thank you,mr. chairman.
mr. chairman,i join my colleague mr. rangel in thanking you for giving the junior members of this committee the glorious opportunity of sharing the pain of this inquiry. mr. chairman,you are a strong man,and it has not been easy but we have tried as best we can to give you as much assistance as possible.
earlier today,we heard the beginning of the preamble to the constitution of the united states: "we,the people." it's a very eloquent beginning. but when that document was completed on the seventeenth of september in 1787,i was not included in that "we,the people." i felt somehow for many years that george washington and alexander hamilton just left me out by mistake. but through the process of amendment,interpretation,and court decision,i have finally been included in "we,the people."
today i am an inquisitor. an hyperbole would not be fictional and would not overstate the solemnness that i feel right now. my faith in the constitution is whole; it is complete; it is total. and i am not going to sit here and be an idle spectator to the diminution,the subversion,the destruction,of the constitution.
"who can so properly be the inquisitors for the nation as the representatives of the nation themselves?" "the subjects of its jurisdiction are those offenses which proceed from the misconduct of public men." and that's what we're talking about. in other words,[the jurisdiction comes] from the abuse or violation of some public trust.
it is wrong,i suggest,it is a misreading of the constitution for any member here to assert that for a member to vote for an article of impeachment means that that member must be convinced that the president should be removed from office. the constitution doesn't say that. the powers relating to impeachment are an essential check in the hands of the body of the legislature against and upon the encroachments of the executive. the division between the two branches of the legislature,the house and the senate,assigning to the one the right to accuse and to the other the right to judge,the framers of this constitution were very astute. they did not make the accusers and the judgers -- and the judges the same person.
we know the nature of impeachment. we've been talking about it awhile now. it is chiefly designed for the president and his high ministers to somehow be called into account. it is designed to "bridle" the executive if he engages in excesses. "it is designed as a method of national inquest into the conduct of public men." the framers confided in the congress the power if need be,to remove the president in order to strike a delicate balance between a president swollen with power and grown tyrannical,and preservation of the independence of the executive.
the nature of impeachment: a narrowly channeled exception to the separation-of-powers maxim. the federal convention of 1787 said that. it limited impeachment to high crimes and misdemeanors and discounted and opposed the term "maladministration." "it is to be used only for great misdemeanors," so it was said in the north carolina ratification convention. and in the virginia ratification convention: "we do not trust our liberty to a particular branch. we need one branch to check the other."
"no one need be afraid" -- the north carolina ratification convention -- "no one need be afraid that officers who commit oppression will pass with immunity." "prosecutions of impeachments will seldom fail to agitate the passions of the whole community," said hamilton in the federalist papers,number 65. "we divide into parties more or less friendly or inimical to the accused." i do not mean political parties in that sense.
the drawing of political lines goes to the motivation behind impeachment; but impeachment must proceed within the confines of the constitutional term "high crime[s] and misdemeanors." of the impeachment process,it was woodrow wilson who said that "nothing short of the grossest offenses against the plain law of the land will suffice to give them speed and effectiveness. indignation so great as to overgrow party interest may secure a conviction; but nothing else can."
common sense would be revolted if we engaged upon this process for petty reasons. congress has a lot to do: appropriations,tax reform,health insurance,campaign finance reform,housing,environmental protection,energy sufficiency,mass transportation. pettiness cannot be allowed to stand in the face of such overwhelming problems. so today we are not being petty. we are trying to be big,because the task we have before us is a big one.
this morning,in a discussion of the evidence,we were told that the evidence which purports to support the allegations of misuse of the cia by the president is thin. we're told that that evidence is insufficient. what that recital of the evidence this morning did not include is what the president did know on june the 23rd,1972.
the president did know that it was republican money,that it was money from the committee for the re-election of the president,which was found in the possession of one of the burglars arrested on june the 17th. what the president did know on the 23rd of june was the prior activities of e. howard hunt,which included his participation in the break-in of daniel ellsberg's psychiatrist,which included howard hunt's participation in the dita beard itt affair,which included howard hunt's fabrication of cables designed to discredit the kennedy administration.
