这够不够做为证据把泰迪拉下马… (指罗斯福前总统)
NIXON. Well, this is something that we can really hang Teddy or…

晚上好 这是我第三十七次
Good evening. This is the 37th time
在这个办公室里向你们发表演说
I have spoken to you from this office
这里曾经见证了无数个
where so many decisions have been made
影响我们国家命运的决定
that have shaped the history of our nation.
我还记得我当时在哪里
I remember exactly where I was.
我父亲打电♥话♥过来 电♥话♥响了 他说
My father called. The phone rang, my father called and he said,
“快开电视 理查德·尼克松要下台了”
“Turn on the TV right now. Richard Nixon’s going down.”
我那时和朋友一起在家里 看着电视
I was at home with friends, and we were watching television at home.
我们每晚熬夜 和所有人一样
We stayed up and, like everyone else, I’d been glued to
追踪着审判委员会的最新进展
the Select and Judiciary Committee hearings night after night.
结果 我们等到了这个
And then finally, it had come to this.
为此 我将辞去总统职务 从明日正午开始生效
Therefore, I shall resign the presidency effective at noon tomorrow.

But instead of the satisfaction I imagined I’d feel,

There was no apology.
我当时无法想像

that I would one day be part of the team
试图从他口中讨回这次的道歉
that would try and elicit that apology.
在期满前离职 对于我来说
NIXON: To leave office before my term is completed
让我本人极为排斥
is abhorrent to every instinct in my body.
我从来就不是个逃兵
I have never been a quitter.
我也同样没有想到 我们队伍的发起人
And that that team would be led
会是一个最不可能出现的白衣骑士
by the most unlikely of white knights,
他与政界毫无关联
a man with no political convictions whatsoever,
据我知道 他甚至一生中从未投过票
a man who, as far as I know, had never even voted once in his life.
但是与我们剩下的人相比 他有一个很大的优势
But he was a man who had one big advantage over the rest of us.
他懂得怎样操作电视
He understood television.

事实上 我们尼克松大营的人
Well, we in the Nixon camp
对戴维·福斯特没有什么了解
really didn’t know that much about David Frost,
只知道他是个英国的脱口秀主持人
other than he was a British talk show host
而且是个出了名的花♥花♥公♥子♥
with something of a playboy reputation.
他曾在美国主持过脱口秀 得过奖
He’d had a talk show here in the US that had won some awards
不过节目不怎么受欢迎 最后被电视台砍了
but hadn’t syndicated well and had been dropped by the network.
他最后去了澳大利亚发展
He ended up taking it down to Australia,
总统辞职时他应该就在澳大利亚
which is, I believe, where he was when the President resigned.
下周的嘉宾是伊万尔·古拉共
FROST: Next week’s guest will be Evonne Goolagong.
我们下周再见 上帝保佑大家
We’ll see you then. God bless.
