中学生精彩两分钟英语 篇1

I’m not afraid to take a stand

Everybody come take my hand

We’ll walk this road together, through the storm

Whatever weather, cold or warm

Just to let you know that, you’re not alone

Holla if you feel that you’ve been down the same roadYeah,

It’s been a ride…

I guess i had to go to that place to get to this one

Now some of you might still be in that place

If you’re trying to get out, just follow me

I’ll get you out…You can try and read my lyrics off of this

paper before I lay ‘em

But you won’t take the sting out these words before I say

‘em

Cause ain’t no way I’m let you stop me from causing

mayhem

When I say ‘em or do something I do it, I don’t give a

damn

What you think, I’m doing this for me, so fuсk the world

Feed it beans, it’s gassed up, if a thing’s stopping me

I’mma be what I set out to be, without a doubt undoubtedly

And all those who look down on me I’m tearing down your

balcony

No if ands or buts don’t try to ask him why or how can he

From Infinite down to the last Relapse album he’s still shit

and

Whether he’s on salary, paid hourly

Until he bows out or he shit’s his bowels out of him

Whichever comes first, for better or worse

He’s married to the game, like a fuсk you for christmas

His gift is a curse, forget the earth he’s got the urge

To pull his dick from the dirt and fuсk the whole universe

Ok quit playin’ with the scissors and shit, and cut the crap

I shouldn’t have to rhyme these words in the rhythm for

you to know it’s a rap

You said you was king, you lied through your teeth

For that fuсk your fillings, instead of getting crowned you’re

getting capped

And to the fans, I’ll never let you down again, I’m back

I promise to never go back on that promise, in fact

Let’s be honest, that last Relapse CD was “ehhhh”

Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground

Relax, I ain’t going back to that now

All I’m tryna say is get back, click-clack BLAOW

Cause I ain’t playin’ around

There’s a game called circle and I don’t know how

I’m way too up to back down

But I think I’m still tryna figure this crap out

Thought I had it mapped out but I guess I didn’t

This fuсking black cloud’s still follow’s me around

But it’s time to exercise these demons

ou know what I do have: two hands and two feet. I have a

brain in my head and air in my lungs, and what else do I really

need?Like what else do you really need to begin a today to lead

the life you know you are meant to lead? You know in your heart

what it is. And what more do you need to change before you step

into that? I stood up, and I looked at them, and then next feeling

which has been the biggest resource in my life since -

“gratitude”.You can either pick one thing in life, resentment or

gratitude, get on the side, I promise you. I looked at that moment

and realized I may not have my mother ever again, but I had

these resources. I had myself and I could go forward.

And then others will look to you, not with pity but with HOPE,

because your strength will become their HOPE, their strength.

You really can be that powerful.

You can ditch the victim story, you can leave the pain behind

and FOCUS on how you will react next. How you will react

positively.

Read. Read all you can read to get your mind in a positive

place.

Take steps to ensure you will be in a better position next time

– whatever pain you are suffering – how can you ensure it won’t

show again – Take little steps… and soon you will be at the top of

the stair case.

Don’t give up

You are worthy

You are more than worthy!

You deserve to experience how great life can be – and you

owe it to the world to be that positive change for others. To

inspire others – who will look to you and say – he did it, she did

it, and I can do it too.

Don't give up. You are worthy. You are MORE than worthy!

And I just can’t keep living this way

So starting today, I’m breaking out of this cage

I’m standing up, Imma face my demons

I’m manning up, Imma hold my ground

I’ve had enough, now I’m so fed up

Time to put my life back together right now

It was my decision to get clean, I did it for me

Admittedly i probably did it subliminally for you

So I could come back a brand new me, you helped see me

through

And don’t even realize what you did, believe me you

I been through the ringer, but they can do little to the middle

finger

I think I got a tear in my eye, I feel like the king of

My world, haters can make like bees with no stingers, and

drop dead

No more beef flingers, no more drama from now on, I

promise

To focus solely on handling my responsibilities as a father

So I solemnly swear to always treat this roof like my

daughters and raise it

You couldn’t lift a single shingle lonely

Cause the way I feel, I’m strong enough to go to the club

Put a corner pub and lift the whole liquor counter up

Cause I’m raising the bar, I shoot for the moon

But I’m too busy gazing at stars, I feel amazing and

(Hook)

I’m not afraid to take a stand

Everybody come take my hand

We’ll walk this road together, through the storm

Whatever weather, cold or warm

Just let you know that, you’re not alone

Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road

All of which he opposed -- from paying tens of millions of

dollars in arrearages to an institution, he despised, the United

Nations -- he was part of the so-called “black helicopter”

crowd; to passing the chemical weapons treaty, constantly

referring to, “we’ve never lost a war, and we’ve never won a

treaty,” which he vehemently opposed. But we were able to do

these things not because he changed his mind, but because in

this new relationship to maintain it is required to play fair, to be

straight. The cheap shots ended. And the chicanery to keep from

having to being able to vote ended -- even though he knew I had

the votes.

