富兰克林-罗斯福第一次就职演讲

星期六,1933年3月4日

我肯定，同胞们都期待我在就任总统时，会像我国目前形势所要求的那样，坦率而果断地向他们讲话。

现在正是但白、勇敢地说出实话，说出全部实话的最好时刻，我们不必畏首畏尾，不着老实实面对我国今天的情况，这个伟大的国家会一如既住地坚持下去，它会复兴和繁荣起来。

因此，让我首先表明我的坚定信念：

我们唯一下得不害怕的就是害怕本身——一种莫明其妙的、丧失理智的、毫无根据的恐惧，它会把转退为进所需的种种努力化为泡影。

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，从而为胜利准备了必不可少的条件。

我相信，在目前危急时刻，大家会再次给予同样的支持。

我们唯一不得不害怕的就是害怕本身

我和你们都要以这种槽神，来面对我们共同的困难。

感谢上帝，这些困难只是物质方面的。

价值难以想象地贬缩了；

课税增加了，我们的支付能力下降了；

各级政府面临着严重的收入短缺；

交换手段在贸易过程中遭到了冻结；

工业企业枯萎的落叶到处可见；

农场主的产品找不到销路；

千家万户多年的积蓄付之东流。

更重要的是，大批失业公民正面临严峻的生育问题，还有大批公民正以艰辛的劳动换取微薄的报酬。

只有愚蠢的乐天派会否认当前这些阴暗的现实。

但是，我们的苦恼决不是因为缺乏物资。

我们没有遭到什么蝗虫灾害。

我们的先辈曾以信念和无畏一次次转危为安，比起他们经历过的险阻，我们仍大可感到欣慰。

大自然仍在给予我们恩惠，人类的努力已使之倍增。

富足的憎景近在咫尺，但就在我们见到这种情景的时候，宽裕的生活却悄然离去。

这主要是因为主宰人类物资交换的统治者们失败了，他们固执己见而又无能为力，因而已经认定失败，并撒手不管了，贪得无厌的货币兑换商的种种行径，将受到舆论法庭的起诉，将受到人类心灵和理智的唾弃。

幸福并不在于单纯地占有主钱；

幸福还在于取得成就后的喜悦，在于创造性努力时的激情。

务必不能再忘记劳动带来的喜悦和激励，而去
