Show Me a Dinosaur - Drawing the Line текст песни

Dr. Ian Malcolm: If I may…
Um, I’ll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you’re using here,
it didn’t require any discipline to attain it.
You read what others had done and you took the next step.
You didn’t earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don’t take any
responsibility for it.
You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you
could, and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, and packaged it,
and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now (punch on the table)
Dr.Ian Malcolm: you’re selling it, you wanna sell it.
Well…
John Hammond: I don’t think you’re giving us our due credit.
Our scientists have done things which nobody’s ever done before…
Dr.Ian Malcolm: Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with
whether or not they could that they didn’t stop to think if they should.
John Hammond: Condors.
Condors are on the verge of extinction…
Dr.Ian Malcolm: (shaking head) No…
John Hammond: If I was to create a flock of condors on this island,
you wouldn’t have anything to say.
Dr.Ian Malcolm: No, hold on.
This isn’t some species that was obliterated by deforestation, or the building
of a dam.
Dinosaurs had their shot, and nature selected them for extinction.
John Hammond: I simply don’t understand this Luddite attitude, especially from
a scientist.
I mean, how can we stand in the light of discovery, and not act?
Dr.Ian Malcolm: What’s so great about discovery?
It’s a violent, penetrative act that scars what it explores.
What you call discovery, I call the rape of the natural world.
