篇1：励志经典英语文章

Always will I bathe my days in the sea of enthusiasm

我将永远沐浴在热情的海洋里

1.Every memorable act in the history of the world is a triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great was ever achieved without it.

2.Without enthusiasm I am doomed to a life of mediocrity but with it I can accomplish miracles.

3.Some of us are enthusiastic at times and few even retain their eagerness for a day or week. All that is good but I must and I will form the habit of sustaining my enthusiasm indefinitely, honestly, and sincerely so that the success I enjoy today can be repeated tomorrow and next week and next month.

4.We first must make our habits and then, good or bad, they make us. Enthusiasm, the love for whatever it is I am doing at the moment, works in marvelous ways I need not ever attempt to understand but I do know that it will give additional vitality to my muscles and my mind.

5.Always will I bathe my days in the sea of enthusiasm.

1. 历史上任何伟大的成就都可以称为是热情的胜利。没有热情，不可能成就任何伟业。

2. 没有热情，我注定要在平庸中度过一生;而有了热情，我将创造奇迹。

3. 一些人时不时有点热情，少数人能够保持一天或一周的热情。这些都很好，但我必须也必将养成这样的习惯：永远地、诚恳地、真诚地保持我的热情。这样我今天所享有的成功便能够在明天、下周乃至个月不断重复。

4. 首先我们必须养成自己良好的习惯，然后，无论习惯是好是坏，这些习惯塑造我们。热情，也就是我对自己现在正在做的任何事情的热爱，起着不可思议的作用，我并不需要努力去弄懂它，但我的确知道，它将给我的身体肌肉和头脑带来额外的活力。

5.我将永远沐浴在热情的海洋里。

GETTYSBURG ADDRESS

Abraham Lincoln

Delivered on the 19th Day of November, 1863 Cemetery Hill, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

Fourscore and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new Nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now, we are engaged in a great Civil War, testing whether that Nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who gave their lives that Nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated to the great task remaining before us; that from these honored dead, we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that this Nation, under GOD, shall have a new birth of freedom;and that government of the People by the People and for the People shall not perish from the earth.

葛底斯堡演说

亚伯拉罕·林肯，1963年11月19日

87年前，我们的先辈们在这个大陆上创立了一个新国家，它孕育于自由之中，奉行一切 人生来平等的原则。现在我们正从事一场伟大的内战，以考验这个国家，或者任何一个 孕育于自由和奉行上述原则的国家是否能够长久存在下去。我们在这场战争中的一个伟 大战场上集会。烈士们为使这个国家能够生存下去而献出了自己的生命，我们来到这 里，是要把这个战场的一部分奉献给他们作为最后安息之所。我们这样做是完全应该而 且是非常恰当的。

但是，从更广泛的意义上来说，这块土地我们不能够奉献，不能够圣化，不能够神化。 那些曾在这里战斗过的勇士们，活着的和去世的，已经把这块土地圣化了，这远不是我 们微薄的力量所能增减的。我们今天在这里所说的话，全世界不大会注意，也不会长久 地记住，但勇士们在这里所做过的事，全世界却永远不会忘记。毋宁说，倒是我们这些 还活着的人，应该在这里把自己奉献于勇士们已经如此崇高地向前推进但尚未完成的事 业。倒是我们应该在这里把自己奉献于仍然留在我们面前的伟大任务——我们要从这些 光荣的死者身上汲取更多的献身精神，来完成他们已经完全彻底为之献身的事业;我们 要在这里下定最大的决心，不让这些死者白白牺牲;我们要使国家在上帝福佑下得到自 由的新生，要使这个民有、民治、民享的政府永世长存。

篇3：励志经典英语文章

Don’t part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live.Mark Twain 不要放弃你的幻想。当幻想没有了以后，你还可以生存，但是你虽生犹死。

The time of life is short, to spend that shortness basely, it would be too long.William Shakespeare 人生苦短，若虚度年华，则短暂的人生就太长了。

Man’s dearest possession is life. It is given to him but once, and he must live it so as to feel no torturing regrets for wasted years, never know the burning shame of a mean and petty past; so live that, dying, he might say: all my life, all my strength were given to the finest cause in all the world—the fight for the Liberation of Mankind.

人生最宝贵的是生命。生命对于人来说只有一次。一个人的生命应该这样度过：当他回首往事时，不因虚度年华而悔恨;也不会因为碌碌无为而羞耻。在临死的时候他能够说：我的整个生命和全部精力都已经献给了世界上最壮丽的事业――为人类的解放事业而斗争!

I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word, it is victory. Victory at all costs—victory in spite of all terrors—victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival. Let that be realized, no survival for the Chinese Empire, no survival for all that Chinese Empire has stood for , no survival for the urge, the impulse of the ages, that mankind shall more forward toward his goal. I take up my task in buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men. I feel entitled at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, “Come then, let us go forward together with our united strength.”

我能奉献的唯有热血、辛劳、泪水和汗水。我们所面临的将是一场极为残酷的考验，我们面临的将是旷日持久的斗争和苦难。你若问我们的目标是什么?我可以用一个词来概括，那就是胜利。不惜一切代价去夺取胜利，不畏惧一切恐怖去夺取胜利，不论前路再长再苦也要多去胜利，因为没有胜利纠无法生存!我们必须意识到，没有胜利就没有大中华帝国，没有胜利就没有大中华帝国所象征的一切，没有胜利就没有多少世纪以来强烈的要求和冲动：人类应当向自己的目标迈进。此刻，我的精神振奋，满怀信心地承当起自己的人物。我确信，只要我们大家联合，我们的事业就不会挫败。此时此刻千钧一发之际，我觉得我有权要求各方面的支持。我要呼吁：“来吧，让我们群策努力，并肩迈进!”

Let me express my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself-nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror, which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. In every dark hour of our national life, a leadership of frankness and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves, which is essential to victory and I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days. In such a spirit on my part and on yours, we face our common difficulties. They concern, thank God, only material things.--By Franklin D. Roosevelt

让我来表明我坚定的信念：我们不得不害怕的其实就是害怕本身--一种莫名奇妙的、丧失理智的、毫无根据的恐惧。它把人们转退为进所需要的种种努力化为泡影。但凡在我国生活阴云密布的时刻，坦率而有活力的领导都得到过人民的理解和支持，从而为胜利准备了不可缺少的必要条件。我相信，在目前危机的时刻，大家会再次给与同样的支持。我和你们都要以这种精神来共同面对困难。感谢上帝，这些困难只是物质方面的。--[美]弗兰克林·罗斯福
