海明威是一个美国作家，曾一举获得诺贝尔文学奖。他是一个文学造诣极高的作家，在全世界各地都有着他忠实的书迷粉丝。但在生前，他也曾受尽人们的诋毁和奚落，最终他选择亲手结束自己的生命。接下来就让小编为大家带来名人海明威在获得诺贝尔讲后所作的3分钟的演讲，让我们一起来看看这篇英语演讲稿吧。

原文：

No writer who knows the great writers who did not receive the Prize can accept it other than with hum ility. There is no need to list these writers. Everyone here may make his own list according to his knowledge and his conscience.

It would be impossible for me to ask the Ambassador of my country to read a speech in which a writer said all of the things which are in his heart. Things may not be immediately discernible in what a man writes, and in this sometimes he is fortunate; but eventually they are quite clear and by these and the degree of alchemy that he possesses he will endure or be forgotten.

Writing at its best is a lonely life. Organizations for writers palliate the writer's loneliness, but I doubt if they improve his writing. He grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates. For he does his work alone, and if he is a good enough writer, he must face eternity or the lack of it each day.

For a true writer, each book should be a new beginning where he tries again for something that is beyond attainment. He should always try for something that has never been done or that others have tried and failed. Then sometimes, with good luck, he will succeed.

How simple the writing of literature would be if it were only necessary write in another way what has been well to written. It is because we have had such great writers in the past that a writer is driven far out past where he can go, out to where no one can help him.

I have spoken too long for a writer. A writer should write what he has to say and not speak it.  

翻译:

没有一个作家,当他知道在他以前不少伟大的作家并没有获得此奖项的时候,能够心安理得地领奖而不感到受之有愧。这里无须一一列举这些作家的名字。在座的每一位都可以根据学识和良心列出自己的名单。

要求我国的大使在这儿宣读一篇演说,把一个作家心中所有的感受说出来那是不可能的。一个人作品中的一些东西可能不会马上被人理解,在这点上,他有时是幸运的;但是这一切终究会十分清晰起来,根据它们以及作家所具备的点石成金的本领之大小,他将青史留名或被人遗忘。

很多时候,写作是一种孤寂的生活。作家组织固然可以排遣他们的孤独,但是我怀疑它们是否能够促进作家的创作。一个在稠人广众之中成长起来的作家,虽然可以免除孤苦寂寥之虑,但他的作品往往流于平庸。而一个在孤寂中工作的作家,如果他又确实不同凡响,那他就必须面对永恒或者面对缺乏永恒的每一夭。

对于一个真正的作家来说,每一本书都应该成为他继续努力获得更高成就的新起点。他应该不断尝试去做那些从来没有人做过的或者他人做过却失败了的事。这样他就可能有幸获得成功。

如果仅仅是将已经写好的作品换另一种方法来重新诠释,那么文学创作就显得太轻而易举了。过去有过太伟大的作家以至于现在一个普通作家常被他们逼人的光样驱赶到远离他可能到达的地方,陷于孤立无援的境地。

作为一个作家,我已经讲得太多了。作家应该把他要说的话写下来,而不是说出来。
