But neither can two great 但两个强大的

and powerful groups of nations 民族国家集团

take comfort from our present course, 也无法从我们目前的道路中感到安心，

both sides overburdened 双方都背负着沉重的负担，

by the cost of modern weapons, 现代武器的巨大开销，

both rightly alarmed 双方都理所当然地感到震惊，

by the steady spread of the deadly atom, 致命核武器的不断扩散，

yet both racing to alter 然而双方都在竞相改变

that uncertain balance of terror 那种不确定的恐怖平衡，

that stays the hand of mankind's final war. 这种平衡阻止了人类最终战争的爆发。

So let us begin anew, 那么，让我们重新开始，

remembering on both sides 双方都应记住，

that civility is not a sign of weakness 文明并非软弱的标志，

and sincerity 而真诚

is always subject to proof. 总是需要证明的。

Let us never negotiate out of fear, 让我们永远不要因为恐惧而谈判，

but let us never fear to negotiate. 但也永远不要害怕谈判。

Let both sides explore what problems unite us. 让双方探讨哪些问题能使我们团结，

instead of belaboring those problems 而不是纠缠于那些

which divide us. 分裂我们的问题。
