3. Excuse me, could I have everyone’s attention for a moment? Thank you. Just to be clear... in 14 days, the Mercury Seven will be here for training. And I have no doubt in my mind that they’re going to be asking us questions about our work. I think that’s pretty reasonable given we’re putting a human on top of a missile, shooting him into space, and it’s never been done before. Because it’s never been done, everything we do between now and then is gonna matter. It’s gonna matter to their wives, to their children. I believe it’s gonna matter to the whole damn country. So this Space Task Group will be as advertised. America’s greatest engineering and scientific minds are not gonna have a problem with having their work checked. Are they, Paul?
打扰一下，大家能停一下听我讲几句吗？谢谢！我只想提醒大家……十四天后水星计划七人就会到达训练。我想，毫无疑问，他们都会对我们的工作进行提问。我认为那很合理，因为我们要把人放在导弹上，射入太空，这是史无前例的。正因如此，我们现在和即将要做的一切都至关重要。尤其是对他们的妻子和孩子们，甚至是对整个国家都非常重要，所以这个太空任务组会被广泛宣传。你们是美国最精英的工程师和科学家，有人来检验一下你们的工作结果，应该没有问题吧！对吗，保罗？

8. Let me say first... Discovery is never just for the sake of discovery, gentlemen... but for the sake of human survival. And it will always come with a risk. Whoever gets there first will make the rules. That’s been true of every civilization.
我先声明“探索号”的初衷绝不是只是为了探索，各位，而是为了人类的生存，所以必然存在风险。先到达的人，优先制定规则，所有文明向来如此。

11. — This was my mother’s ring. She and my father were married for... for 52 years. Fig-ure it’s about as lucky a ring as you can get. The day I met you, I called my mother and I said, “Mom, I met the woman I want to marry.”
— What’d she say?
— She said, “She must be something, Jimmy. Really something.”
— Then what’d you say？
— I said, “No. She’s more than something. She’s everything.” Now, I planned on this being more romantic. I’ll make that up to you real soon.
—这是我妈妈的戒指……她和我爸爸结婚已经52年了，所以我觉得这是一枚幸运戒指。遇见你的那天，我打电话给我妈说：“妈妈我遇到了我想娶的女人。”
—她说什么？
—她说：“她肯定不一般，吉米。很不一般。”
—你说什么？
—我说：“不，她不仅仅是不一般，她是我的全部。那个，我本来要准备得更浪漫一些，我会补偿你的。”
