Писатель: Варли, Джон

Глава в томе: Холодный пляж (engl)

"Not likely," I said. "Exactly. My reading of history tells me it's always been like this. An alarming but vague problem arises. No one can say with certainty what the final outcome will be, but they're fairly sure nothing bad is going to happen soon. 'Soon' is the key word here. The eventual decision is to keep one's fingers crossed and hope it doesn't happen during your term in office. What befalls your successor is not your problem. So for a few years a few people in the know spend a few sleepless nights. But then nothing happens, as you always secretly believed nothing would, and soon the problem is forgotten. That's what happened here."

Wasn't he looking for love? Didn't he want the mad doctor to make someone for him to love?" "I think so. Or was that Godzilla?" He laughed, feebly, and coughed blood. "I had powers like a god," he said. "And I searched for weakness. Maybe they should put that on my headstone." "I like what you said before. 'He did his best.'"
