相隔20年，两人的讲演词挺呼应的，火炬，灯塔，美国梦。
Remarks by Ronald Reagan [15:40 Beijing Time, Arpil 30 1984, Auditorium at Fudan University, Shanghai, PRC]
America is really many Americas. We call ourselves a nation of immigrants.... We have drawn people from every corner of the Earth.... We have a statue in New York Harbor that speaks of this, a statue of a woman holding a torch of welcome to those who enter our country to become Americans. She has greeted millions upon millions of immigrants to our country. She welcomes them still. She represents our open door.
Pre-taped remarks by Magaret Thatcher [11:50 EDT, June 11 2004, National Cathedral, Washington DC, USA]
Nothing was more typical of Ronald Reagan than that large-hearted magnanimity -- and nothing was more American.
Therein lies perhaps the final explanation of his achievements. Ronald Reagan carried the American people with him in his great endeavours because there was perfect sympathy between them. He and they loved America and what it stands for -- freedom and opportunity for ordinary people. As an actor in Hollywood's golden age, he helped to make the American dream live for millions all over the globe. His own life was a fulfilment of that dream....
For the final years of his life, Ronnie's mind was clouded by illness. That cloud has now lifted. He is himself again --- more himself than at any time on this earth.... And as the last journey of this faithful pilgrim took him beyond the sunset, and as heaven's morning broke, I like to think -- in the words of Bunyan -- that "all the trumpets sounded on the other side."
We here still move in twilight. But we have one beacon to guide us that Ronald Reagan never had. We have his example. Let us give thanks today for a life that achieved so much for all of God's children.
