公眾人物畢業(yè)演講第34期:比爾蓋茨夫婦于斯坦福大學(xué)(15)
樂觀在我看來
is not a passive expectation that things are goingto get better.
并不是一種認(rèn)為未來會(huì)變好的被動(dòng)期望
For me, it's a conviction and a belief that we canmake things better.
而是一種信念 相信我們能用自己的雙手讓未來變得更好
So no matter how much suffering we see, no matter how bad it is,
無論我們遭受了多少苦難 無論境況有多糟糕
we can help people if we don't lose hope and if we don't look away.
只要不喪失希望 不假裝沒看見 我們就能幫助這些人
Melinda and I have described some devastating scenes,
我和梅琳達(dá)都講述了災(zāi)難性的情景
but we want to make the strongest case we can for the power of optimism.
但我們愿意以最好的期許 相信樂觀的力量
Even in dire situations,
越是在極端惡劣的情形下
optimism fuels innovation
樂觀越能激發(fā)出創(chuàng)新
and leads to new approaches that eliminate suffering.
為消除苦難找出新的方法
But if you never really see the people who are suffering,
但如果你沒親眼見過遭受苦難的人們
your optimism can't help them.
你的樂觀將幫不到他們
You will never change their world.
你也永遠(yuǎn)無法改變他們的世界
