退休问题，对未来进行更多的投资，并减轻税收。
第二，世界各国的联系日益紧密。为了美国的安全与繁荣，我们应继续融入世界。在这个特别的历史时刻，更多的
美国人民享有前所未有的自由。我们的盟国更加强大。全世界人民期望美国成为和平与繁荣、自由与安全的力量。全球
经济给予美国民众以及全世界人民更多的机会去工作、生活，更体面地养活家庭。
但是，这种世界融合的趋势一方面为我们创造了良好的机会，但同时使得我们在全球范围内更容易遭致破坏性力量、
恐怖主义、有组织的犯罪、贩毒活动，致命性武器和疾病传播的威胁。
尽管世界贸易不断扩大，但它没能缩小处于全球经济繁荣中的我们同数十亿处于死亡边缘的人们之间的距离。
要解决世界贫富两极分化需要的不是同情和怜悯，而是实际行动。贫穷有可能被我们的漠不关心激化而成为火药桶。
托马斯-杰斐逊在他的就职演说中告诫我们结盟的危害。但是，在我们这个时代，美国不能，也不可能使自己脱离这
个世界。如果我们想把我们共有的价值观赋予这个世界，我们必须共同承担起这个责任。
如果20世纪的历次战争，尤其是新近在科索沃地区和波斯尼亚爆发的战争，能够让我们得到某种教训的话，我们从
中得到的启示应是：由于捍卫了我们的价值观并领导了自由和和平的力量，我们才达到了目标。我们必须坚定勇敢地拥抱
这个信念和责任，在语言和行动上与我们的同盟者们站在一起，领导他们按这条道路前进；循着在全球经济中以人为本的
观念，让不断发展的贸易能够使所有国家的所有人受益，在全世界范围内提高他们的生活水平和实现他们的梦想。
第三，我们必须牢记如果我们不团结一致，美国就不能领先世界。随着我们变得越来越多样化，我们必须更加努力地
团结在共同价值观和共同人性的旗帜下。
我们要加倍努力地工作，克服生活中存在的种种分歧。于情于法，我们都要让我们的人民受到公正的待遇，不论他是
哪一个民族、信仰何种宗教、什么性别或性倾向，或者何时来到这个国家。我们时时刻刻都要为了实现先辈们建立高度团
结的美利坚合众国的梦想而奋斗。
希拉里、切尔西和我同美国人民一起，向即将就任的布什总统、他的家人及美国新政府致以衷心的祝福，希望新政府
能够勇敢面对挑战，并高扛自由大旗在新世纪阔步前进。
对我来说，当我离开总统宝座时，我充满更多的理想，比初进白宫时更加充满希望，并且坚信美国的好日子还在后面。
我的总统任期就要结束了，但是我希望我为美国人民服务的日子永远不会结束。在我未来的岁月里，我再也不会担任
一个能比美利坚合众国总统更高的职位、签订一个比美利坚合众国总统所能签署的更为神圣的契约了。当然，没有任何一个
头衔能让我比作为一个美国公民更为自豪的了。
谢谢你们！愿上帝保佑你们！愿上帝保佑美国！

Inaugural Address of William Jefferson Clinton
My fellow citizens:
Today we celebrate the mystery of American renewal.
This ceremony is held in the depth of winter. But, by the words we speak and the faces we show the world, we force the spring.
A spring reborn in the world's oldest democracy, that brings forth the vision and courage to reinvent America.
When our founders boldly declared America's independence to the world and our purposes to the Almighty, they knew that America, to enre, would have to change.
Not change for change's sake, but change to preserve America's ideals—life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness. Though we march to the music of our time, our mission is timeless.
Each generation of Americans must define what it means to be an American.
On behalf of our nation, I salute my predecessor, President Bush, for his half-century of service to America.
And I thank the millions of men and women whose steadfastness and sacrifice triumphed over Depression, fascism and Communism.
Today, a generation raised in the shadows of the Cold War assumes new responsibilities in a world warmed by the sunshine of freedom but threatened still by ancient hatreds and new plagues.
Raised in unrivaled prosperity, we inherit an economy that is still the world's strongest, but is weakened by business failures, stagnant wages, increasing inequality, and deep divisions among our people.
When George Washington first took the oath I have just sworn to uphold, news traveled slowly across the land by horseback and across the ocean by boat. Now, the sights and sounds of this ceremony are broadcast instantaneously to billions around the world.