we were further cautioned today that perhaps these proceedings ought to be delayed because certainly there would be new evidence forthcoming from the president of the united states. there has not even been an obfuscated indication that this committee would receive any additional materials from the president. the committee subpoena is outstanding,and if the president wants to supply that material,the committee sits here. the fact is that on yesterday,the american people waited with great anxiety for eight hours,not knowing whether their president would obey an order of the supreme court of the united states.
at this point,i would like to juxtapose a few of the impeachment criteria with some of the actions the president has engaged in. impeachment criteria: james madison,from the virginia ratification convention. "if the president be connected in any suspicious manner with any person and there be grounds to believe that he will shelter him,he may be impeached."
we have heard time and time again that the evidence reflects the payment to defendants money. the president had knowledge that these funds were being paid and these were funds collected for the 1972 presidential campaign. we know that the president met with mr. henry petersen 27 times to discuss matters related to watergate,and immediately thereafter met with the very persons who were implicated in the information mr. petersen was receiving. the words are: "if the president is connected in any suspicious manner with any person and there be grounds to believe that he will shelter that person,he may be impeached."
justice story: "impeachment" is attended -- "is intended for occasional and extraordinary cases where a superior power acting for the whole people is put into operation to protect their rights and rescue their liberties from violations." we know about the huston plan. we know about the break-in of the psychiatrist's office. we know that there was absolute complete direction on september 3rd when the president indicated that a surreptitious entry had been made in dr. fielding's office,after having met with mr. ehrlichman and mr. young. "protect their rights." "rescue their liberties from violation."
the carolina ratification convention impeachment criteria: those are impeachable "who behave amiss or betray their public trust."4 beginning shortly after the watergate break-in and continuing to the present time,the president has engaged in a series of public statements and actions designed to thwart the lawful investigation by government prosecutors. moreover,the president has made public announcements and assertions bearing on the watergate case,which the evidence will show he knew to be false. these assertions,false assertions,impeachable,those who misbehave. those who "behave amiss or betray the public trust."
james madison again at the constitutional convention: "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution." the constitution charges the president with the task of taking care that the laws be faithfully executed,and yet the president has counseled his aides to commit perjury,willfully disregard the secrecy of grand jury proceedings,conceal surreptitious entry,attempt to compromise a federal judge,while publicly displaying his cooperation with the processes of criminal justice. "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution."
if the impeachment provision in the constitution of the united states will not reach the offenses charged here,then perhaps that 18th-century constitution should be abandoned to a 20th-century paper shredder.
has the president committed offenses,and planned,and directed,and acquiesced in a course of conduct which the constitution will not tolerate? that's the question. we know that. we know the question. we should now forthwith proceed to answer the question. it is reason,and not passion,which must guide our deliberations,guide our debate,and guide our decision.
i yield back the balance of my time,mr. Chairman.

