造物主與 Neo 對白原文
Architect: Hello Neo
Neo: Who are you?
Architect: I am the Architect. I created the Matrix. I have been waiting for
you. You have many questions and although the process has altered your
consciousness you remain irrevocably human, ergo some of my answers you will
understand and some of them you will not. Concordantly, while your first
question maybe the most pertinent you may or may not realize it is also the
most irrelevant.
Neo: Why am I here?
Architect: Your life is the sum of a remainder of an unbalanced equation
inherent in the programming of the matrix. You are the eventuality of an
anomaly which despite my sincerest efforts I have been unable to eliminate from
what is otherwise a harmony of mathematical precision. While it remains a
burden deciduously avoided it is not unexpected and thus not beyond a measure
of control. Which has led you inexcerably here.
Neo: You haven急 answered my question.

Neo: You haven急 answered my question.
Architect: Quite right. Interesting, that was quicker then the others.
Neo: Others? (What others? How many? Answer me)
Architect: The Matrix is older then you know. I prefer counting from the
emergence of one integral anomaly to the emergence of the next. In which case
this is the sixth version.
Neo: Then there are only two possible explanations, either no one told me, or
no one knows.
Architect: Precisely, as you are undoubtedly gathering the anomaly is systemic.
Creating fluctuations in even the most simplistic equations.
Neo: Choice, the problem is choice.
Architect: The first matrix I designed was quite naturally perfect; it was a
work of art, flawless, sublime. A triumph equaled only by its monumental
failure. The inevitability of its doom is apparent to me now as a consequence
of the imperfection inherent in every human being. Thus, I redesigned it, Based
on your history to more accurately reflect the varying grotesqueries of your
nature. However I was again frustrated my failure. I have since come to
understand that the answer eluded me because it required a lesser mind a mind
less bound by the parameters of perfection. Thus the answer was stumbled upon
by another, and intuitive program, initially created to investigate certain
aspects of the human psyche. If I am the father of the matrix, she would
undoubtedly be its mother.
Neo: The Oracle
Architect: Please, as I was saying she stumbled upon a solution whereby nearly
99 percent of all test subjects accepted the program as long as they were given
a choice, even if they were only aware of the choice at an unconscious level.
While this answered function it was obviously fundamentally flawed thus
creating the otherwise contradictory systemic anomaly. That if left unchecked
might threaten the system itself, ergo those that refuse the program while the
minority if unchecked would cause a escalating probability of disaster.
Neo: This is about Zion
Architect: You are here because Zion is about to be destroyed. Its every living
inhabitant terminated, its entire existence eradicated.
Neo: Bull****
Architect: Denial is the most predictable of all human responses. But, rest
assured, this will be the sixth time we have destroyed it. And we have become
exceedingly efficient at it. The function of the One is now to return to the
source allowing a temporary dissemination of the code you carry reinserting the
prime program after which you will be required to select from the matrix 23
individuals, 16 female 7 male, to rebuild Zion. Failure to comply with this
process will result in a cataclysmic system crash killing everyone connected
to the matrix. Which, coupled with the extermination of Zion will ultimately
result in the extinction of the entire human race.
Neo: You won急 let it happen, you can急. You need human beings to survive.
Architect: There are levels of survival we are prepared to accept. However
the relevant issue is whether you are ready to accept the responsibility for
the death of every human being in this world. It is interesting reading your
reactions. Your 5 predecessors were by design based on a similar predication
a contingent affirmation that was meant to create a profound attachment to
the rest of your species facilitating the function of the One. While the
others experienced this in a very general way your experience is far more
specific, Vis a vie love.
Neo: Trinity
Architect: Apropo, she entered the matrix to save your life at the cost of
her own.
Neo: No
Architect: Which brings us at last to the moment of truth, wherein the
fundamental flaw is ultimately expressed and the anomaly revealed as both
beginning and end. There are two doors, the door to your right leads to the
source and the salvation of Zion, the door to your left leads back to the
matrix to her and to the end of your species. As you adequately put, the
problem is choice. But we already know we you are going to do don急 we?
Already I can see the chain reaction the chemical precursors that signal the
onset of an emotion designed specifically to overwhelm logic and reason. An
emotion that is already blinding you from the simple and obvious truth, she
is going to die and there is nothing you can do to stop it. Hope, it is the
quintessential human delusion simultaneously the source of your greatest
strength and your greatest weakness.
Neo: If I were you, I would hope that we don急 meet again.
Architect: We won't

Though no one can bring back the hours
Of splendor in the grass
Of glory in the flowers
We will grieve not
Rather find strength in
What remains behind.
