佚名/Anonymous

I believe that the rendering of useful service is the common duty of man kind and that only in the purifying fre of sacrifice is the dross of selfishness consumed and the greatness of the human soul set free.

I believe in an all-wise and all-loving God, named by whatever name, and that the individual's highest fulfillment, greatest happiness, and widest usefulness are to be found in living in harmony with his will.

I believe that love is the greatest thing in the world；that it alone can overcome hate；that right can and will triumph over might.

I believe that thrift is essential to well-ordered living and that economy is a prime requisite of a sound fnancial structure, whether in government, business, or personal affairs.

I believe in the sacredness of a promise, that a man's word should be as good as his bond, that character not wealth or power or position is of supreme worth.

I believe in the supreme worth of the individual and in his right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

I believe that the law was made for man and not man for the law；that government is the servant of the people and not their master.

I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand；that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living.

I believe that truth and justice are fundamental to an enduring social order.

I believe that every right implies a responsibility；every opportunity, an obligation；every possession, a duty.

These are the principles, however formulated, for which all good men and women throughout the world, irrespective of race or creed, education, social position, or occupation, are standing, and for which many of them are suffering and dying.

我相信为他人服务是人类共同的责任，只有经过牺牲之火的燃烧，自私自利的残渣才会灰飞烟灭，人类博大的灵魂才能获得自由。

我相信无所不知、宽容博爱的上帝。不论他冠以何名，一个人的最高成就、最大幸福和最大效用都应与他的意志相协调。

我相信世间最伟大的东西是爱，只有爱能战胜仇恨，正义终能战胜权力。

我相信使人生井然有序的基本因素是勤俭节约，它是一个健全的金融体系最基本的要素。不论是政府、商业，还是个人事务。

我相信神圣的承诺，一个人的言语应该像遵守订立的合同一样。最有价值的是这种品格，而非财富、权力或地位。

我相信每个人都有至高无上的价值，每个人都有生存、自由和追求幸福的权利。

我相信法律是因人而立，而非人为法律而生；政府是人民的仆人，而非主人。

我相信高贵的劳动，不论是脑力还是体力，世界不会保证任何人的生计，但会给每一个人谋生的机会。

我相信维持社会秩序的基石是真理和正义。

我相信每一项权利，意味着责任；每一个机遇，意味着义务；每一份财富，意味着职责。

这些信条，虽然简洁，但全世界的人——不分种族、信仰、职业和社会地位，都在为之挣扎，甚至不惜牺牲生命。

心灵小语

人生重要的在于确立一个伟大的目标，并有决心使其实现。

——歌德
