Taylor Swift's NYU Commencement Speech (2022)

Hi, I'm Taylor.

大家好，我是泰勒。

Last time I was in a stadium this size, I was dancing in heels and wearing a glittery leotard.

上次我身处如此规模的体育场时，我正穿着高跟鞋跳舞，身披亮片紧身衣。

This outfit is much more comfortable.

这套服装要舒适得多。

I would like to say a huge thank you to NYU's Chair of the Board of Trustees, Bill Berkley, and all the trustees and members of the board.

我想向纽约大学校董会主席比尔·伯克利以及所有校董和董事会成员致以最诚挚的谢意。

NYU's President Andrew Hamilton, Provost Katherine Fleming, and the faculty and alumni here today, who have made this day possible.

感谢纽约大学校长安德鲁·汉密尔顿、教务长凯瑟琳·弗莱明，以及在座的教职员工和校友，是你们让今天成为可能。

I feel so proud to share this day with my fellow honorees Susan Hockfield and Félix Matos Rodríguez, who humble me with the ways they improve our world with their work.

能与我的同获殊荣者苏珊·霍克菲尔德和费利克斯·马托斯·罗德里格斯分享这一天，我感到无比自豪，他们的工作改善了我们世界的方式让我深感谦卑。

As for me, I'm 90% sure the main reason I'm here is because I have a song called "22."

至于我，我有九成把握我来这里的主要原因是因为我有一首叫《22》的歌。

And let me just say, I am elated to be here with you today, as we celebrate and graduate New York University's Class of 2022.

请允许我说，能和大家一起庆祝并见证纽约大学2022届毕业生的毕业时刻，我欣喜若狂。

Not a single one of us here today has done it alone.

今天在座的我们中，没有一个人是独自取得成功的。

We are each a patchwork quilt of those who have loved us, those who have believed in our futures,

我们每个人都是由那些爱过我们、相信我们未来的人拼凑而成的百衲衣。
