经典名人英语演讲(中英对照):Presidential Nomination Acceptance Speech 2

2012-05-02来源:和谐英语

I have asked the Merciful Father -- the Father of us all -- to let this cup pass from me, but from such dread[ed]responsibility one does not shrink in fear, in self-interest, or in false humility. So, "If this cup may not pass from me," I -- "except I drink it, Thy will be done."
That my heart has been troubled, that I have not sought this nomination, that I could not seek it in good conscience, that I would not seek it in honest self-appraisal, is not to say that I value it the less. Rather, it is that I revere the office of the Presidency of the United States. And now, my friends, that you have made your decision, I will fight to win that office with all -- with all my heart and my soul. And, with your help, I have no doubt that we will win.