After that, we went on as he began to look at the other side

of things and do some great things together that he supported

like PEPFAR -— which by the way, George W. Bush deserves an

overwhelming amount of credit for, by the way, which provided

treatment and prevention HIV/AIDS in Africa and around the

world, literally saving millions of lives.

So one piece of advice is try to look beyond the caricature of

the person with whom you have to work. Resist the temptation

to ascribe motive, because you really don’t know -— and it gets

in the way of being able to reach a consensus on things that

matter to you and to many other people.

Resist the temptation of your generation to let “network”

become a verb that saps the personal away, that blinds you to

the person right in front of you, blinds you to their hopes, their

fears, and their burdens.

Build real relationships -— even with people with whom you

vehemently disagree. You’ll not only be happier. You will be

more successful.

It means you’re willing to look foolish, you’re willing to

run the risk of looking foolish in the service of what matters to

you. And if you remember that, because some of the things your

heart will tell you to do, will make you among your peers look

foolish, or not smart, or not sophisticated. But we’ll all be better

for people of your consequence to do it.

That’s what I want you to most remember. Not who spoke

at the day you all assembled on this mall. You’re a remarkable

class. I sure don't remember who the hell was my

commencement speaker. (Laughter.) I know this is not officially

commencement. But ask your parents when you leave here, who

spoke at your commencement? It’s a commencement speaker

aversion of a commencement speaker’s fate to be forgotten.

The question is only how quickly. But you’re the best in your

generation. And that is not hyperbole. And you're part of a

remarkable generation.

On the other hand, my other son, Hunter, who heads the

World Food Program USA, graduated from Yale Law School.

(Applause.) Now, he thought it’s a great idea. But then again,

law graduates always think all of their ideas are great ideas.

(Laughter.)

By the way, I’ve had a lot of law graduates from Yale work

for me. That's not too far from the truth. But anyway, look, the

truth of the matter is that I have a lot of staff that are Yale

graduates, several are with me today. They thought it was a great

idea that I speak here.

As a matter of fact, my former national security advisor, Jake

Sullivan, who is teaching here at Yale Law School, trained in

international relations at Yale College, edited the Yale Daily News,

and graduated from Harvard -- excuse me, Freudian slip -- Yale

Law School. (Laughter.) You’re lucky to have him. He’s a

brilliant and decent and honorable man. And I miss him. And we

miss him as my national security advisor.

But he’s not the only one. My deputy national security

advisor, Jeff Prescott, started and ran the China Law Center at Yale

Law School. My Middle East policy advisor and foreign policy

speechwriter, Dan Benaim, who is with me, took Daily Themes -— got a B. (Laughter.) Now you know why I go off script so much.

(Laughter and applause.)

Actually, being Vice President to Barack Obama has been

truly a great honor. We both enjoy getting out of the White

House to talk to folks in the real America -— the kind who know

what it means to struggle, to work hard, to shop at Kiko Milano.

(Laughter and applause.) Great choice. (Laughter.)

I just hope to hell the same people responsible for Kiko’s

aren’t in charge of naming the two new residential colleges.

(Laughter and applause.)

Now, look, folks, I spent a lot of time thinking about what I

should day to you today, but the more I thought about it, I

thought that any Class Day speech is likely to be redundant. You

already heard from Jessie J at Spring Fling. (Laughter.) So what in

the hell could I possibly say. (Laughter.)

Look, I’m deeply honored that Jeremy and Kiki selected me.

I don't know how the hell you trusted them to do that. (Laughter.)

I hope you agree with their choice. Actually I hope by the end of

this speech, they agree with their choice. (Laughter.)

I felt like a fool. He then went on to say, Joe, it’s always

appropriate to question another man’s judgment, but never

appropriate to question his motives because you simply don't

know his motives.

