62. The Only Thing We Have to Fear is Fear Itself

62. 我们唯一害怕的是害怕本身

Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money, it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative efforts, the joy and moral stimulation of work no longer must be forgotten in the mad chase of evanescent profits. These dark days, my friends, will be worth all they cost us they teach us that our true destiny is not to be ministered on to, but to minister to ourselves, to our fellow men.

幸福并不仅仅取决于拥有多少钱财，而在于成功的喜悦和创造活动所带来的心灵震颤。务必不能再忘记劳动带来的喜悦和激励，而去疯狂地追逐那转瞬即逝的利润。如采这些暗淡的时日能使我们认识到，我们真正的夭命不是要别人侍奉，而是为自己和同胞们服务，那么，我们付出的代价就完全是值得的。

Recognition of the falsity of material wealth as the standard of success goes hand in hand with the abandonment of a false belief that public office and high political position are to be valued only by the standards of pride of place and personal profits, and there must be an end to our conduct in banking and in business, which too often has given to a sacred trust the likeness of callous and selfish wrong-doing. Small wonder that confidence laguishes, for it thrives only on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of our obligation faithful protection and on unselfish performance. Without them it cannot live.

认识到把物质财富当作成功的标准是错误的，我们就会抛弃以地位尊严和个人收益为唯一标准，来衡量公职和高级政治地位的错误信念;我们必须制止银行界和企业界的一种行为，它常常使神圣的委托混同于无情和自私的不正当行为。难怪信心在减弱，信心，只有靠诚实、信誉、忠心维护和无私履行职责。而没有这些，就不可能有信心。

Restoration calls, however, not for changes in ethics alone. This nation is asking for action, and action now.

但是，单纯坐而论道是完全于事无补的，我们必须行动起来，而且必须迅速行动起来。
