And never forget that the most important example a young girl will ever follow is that of a parent. Malia and Sasha are going to be outstanding women because Michelle and Marian Robinson are outstanding women. So understand your power, and use it wisely.
千万不要忘记一个女孩仿效的最重要榜样就是她的父母。玛莉娅和莎夏将会成为杰出的女性,因为米歇尔和玛丽安·鲁宾逊都是杰出的女性。所以,要认识到你们的力量,并且明智地加以运用。
My last piece of advice -- this is simple, but perhaps most important: Persevere. Persevere. Nothing worthwhile is easy. No one of achievement has avoided failure -- sometimes catastrophic failures. But they keep at it. They learn from mistakes. They don’t quit.
我的最后一点建议--这很简单,但可能是最重要的一点:坚持不懈。坚持不懈。有价值的事物得之不易。没有一个有成就的人能够避免失败--有时甚至是一败涂地。可是他们坚持不懈,从错误中学习。他们绝不放弃。
You know, when I first arrived on this campus, it was with little money, fewer options. But it was here that I tried to find my place in this world. I knew I wanted to make a difference, but it was vague how in fact I’d go about it. (Laughter.) But I wanted to do my part to do my part to shape a better world.
你们知道,我刚到这个校园时,没多少钱,更没多少选择。但正是在这里,我试图寻找我在这个世界上的立足之地。我知道我想有所作为,但却不清楚如何去做。(笑声)可我想尽自己的力量去建设一个更美好的世界。
