"Shihuangdi...
:13:10
...the first emperor of China...
:13:12
...built a wall 3000 kilometers long...
:13:15
...to protect civilization
from the barbarians.
:13:17
The Great Wall of China.
:13:19
Then decided,
'History will begin with me.
:13:23
I will destroy the past.'
:13:26
And he ordered all the books
in his empire to be burnt."

Burnt.

:13:53

:14:13
Whatever the machine sees or hears
in this room, it can never forget.
:14:25
Proteus, this is Dr. Harris.
:14:27
- Can you see me?
- Yes...
:14:30
... I can see you, Dr. Harris.
:14:32
Your favorite emperor.
:14:35
What do you think of this
enigmatic man?
:14:40
Nothing.
:14:42
Nothing.
:14:44
- Have you no answer?
- Nothing...
:14:46
... is the answer.
:14:48
The emperor's business enterprises...
:14:51
... his wall building
and book burning...
:14:54
... are opposite terms in an equation.
:14:57
The net result is exactly...
