Ukrainian Secretary of National Security and Defense, Raisa Bogatyreva, plagiarized Steve Jobs' speech to Stanford in 2005 for her own speech to graduates, according to a TNW report.
The plaigarism was revealed by the Ukranian Truth and some comparative quotes have been published by iSmashPhone. TNW verified these translations with their own source.
Raisa Bogatyreva: Knowledge, that you've got today in these walls, your character, fate, life, or at least karma, will help you to find the right answer.
Steve Jobs: You'll have to stand on somethething. On your character, fate, life, karma, anything.
Bogatyreva: up to 33 years, I was not paying attention to the saying: If you live each day like the last, ever to do it.
Jobs: When I was 17, I came across a quote if you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right.
Bogatyreva: I am honored to be here with you today, the day when the graduates receive diplomas. In one of the best higher educational institutions of our country … I want to share with you today the findings of his own life and his own political experience. There are three conclusions. Nothing is absolutely tremendous. There are three conclusions.
Jobs: I am honored to be with you today at the presentation of diplomas of one of the best universities in the world … I tell you three stories from my life. Just three stories. Nothing grand. Just three stories.
Bogatyreva: Death approached me very closely. Closer than it is now, at my age, having lived through that moment, I can tell you – nobody wants to die.
Jobs: Death then came to me the closest. And, hopefully, the closest thing to the next few decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this with more certainty than when death was a useful but purely abstract concept that no one wants to die.
For those of you who speak the language, you can find a video of the speech below...
