不說了，看完了很傷心，由故事人物自己說吧。O Captain, my Captain.

KEATING: They're not that different from you, are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones, just like you. Invincible, just like you feel. The world is their oyster. They believe they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? - - Carpe - - hear it? - - Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary.

KEATING: We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?" Answer. That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?

MCALLISTER: You take a big risk by encouraging them to be artists John.
When they realize they're not Rembrandts, Shakespeares or Mozarts,
they'll hate you for it.
KEATING: We're not talking artists George, we're talking free thinkers.
MCALLISTER: Free thinkers at seventeen?
KEATING: Funny, I never pegged you as a cynic.
MCALLISTER: Not a cynic, a realist.
Show me the heart unfettered by foolish dreams,
and I'll show you a happy man.
and I'll show you a happy man.
KEATING: But only in their dreams can man be truly free.
'Twas always thus, and always thus will be.
MCALLISTER: Tennyson?
KEATING: No, Keating.
＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊
KEATING: Yes. We know that. All right. Now, I didn't bring them up here to ridicule them. I brought them up here to illustrate the point of conformity: the difficulty in maintaining your own beliefs in the face of others. Now, those of you -- I see the look in your eyes like, "I would've walked differently." Well, ask yourselves why you were clapping. Now, we all have a great need for acceptance. But you must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own, even though others may think them odd or unpopular, even though the herd may go, "That's baaaaad." Robert Frost said, "Two roads diverged in a wood and I, I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference." Now, I want you to find your own walk right now. Your own way of striding, pacing. Any direction. Anything you want. Whether it's proud, whether it's silly, anything. Gentlemen, the courtyard is yours. You don't have to perform. Just make it for yourself. Mr. Dalton? You be joining us?
CHARLIE: Exercising the right not to walk.
KEATING: Thank you, Mr. Dalton. You just illustrated the point. Swim against the stream.