It happened early in my career fortunately. From that

moment on, I tried to look past the caricatures of my colleagues

and try to see the whole person. Never once have I questioned

another man’s or woman’s motive. And something started to

change. If you notice, every time there’s a crisis in the Congress

the last eight years, I get sent to the Hill to deal with it. It’s

because every one of those men and women up there -- whether

they like me or not -- know that I don't judge them for what I

think they're thinking.

Because when you question a man’s motive, when you say

they're acting out of greed, they're in the pocket of an interest

group, et cetera, it’s awful hard to reach consensus. It’s awful

hard having to reach across the table and shake hands. No matter

how bitterly you disagree, though, it is always possible if you

question judgment and not motive.

Senator Helms and I continued to have profound political

differences, but early on we both became the most powerful

members of the Senate running the Foreign Relations Committee,

as Chairmen and Ranking Members. But something happened,

the mutual defensiveness began to dissipate. And as a result, we

began to be able to work together in the interests of the country.

And as Chairman and Ranking Member, we passed some of the

most significant legislation passed in the last 40 years.

I began to commute thinking I was only going to stay a little

while -- four hours a day, every day -- from Washington to

Wilmington, which I’ve done for over 37 years. I did it because

I wanted to be able to kiss them goodnight and kiss them in the

morning the next day. No, “Ozzie and Harriet” breakfast or

great familial thing, just climb in bed with them. Because I came

to realize that a child can hold an important thought, something

they want to say to their mom and dad, maybe for 12 or 24 hours,

and then it’s gone. And when it’s gone, it’s gone. And it all

adds up.

But looking back on it, the truth be told, the real reason I

went home every night was that I needed my children more than

they needed me. Some at the time wrote and suggested that

Biden can't be a serious national figure. If he was, he’d stay in

Washington more, attend to more important events. It’s

obvious he’s not serious. He goes home after the last vote.

中学生精彩两分钟英语演讲稿范文 篇11

you -- you’re on the cusp of some of the most astonishing

breakthroughs in the history of mankind -— scientific,

technological, socially —- that’s going to change the way you

live and the whole world works. But it will be up to you in this

changing world to translate those unprecedented capabilities

into a greater measure of happiness and meaning -— not just for

yourself, but for the world around you.

And I feel more confident for my children and grandchildren

knowing that the men and women who graduate here today,

here and across the country, will be in their midst. That’s the

honest truth. That's the God’s truth. That's my word as a Biden.

Congratulations, Class of 20xx. And may God bless you and

may God protect our troops. Thank you.

In fairness to George, ‘pains is taken’ is the way they spoke

back then. Today, Washington would probably say ‘take pains.’

Or maybe T-Pain.

But Washington, really, Washington’s point, and

Washington U.’s motto, are principles I hope that all of you will

take to heart: truth will prevail where pains are taken to bring it

to light. And with truth comes strength.

The pains that every generation has taken to bring light are

why secession didn’t succeed…secession didn’t succeed in

1794 or 1861. The pains taken by abolitionists, and suffragettes,

and civil rights marchers, and marriage equality advocates

brought America’s core truth to light: that all people are created

equal.

And today…today, the necessity of taking pains to bring truth

to light is greater than ever because the tools for spreading lies

are more powerful than ever.

Since the dawn of democracy, there have always been those,

to paraphrase Socrates, who try to make the weaker argument

appear the stronger and who care more about winning debates

than being truthful.

Of course, some people say defending the indefensible is just

politics as usual, but I don’t accept that – and I hope you won’t,

either.

When extreme partisanship replaces reason, logic, facts and

data, the country suffers – and special interests win. I’ve seen it

time and time again, on issue after issue: gun violence, education,

public health, and even one that threatens life as we know it:

climate change.

Yesterday, I stood with WashU’s next chancellor, Andrew

Martin, and the president of Ohio State University to announce

that Bloomberg Philanthropies will help sponsor the first-ever

climate summit of Midwestern universities next year right here

on this campus.

We were joined by your mayor here, Lyda Krewson, because

St. Louis, and WashU, has never…has always been a real leader on

climate change.

Last year, this city was one of the winners of a climate

competition my foundation ran. And we are now providing about

$2.5 million of resources to help St. Louis increase energy

efficiency and expand solar power – a goal that WashU is helping

the city to achieve. Thank you very much.