I am the wind, the gentle wind; I am the clouds, the slow, drifting clouds; I am the water, the silent water; I am the mountains, the boundless mountains… If you so want, I will be the gentle wind that will wrap around your lonely spirit! If you so desire, I will be the slow, drifting clouds that will unquestioningly be your support! If you so wish, I will be that silent water, without a murmur, protecting you by your side. If you so will, I will love you unrelentingly, just like those boundless, unbroken mountain ranges and valleys! But, I regret I am not the wind and not able to take care of you. I hate that I am not the clouds and not able to bring you warmth; I pity myself that I am not the water and not able to be so pure; I am angry that I am not the mountains and not able to have my love will be as immovable as I would like. I can only be myself this time, my mortal, earthly self, my only self, the only self that I can ever hope to be. I thirst for love but I do not understand her deep mystery. I strive for transcendence but I would rather be silent and nameless. I want to be mature but I would rather remain innocent. I would like that she love me, but I do not know even if I truly love her! Endless searching, thirsting, striving, pursuing-where are my goals? Where is my future? In this mundane world, I am one lonely speck; in this universe I am a powerless particle of dust. My love, thought beautiful, is nothing great in itself. And so, I ask only to live as well as I can. In truth, there is no need to live one‘s life basking in glory, rising above men—— so long as one’s life has some value, has some security… Fearless and capricious, love will cause me great pain. Youth, transient and inconstant, will bring me loneliness. Work, busy and mindless, will make me lost. I am just searching for and waiting for some of that which shines, that which is radiant in life…

Christmas Morning
light drizzle was falling as my sister Jill and I ran out of the Methodist Church, eager to get home and play with the presents that Santa had left for us and our baby sister, Sharon. Across the street from the church was a Pan American gas station where the Greyhound bus stopped. It was closed for Christmas, but I noticed a family standing outside the locked door, huddled under the narrow overhang in an attempt to keep dry. I wondered briefly why they were there but then forgot about them as I raced to keep up with Jill.
Once we got home, there was barely time to enjoy our presents. We had to go off to our grandparents' house for our annual Christmas dinner. As we drove down the highway through town, I noticed that the family was still there, standing outside the closed gas station.
My father was driving very slowly down the highway. The closer we got to the turnoff for my grandparents' house, the slower the car went. Suddenly, my father U-turned in the middle of the road and said, “I can’t stand it!”
“What?” asked my mother.
“It's those people back there at the Pan Am, standing in the rain. They’ve got children. It's Christmas. I can’t stand it.”
When my father pulled into the service station, I saw that there were five of them: the parents and three children — two girls and a small boy.
My father rolled down his window. “Merry Christmas,” he said.
“Howdy,” the man replied. He was very tall and had to stoop slightly to peer into the car.
Jill, Sharon, and I stared at the children, and they stared back at us.
“You waiting on the bus?” my father asked.
The man said that they were. They were going to Birmingham, where he had a brother and prospects of a job.
“Well, that bus isn't going to come along for several hours, and you’re getting wet standing here. Winborn's just a couple miles up the road. They’ve got a shed with a cover there, and some benches,” my father said. “Why don't y'all get in the car and I’ll run you up there.”
The man thought about it for a moment, and then he beckoned to his family. They climbed into the car. They had no luggage, only the clothes they were wearing. Once they settled in, my father looked back over his shoulder and asked the children if Santa had found them yet. Three glum faces mutely gave him his answer.
“Well, I didn't think so,” my father said, winking at my mother, “because when I saw Santa this morning, he told me that he was having trouble finding y’all, and he asked me if he could leave your toys at my house. We'll just go get them before I take you to the bus stop.”
All at once, the three children's faces lit up, and they began to bounce around in the back seat, laughing and chattering.
When we got out of the car at our house, the three children ran through the front door and straight to the toys that were spread out under our Christmas tree. One of the girls spied Jill's doll and immediately hugged it to her breast. I remember that the little boy grabbed Sharon’s ball. And the other girl picked up something of mine. All this happened a long time ago, but the memory of it remains clear. That was the Christmas when my sisters and I learned the joy of making others happy.
My mother noticed that the middle child was wearing a short-sleeved dress, so she gave the girl Jill's only sweater to wear.
My father invited them to join us at our grandparents' for Christmas dinner, but the parents refused. Even when we all tried to talk them into coming, they were firm in their decision.
Back in the car, on the way to Winborn, my father asked the man if he had money for bus fare.
His brother had sent tickets, the man said.
My father reached into his pocket and pulled out two dollars, which was all he had left until his next payday. He pressed the money into the man's hand. The man tried to give it back, but my father insisted. “It’ll be late when you get to Birmingham, and these children will be hungry before then. Take it. I've been broke before, and I know what it’s like when you can't feed your family.”