Communications and commerce are global; investment is mobile; technology is almost magical; and ambition for a better life is now universal. We earn our livelihood in peaceful competition with people all across the earth.
Profound and powerful forces are shaking and remaking our world, and the urgent question of our time is whether we can make change our friend and not our enemy.
This new world has already enriched the lives of millions of Americans who are able to compete and win in it. But when most people are working harder for less; when others cannot work at all; when the cost of health care devastates families and threatens to bankrupt many of our enterprises, great and small; when fear of crime robs law-abiding citizens of their freedom; and when millions of poor children cannot even imagine the lives we are calling them to lead—we have not made change our friend.
We know we have to face hard truths and take strong steps. But we have not done so. Instead, we have drifted, and that drifting has eroded our resources, fractured our economy, and shaken our confidence.
Though our challenges are fearsome, so are our strengths. And Americans have ever been a restless, questing, hopeful people. We must bring to our task today the vision and will of those who came before us.
From our revolution, the Civil War, to the Great Depression to the civil rights movement, our people have always mustered the determination to construct from these crises the pillars of our history.
Thomas Jefferson believed that to preserve the very foundations of our nation, we would need dramatic change from time to time. Well, my fellow citizens, this is our time. Let us embrace it.
Our democracy must be not only the envy of the world but the engine of our own renewal. There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America.
And so today, we pledge an end to the era of deadlock and drift—a new season of American renewal has begun.
To renew America, we must be bold.
We must do what no generation has had to do before. We must invest more in our own people, in their jobs, in their future, and at the same time cut our massive debt. And we must do so in a world in which we must compete for every opportunity.
It will not be easy; it will require sacrifice. But it can be done, and done fairly, not choosing sacrifice for its own sake, but for our own sake. We must provide for our nation the way a family provides for its children.
Our Founders saw themselves in the light of posterity. We can do no less. Anyone who has ever watched a child's eyes wander into sleep knows what posterity is. Posterity is the world to come—the world for whom we hold our ideals, from whom we have borrowed our planet, and to whom we bear sacred responsibility.
We must do what America does best: offer more opportunity to all and demand responsibility from all.
It is time to break the bad habit of expecting something for nothing, from our government or from each other. Let us all take more responsibility, not only for ourselves and our families but for our communities and our country. 26
To renew America, we must revitalize our democracy.
This beautiful capital, like every capital since the dawn of civilization, is often a place of intrigue and calculation. Powerful people maneuver for position and worry endlessly about who is in and who is out, who is up and who is down, forgetting those people whose toil and sweat sends us here and pays our way.
Americans deserve better, and in this city today, there are people who want to do better. And so I say to all of us here, let us resolve to reform our politics, so that power and privilege no longer shout down the voice of the people. Let us put aside personal advantage so that we can feel the pain and see the promise of America.
Let us resolve to make our government a place for what Franklin Roosevelt called "bold, persistent experimentation," a government for our tomorrows, not our yesterdays.
Let us give this capital back to the people to whom it belongs.
To renew America, we must meet challenges abroad as well at home. There is no longer division between what is foreign and what is domestic—the world economy, the world environment, the world AIDS crisis, the world arms race—they affect us all.
Today, as an old order passes, the new world is more free but less stable. Communism's collapse has called forth old animosities and new dangers. Clearly America must continue to lead the world we did so much to make.
While America rebuilds at home, we will not shrink from the challenges, nor fail to seize the opportunities, of this new world. Together with our friends and allies, we will work to shape change, lest it engulf us.
When our vital interests are challenged, or the will and conscience of the international community is defied, we will act—with peaceful diplomacy when ever possible, with force when necessary. The brave Americans serving our nation today in the Persian Gulf, in Somalia, and wherever else they stand are testament to our resolve.
But our greatest strength is the power of our ideas, which are still new in many lands. Across the world, we see them embraced—and we rejoice. Our hopes, our hearts, our hands, are with those on every continent who are building democracy and freedom. Their cause is America's cause.
The American people have summoned the change we celebrate today. You have raised your voices in an unmistakable chorus. You have cast your votes in historic numbers. And you have changed the face of Congress, the presidency and the political process itself. Yes, you, my fellow Americans have forced the spring. Now, we must do the work the season demands.
