You're familiar with the phrase "Man's reach exceeds his grasp"? It's a lie. Man's grasp exceeds his nerve. The only limits on scientific progress are those imposed by society. The first time I changed the world, I was hailed as a visionary. The second time I was asked politely to retire. The world only tolerates one change at a time. And so here I am. Enjoying my "retirement". Nothing is impossible, Mr. Angier, what you want is simply expensive.
你听过这句俗话吗？ “心有余而力不足”。那不是真话。人类只是胆量不够。社会一次只能接受一种改变。我第一次试着改变世界，被称为先知；第二次他们却请我退休。所以我在这里享受退休时光。没有不可能的事，只是很贵不贵的问题。
