1. If there's one thing that the world needs right now, it's scientists. We cannot stop innovating. That's how you solve a problem.

如果当前这个世界还有什么需要的话,那就是科学家。我们不能停止创新。只有这样才能解决问题。

(rúɡuǒ dānɡqián zhèɡè shìjiè háiyǒu shénme xūyào de huà, nà jiùshì kēxuéjiā. wǒmén bùnénɡ tínɡzhǐ chuànɡxīn. zhīyǒu zhèyànɡ cáinénɡ jiějué wèntí.)

2. You know what it takes to be the best. You got to say to yourself, "I will do what nobody else is willing to do."

你知道要怎么做才能成为最好的。你得告诉你自己："我会去做那些别人都不愿意做的事情。"

(nǐ zhīdào yào zěnme zuò cái nénɡ chénɡwéi zuìhǎo de.nǐ  děi ɡàosù nǐ zìjǐ: "wǒ huì qù zuò nàxiē biérén dōu bù yuànyì zuò de shìqínɡ.")

3. I'm not a hero. I was trying to save my daughter. If I got to save the world to save her, then I'm damn sure gonna do it.

我不是英雄。我只是想救自己的女儿。如果只有拯救全世界才能救得了她,那我一定会这么做的。

(wǒ bùshì yīnɡxiónɡ. wǒ zhǐshì xiǎnɡ jiù zìjǐ de nǚér. rúɡuǒ zhǐyǒu zhěnɡjiù quán shìjiè cái nénɡ jiù de liǎo tā, nà wǒ yīdìnɡ huì zhèmezuò de.)

4. I don't know what's gonna happen to me if I go, but you and I both know what will happen to all of us if I stay.

我不清楚如果我离开了会发生什么,但你我都知道要是我留下会发生什么。

(wǒ bù qīnɡchǔ rúɡuǒ wǒ líkāi le huì fāshēnɡ shénme, dàn nǐwǒ dōu zhīdào yàoshì wǒ liúxià huì fāshēnɡ shénme.)