To that work I now turn, with all the authority of my office. I ask the Congress to join with me. But no president, no Congress, no government, can undertake this mission alone. My fellow Americans, you, too, must play your part in our renewal. I challenge a new generation of young Americans to a season of service—to act on your idealism by helping troubled children, keeping company with those in need, reconnecting our torn communities. There is so much to be done—enough indeed for millions of others who are still young in spirit to give of themselves in service, too.
In serving, we recognize a simple but powerful truth—we need each other. And we must care for one another. Today, we do more than celebrate America; we rededicate ourselves to the very idea of America.
An idea born in revolution and renewed through 2 centuries of challenge. An idea tempered by the knowledge that, but for fate, we—the fortunate and the unfortunate—might have been each other. An idea ennobled by the faith that our nation can summon from its myriad diversity the deepest measure of unity. An idea infused with the conviction that America's long heroic journey must go forever upward.
And so, my fellow Americans, at the edge of the 21st century, let us begin with energy and hope, with faith and discipline, and let us work until our work is done. The scripture says, "And let us not be weary in well-doing, for in e season, we shall reap, if we faint not."
From this joyful mountaintop of celebration, we hear a call to service in the valley. We have heard the trumpets. We have changed the guard. And now, each in our way, and with God's help, we must answer the call.
Thank you and God bless you all.
威廉·杰弗逊首次就职演说的克林顿
我的同胞们。
今天,我们庆祝这个神秘的美国的更新。
这个仪式是隆冬之际。但是,我们说的话和我们向世界展示我们力量,春天。
在春天的重生,世界上最古老的民主,带来了视觉和勇气重新定义美国。
当我们宣布美国独立的创始人大胆的世界,我们的目的,全能者,他们意识到美国,一直持续下去,就必须改变。
没有变化,但对改变的缘故,保持美国的ideals-life变化、自由、追求幸福的权利。虽然我们行军到音乐,我们的时间,我们的使命是永恒的。
每一代美国人必须确定这是什么意思,是一个美国人。
我们国家的代表,我问候我的前任总统,因为他的服务去美国。只剩
我感谢数以百万计的人们,他们的决心和牺牲战胜忧郁,法西斯主义和共产主义。
今天,一个世代的阴影在冷战中承担的新职责的世界温暖的阳光的自由,但仍以古老的仇恨和威胁的新灾难。
在无与伦比的繁荣,我们承受美国经济仍然是世界上最好的,不过是被削弱的生意失败,工资停滞,增加不公,深刻分歧。
当乔治。华盛顿第一宣誓我刚刚宣誓拥护,慢慢地走在消息通过马背,横渡海洋乘船。现在,这个仪式的景象和声音播放给全世界的数十亿美元。
