🇺🇸 English

Jon Stewart has said that he never truly resolved to anchor the focus of his philanthropy on first responders and their families.

乔恩·斯图尔特表示他从未真正决意将慈善事业的焦点锚定于急救人员及其家属之上

It all simply came about quite naturally.

这一切不过是水到渠成

The award-winning host of The Daily Show candidly acknowledged that he yearns to perceive his own worth, and is steadfastly committed to championing those who dedicate their life's work to assisting others.

这位荣获殊荣的《每日秀》主持人坦言渴望感知到自身的价值所在,并矢志支持那些将毕生心血倾注于扶助他人之人

"These people are not the X-Men," Stewart said.

这些人并非X战警,”斯图尔特说道

"Nor are they superheroes.

他们亦非超级英雄

They are simply ordinary peoplemen and womenwho made a choice.

他们不过是作出了抉择的芸芸众生——男男女女罢了。

That choice is: 'I will stand by others in their darkest hour.

那抉择便是:‘我愿在他人最为困顿之际相伴左右

Whatever storms may come, so be it.

无论风云如何变幻皆随它去吧

Yet this is what I am resolved to do.'"

此乃矢志践行之事。’”

His unwavering support for the emergency responders to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks drove him, in 2019, to lobby indignantly and testify before Congress in order to ensure that the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund would not be depleted.

他对2001年9月11日恐怖袭击应急救援人员的坚定支持驱使他于2019年愤而展开游说并在国会作证以确保9·11受害者赔偿基金不致枯竭

He pressed to close a loophole in the PACT Acta loophole that left American service members exposed to radiation during the war in Afghanistan bereft of medical coverage.

他力促弥合《PACT法案》中的一处漏洞——该漏洞致使在阿富汗战争期间暴露于辐射之下的美国军人陷于医疗保障的缺失

Such support continues: on Friday he announced that he would once again host the First Responders Children's Foundation's "Roll Call of Heroes" ceremony, which is scheduled to take place on October 28 in New York's Times Square in observance of National First Responders Day.

此种支持仍在延续他于周五宣布将再度主持第一响应者儿童基金会的“英雄点名”仪式该仪式定于10月28日在纽约时代广场举行以纪念全国第一响应者日

"You get to meet the people who are being honored face to face, to say 'well done' to them, and to get to know the young people who are truly committed to community affairs," he said.

你得以与那些荣膺表彰之人面对面,向他们道一声‘干得好’,并结识那些真正投身社区事务的年轻人,”他说道

"It is always a wonderful feeling to be able to touch the bedrock that holds all of this together."

能够触摸到维系这一切的基石总是令人倍感美好。”

Jillian Crane, President and CEO of the First Responders Children's Foundation, declared that the nonprofit was delighted that Stewart would be returning once again to host this year's event.

第一响应者儿童基金会总裁兼首席执行官吉莉安·克兰宣称,该非营利组织欣悉斯图尔特将再度归来主持本年度活动。

"His tireless advocacy on behalf of first respondersparticularly those valiantly battling 9/11-related illnessesmakes him an exemplary host for this year's event," she remarked.

“他为急救人员——尤其是那些与9·11相关疾病顽强抗争的群体——所倾注的倡导之力使他成为本年度这一活动的绝佳主持人,”她表示

"As the only national nonprofit organization dedicated to serving the children of first responders, we firmly believe that according them the recognition they so richly deservethese heroes who safeguard our communities day in and day outconstitutes a most resounding expression of our gratitude."

作为唯一一家矢志服务于急救人员子女的全国性非营利组织我们深信让他们的父母——那些日复一日守护我们社区的英雄——赢得应有的瞩目不失为一种掷地有声的致谢方式。”

This interview has been edited and condensed for the sake of clarity.

本次访谈内容业经编辑与删节,旨在确保表述明晰。

If we cannot find it in ourselves to care for those who once cared for us, it is tantamount to declaring that the scaffolding you erected in building your society is profoundly and fundamentally flawed.

倘若我们无从眷顾那些曾眷顾我们的人便无异于昭示你在构筑社会时所架设的支架,存在着深刻的根本性缺陷

Plainly, in the aftermath of 9/11, one comes to see just how fragile this experiment is without those who are willing to rush toward the places that are collapsing.

显然历经9·11之后你会洞见倘若没有那些甘愿奔赴崩塌之处的人这一实验是何等脆弱

I think this is interwoven with anger at a political system that was only too eager to extol them when they were needed, and only too eager to cast them aside the moment they ceased to be in the spotlight.

我认为这与对政治制度的愤怒交织在一起——该制度在他们被需要时极乐于褒扬他们而在他们不再处于焦点时又极乐于弃之如敝屣

I think this is what generates the momentum.

我认为催生了动力

This is precisely what they did upon arriving at the scene.

这恰如他们抵达现场时的所作所为。

You are, in essence, triaging between what is urgent and what can be deferred.

实质上是在燃眉之急尚可延缓之事进行优先级甄别

And in my view, children who have lost both parents to such tragedies ought to fall squarely within your foremost priorities.

而在我看来因这类悲剧而痛失双亲的孩子理应归入你首要优先处置的范畴

Frankly, to immerse yourself in itthough you may hear of still more griefis, I believe, in a sense nothing less than a salve for that very pain.

坦率而言投身其中纵然你或许会耳闻更多悲恸但我认为从某种意义上来讲这实则不失为缓解那份痛楚的一剂膏药

Action is, to some degree, the very antidote to that sense of helplessness and anguish.

行动在某种程度上,正是对那种无力感与焦灼感的解药

In sum, there exists a quiet activism of living joyfully.

概言之存在一种愉悦生活静谧行动主义

What I mean is that you go about your day, striving to be the finest neighbour, citizen, and individual you can possibly be.

我的意思是你经营好自己的一日竭力成为你所能成为的最卓越的邻居公民与个体

The causes I commit myself to have, by and large, crystallised organically.

我所投身的事业大抵水到渠成地形成的。

I want to ensure that when I involve myself in something, I do so wholeheartedlythis is not charity tourism.

我期望确保当我介入某事时我会倾尽全力——这并非慈善旅游

I want it to be something into which I can pour my entire being, and where what I have to offer is precisely what they can put to good use.

我希望它是我能够全情投入之事我所能贡献的恰是他们所能受用之物
