畢業典禮致詞集錦

又到了畢業「旺季」，很多人再有機會上台大秀人生智慧（鐘點費不曉得怎麼算？），新聞媒體也多了一個素材。且聽聽這些智者怎麼說，過去說的，和現在說的。

• Turn your wounds into wisdom. You will be wounded many times in your life. You'll make mistakes. Some people will call them failures but I have learned that failure is really God's way of saying, 'Excuse me, you're moving in the wrong direction.' It's just an experience, just an experience. （摘自Beyond Blue - Therese J. Borchard）

  把你的傷口化為智慧。這一輩子，你會受傷很多次。你會犯錯，有人會說那是失敗，但我學會，失敗其實是上帝婉轉地說：「對不起，你走錯了方向。」那只是一次經驗，一次經驗而已。
  
  ~ 歐普拉‧溫芙蕾（Oprah Winfrey）, Wellesley College commencement, 1997
  
  
• Whoever you work for, if they’re any good at all, they’re going to be constantly measuring you against your peers.
  
  不管你在什麼人底下工作，如果他們還算優秀的話，一定會不斷拿你和同儕比較。（原文請看這裡。）
