And I was struck recently

最近我很喜欢
when I came across a passage of Johannes Kepler.

无意中看到的一段约翰内斯·开普勒的文章
Now don't get me wrong here.

别误会
I don't sit around reading the astrophysicist Johannes Kepler.

我不会闲读天体物理学家约翰内斯·开普勒的文章
I was reading something else and this happened to crop up;

我当时在读其他的书
this quote from Kepler came up in it.

开普勒这段话碰巧作为一个引用出现
How many of you in your physics courses--

有人在物理课上
do they mention Kepler at all?

听说过开普勒吗
So you know--you guys know Kepler a lot better than I do.

你看你们对他知道的比我多
Let's not put on airs here.

不说其他的了
