Our Dreams - Speech One
Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone,
Today, I am honored to stand before you and share our dreams. Dreams hold a special place in our hearts and serve as a guiding light on our journey to success. They inspire us, motivate us, and push us to go beyond our limits. Each one of us has dreams, and today, I want to talk about our dreams as a collective.
Our dream is to create a world filled with love, compassion, and equality. We dream of a world where every individual is treated with respect, regardless of their race, gender, or background. We envision a society where everyone has access to quality education, healthcare, and opportunities to thrive. Our dream is to eradicate poverty and ensure that every person has a chance to live a dignified life.
But dreams are not just about the big picture. They are also about personal growth and self-improvement. Our dream is to become the best version of ourselves. We aspire to develop our skills and talents, to constantly learn and grow. We dream of making a positive impact on the lives of others and leaving a lasting legacy.
However, dreams alone are not enough. It takes hard work, determination, and perseverance to turn our dreams into reality. We must set goals, make plans, and take action. We must overcome obstacles and face challenges head-on. It won't always be easy, but we believe in the power of our dreams and the strength within us to achieve them.
Together, we can make a difference. By supporting each other, collaborating, and working towards a common goal, we can turn our dreams into a shared reality. We can create a ripple effect that will inspire others to dream big and take action. Our dreams have the power to change the world, and it starts with us.
In conclusion, our dreams are not just fantasies or wishful thinking. They are the fuel that ignites our spirits and propels us forward. Our dreams give us purpose and drive. They remind us of our potential and the impact we can have on the world. Let us hold onto our dreams tightly, nurture them, and work tirelessly to make them come true. Together, let us create a world where dreams are not just possibilities, but realities.
Thank you.
Our Dreams - Speech Two
Ladies and gentlemen,
Today, I want to talk about our dreams. Dreams are the seeds of greatness that lie deep within us, waiting to be nurtured and brought to life. They are the visions that ignite our passion and inspire us to reach for the stars. Each one of us has a dream, a calling that sets our souls on fire. Today, I want to share our dreams as individuals and as a collective.
As individuals, our dreams may vary. Some of us dream of becoming doctors, engineers, artists, or teachers. Some dream of traveling the world, starting a business, or making a difference in the lives of others. Our dreams are unique to us, and they reflect our passions, talents, and aspirations. They are the driving force behind our actions and the reason why we wake up every morning with a sense of purpose.
But our dreams do not exist in isolation. They are interconnected, intertwined with the dreams of others. Our collective dream is to create a better world, a world where peace, justice, and equality prevail. We dream of a world without discrimination, where every person has access to the same opportunities and rights. Together, we dream of building bridges instead of walls, of fostering understanding and empathy among diverse cultures and communities.
However, dreams alone are not enough. They require action and commitment. We must take responsibility for our dreams and work towards them relentlessly. We must overcome setbacks, learn from failures, and stay focused on our goals. It won't be easy, but the journey towards our dreams is what shapes us and makes us stronger.
Together, we can achieve the extraordinary. By supporting each other, empowering one another, and collaborating, we can turn our dreams into reality. We can create a ripple effect that will inspire others to dream big and take action. Our dreams have the power to transform not only our own lives but also the lives of those around us.
In conclusion, our dreams are the compass that guides us towards our true purpose. They are the fuel that propels us forward, even in the face of adversity. Let us embrace our dreams, nurture them, and work tirelessly to make them come true. Together, let us create a world where dreams are not just possibilities, but realities.
Thank you.
我们的梦想英文演讲稿 篇三
我们的梦想英文演讲稿
five score years ago, a great american, in whose symbolic shadow we stand signed the emancipation proclamation. this momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. it came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity.
but one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the negro is still not free. one hundred years later, the life of the negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. one hundred years later, the negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. one hundred years later, the negro is still languishing in the corners of american society and finds himself an exile in his own land. so we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition.
in a sense we have come to our nation"s capital to cash a check. when the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the constitution and the declaration of independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every american was to fall heir. this note was a promise that all men would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
it is obvious today that america has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. instead of honoring this sacred obligation, america has given the negro people a bad check which has come back marked "insufficient funds." but we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. we refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation.
so we have come to cash this check -- a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.
we have also come to this hallowed spot to remind america of the fierce urgency of now. this is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all of god"s children. now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.
it would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment and to underestimate the determination of the negro. this sweltering summer of the negro"s legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality. nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning.
those who hope that the negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual. there will be neither rest nor tranquility in america until the negro is granted his citizenship rights. the whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.
but there is something that i must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. in the process of gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.
we must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. we must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.
the marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the negro community must not lead us to distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.
we cannot walk as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march ahead. we cannot turn back. there are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, "when will you be satisfied?" we can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities. we cannot be satisfied as long as the negro"s basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one. we can never be satisfied as long as a negro in mississippi cannot vote and a negro in new york believes he has nothing for which to vote. no, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream. 《1》《2》
i am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations. some of you have come fresh from narrow cells. some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality. you have been the veterans of creative suffering. continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive.
go back to mississippi, go back to alabama, go back to georgia, go back to louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed. let us not wallow in the valley of despair.
i say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, i still have a dream. it is a dream deeply rooted in the american dream.
i have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "we hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."
i have a dream that one day on the red hills of georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood.
i have a dream that one day even the state of mississippi, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
i have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
i have a dream today.
i have a dream that one day the state of alabama, whose governor"s lips are presently dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, will be transformed into a situation where little black boys and black girls will be able to jo
in hands with little white boys and white girls and walk together as sisters and brothers.i have a dream today.
i have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.
this is our hope. this is the faith with which i return to the south. with this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. with this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. with this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.
this will be the day when all of god"s children will be able to sing with a new meaning, "my country, "tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee i sing. land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrim"s pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring."
and if america is to be a great nation this must become true. so let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of new hampshire. let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of new york. let freedom ring from the heightening alleghenies of pennsylvania!
let freedom ring from the snowcapped rockies of colorado!
let freedom ring from the curvaceous peaks of california!
but not only that; let freedom ring from stone mountain of georgia!
let freedom ring from lookout mountain of tennessee!
let freedom ring from every hill and every molehill of mississippi. from every mountainside, let freedom ring.
when we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of god"s children, black men and white men, jews and gentiles, protestants and catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old negro spiritual, "free at last! free at last! thank god almighty, we are free at last!"
