while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.

sexual orientation, the whole works, right?

68
Through anything.

82
You're an orphan, right?
83
Do you think I'd know the first thing about how hard your life has been?
84
How you feel, who you are,
85
because I read all of the twist. Does that encapsulate you?
86
Personally, I don't give a shit about all that, because you know what?
87
I can't learn anything from you.
88
I can't read in some fucking book.
89
Unless you want to talk about you, who you are. And I'm fascinated.
90
I'm in.
91
But you don't want to do that to your sport.
92
You're terrified of what you might say.
93
Your move, chief.
94
You ain't gonna believe this.
95
What you used to fit right here,
96
I'd hold you up and say to your mother,
97
this kid's gonna be the best kid in the world.
98
This kid's gonna be somebody better than anybody ever knew.
99
And you grew up good and wonderful.
100
It was great just watching.
101
Every day was like a privilege.
102
Then the time come for you to be your own man and take on the world,
103
and you did.
104
But somewhere along the line, you changed.
105
You stopped being you.
106
You let people stick a finger in your face and tell you you're no good.
107
And when things got hard,
108
you started looking for something to blame, like a big shadow.
109
Let me tell you something you already know.
110
The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows.
111
It's a very mean and nasty place,
112
and I don't care how tough you are,
113
it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it.
114
You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life.
115
But it ain't about how hard you hit.
116
It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.
117
How much you can take and keep moving forward.
118
That's how winning is done.
119
Now, if you know what you're worth,
120
now go out and get what you're worth.
121
But you gotta be willing to take the hits
122
and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you want to be because of him or her or anybody.
123
Cowards do that and that ain't you.
124
You're better than that.
125
I'm always gonna love you no matter what.
126
No matter what happens.
127
You're my son, you're my blood.
128
You're the best thing in my life.
129
But until you start believing in yourself,
130
You gotta have a life.
131
Don't forget to visit your mother. Were you meditating?
132
Well, now, let me see.
133
You know, I don't have any idea what that means.
134
Well, it means you're ready to rejoin society.
135
I know what you think it means, honey.
136
To me, it's just a made-up word.
137
A politician's word, so that young fellas like yourself can wear a suit and a tie and have a job.
138
What do you really want to know?
139
Am I sorry for what I did?
140
Well, I am.
141
There's not a day goes by I don't feel regret.
142
Not because I'm in here,
143
because you think I should.
144
I look back on the way I was then.
145
A young, stupid kid who committed that terrible crime.
146
I want to talk to him.
147
I want to try to talk some sense to him.
148
Tell him the way things are. But I can't.
149
That kid's long gone and this old man is all that's left.
150
I gotta live with that.
151
Rehabilitate it.
152
It's just a bullshit word.
153
So you go on and stamp your form,
154
Sonny, and stop wasting my time.
155
Because to tell you the truth,
156
I don't give a shit.
157
Why is America...
158
Not the greatest country in the world, Professor.
159
That's my answer.
160
You're saying...
161
Yes.
162
Let's talk about...
163
Fine.
164
Sharon, the NEA is a loser.
165
Yeah, it accounts for a penny out of our paycheck,
166
but he gets to hit you with it any time he wants.
167
It doesn't cost money, it costs votes.
168
It costs air time and column inches.
169
You know why people don't like liberals?
170
Because they lose.
171
If liberals are so fucking smart,
172
how can they lose so goddamn always?
173
Hey!
174
And with a straight face,
175
you're gonna tell students that America is so star-spangled awesome that we're the only ones in the world who have freedom?
176
Canada has freedom.
177
Japan has freedom.
178
The UK, France, Italy, Germany,
179
Spain, Australia, Belgium has freedom.
180
207 sovereign states in the world,
181
like 180 of them have freedom.
182
All right.
183
And yet you, sorority girl,
184
just in case you accidentally wander into a voting booth one day,
185
there's some things you should know.