通讯和商业投资是全球性的,是移动;技术几乎是不可思议的,和对美好生活的野心是现在普遍。我们生活在和平与人竞争过地球。
深刻和强大的势力和改造我们的世界的震动,迫切的问题,我们的时间是我们是否可以改变我们的朋友,而不是我们的敌人。
这个新的世界已经丰富了数以万计的美国人,他们能够在竞争中获胜。但当大多数人更努力地工作,更少;当别人不能奏效;当保健费用中将家庭和威胁到我们的许多企业破产时,大、小;对犯罪的恐惧剥夺他们的自由;守法的公民,当数以百万计的穷孩子甚至无法想象我们是打电话给他们的生活lead-we没有变化,我们的朋友。
我们知道我们必须面对艰苦真理和采取有力措施。但我们还没有这么做。相反,我们已经漂泊,漂流降低了我们的资源,我们的经济,并动摇我们的信心。
虽然我们的挑战是可怕的,所以是我们的优势。和美国人曾经是一个不安于现状,充满希望的人,。我们必须使我们的愿景,将今天的任务摆在我们面前的人来。
从我们的革命,内战,大萧条时期民权运动,我们的人总是鼓起决心从这些危机构建的柱子,我们的历史。
托马斯·杰弗逊认为,保护我们的国家基础,我们将需要戏剧性的变化。哦,我的同胞们,这是我们的时间。让我们拥抱它。
我们的民主,不仅要羡慕的世界,但是发动机自己的更新。有什么毛病,不能治愈的美国和美国是正确的事。
所以今天,我们承诺结束僵局,drift-a时代的新赛季已经开始对美国更新。
重温美,我们必须勇敢。
我们必须做任何一代已做过。我们必须进行更多的投资在我们自己的人,在他们的工作,他们的未来,同时削减我们的巨大的债务。我们必须这样做的这个世界,我们必须争取每一个机会。
这可不是件容易的事,它需要牺牲。但它可以做,做公平、不选择牺牲自己,乃是为自己的缘故。我们必须为我们的国家的家庭提供其子女。
我们的先辈们看到自己的后代。我们所能做的也不少。谁曾经看孩子的眼睛闯入睡眠知道女儿。come-the是世界上我们所持有的理想,我们已经借了我们的星球,就是我们承担神圣的责任。
我们必须做什么美国最好的:提供更多的机会和需求从所有的一切责任。
现在是时候把这坏习惯等东西,从我们的政府或从对方。让我们所有人承担更多的责任,而不是仅为我们自己和我们的家庭,但对于我们的社区和我们的国家
更新的美国,我们必须修复我们的民主。
这美丽的首都,像每个资本从文明的起源,通常是一处的阴谋和计算方法。强大的位置和担心人们演习中关于是谁和谁出去,谁是谁,忘记那些辛劳和汗水送给我们。我们在这里和支付。
美国人应该得到更好的,在这个城市的今天,有些人想要做得更好。于是我说,我们所有的人都在这里,让我们下定决心改革我们的政治权力与特权,以致不再呼喊的声音的人。让我们放下个人利益,以便我们能感到痛苦和看到美国的承诺。
让我们把我们的政府为什麽叫做“大胆富兰克林•罗斯福的、持续的实验,政府是为我们的明天,我们昨天。
让我们把这资本回到了人们的归属。
更新,我们必须接受挑战美国国外在家。不再有什么是区分什么是domestic-the外国与世界经济、环境、艾滋病危机,世界军备race-they影响到我们所有的人。
今天,当旧秩序,新的世界更加自由,但不稳定。共产主义的崩溃已经招致老animosities和新的危险。很明显,美国将继续领导我们为之付出很多的世界。
虽然美国重建在家,我们不会缩水的挑战,也未能抓住这个机会,这个崭新的世界。与我们的朋友和盟友,我们将努力形状变化,以免它吞噬我们。
当我们的切身利益都是一种挑战,或将与国际社会的良心是违抗,我们将act-with和平的外交手段,以武力的时候曾经在必要的时候。我们国家的勇敢的美国士兵在波斯湾的今天,在索马里,还有其它地方,他们都见证了我们的决心。
但是我们最大的力量的权力,我们的想法,这在许多国家还不。在全世界范围内,我们看到他们为人接受,而且我们喜乐。我们希望,我们的心,我们的手,和那些在每个洲都是建筑的民主和自由。其原因是美国的原因。
美国人民已经改变,我们庆祝今天传唤。你的声音,你已经引起了一个明确的合唱。你已经投票吧在历史性的编号。你已经改变了脸,总统和国会的政治过程本身。是的,你,我的美国同胞们不得不春天。现在,我们必须做的工作要求本赛季。
我现在的工作,我的办公室的一切权力。我请求国会,跟我一起学习。但不管你是总统,不大会,没有一个政府,能承担这一任务。我的美国同胞们,你们也一定要打你参加我们的更新。我挑战新一代的年轻的美国人一个赛季你理想的商家,以帮助管教的孩子与那些需要的人,另我们社区。破有这么多的是done-enough的确为数百万人仍然是年轻的灵魂给自己的服务。
在服务,我们认识一个简单而有力的truth-we相辅相成。我们要互相照顾。今天,我们庆祝美国比我们;我们主持的美国。
一个想法出生在革命和更新通过2世纪的挑战。一个想法获得知识,但对命运的安排,we-the幸运和unfortunate-might被对方。一个想法肃然起敬的信心,我们的国家可以召唤从无数的多样性最深的统一。一个想法融入坚信美国的漫长旅程必须永远英勇向上。
所以,我的美国同胞们,在21世纪,让我们从现在开始,能源和希望,以信心和纪律,并让我们工作到我们的工作完成。经上说:“让我们不疲倦的良善、收获的季节,我们,如果我们不灰心。”
从这欢乐的山顶,我们听到一个值得庆祝的电话服务在利乏音谷。我们已经听到小号。我们已经改变了。现在,每一个在我们的方式,与神的帮助下,我们必须接听电话。
