　　下面是主持人斯考特-佩里(Scott Pelley)采访马斯克的部分内容：

　　斯考特-佩里：您怎么描述你的汽车公司，您认为这个公司会成功吗？

　　马斯克：我不认为特斯拉将成功。我认为我们很可能失败。但是我认为我们至少可以解改变一个错误观念：人们认为电子车会很丑，很慢，像高尔夫球一样无聊。

　　斯考特-佩里：您说你不认为这个公司会成功，那么为什么还要去试呢？

　　马斯克：如果是足够重要的东西，你应该试一试。即使你可能的结果是失败。

　　Elon Musk was on 60 Minutes tonight, talking about his two big companies: Tesla and SpaceX.

　　In the segment, Musk says he expected Tesla to fail:

　　Scott Pelley: How did you figure you were going to start a car company and be successful at it? 

　　Elon Musk: Well, I didn't really think Tesla would be successful. I thought we would most likely fail. But I thought that we at least could address the false perception that people have that an electric car had to be ugly and slow and boring like a golf cart. 

　　Scott Pelley: But you say you didn't expect the company to be successful? Then why try? 

　　Elon Musk: If something's important enough you should try. Even if you -- the probable outcome is failure.
