Martha: (mourning) This whole month's been nothing but bad luck.

Jonathan: (comforting her) Martha, if this is all about Bessie's poor deformed calf, it's not a bad omen or a sign of anything. Except maybe...good luck.

Martha: (still mourning) That's exactly what it's not about, Jonathan. I lost our baby. Our last chance at...(sees a falling spaceship) at a...family.

(The two arrive at the spaceship)

Martha: It was...like crying.

Jonathan: What on Earth was that thing? What's inside?

Martha: (surprised to see a infant Kal-El) Oh, god. Jonathan, it's a baby.

Jonathan: (suprised) Well, don't that beat all....

Martha: Those eyes of his...It's like they've seen worlds upon worlds. Wonders beyond all reckoning...It's like they can see right through me. Awww, he's so cute!

Jonathan: Wha....what are we going to name him?

Martha: How about we call him....Clark.

Jonathan: Clark....Clark Joseph Kent. I love it.

You only wanted to help people, but they're starting to fear you. Meaning to say, you're different. You're far from those of mortal men. It's not like martians or anything. It's an impossible to choose if you can secretly save or not. But the truth is...you're not one of us. Come here, there's something I can show you.

We found you in this. We were sure the government was gonna show up on our doorstep. No one ever came. It's another way of saying it's not from this world, Clark, and neither are you… You're the answer, son. You're the answer to "Are we alone in the universe?" People are afraid of what they don't understand. You're not just anyone, Clark, and I have to believe that you're–that you're sent here for a reason. All these changes you're going through, one day–one day, you're goin'a think of them as a blessing, and when that day comes, you're goin'a have to make a choice: a choice of whether to stand proud in front of the human race or not. You'll just have to decide what kind of man you'll want to grow up to be, Clark, because whoever that man is, good character or bad, he's–he's gonna change the world.