谢谢你,上帝保佑你。

克林顿第二次就职演说
同胞们：
藉此二十世纪最后一届总统就职演说之际，让我们睁开眼睛迎接下一世纪我们将面临的挑战。所幸的是，时间和机遇不仅将我们置身于一个新世纪的边缘，一个新的千周年，而且将我们置身于人类事业一个崭新新的、光辉的边缘——一个决定我们未来数十年方向和地位的时刻。我们必须使我们古老的民主永葆青春。在“希望之乡”这一古老憧憬的指引下，让我们着眼于新的“希望之乡”。
美国的希望源于十八世纪一种无畏的信念：人生来皆平等。在十九世纪，我们的国家横跨大陆，拯救了联邦，废除了恐怖的奴隶制的蹂躏。
这一信念得以流传和扩展。然后，在辛劳和胜利之中，这种希望奔上了世界的舞台，使本世纪成为美国的世纪。
这是怎样的一个世纪啊。美国成为世界上最强大的工业大国，它把世界从两次世界大战和旷日持久的冷战的暴虐中拯救出来，并且一再向全球上百万像我们一样渴望自由赐福的人们伸出援助之手。
在这一进程中，美国产生 了庞大的中产阶级和老年人保险制度，建立了无与伦比的学习中心，并对全民开放公立学校，分裂了原子且探索了太空，发明了计算机和微芯片，通过发起一场非裔美国人和少数民族的民权革命，及扩大妇女的公民权利，就业机会和人身尊严，而深掘了正义之泉。
现在，也是第三次，一个新世纪来到我们面前，这又是一个选择的时候，我们进入十九世纪时有一个选择，使得我们国家从一个海岸扩展到另一个海岸，我们进入二十世纪时又有一个选择，使得工业革命能符合我们的价值观，即自由经营，水土保持，和恪守人类正义，这些选择使得一切迥然不同。
在二十一世纪曙光来临之际，一个自由的民族必须做出选择，去打造信息时代和全球一体化的力量。去释放全民无尽的潜能，并且，去成就一个更完美的联邦国家。
上次我们在此相聚时，我们向这个新未来的进军似乎没有今天这么明确，我们那时曾宣誓 确立新的道路，复兴我们的国家。
在这四年中，我们感到悲剧带来的触动，挑战带来的兴奋，成就带来的增强，美国作为世界不可缺少的国家巍然挺立，再一次， 我们的经济是世界上最强大的经济，再一次，我们建设着更牢固的家庭，繁荣的社区，更好的教育机会，更清洁的环境，曾经似乎注定要恶化的问题现在也屈服于我们 的努力，我们的街道更安全，我们的同胞有创记录的人数已从福利走向工作。
再一次，我们解决了当前关于政府角色问题的巨大争论。 今天我们可以宣告：政府不是问题的产生者，政府也不是问题的解决者，我们-美国人民-我们才是问题的解决者，我们的缔造者深深地了解这一点，他们给予我们的民主强壮的足以持续几个世纪。柔韧地足以在每一新的日子里迎接我们共同的挑战并推进我们共同的梦想。
同胞们，让我们建设这样的美国，一个永远前进，以充分发挥全民潜力的国家。是的，我们必须保持繁荣强大。但是，我们不能忘记：我们已取得的伟大成就，我们将取得的伟大的成就，就在人民心中。到最后，整个世界的财富和千支军队都无法与人类精神力量和精神文明相匹敌。
三十四年前，有一个人，他的一生为我们今天所歌颂，他就在那边，在广场的另一端对我们演讲，他的话打动了国民的良知。像是一个古时的预言家，他诉说着他的梦想：有一天美国终会站起来，在法律面前和人们心中所有公民都将得到平等对待。马丁·路德·金的梦是美国之梦。他的要求就是我们的要求，即不断努力实现我们生活信条。我们的历史就建立在这样的梦想和努力上。通过我们的梦想和努力，我们重赎二十一世纪美国的希望。
同胞们，我们不能浪费当前宝贵的时机。因为我们大家都在生命的同一旅途上，我们的旅途会有终点。但我们的美国之路必须走下去。
我们还看不到我们的后代的面孔，也永远不会知道他们的名字，但是当他们谈论到我们的时候，希望他们会说我们把祖国领进了新的世纪，把有活力的美国梦留给了所有的子孙
让我们从此地之峰，从世纪之巅前进。愿上帝给我们强有力的双手，做好未来的工作——并且，永远，永远保佑我们美国。

My fellow citizens:
At this last presidential inauguration of the 20th century, let us lift our eyes toward the challenges that await us in the next century. It is our great good fortune that time and chance have put us not only at the edge of a new century, in a new millennium, but on the edge of a bright new prospect in human affairs -- a moment that will define our course, and our character, for decades to come. We must keep our old democracy forever young. Guided by the ancient vision of a promised land, let us set our sights upon a land of new promise.
