Advice, Anthony Lake


I will try to follow the advice that a university president once gave a prospective commencement speaker. "Think of yourself as the body at an Irish wake" he said. "They need you in order to have the party, but no one expects you to say very much."

나는 대학 총장님이 졸업식에서 했던 충고를 따르려고 합니다. 그분은 말했습니다. "여러분이 초상집에 있다고 생각하십시오. 그들은 여러분을 필요로 합니다. 그러나 아무도 당신이 많은 말을 할 거라 생각하지 않습니다."
