So it is not surprising that some would have us stay where we are a little longer to rest, to wait.(所以并不意外,有时我们会在裹足不前,焦急等待。)
But this city of Houston, this state of Texas, this country of the United States was not built by those who waited and rested and wished to look behind them.(但休斯敦市,德克萨斯州与美利坚合众国不是由那些止步不前,安于现状,甘愿落后的人建立的。)
This country was conquered by those who moved forward--and so will space.(这个国家是由那些不断前进的人所征服的,太空也是如此。)
