what is your dream? what ignites that spark. you can’t kinda want that, you got to want it with every part of your whole heart. will you struggle? yeah, yeah… you will struggle, no way around it. you will fall many times, but who's counting? just remember, there's no such thing as a smooth you want to make it to the top then, there are sharp ridges that have to be stepped over. there will be times you get stressed and things you get depressed over. but let me tell you something. steven spielberg was rejected from film school three times, three times but he kept going.

as you heard earlier, just over on that side of killian court, showing off their spectacular red jackets are more than 170 members of the class of 1969. apollo 11, as you heard, landed on the moon a few weeks after their mit graduation. a number of them went on to work in fields that were greatly…greatly accelerated by progress from apollo 11. one of them is irene greif, the first woman to earn a phd in computer science from mit.

but i believe our 1969 graduates might all agree on the most important wisdom we gained from apollo: it was the sudden intense understanding of our shared humanity and of the preciousness and fragility of our blue planet.

50 years later, those lessons feel more urgent than ever, and i believe that, as members of the great global family of mit, we must do everything in our power to help make a better world. so it is in that spirit that i deliver my charge to you.

i’m going to use a word that feels very comfortable at mit, although it has taken on a troubling new meaning elsewhere. but i know that our graduates will know what i mean.

after you depart for your new destinations, i want to ask you to hack the world until you make the world a little more like mit – more daring and more passionate, more rigorous, inventive and ambitious, more humble, more respectful, more generous, more kind.

and because the people of mit also like to fix things that are broken, as you strive to hack the world, please try to heal the world, too.

the truth is, success is a process—you can ask anybody who’s been successful. i just passed on the lane up here here, successful restauranteur danny meyer, who’s sitting here with his family—charles is graduating today. ask danny or anybody who’s successful, you go to any one of his restaurants—shake shack, love it!—union square cafe, gramercy tavern—you will be impressed by not only the food, but the radical hospital and service. service is not just about when you’re getting served.

when i started my talk show, i was just so happy to be on television. i was so happy to interview members of the ku klux klan. i thought i was interviewing them to show their vitriol to the world, and then i saw them using hand signals in the audience—and realized they were using me, and using my platform. then we did a show where someone was embarrassed, and i was responsible for the embarrassment. we had somehow talked a man who was cheating on his wife to come on the show with the woman he was cheating with and, on live television, he told his wife that his girlfriend was pregnant. that happened on mywatch.

shortly after i said: i’m not gonna do that again. how can i use this show to not just be a show, but allow it to be a service to the viewer? that question of "how do we serve the viewer?" transformed the show. and because we asked that question every single day from 1999 forward—with the intention of only doing what was in service to the people who were watching—that is why now, no matter where i go in the world, people say "i watched your show, it changed my life." people watched and were raised by that show. i did a good job of raising a lot of people, i must say. that happened because of an intention to be of service.

i would like to leave you now by playing one song. it’s called…it’s called the "song of the birds" – pablo casals’ favorite folk song from his beloved catalonia. a love song to nature and humanity, a song about freedom, about the freedom of birds when they take flight, soaring across borders.

and i would like to dedicate this piece to you, class of 20xx, with, once again, my heartiest uates at universities and colleges around the united states are wrapping up the academic year, preparing to face a new era of life. as part of that tradition, celebrities, politicians, athletes, ceos and artists are offering a range of life advice in commencement addresses.

here is the commencement speech by oprah winfrey at colorado college in 20xx.

in it, she tells college graduates in colorado small steps lead to big accomplishments.

winfrey quoted black activist angela davis, who said: "you have to act as if it were possible to radically change the world. and you have to do it all the time."

winfrey says change doesn't happen with big breakthroughs so much as day-to-day decisions.

the television personality and philanthropist once gave away a car to everybody in the audience on her show. winfrey didn't give the college graduates cars but copies of her book, "the path made clear."

she told them to expect failure in life but know that everything will be ok.

my visit to casals’ house was a reminder to me that we must all try to use our power well. because to not use our power is to abuse it.

to not speak, to remain silent in the face of uncertainty, in the face of the insecurity and massive changes that confront us today, that every one of us confronts every day of our lives – that is an abuse of power.

let us remember: every struggle for reform, innovation, or justice starts with a voice in the wilderness. a voice in the wilderness. vox clamantis in deserto. you all know that.

so, as you go forward today, i’d just like to leave you with this one thought: you have, and always will have, more power than you know. never abuse this power. never abuse this power. it is a gift. use it with great care and with great intention. listen to the voices crying in the wilderness; become one of those voices, a voice for justice and for hope.

remember, always, that you are a human being first. it’s a truth embedded in the very foundation of your liberal arts education. practice your humanity daily. practice that truth. let it power your decisions, let it inspire your thoughts, and let it shape your ideals. then you will soar. you will fly. and you will help others soar and fly.