All of you have been part of this institution’s long tradition

of advocacy and activism. Don’t leave it behind. Carry it with

you, and take on this challenge to bring truth to light.

To help you get started, let me offer some quick advice for

dealing with modern-day sophists who try to obscure – and deny

– truth.

When those …when those in the political arena engage in

name-calling and other schoolyard chants, and are trying to

distract your attention away from the real issues and from their

inability to address them or their unwillingness to put forward

practical solutions – don’t be distracted.

When they tolerate attacks on minority groups, especially

those who profess a faith that some find threatening, they are

empowering those who traffic in hatred – don’t tolerate it.

When they denounce journalists as ‘enemies of the state,’

and declare any critical coverage to be ‘fake news,’ and dress

up lies as ‘alternative facts,’ they are trying to fool you into

trusting only the news that comes from their mouths – don’t be

fooled.

When they exaggerate the risks we face from immigrants

without talking about all the benefits they have brought to our

country, they are preying on people’s fears – don’t let them

get away with it.

When they tell…try to tell you who you can love, or even who

you can be, they are either pandering for votes or playing God –

don’t put up with it.

When they promise you a free lunch, or free college, or free

medical care, or free income, remember that a bill always comes

due – don’t let them pass the buck.

When they prevent speakers from being heard, by shouting

them down or creating spaces where differing opinions are not

permitted, they are trying to win arguments by bullying and

censorship instead of facts and reason. Don’t let them suppress

free speech even…even when you find that speech to be

deplorable. Protecting their right to speak is the only way to

protect your right to speak.

When people romanticize the past, just remember

something my mother, who lived to 102, told me: the good old

days were never that good.

中学生精彩两分钟英语演讲稿范文 篇15

Universities have a critical role to play in helping our country

tackle this challenge, and I want to thank everyone at WashU who

has been part of that work.

There really is no time to waste. The problems driven by

climate change are getting worse – and that’s something

you’ve seen right here during your lifetime.

The recent Mississippi River floods have affected life in St.

Louis and they have devastated farmers across the Midwest.

Those types of natural disasters will continue to get more severe

with climate change, according to the best scientific data.

The trouble is too many politicians aren’t interested in hard

science. They’re only interested in political science and winning

their next election. So they ignore the data, they try to cut

funding for climate research – because they know it will

undermine their political argument. Sometimes they even try to

block public employees from uttering the words – climate change.

You can’t make this stuff up. You just have to wonder, what

are they trying to hide? And the only conclusion I have drawn is

that they’re either hiding their own ignorance or their own bad

faith.

Either way, when government tries to gag scientists and

censor our conclusions, watch out and speak up.

中学生精彩两分钟英语演讲稿范文 篇16

I want you to know that, no matter where you are in life… No

matter how low you have sunk… No matter how bleak your

situation… This is NOT THE END.

This is not the end of your story

This is not the final chapter of your life.

I know it may be hard right now

But if you just hang in there

Stick it out

Stay with me for a little while…

You will find, that this tough moment will pass, and, if you

are committed to USING this pain, using it to build your character,

finding a greater MEANING for the pain, you will find that, in time,

you can turn your life around, and help others going through the

same struggles.

The good news is the way to clean up the pollution can be

found in [the] three words written on the cover of your diploma.

It’s the motto of this great university: ‘Per Veritatem Vis’

(strength through truth). And it’s a motto that fits perfectly with

a university named for George Washington.

In 1794, during President Washington’s second term, there

was a faction ginning up support for secession. Washington

recognized the threat it was…threat it posed – and he was

confident that it would not succeed. He wrote in a letter, and I

quote, ‘It is not difficult by concealment of some facts, and

exaggeration of others to bias a well-meaning mind, at least for

a while.’

But, he continued, ‘Truth will ultimately prevail where pains

is taken to bring it to light.’

Now, I know the phrase ‘pains is taken’ probably just

horrified every English major here. As kids, we were taught that

Washington never told a lie, but they never told us he had trouble

with subject-verb agreements.

Look, at a Gridiron Dinner not long ago, the President said, I

-- the President -- “I am learning to speak without a

teleprompter, Joe is learning to speak with one.” (Laughter.) But

if you looked at my speechwriters, you know the

granddaughter of one of my dearest friends in life -— a former

Holocaust survivor, a former foreign policy advisor, a former

Chairman of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs,

Congressman Tom Lantos -— is graduating today. Mercina,

congratulations, kiddo. (Applause.) Where are you? You are the

sixth -- she’s the sixth sibling in her immediate family to

graduate from Yale. Six out of 11, that's not a bad batting average.

