Jor-El’s Fortress of Solitude Speech

Come with me now, my son.
As we break through the bounds of your earthly confinement traveling through time and space.
Your powers will far exceed those of mortal men

It is forbidden for you to interfere with human history, rather, let your leadership stir others to.

In this next year, we shall examine the human heart.
It is more fragile than your own.

As we pass the flaming turmoil which is the edge of your own galaxy, we will enter the realm of the red
Krypton sun: the source of your strength and nourishment and the cause of our eventual destruction.

The planet Krypton, my son. Your home, as it were.

This year we shall examine the various concepts of immortality
and their basis in actual fact.
The total accumulation of all knowledge spanning the twenty-eight known galaxies is embedded in the crystals which I have sent along with you.
Study them well, my son. Learn from them.

By the time you return to the confines of your galaxy, twelve of your years will have passed.
For this reason among others, I have chosen Earth for you.

It is now time for you to rejoin your new world and to serve its collective humanity.

Live as one of them, Kal-El
Discover where you strength and your power are needed
Always hold in your heart the pride of your special heritage
They can be a great people, Kal-El, they wish to be
They only lack the light to show the way
For this reason above all, their capacity for good,
I have sent them you, my only son.
