“If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.”
不是因为我们有敏锐的眼光，也不是站得更高，
not because we have keener vision, nor greater height,
而是因为我们被先人伟岸身躯举起
but because we are lifted up and
出生在他们的博识之中。
borne upon on their gigantic stature and knowledge.
尽管我害怕过,但我从未没有停止过奋斗。
But despite my fear，I have never stopped striving。
比起以往，今年对我的意义非凡
to me this year than they ever could have before.
品头论足者无足轻重，
It is not the critic who counts,
当一个强者跌倒或者一个实干家做的不够完美时，
not the man who points out how the strongman stumbles,
在一旁指手画脚的人无足轻重。
or wher the doer of deeds could have donethem better。
荣誉属于竞技场上的斗士们，
The credit belongs to the man who isactually in the arena,
他们的脸上是泥沙血汗，
whose face is marred by dust and sweat andblood，
他不懈的努力；
who strives valiantly；
他曾犯过错并一再失败。
who errs and comes short again and again.
因为付出即意味着伴随犯错和失败。
because there is not effort without errorand shortcomings.
他满怀激情地努力做事，执着不懈；
but who does actually strive to do thedeed;
他懂得出击时的兴奋，他懂得全力以赴，
who knows the greats enthusiasm, the greatdevotion,
他将生命奉献于崇高事业，
who spends himself in a worthy cause,
他最终会享受胜利的喜悦
who at the best knows in the end thetriumph of high achievement
至少是，
and who at the worst,
如果失败了，
if he fails,
他们也败得荣耀。
at least he fails while daring greatly.
因而，这样的人永远不应与那些从未经历过失败和成功的
So that his place shall never be with thosecold and timid souls
冷漠且胆怯的灵魂相提并论。
Who know neither victory nor defeat.
忘记那些远在天边的梦想
Forget about having long-term dreams.
让我们以热情的献身
Let's be passionately
去追寻近在眼前的目标
dedicated to the pursuit of short-term goals.
积少成多。
Micro-ambitious.
我不是一个人在奋斗，
This job would not have been possiblealone,
所以我必须感谢这个团队。
and consequently I must thank a massiveteam.
你们是可靠的，鼓舞人心的，
You have been solid and inspirational,
能够以你之长补我所短，
Strong wher I was weak,
你们是令人惊叹的力量源泉。
And an amazing source of support.
我总是觉得你们会一直支持我，
I always felt you had my back,
那让每一天都极为美好。
And that made every day so much better.
