 Bill
Gates ：
President Bok, former President Rudenstine,
incoming President Faust, members of the Harvard
Corporation and the Board of Overseers, members
of the faculty, parents, and especially, the
graduates:
I've been waiting more than 30 years to say
this: "Dad, I always told you I'd come back and
get my degree."
I want to thank Harvard for this timely honor.
I'll be changing my job next year...and it will
be nice to finally have a college degree on my
resume.
I applaud the graduates today for taking a much
more direct route to your degrees. For my part,
I'm just happy that the Crimson has called me
"Harvard's most successful dropout." I guess
that makes me valedictorian of my own special
class...I did the best of everyone who failed.

尊敬的Bok校长、Rudenstine前校长、即将上任的Faust校长、哈佛集团的各位成员、监管理事会的各位理事、各位老师、各位家长、各位同学：
有一句话我等了三十年，现在终于可以说了：“老爸，我总是跟你说，我会回来拿到我的学位的！”
我要感谢哈佛大学在这个时候给我这个荣誉。明年，我就要换工作了（注：指从微软公司退休）……我终于可以在简历上写我有一个本科学位，这真是不错啊。
我为今天在座的各位同学感到高兴，你们拿到学位可比我简单多了。哈佛的校报称我是“哈佛大学历史上最成功的辍学生”。我想这大概使我有资格代表我这一类学生发言……在所有的失败者里，我做得最好。