(Laughter.) I believe it’s a modern day record for the number of

kids who went to Yale from a single family.

And, Mercina, I know that your mom, Little Annette is here. I

don't know where you are, Annette. But Annette was part of the

first class of freshman women admitted to Yale University.

(Applause.)

And her grandmother, Annette, is also a Holocaust survivor,

an amazing woman; and both I’m sure wherever they are,

beaming today. And I know one more thing, Mercina, your father

and grandfather are looking down, cheering you on.

中学生精彩两分钟英语演讲稿范文 篇19

In all seriousness, the board back then made an inspiring

decision to choose Washington. And anyone who thinks this

school is in D.C. or near Seattle clearly hasn’t been paying

attention.

It seems fitting that an institution named for Washington has

played such an important role in presidential elections in recent

decades. WashU has hosted a number of nationally televised

debates, including the last one you saw in 20xx.

Hosting a presidential debate is an experience that few

schools or students get. But I can’t stand here and tell you it

provided a great civics lesson. I wish I could.

Instead of focusing on the critical issues facing the country,

that debate was more about locker room talk and ‘lock her up.’

Lincoln-Douglas, I think it’s fair to say, it was not.

And that brings me to the topic du jour. It would be easy to

blame the candidates or the moderators for the poor quality of

that debate. But the problem runs much deeper.

中学生精彩两分钟英语演讲稿范文 篇20

For your generation, there’s an incredible amount of

pressure on all of you to succeed, particularly now that you have

accomplished so much. You’re whole generation faces this

pressure. I see it in my grandchildren who are honors students at

other Ivy universities right now. You race to do what others think

is right in high school. You raced through the bloodsport of

college admissions. You raced through Yale for the next big thing.

And all along, some of you compare yourself to the success of

your peers on Facebook, Instagram, Linked-In, Twitter.

Today, some of you may have found that you slipped into the

self-referential bubble that validates certain choices. And the

bubble expands once you leave this campus, the pressures and

anxiousness, as well -- take this job, make that much money, live

in this place, hang out with people like you, take no real risks and

have no real impact, while getting paid for the false sense of both.

But resist that temptation to rationalize what others view is

the right choice for you -— instead of what you feel in your gut

is the right choice —- that’s your North Star. Trust it. Follow it.

You're an incredible group of young women and men. And that's

not hyperbole. You're an incredible group.

中学生精彩两分钟英语演讲稿范文 篇21

I’ve been lucky. And my wish for all of you is that not only

tomorrow, but 20 and 40 and 50 years from now, you’ve found

that sweet spot, that thing that allows you to get up in the

morning, put both feet on the floor, go out and pursue what you

love, and think it still matters.

Some of you will go to Silicon Valley and make great

contributions to empower individuals and societies and maybe

even design a life-changing app, like how to unsubscribe to

Obama for America email list -- (laughter) -- the biggest “pan-

list” of all times.

Some of you will go to Wall Street and big Wall Street law

firms, government and activism, Peace Corps, Teach for America.

You’ll become doctors, researchers, journalists, artists, actors,

musicians. Two of you -— one of whom was one of my former

interns in the White House, Sam Cohen, and Andrew Heymann

—- will be commissioned in the United States Navy.

Congratulations, gentlemen. We're proud of you. (Applause.)

But all of you have one thing in common you will all seek to

find that sweet spot that satisfies your ambition and success and

happiness.

I’ve met an awful lot of people in my career. And I’ve

noticed one thing, those who are the most successful and the

happiest -- whether they’re working on Wall Street or Main

Street, as a doctor or nurse, or as a lawyer, or a social worker,

I’ve made certain basic observation about the ones who from

my observation wherever they were in the world were able to find

that sweet spot between success and happiness. Those who

balance life and career, who find purpose and fulfillment, and

where ambition leads them.

中学生精彩两分钟英语演讲稿范文 篇22

finally, when leaders wrap themselves in the flag, or the

national anthem, and try to make you think that critics of your

government don’t love and respect our country, real patriotism

isn’t about honoring symbols. Real patriotism is about bringing

truth to light, and when action is required, standing up and

taking action.

In other words, real patriotism is about taking pains. So if you

remember nothing else from today, remember that phrase. Or, to

make it even simpler, just remember: T-Pain.