The promise of America was born in the 18th century out of the bold conviction that we are all created equal. It was extended and preserved in the 19th century, when our nation spread across the continent, saved the union, and abolished the awful scourge of slavery.
Then, in turmoil and triumph, that promise exploded onto the world stage to make this the American Century. And what a century it has been. America became the world s mightiest instrial power; saved the world from tyranny in two world wars and a long cold war; and time and again, reached out across the globe to millions who, like us, longed for the blessings of liberty.
Along the way, Americans proced a great middle class and security in old age; built unrivaled centers of learning and opened public schools to all; split the atom and explored the heavens; invented the computer and the microchip; and deepened the wellspring of justice by making a revolution in civil rights for African Americans and all minorities, and extending the circle of citizenship, opportunity and dignity to women.
Now, for the third time, a new century is upon us, and another time to choose. We began the 19th century with a choice, to spread our nation from coast to coast. We began the 20th century with a choice, to harness the Instrial Revolution to our values of free enterprise, conservation, and human decency. Those choices made all the difference. At the dawn of the 21st century a free people must now choose to shape the forces of the Information Age and the global society, to unleash the limitless potential of all our people, and, yes, to form a more perfect union.
When last we gathered, our march to this new future seemed less certain than it does today. We vowed then to set a clear course to renew our nation.
In these four years, we have been touched by tragedy, exhilarated by challenge, strengthened by achievement. America

dispensable nation. Once again, our economy is the strongest on Earth. Once again, we are building stronger families, thriving communities, better ecational opportunities, a cleaner environment. Problems that once seemed destined to deepen now bend to our efforts: our streets are safer and record numbers of our fellow citizens have moved from welfare to work.
And once again, we have resolved for our time a great debate over the role of government. Today we can declare: Government is not the problem, and government is not the solution. We -- the American people -- we are the solution. (Applause.) Our founders understood that well and gave us a democracy strong enough to enre for centuries, flexible enough to face our common challenges and advance our common dreams in each new day.
As times change, so government must change. We need a new government for a new century -- humble enough not to try to solve all our problems for us, but strong enough to give us the tools to solve our problems for ourselves; a government that is smaller, lives within its means, and does more with less. Yet where it can stand up for our values and interests in the world, and where it can give Americans the power to make a real difference in their everyday lives, government should do more, not less. The preeminent mission of our new government is to give all Americans an opportunity -- not a guarantee, but a real opportunity -- to build better lives. (Applause.)
Beyond that, my fellow citizens, the future is up to us. Our founders taught us that the preservation of our liberty and our union depends upon responsible citizenship. And we need a new sense of responsibility for a new century. There is work to do, work that government alone cannot do: teaching children to read; hiring people off welfare rolls; coming out from behind locked doors and shuttered windows to help reclaim our streets from drugs and gangs and crime; taking time out of our own lives to serve others.
Each and every one of us, in our own way, must assume personal responsibility -- not only for ourselves and our families, but for our neighbors and our nation. (Applause.) Our greatest responsibility is to embrace a new spirit of community for a new century. For any one of us to succeed, we must succeed as one
America.
The challenge of our past remains the challenge of our future -- will we be one nation, one people, with one common destiny, or not? Will we all come together, or come apart?