We left them there at the bus stop in Winborn. As we drove away, I watched out the window as long as I could, looking back at the little girl hugging her new doll.

尊敬的評委,同學(xué)們:
下午好!
最近,在我們的社會中有一場激烈的辯論。大學(xué)生是一種罕見特權(quán)的受益者,他們在特殊的地方接受特殊的教育。但是,我們能夠面對挑戰(zhàn),戰(zhàn)勝一切困難嗎?我們能夠改善他人的生活嗎?我們能接受建設(shè)國家未來的'責(zé)任嗎?
憤世嫉俗者說,大學(xué)生是嬌生慣養(yǎng)的失落的一代,他們會對最輕微的不適感到畏縮。但是憤世嫉俗者錯了。我看到的大學(xué)生都在急切地學(xué)習(xí)如何獨立生活。我們互相幫忙打掃宿舍,一起逛街砍價,兼職補充零花錢。
憤世嫉俗者說我們只關(guān)心成績;我們忽視了性格培養(yǎng)的需要。但憤世嫉俗者又錯了。我們彼此深切關(guān)懷,我們珍惜自由,我們珍惜正義,我們追求真理。上周,我的數(shù)千名同學(xué)進行了血型測試,以便為患有血癌的兒童做出貢獻。
作為大學(xué)生,我們是處在人生關(guān)鍵轉(zhuǎn)折點的青少年。我們都面臨著一個根本性的選擇:犬儒主義還是信仰,每一個都將深刻地影響我們的未來,甚至我們國家的未來。我相信我所有的同學(xué)。雖然我們?nèi)匀粵]有經(jīng)驗,甚至有點幼稚。我相信我們有勇氣和信念去迎接任何挑戰(zhàn),承擔(dān)我們的責(zé)任。我們正準(zhǔn)備承擔(dān)新的責(zé)任和任務(wù),并利用我們接受的教育使我們的世界變得更美好。我相信我們的未來。

Do I Need To Like Myself?
Yes! People who don't like themselves are a pain in the neck!
Usually,people with a poor self-image use one of two irritating strategies. They either:
a) criticize you a lot or.
b) they criticize themselves a lot.
STRATEGY A: They criticize you a lot. They figure that by criticizing other people they can feel better about themselves.
Let's take Fred,who feels inferior. Fred thinks he has a big nose and piggy eyes. He also secretly feels a bit stupid.
So what's his strategy to feel better about himself? He criticizes all his friends. He has names for them like “Flathead”,“Chicken Legs” and “Dogbrain”. Whenever someone else makes a mistake,he announces it to the whole class. (He probably doesn't even realize he criticizes people—or why he does it.)
If you have parents,friends or brothers and sisters who don't like themselves—they might criticize you and everyone around them. Just remember that they criticize you because they have a problem. If you remember that they are actually hurting inside,you won't get so upset by their behaviour.
STRATEGY B: Some people who don't like themselves criticize themselves a lot. They use reverse psychology...
Take Mary who doesn't like herself. She's always telling you,“You are prettier than me. You are smarter. Nobody likes me.” She's hoping that you will reply,“No Mary! You are clever. You are beautiful.” After a while,people like Mary get on your nerves!
In a nutshell.
When we don't like ourselves,we irritate other people. We also put ourselves through a lot of stress. When we accept ourselves a little better,we don't play these games.
How Can I Like Myself﹖
In our hearts,most of us believe we should be doing better. We think that we should have gotten higher grades. We want to be popular and hang out with the “in” crowd. We feel we don't measure up to our parents' expectations. Our parents help to confirm this idea when they ask,“Why can't you be more like your brother?”
Whenever you are feeling low,be your own best friend. Accept that,up to now,you have lived your life the best way you know how. No one sets out to screw up their life! Like anyone,you've done the odd stupid thing. With more information you'll likely do better in the future.
Liking yourself means forgiving yourself. If you have made some serious mistakes,if you have hurt some people—and yourself—feeling guilty won't help.