186
And one of them is,
187
there is absolutely no evidence to support the statement that we're the greatest country in the world.
188
We're seventh in literacy, 27th in math,
189
22nd in science, 49th in life expectancy,
190
178th in infant mortality, third in median household income,
191
number four in labor force,
192
and number four in exports.
193
We lead the world in only three categories.
194
of incarcerated citizens per capita,
195
number of adults who believe angels are real,
196
and defense spending, where we spend more than the next 26 countries combined,
197
25 of whom are allies.
198
Now, none of this is the fault of a 20-year-old college student,
199
but you, nonetheless, are, without a doubt,
200
a member of the worst period generation period ever period.
201
So when you ask what makes us the greatest country in the world,
202
I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
203
Yosemite?
204
Sure used to be.
205
We stood up for what was right.
206
We fought for moral reasons.
207
We passed laws, struck down laws for moral reasons.
208
We waged wars on poverty, not poor people.
209
We sacrificed.
210
We cared about our neighbors.
211
We put our money where our mouths were,
212
and we never beat our chest.
213
We built great big things,
214
made ungodly technological advances, explored the universe,
215
cured diseases, and we cultivated the world's greatest artists and the world's greatest economy.
216
We reached for the stars, acted like men.
217
We aspired to intelligence.
218
We didn't belittle it.
219
It didn't make us feel inferior.
220
We didn't identify ourselves by who we voted for in the last election,
221
and we didn't scare so easy.
222
We were able to be all these things and do all these things because we were informed by great men,
223
men who were revered.
224
First step in solving any problem is recognizing there is one.
225
What's been wrong with me for 19 years?
226
I've been a witness and I tell you I've been complicit.
227
I love you, Steve.
228
You know how much.
229
I love that you don't care how much money a person makes,
230
you care what they make.
231
But what you make isn't supposed to be the best part of you.
232
When you're a father That's what's supposed to be the best part of you and it's caused me two decades of agony,
233
Steve, that it is for you.
234
the worst.
235
It's a little thing.
236
It's a very small thing.
237
Fix it.
238
Fix it now.
239
Or you can contact me at my new job.
240
Working anywhere I want.
241
I'm sorry, Will.
242
You know what?
243
Actually, this works out better for me.
244
You know, it is slim as a summer coming to class wearing next to nothing.
245
You know what I'm saying?
246
Well, it's all right to be angry.
247
Hey, why should I be mad?
248
I'm saying, at least he said goodbye this time.
249
I just wish I hadn't wasted my money buying this stupid present.
250
I'm sorry.
251
If there was something that I could do.
252
Hey, you know what?
253
You ain't got to do nothing, Uncle Phil.
254
Ain't like I'm still five years old, you know?
255
Ain't like I'm going to be sitting up every night asking my mom,
256
when's daddy coming home, you know?
257
Who needs him?
258
Hey, he wasn't there to teach me how to shoot my first basket,
259
but I learned, didn't I?
260
Hey, I got pretty damn good attitude, didn't I, Uncle Phil?
261
Got through my first date without him, right?
262
I learned how to drive.
263
I learned how to shave.
264
I learned how to fight without him.
265
I had 14 great birthdays without him.
266
He never even sent me a damn card.
267
Down with him!
268
I need him then, and I don't need him now.
269
Well, well.
270
You know what, Uncle Phil?
271
I'm going to get through college without him.
272
I'm going to get a great job without him.
273
I'm going to marry me a beautiful honey.
274
And I'm having me a whole bunch of kids.
275
I'm going to be a better father than he ever was.
276
And I sure as hell don't need him for that,
277
because ain't a damn thing he could ever teach me about how to love my kids.
278
How come he don't want me, man?
279
You know, we're sitting here.
280
You and I, like a couple of regular fellas,
281
you do what you do,
282
I do what I gotta do.
283
And now that we've been face to face,
284
if I'm there and I gotta put you away, I won't like it.
285
But I'll tell you, if it's between you and some poor bastard whose wife you're gonna turn into a widow,
286
Brother, you are going down.
