美国总统尼克松就职演讲稿
MONDAY, JANUARY 20, 1969
Senator Dirksen, Mr. Chief Justice, Mr. Vice
President, President Johnson, Vice President Humphrey, my
fellow Americans--and my fellow citizens of the world
community:
I ask you to share with me today the majesty of this
moment. In the orderly transfer of power, we celebrate
the unity that keeps us free.
Each moment in history is a fleeting time, precious
and unique. But some stand out as moments of beginning,
in which courses are set that shape decades or centuries.
This can be such a moment.
Forces now are converging that make possible, for the
first time, the hope that many of man's deepest
aspirations can at last be realized. The spiraling pace
of change allows us to contemplate, within our own
lifetime, advances that once would have taken centuries.
In throwing wide the horizons of space, we have
discovered new horizons on earth.

For the first time, because the people of the world
want peace, and the leaders of the world are afraid of
war, the times are on the side of peace.
Eight years from now America will celebrate its 200th
anniversary as a nation. Within the lifetime of most
people now living, mankind will celebrate that great new
year which comes only once in a thousand years--the
beginning of the third millennium.
What kind of nation we will be, what kind of world we
will live in, whether we shape the future in the image of
our hopes, is ours to determine by our actions and our
choices.
The greatest honor history can bestow is the title of
peacemaker. This honor now beckons America--the chance to
help lead the world at last out of the valley of turmoil,
and onto that high ground of peace that man has dreamed
of since the dawn of civilization.
If we succeed, generations to come will say of us now
living that we mastered our moment, that we helped make
the world safe for mankind.
This is our summons to greatness.
I believe the American people are ready to answer
this call.

The second third of this century has been a time of
proud achievement. We have made enormous strides in
science and industry and agriculture. We have shared our
wealth more broadly than ever. We have learned at last to
manage a modern economy to assure its continued growth.
We have given freedom new reach, and we have begun to
make its promise real for black as well as for white.
We see the hope of tomorrow in the youth of today. I
know America's youth. I believe in them. We can be proud
that they are better educated, more committed, more
passionately driven by conscience than any generation in
our history.
No people has ever been so close to the achievement
of a just and abundant society, or so possessed of the
will to achieve it. Because our strengths are so great,
we can afford to appraise our weaknesses with candor and
to approach them with hope.
Standing in this same place a third of a century ago,
Franklin Delano Roosevelt addressed a Nation ravaged by
depression and gripped in fear. He could say in surveying
the Nation's troubles: "They concern, thank God, only
material things."
Our crisis today is the reverse.
