Matrix

Civilization:

"Have you ever stood and stared at

it, Morpheus?  Marveled at its

beauty.  Its genius.  Billions of

people just living out their 

lives... oblivious.

Did you know that the first Matrix

was designed to be a perfect human

world?  Where none suffered, where

everyone would be happy.  It was a

disaster.  No one would accept the

program.  Entire crops were lost.

Some believed we lacked the

programming language to describe

your perfect world.  But I believe

that, as a species, human beings

define their reality through

suffering and misery.

The perfect world was a dream that
your primitive cerebrum kept
trying to wake up from.  Which is
why the Matrix was re-designed to
this:  the peak of your
civilization.

I say 'your civilization' because
as soon as we start thinking for
you, it really becomes our
civilization, which is, of course,
what this is all about.

Evolution, Morpheus.  Evolution.

Like the dinosaur.  Look out that
window.  You had your time.

The future is our world, Morpheus.
The future is our time."

Virus:



"I'd like to share a revelation
that I've had during my time here.
It came to me when I tried to
classify your species.  I've
realized that you are not actually
mammals.

Every mammal on this planet
instinctively develops a natural
equilibrium with the surrounding
environment.  But you humans do
not.  You move to an area and you
multiply and multiply until every
natural resource is consumed and
the only way you can survive is to
spread to another area.

There is another organism on this
planet that follows the same
pattern.  Do you know what it is?
A virus.

Human beings are a disease, a
cancer of this planet.  You are a
plague.  And we are... the cure."
