以下這篇演講稿是著名作家海明威在1954年獲得諾貝爾文學獎時的致辭，供大家學習參考。
no writer who knows the great writers who did not receive the prize can accept it other than with humility. there is no need to list these writers. everyone here may make his own list according to his knowledge and his conscience.
沒有一個作家，當他知道在他以前不少偉大的作家並沒有獲得此項獎金的時候，能夠心安理得地領獎而不感到受之有愧。這裡無須一一列舉這些作家的名字。在座的每一個人，都可以根據他的學識和良心提出自己名單來。 it would be impossible for me to ask the ambassador of my country to read a speech in which a writer saidall 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.
要求我國的大使在這兒宣讀一篇演說，把一個作家心中所有感受說出來那是不可能的。一個人作品中的一些東西可能不會馬上被人理解，在這點上，他有時是幸運的;但是這一切終究會十分清晰起來，通過它們以及作家所具有的點石成金的本領之大小，他將青史留名或被人遺忘。
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.
很多時候，寫作是一種孤寂的生活。作家組織固然可以排遣他們的孤獨，但是我懷疑它們是否能夠促進作家的創作。一個在稠人廣眾之中成長起來的作家，自然可以免除孤苦寂寥之慮，但他的作品往往流於平庸。而一個在孤寂中工作的作家，如果他又確實不同凡響，那他就必須面對永恆或者面對缺乏永恆的每一天。
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.
對於一個真正的作家來說，每一本書都應該成為他繼續探索那些尚未涉及的領域的一個新起點。他應該永遠嘗試去做那些從來沒有人做過或者他人做過但卻已經失敗的事。這樣他就會有幸獲得成功。
how simple the writing of literature would be if it were only necessary to write in another way what has been well 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.
如果僅僅是將已經寫好的作品換一種方式來重新詮釋，那么文學創作就顯得太輕而易舉了。我們的前輩大師們留下了偉大的業績，正因為如此，一個普通作家常被他們逼人的光輝驅趕到遠離他可能到達的地方，陷於孤立無援的境地。
i have spoken too long for a writer. a writer should write what he has to say and not speak it.
作為一個作家，我講的已經太多了。作家應當把自己要說的話寫下來，而不是說出來。
again i thank you.
再一次謝謝大家。
