我希望各位毕业生们在今后
Today I wish to focus on the courage
能拥有承认自己无知的勇气
to acknowledge all we do not know
倾听与你意见相反的观点
Listening to that with which we may disagree is an act
并不是一种妥协
not of conciliation
而是对真理的忠诚
but of fidelity to truth
承认自己的错误并不意味着你失败了
And admitting what we got wrong is no
sign of failure
反而是你走向博学的必经之路
but a necessary step toward knowledge
真正富有智慧的教育
The mark of a great education
不仅在于探索了多少未知
consists not only of the new frontiers of knowledge we reach
更在于对现有的偏见有多少反思
but if the existing viewpoints we reconsider
并不一定非要收获多少新的理解
not necessarily of the understanding we gain
而在于我们放弃了多少错误假设
but if the assumptions we shed
谦逊--也就是勇于承认我们错了
Humility, that willingness to say we are wrong
使我们能够在终生追求真理的道路上
上enables us to scale otherwise unattainable heights
攀登到原来难以企及的高度
in the lifelong pursuit of knowledge