287
I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor.
288
That's not my business.
289
I don't want to rule or conquer anyone.
290
I should like to help everyone if possible.
291
Jew, Gentile, black man, white.
292
We all want to help one another.
293
Human beings are like that.
294
We want to live by each other's happiness,
295
not by each other's misery.
296
We don't want to hate and despise one another.
297
In this world, there's room for everyone,
298
and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone.
299
The way of life can be free and beautiful,
300
but we have lost the way.
301
Greed has poisoned men's souls,
302
has barricaded the world with hate,
303
has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed.
304
We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in.
305
Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want left us in want.
306
Our knowledge has made us cynical,
307
our cleverness hard and unkind.
308
We think too much and feel too little.
309
More than machinery, we need humanity.
310
More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness.
311
Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.
312
The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together.
313
The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men,
314
cries out for universal brotherhood,
315
for the unity of us all.
316
Even now, my voice is reaching millions throughout the world,
317
millions of despairing men, women and children,
318
victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.
319
To those who can hear me,
320
I say, do not despair.
321
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed,
322
the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
323
The hate of men will pass and dictators die,
324
and the power they took from the people will return to the people.
325
And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
326
Soldiers, don't give yourselves to brutes,
327
men who despise you, enslave you,
328
who regiment your lives, tell you what to do,
329
what to think, and what to feel,
330
who drill you, diet you,
331
treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder.
332
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men,
333
machine men with machine minds and machine hearts.
334
You are not machines.
335
You are not cattle.
336
You are men.
337
You have the love of humanity in your hearts.
338
You don't hate, only the unloved hate,
339
the unloved and the unnatural.
340
Soldiers, don't fight for slavery, fight for liberty.
341
In the 17th chapter of St. Luke,
342
it is written, the kingdom of God is within man,
343
not one man nor a group of men,
344
but in all men, in you,
345
you the people have the power,
346
the power to create machines,
347
the power to create happiness.
348
You the people have the power to make this life free and beautiful,
349
to make this life a wonderful adventure.
350
Then in the name of democracy,
351
let us use that power.
352
Let us all unite.
353
Let us fight for a new world,
354
a decent world, that will give men a chance to work,
355
that will give youth a future and old age a security.
356
By the promise of these things,
357
brutes have risen to power, but they lie.
358
They do not fulfill that promise.
359
They never will.
360
Dictators free themselves, but they enslave the people.
361
Now let us fight to fulfill that promise.
362
Let us fight to free the world,
363
to do away with national barriers,
364
to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance.
365
Let us fight for a world of reason,
366
a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
367
Soldiers, in the name of democracy, let us all unite!
368
Thank you.

Guida Passo-passo al Shadowing
Per affrontare la difficoltà di questo specifico video e migliorare la tua pronuncia in inglese, ti consigliamo di seguire questa guida di shadow speak:
- Ascolto Attivo: Inizia ascoltando il video senza fermarti. Presta attenzione alla pronuncia, all'intonazione e all'emozione del parlato.
- Segmentazione: Dividi il dialogo in frasi più brevi. Questo ti permetterà di concentrarti su ogni parte senza sentirti sopraffatto.
- Ripetizione Immediata: Dopo aver ascoltato una frase, prova a ripeterla ad alta voce. Fai attenzione a imitare la pronuncia e il ritmo dell'oratore.
- Registrazione: Registrati mentre ripeti le frasi. Questo ti aiuterà a sentire i tuoi progressi e a identificare aree da migliorare.
- Pratica Costante: Esegui questa routine di shadowing in inglese quotidianamente. Più ti allenerai, migliore sarà la tua pronuncia e fluidità.
Ricorda che il shadowspeak è un metodo eccellente per rafforzare le tue competenze linguistiche. Con la pratica costante, potrai confrontarti con conversazioni sempre più complesse e migliorare notevolmente le tue abilità comunicative.
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
