但愿我能够站在你们面前对你们说，我这一代人对人与自然的关系有所建树并赋予其价值；我们曾见过我们居住的地球的壮丽、优美以及威力，并从她那里学到智慧和谦卑。唉，我无颜这么说，因为正是我们这一代人生产出一种致命的破坏性物质。

然而时间像溪水向前流淌，人类也随其奔向未来。你们这一代人必须与环境和解；你们这一代必须面对这种现实，而不是躲在无知的避风港里，无视现实。你们的责任重大，

然而这又是一个光荣的责任。在你们将踏入的那个世界里，人们将面临前所未有的挑战，这将考验人类的成熟程度，及其对自身而非大自然的认知程度。（节选自Rachel Carson于1962年6月12日在加利福利亚州克莱尔蒙特市斯科利普斯学院毕业典礼上的讲话）
