To be honest， I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who"ve been honored by this prize. Men and women， who"ve inspired me and inspired the entire world through their courageous pursuit of peace， but I also know that this prize reflects the kind of world that those men and women， and all Americans want to build a world that gives life to the promise of our founding documents.
And I know that throughout history， the Nobel Peace Prize has not just been used to honor specific achievement， it"s also been used as a means to give more momentum to a set of causes. And that is why I will accept the award as a call to action， a call for all nations to confront the common challenges of the 21st century.These challenges can"t be met by any one leader or any one nation.CAnd that"s why my administration has worked to establish a new era of engagement in which all nations must take the responsibility for the world we seek.We can not tolerate a world in which nuclear weapons spread in more nations， and in which the terror of a nuclear holocaust endangers more people.
That"s why we"ve begun to take concrete steps to pursue a world without nuclear weapons because all the nations have the right to pursue peaceful nuclear power， but all nations have the responsibility to demonstrate their peaceful intentions.

Good evening.I have come to Jerusalem today as a novelist， which is to say as a professional spinner of lies.
Today， however， I have no intention of lying. I will try to be as honest as I can.AThere are only a few days in the year when I do not engage in telling lies， and today happens to be one of them.
Please do allow me to deliver a message， one very personal message. It is something that I always keep in mind while I am writing fiction.I have never gone so far as to write it on a piece of paper and paste it to the wall：rather， it is carved into the wall of my mind， and it goes something like this：“Between a high， solid wall and an egg that breaks against it， I will always stand on the side of the egg.”
Yes， no matter how right the wall may be and how wrong the egg， I will stand with the egg. Someone else will have to decide what is right and what is wrong；perhaps time or history will do it.But if there were a novelist who， for whatever reason， wrote works standing with the wall， of what value would such works be？
What is the meaning of this metaphor？In some cases， it is all too ****** and clear. Bombers and tanks and rockets and white phosphorus shells are that high wall.The eggs are the unarmed civilians who are crushed and burned and shot by them.This is one meaning of the metaphor.
But this is not all. It carries a deeper meaning.Think of it this way.Each of us is， more or less， an egg.Each of us is a unique， irreplaceable soul enclosed in a fragile shell.BThis is true of me， and it is true of each of you.And each of us， to a greater or lesser degree， is confronting a high， solid wall.The wall has a name：it is“The System.”CThe System is supposed to protect us， but sometimes it takes on a life of its own， and then it begins to kill us and cause us to kill others—coldly， efficiently， systematically.

I have only one reason to write novels， and that is to bring the dignity of the individual soul to the surface and shine a light upon it.
AThe purpose of a story is to sound an alarm， to keep a light trained on the System in order to prevent it from tangling our souls in its web and demeaning them. I truly believe it is the novelist"s job to keep trying to clarify the uniqueness of each individual soul by writing stories—stories of life and death， stories of love， stories that make people cry and quake with fear and shake with laughter.This is why we go on， day after day， concocting fictions with utter seriousness.