The divide of race has been America s constant curse. And each new wave of immigrants gives new targets to old prejudices. Prejudice and contempt, cloaked in the pretense of religious or political conviction are no different. (Applause.) These forces have nearly destro
❾ 克林顿就职演说 英语总结
美国复兴的新时代 比尔•克林顿 第一次就职演讲
星期三,1993年1月20日
同胞们：
今天，我们庆祝美国复兴的奇迹。这个仪式虽在隆冬举行，然而，我们通过自己的言语和向世界展示的面容、却促使春回大地--回到了世界上这个最古老的民主国家，并带来了重新创造美国的远见和勇气。
当我国的缔造者勇敢地向世界宣布美国独立，并向上帝表明自 己的目的时，他们知道，美国若要永存，就必须变革。不是为变革而变革，而是为了维护美国的理想--为了生命、自由和追求幸福而变革。尽管我们随着当今时代 的节拍前进，但我们的使命永恒不变。每一代美国人，部必须为作为一个美国人意味着什么下定义。今天，在冷战阴影下成长起来的一代人，在世界上负起了新的责 任。这个世界虽然沐浴着自由的阳光，但仍受到旧仇宿怨和新的祸患的威胁。
我们在无与伦比的繁荣中长大，继承了仍然是世界上最强大的经济。但由于企业倒闭，工资增长停滞、不平等状况加剧，人民的分歧加深，我们的经济已经削弱。
当乔治•华盛顿第一次宣读我刚才宜读的誓言时，人们骑马把 那个信息缓慢地传遍大地，继而又来船把它传过海洋。而现在，这个仪式的情景和声音即刻向全球几十亿人播放。通信和商务具有全球性，投资具有流动性；技术几 乎具有魔力；改善生活的理想现在具有普遍性。今天，我们美国人通过同世界各地人民进行和平竞争来谋求生存。各种深远而强大的力量正在震撼和改造我们的世 界，当今时代的当务之急是我们能否使变革成为我们的朋友，而不是成为我们的敌人。
这个新世界已经使几百万能够参与竞争并且取胜的美国人过上 了富裕的生活。但是，当多数人干得越多反而挣得越少的时候，当有些人根本不可能工作的时候，当保健费用的重负使众多家庭不堪承受、使大大小小的企业濒临破 产的时候，当犯罪活动的恐惧使守法公民不能自由行动的时候，当千百万贫穷儿童甚至不能想象我们呼唤他们过的那种生活的时候，我们就没有使变革成为我们的朋 友。我们知道，我们必须面对严酷的事实真相，并采取强有力的步骤。但我们没有这样做，而是听之任之，以致损耗了我们的资源，破坏了我们的经济，动摇了我们 的信心。
我们面临惊人的挑战，但我们同样具有惊人的力量，美国人历来是不安现状、不断追求和充满希望的民族，今天，我们必须把前人的远见卓识和坚强意志带到我们的任务中去。从革命，内战，大萧条，直到民权运动，我国人民总是下定决心，从历次危机中构筑我国历史的支柱。
托马斯•杰斐逊认为，为了维护我国的根基，我们需要时常进行激动人心的变革。美国同胞们，我们的时代就是变革的时代，让我们拥抱这个时代吧！
我们的民主制度不仅要成为举世称羡的目标，而且要成为举国复兴的动力。美国没有任何错误的东西不能被正确的东西所纠正。因此，我们今天立下誓言，要结束这个僵持停顿、放任自流的时代，一个复兴美国的新时代已经开始。
我们要复兴美国，就必须鼓足勇气。我们必须做前人无需做的 事情。我们必须更多地投资于人民，投资于他们的工作和未来，与此同时，我们必须减少巨额债务。而且，我们必须在一个需要为每个机会而竞争的世界上做到这一 切。这样做并不容易：这样做要求作出牺牲。但是，这是做得到的，而且能做得公平合理。我们不是为牺牲而牺牲，我们必须像家庭供养子女那样供养自己的国家。
我国的缔造者是用子孙后代的眼光来审视自己的。我们也必须 这样做。凡是注意过孩子蒙?o人睡的人，都知道后代意味着什么，后代就是将要到来的世界--我们为之坚持自己的理想，我们向之借用这个星球，我们对之负有 神圣的责任。我们必须做美国最拿手的事情：为所有的人提供更多的机会，要所有的人负起更多的责任。
现在是破除只求向政府和别人免费索取的恶习的时候了。让我们大家不仅为自己和家庭，而且为社区和国家担负起更多的责任吧。
我们要复兴美国，就必须恢复我们民主制度的活力。这个美丽的首都，就像文明的曙光出现以来的每一个首都一样，常常是尔虞我诈、明争暗斗之地。大腕人物争权夺势，没完没了地为官员的更替升降而烦神，却忘记了那些用辛勤和汗水把我们送到这里来，并养活了我们的人。
美国人理应得到更好的回报。在这个城市里，今天有人想把事 情办得更好一些。因此，我要时所有在场的人说：让我们下定决心改革政治，使权力和特权的喧嚣不再压倒人民的呼声。让我们撇开个人利益。这样我们就能觉察美 国的病痛，并看到官的希望。让我们下定决心，使政府成为富兰克林•罗斯福所说的进行"大胆而持久试验"的地方，成为一个面向未来而不是留恋过去的政府。让 我们把这个首都归还给它所属于的人民。
我们要复兴美国，就必须迎接国内外的种种挑战。国外和国内事务之间已不再有明确的界限--世界经济，世界环境，世界艾滋病危机，世界军备竞赛，这一切都在影响着我们大家。
