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 that we lacked the programming language to
describe your perfect world, but I believe that as a species, human beings
define their reality through misery and suffering. So the perfect world we
dreamed, but your primitive cerebrum kept trying to wake up from. Which is why
The Matrix was redesigned to this ... the peak of your civilization.
GLOSSARY:
none = not anyone(nadie); would accept the program:
was interested in the program
(aceptaba el programa); entire crops = full harvests

(nos faltaba); suffering: physical pain and/or
psychological affliction
(sufrimiento); cerebrum: anterior portion of the brain

The Matrix is everywhere. It is all
around us. Even now in this very room. You can see it when you look out your
window. Or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to
work. When you go to Church. When you pay your taxes. It is the world that
has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.

it is all around us = it surrounds us all(nos rodea);
very room = same room(mismísimo cuarto); turn on =/= turn off

Neo

I know you're out there. I can feel you
now. I know that you're afraid. You're afraid of us. You're afraid of
change. I don't know the future. I didn't come here to tell you how this is
going to end. I came here to tell you how it's going to begin. I'm going to
hang up this phone, and then I'm going to show these people what you don't want
them to see. I'm going to show them a world ... without you. A world without
rules and controls. Without borders or boundaries. A world ... where anything is
possible. (Music plays) Where we go from there, is a choice I leave
to you.
GLOSSARY:
afraid of = frightened about(temeroso de); to end =
to finish(terminar, finalizar); hang up:

Neo and Morpheus

NEO:
This ... this isn't The Matrix?
MORPHEUS:
No. It's another training program designed to teach you one thing.
If you are not one of us, you are one of them.
NEO:
What are they?
MORPHEUS:
Sentient programs. They can move in and out of any software still
hardwired to their system. That means that anyone we haven't
unplugged is potentially an agent.
GLOSSARY:
training program: educating program (programa de
entrenamiento); designed = developed(diseñado); sentient programs:
consciously perceiving programs(programas conscientes); hardwired: connected(conectados).

Neo

MORPHEUS:
We have survived by hiding from them
... by running from them. But they are the gatekeepers. They are guarding all
the doors, they are holding all the keys, which means that sooner or later,
someone is going to have to fight them.
NEO:
Someone?
MORPHEUS:
I won't lie to you, Neo. Every single man or woman who has stood
their ground, everyone who has fought an agent has died. But where
they have failed, you will succeed.
NEO:
Why?
MORPHEUS:
I've seen an agent punch through a concrete wall. Men have
emptied entire clips and hit nothing but air. Yet their strength and
their speed are still based in a world that is build on rules,
because of that, they will never be as strong or as fast as you can
be.
