[原文] [Egon O'Leary]: Thank you, Egon. There are few names that speak to the enduring excellence of a sport quite like the name Tom Brady. A record-setting quarterback, a fierce competitor, and a leader who lifted every team that he touched, Tom Brady in many ways defines what sports is all about. Tom Brady built a career defined by sustained excellence, preparation, and leadership at the highest levels of professional sports. Over more than two decades in the NFL, he became the most decorated player in league history while setting a standard for performance, discipline, and longevity.

[译文] [Egon O'Leary]: 谢谢你，埃贡。很少有名字能像汤姆·布雷迪这样，诠释一项运动持久的卓越。他是一位打破纪录的四分卫，一位激烈的竞争者，也是一位能提升他所触及的每一支球队的领导者。在许多方面，汤姆·布雷迪定义了体育的本质。他在职业体育的最高水平上，建立了一个以持续卓越、充分准备和领导力为标志的职业生涯。在NFL超过二十年的生涯中，他成为了联盟历史上荣誉最多的球员，同时为表现、纪律和 longevity（长寿/持久性）树立了标准。

[原文] [Egon O'Leary]: True greatness, as our Jesuit tradition teaches, lies in striving to be the best version of oneself while uplifting those around you. Tom Brady led his teams to achievements rarely matched in global sports, winning seven Super Bowls, appearing in 10, and securing 18 division titles, while consistently raising the level of play of those around him. He has carried those same principles into the business world. As both an athlete and an entrepreneur, he has translated success on the field into influence far beyond it. Building ventures in health, media, and performance, and demonstrating how elite leadership can drive innovation and impact across industries.

[译文] [Egon O'Leary]: 正如我们的耶稣会传统所教导的，真正的伟大在于努力成为最好的自己，同时提升周围的人。汤姆·布雷迪带领他的球队取得了全球体育界罕见的成就：赢得七次超级碗，十次进入决赛，并夺得18次分区冠军，同时不断提升周围队友的比赛水平。他将同样的原则带入了商业世界。作为一名运动员和企业家，他将赛场上的成功转化为远超赛场的影响力。他在健康、媒体和表现领域建立企业，展示了精英领导力如何推动跨行业的创新与影响。

[原文] [Egon O'Leary]: But when people think about his legacy, it's ultimately defined by his leadership. His ability to bring out the best in those around him, to inspire confidence under pressure, and to unite his teammates around a common goal with focus, determination, and purpose. His career is a reminder that winning is measured not just by victories, but by the values we uphold, the people we lift up, and the impact we leave behind. In recognition of his achievements in sports, his success in business and public life, and his example of principled leadership, Georgetown University bestows upon Tom Brady the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa.

[译文] [Egon O'Leary]: 但当人们思考他的遗产时，最终是由他的领导力所定义的。他能够激发周围人的潜能，在压力下鼓舞信心，并以专注、决心和目标将队友团结在共同的目标周围。他的职业生涯提醒我们，胜利不仅仅由胜利次数衡量，更由我们坚守的价值观、我们提升的人以及我们留下的影响来衡量。鉴于他在体育领域的成就、在商业和公共生活中的成功，以及他原则性领导力的典范，乔治城大学授予汤姆·布雷迪人文科学荣誉博士学位。