我们在国内进行重建的同时，面对这个新世界的挑战不会退缩不前，也下会坐失良机。我们将同盟友一起努力进行变革，以免被变革所吞没。当我们的重要利益受到挑战，或者，当国际社会的意志和良知受到蔑视，我们将采取行动--可能时就采用和平外交手段，必要时就使用武力。
今天，在波斯湾、索马里和任何其他地方为国效力的勇敢的美国人，都证明了我们的决心。
但是，我们最伟大的力量是我们思想的威力。这些思想在许多国家仍然处于萌芽阶段。看到这些思想在世界各地被接受，我们感到欢欣鼓舞。我们的希望，我们的心，与每一个大陆正在建立民主和自由的人们是连在一起的。他们的事业也是美国的事业。
美国人民唤来了我们今天所庆祝的变革。你们毫不含糊地齐声疾呼。你们以前所未有的人数参加了投票。你们使国会、总统职务和政治进程本身全都面目一新。是的，是你们，我的美国同胞们，促使春回大地。
现在，我们必须做这个季节需要做的工作。现在，我就运用我的全部职权转向这项工作。我请求国会同我一道做这项工作。任何总统、任何国会、任何政府都不能单独完成这一使命。同胞们，在我国复兴的过程中，你们也必须发挥作用。
我向新一代美国年轻人挑战，要求你们投入这一奉献的季节--按照你们的理想主义行动起来，使不幸的儿童得到帮助，使贫困的人们得到关怀，使四分五裂的社区恢复联系。要做的事情很多--确实够多的，以至几百万在精神上仍然年轻的人也可作出奉献。
在奉献过程中，我们认识到相互需要这一简单而又强大的真 理。我们必须相互关心.今天，我们不仅是在赞颂美国，我们再一次把自己奉献给美国的理想：这个理想在革命中诞生，在两个世纪的挑战中更新；这个理想经受了 认识的考验，大家认识到，若不是命运的安排，幸运者或不幸者有可能互换位置；这个理想由于一种信念而变得崇高，即我国能够从纷繁的多佯性中实现最深刻的统 一性，这个理想洋溢着一种信：美国漫长而英勇的旅程必将永远继续。同胞们，在我恻即将跨入21世纪之际，让我们以旺盛的精力和满腔的希望，以坚定的信心和 严明的纪律开始工作，直到把工作完成。《圣经》说："我们行善，不可丧志，若不灰心，到了时候，就要收成。"
在这个欢乐的山巅，我们听见山谷里传来了要我们作出奉献的召唤。我们听到了号角声。我们已经换岗。现在，我们必须以各自的方式，在上帝的帮助下响应这一召唤。
谢谢大家。上帝保佑大家。

(APPLAUSE)
I know well that no one's presence can change a single vote, but I hope my reasons can affect a few votes.
I love this city and this state. You've been very good to me, to my family.
(APPLAUSE)
And you've got a clear choice between two strong men with great convictions and different philosophies, different policies with very different consequences for this city, this state, our nation and the world.
On the economy, we have just lived through four years of the first job losses in 70 years, record bankruptcies, middle-class incomes declining and poverty going up.
In Pennsylvania alone, you've lost 70,000 jobs as compared with the 219,000 you gained by this time when that last fellow was president -- me.
(APPLAUSE)
In Pennsylvania alone, 249,000 people have been added to the rolls of poverty, falling out of the middle class, as compared with 395,000 people who moved from poverty into the middle class the last time we had a Democratic administration; 333,000 Pennsylvanians have lost their health insurance; unemployment's gone up 26 percent. It dropped 35 percent in the first four years the last time we had a Democratic administration.
CLINTON: Their plan is more of the same. They gave two huge tax cuts to upper-income people like me and to special interest
