Marina Keegan上周刚参加了耶鲁大学的毕业典礼。她热爱写作、表演，在The New
Yorker找到一份editorial assistant的工作，即将搬去纽约。上周一耶鲁日报毕业专
刊上刊登了她的毕业感言：
But let us get one thing straight: the best years of our lives are not
behind us. They’re part of us and they are set for repetition as we grow up
and move to New York and away from New York and wish we did or didn’t live
in New York. I plan on having parties when I’m 30. I plan on having fun
when I’m old. ...
We’re so young. We’re so young. We’re twenty-two years old. We have so
much time. There’s this sentiment I sometimes sense, creeping in our
collective conscious as we lay alone after a party, or pack up our books
when we give in and go out – that it is somehow too late. That others are
somehow ahead. More accomplished, more specialized. More on the path to
somehow saving the world, somehow creating or inventing or improving. That
it’s too late now to BEGIN a beginning and we must settle for continuance,
for commencement. ...
What we have to remember is that we can still do anything. We can change our
minds. We can start over. Get a post-bac or try writing for the first time.
The notion that it’s too late to do anything is comical. It’s hilarious.
We’re graduating college. We’re so young. We can’t, we MUST not lose this
sense of possibility because in the end, it’s all we have.