Graduates, as you leave this great university, I hope you will

take the pains that are necessary to preserve and extend our

democracy. Take pains to understand the other side. Take pains

to expose lies. Take pains to reject scapegoating and xenophobia.

Take pains not to fall for easy answers. And take pains to hold our

leaders accountable for their words and their deeds.

If you do that, I have no doubt that truth – and America – will

prevail. And my generation will be able to say, as we pass the

leadership torch to yours, the same words that Washington

spoke with his last breath: ‘Tis well.

So tonight, have one last drink, maybe at T’s, dance to your

own beat or to the beat of Ninja Turtle Backpack Guy, and

tomorrow, get to work. The world needs you more than ever.

Congratulations, and good luck.

Let me say that again.

The reason anyone gets depressed always comes down to

the CONSISTENT thoughts we think, and the CONSISTENT beliefs

we hold.

If I believe I am fat, horrible, ugly and unworthy of love, I will

most likely become depressed or have depression thoughts

If my thought process is “I must be in a relationship and

earn X amount to be happy” I might get depression if I don’t

achieve those goals.

The point here is that anyone that is depressed, is so,

because there is an external factor that didn’t materialize in

their life – i.e…. (They have lost something outside of their control,

or don’t have something that is out of their control) the most

common reasons for depression are : a lost a job, relationship

break downs or non existence, body image, comparison to others.

The only way out of this is to work on yourself, every day.

In school we are taught how to get a job, but no one teaches

us how to live in a state of happiness. No one teaches us how

important our conscious and unconscious thoughts and

associations are.

Is our happiness not worth more than a job?

Yes it is.

And before you say, happiness won’t pay my bills –

happiness WILL pay your bills, when you realize you will be 10

times more energized, focused and take positive action in your

life, when you FIRST choose to develop yourself as a priority, and

THEN get to all the “stuff” of the world.

中学生精彩两分钟英语演讲稿范文 篇24

Graduates, you’re probably asking yourself some big,

important questions right now on this important day, like how

am I going to make a living? Will I ever have a mattress as nice

as the one I had in the Forty? Will I ever again experience the

magic of free Uber rides?

And the biggest question of all, after Chancellor Wrighton

retires, will he still wear double-breasted suits? I’m going to say

yes to that one.

Today, you’ll have to say farewell to many of the things that

served as your support system and that got you through these

stressful times, like Ted Drewes, toasted ravs, John’s Donuts,

gooey butter cake. Thank goodness, WashU has also one of the

world’s best medical centers.

Now, before I go any further, let me take a moment to

congratulate another group who is here today and does deserve

a lot of credit, and I’m talking about your parents and your

family. What about a nice round of applause for them?

They’re out there beaming, not even thinking about the

cost of tuition, and I’m sure they are just thrilled that some of

you will be moving back into their basements.

Wherever you’re headed in the days and months ahead, I

want to leave you with some food for thought, so let me turn to

the real message of my speech.

中学生精彩两分钟英语演讲稿范文 篇25

In their flattering invitation letter, they asked me to bring

along a sense of humor, speak about my commitment to public

service and family, talk about resiliency, compassion, and

leadership in a changing world. Petty tall order. (Laughter.) I

probably already flunked the first part of the test.

But with the rest let me say upfront, and I mean this sincerely,

there’s nothing particularly unique about me. With regard to

resilience and compassion, there are countless thousands of

people, maybe some in the audience, who’ve suffered through

personal losses similar to mine or much worse with much less

support to help them get through it and much less reason to

want to get through it.

It’s not that all that difficult, folks, to be compassionate

when you’ve been the beneficiary of compassion in your lowest

moments not only from your family, but from your friends and

total strangers. Because when you know how much it meant to

you, you know how much it mattered. It’s not hard to be

compassionate.

The second thing I’ve noticed is that although you know no

one is better than you, every other persons is equal to you and

deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.

I’ve worked with eight Presidents, hundreds of Senators.

I’ve met every major world leader literally in the last 40 years.

And I’ve had scores of talented people work for me. And here’s

what I’ve observed: Regardless of their academic or social

backgrounds, those who had the most success and who were

most people who are successful and happy remembered a third

thing: Reality has a way of intruding.

my state overwhelmingly. George McGovern was at the top of

the ticket. I got elected as the second-youngest man in the

history of the United States to be elected, the stuff that provides

my sons, I found my redemption.