If you are feeling guilty about something,you have already suffered enough. Being guilty for another six months won't help anybody.
Forget perfection and aim for improvement.
It's a funny thing. When you forgive yourself for your own mistakes,you automatically begin to let others off the hook for the same things.
“But I'm Not Brilliant...”
You might look at yourself and say,“I'm not as beautiful as my sister,I'm not as talented as my friends and I'm not brilliant at anything! How can I feel good about me?”
Fact: Nobody is good at everything and most of us have those thoughts!
But here's the lowdown! Talent and beauty are very useful—but there are plenty of talented and beautiful people around whom we don't necessarily admire. And some of them are a pan in the butt!
The qualities most of us value above all others are honesty,courage,persistence,generosity and humility. Take a look at this list and you'll find something interesting. You aren't born with these things. You develop them. Anyone can have them! If you want self-respect,and respect from others,you don't have to be an Einstein or a super-model.
You simply work at developing your own honesty,determination,generosity,humility and courage. It is called “character”.
In a nutshell
How you feel about yourself is in your hands.

親愛的朋友們:
今天,我想談?wù)剷r間。我演講的題目是時間是我們的生命。每個人都知道時間每時每刻都在流逝。它沒有。不要等你。如何利用時間是我們生活中的一個問題。在這里,我想告訴你一句話:不要浪費時間。
人們常說:時間就是金錢。對我來說,時間就是知識。時間對每個人都是公平的。如果我能適當(dāng)利用時間,我會是一個好的學(xué)習(xí)者。作為一個好的學(xué)習(xí)者,我會獲得更多的知識。有了更多的.知識,我將有一個更光明的未來。那我就有理想的生活了。
經(jīng)常聽到有人說:時間過得真快。也許吧。但是朋友們,如果你有時間抱怨時間過得太快,為什么不呢?你沒有利用這段時間做一些有用的事情嗎?我讀過一本書。那本書的作者說:老了不要后悔。所以我們必須做我們想做的事情,這樣當(dāng)我們老了的時候,我們就贏了。感覺不到
親愛的朋友們,我們必須明智地利用時間,我們才能有一個更光明的未來,我們的國家才能更加強大和美麗。
那是。僅此而已。謝謝大家的傾聽。
小學(xué)生英語即興演講:短文3眾所周知,英語在今天非常重要。世界各地都在使用它。它已經(jīng)成為互聯(lián)網(wǎng)和國際貿(mào)易中最常用的語言。如果我們能說好英語,我們將有更多的機會成功。因為越來越多的人注意到了這一點,所以去學(xué)英語的人數(shù)以高速增長。
但是對我自己來說,我學(xué)習(xí)英語不僅僅是因為它的重要性和實用性,還因為我對它的熱愛。當(dāng)我學(xué)習(xí)英語時,我能感受到一種不同的思維方式,這給了我更多接觸世界的空間。當(dāng)我讀英語小說時,我可以從書中感受到不同于閱讀翻譯的樂趣。當(dāng)我說英語時,我可以從我的話語中感受到自信。當(dāng)我寫英語時,我能看到和我們中國人不一樣的美......
我喜歡英語,它給了我一個多彩的夢。我希望有一天我能環(huán)游世界。憑借我良好的英語,我可以和許多來自不同國家的人交朋友。我可以看到許多名勝古跡。我夢想我能去倫敦,因為它是英語的發(fā)源地。
我也想用我良好的英語向說英語的人介紹我們偉大的地方,我希望他們能像我們一樣熱愛我們的國家。
我知道,羅馬不是一天建成的。我相信經(jīng)過不斷的努力學(xué)習(xí),總有一天我會把英語說得很好。
想要被愛,就要學(xué)會去愛,去討喜。所以我相信當(dāng)我每天熱愛英語時,它也會愛我。
我相信有一天我會實現(xiàn)我的夢想!
