A time always comes at which the moral principles originally adopted have been carried out to all their legitimate consequences, and then the system founded on them becomes as rigid, as unexpansive, and as liable to fall behind moral progress as the sternest code of rules avowedly legal.

这样一个时期是必然会到来的，就是原来采用的道德原则已经发挥出了所有的合法的结果，于是，建筑在这些道德原则上面的制度，就会像最严峻的法律法典那样地生硬、那样地没有伸缩、那样地不得不落后于道德的进步。

It's true that he's not the head of government—the Supreme Leader and his council of ayatollahs are the chief policymakers—but he's the public face of the country …he's the public voice of the chief state sponsor of terrorism, a country supplying our enemies in Iraq with weapons used to kill Americans and supplying our enemies throughout the Middle East with weapons used to kill Jews.

发言的其它部分则无足观，是前言不搭后语的宗教阐释和政治漫谈的生硬组合。』Josh Marshall对此次演讲的总结是：很难分出胜负，但是昨天的演讲并未提升艾哈迈迪内贾德的形象反而有种贬低效果，美国民众比想像中强大，对于这个问题没有如大部分人预料的一样避而不谈。
