Becuase believe or not,each one of us in this room is one day going to stop breathing,turn cold and die. I'd like you to step forward of you and peruse some of the faces from the past. They're not that different from you ,are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones. Just like you. Invincible just like you   fell. The   world is their oyster. They belive they're destined for great things, just like many of you,their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to makefrom their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because,you see gentelman,these boys are now fertilising daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on,lean in. Listen,you hear it ? Carpe...hear it?...Carpe,carpe diem,seize the day,boys,make your
lives extrordinary.

因为信不信由你，这个房间里的每个人，总有一天都要停止呼吸，僵冷，死亡．我要你们向前到这儿来，细细玩味过去的面孔，你们经过这儿无数次，但从未真正看过他们，和你的差异并不大，对吧？同样的发型，和你们一样精力旺盛，和你们一样不可一世，世界都在他们的掌握之中，他们认为注定要成就大事，和大多数的你们一样，他们的双眼充满了希望，和你们一样．他们是否虚度时光，到最后一无所成？因为各位所见到的......这些男孩现在都已化为尘土了，如果你们仔细倾听，便能听见他们在低声耳语，附耳过去，仔细听，听见了?CARPE...听见了吗?CARPE... CARPE DIEM 及时行乐,孩子们,让你的生命超越凡俗.

"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately ...I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life!To put to rout all that was not life...And not when I came to die, discover that I had not lived...
我步入丛林　因为我希望活得有意义 ...我希望活得深刻　汲取生命所有的精髓!把非生命的一切全都击溃 ...以免在我生命终结时，发现自己从来没有活过 ...

We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and writepoetry because we are members of the human face.And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty，romance, love, these are what we stay alive for．
我们读诗写诗，非为它的灵巧．我们读诗写诗，因为我们是人类的一员．而人类充满了热情．医药，法律，商业，工程，这些都是高贵的理想，并且是维生的必需条件．但是诗，美，浪漫，爱，这些才是我们生存。
