Mr. Watson — Come here — I want to see you.
First intelligible words spoken over the telephone (10 March 1876), as recorded in Bell's Journal entry (10 March 1876) http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=magbell&fileName=253/25300201/bellpage.db&recNum=21. These are often misquoted as "Mr. Watson, come here, I want you." Watson later recounted that Bell had spilled battery acid and had called for him over the phone with these words, but this may have been in a separate incident.
„Watson. Kommen Sie sofort, wenn es Ihnen passt. Wenn es unpassend ist, kommen Sie trotzdem.“
„Ich möchte nicht in den Himmel kommen. Keiner meiner Freunde ist da.“
„Du mochtest im Sumpfe nicht schwimmen. Komm nun, komm, und lass uns baden in offener See!“

„Frag mich nicht, woher ich komme, //Sag, du freust dich, mich zu sehen.“
