61474 | Do-- Is it possible they''ll keep us here forever? |
61474 | Is... is this good sense to hold out? |
61474 | Morrison? 61474 Well?" |
61474 | What have you there? |
61474 | Which one of you? |
61474 | You''re changing the plan, sir? |
61474 | And the duty of a good general--? |
61474 | De Wolf? |
61474 | How could he harden in an hour or a day the resolution to loyalty? |
61474 | Now, what have you to say?" |
61474 | Now, why do n''t you tell me all about it here and now and save us this uncomfortable and regrettable necessity?" |
61474 | Then you are Flight Officer Morrison?" |
61474 | Why court the possibility of broken bodies, broken minds, warped and twisted spirits? |
60442 | And a promise on your part that you will sign me on for the next trip-- or turn in your Captain''s papers? |
60442 | Birds of a feather, huh? |
60442 | How much would you take? |
60442 | How much, to lay off of-- David Markham-- leave me alone...? |
60442 | Scotch? |
60442 | And what would be your defense? |
60442 | Could I come right out and ask Markham about that bruise? |
60442 | He scratched his chin slowly, then said,"Well-- how about your salary for this trip and five thousand dollars?" |
60442 | He''s lying, and he knows you know he is lying, but can you torture it out of him or punish him for not telling you? |
60442 | I heard myself blurt,"Why? |
60442 | I heard myself say,"Such an agreement ca n''t be put into writing, of course, but-- shall we drink on it?" |
60442 | Not for six months yet? |
60442 | Perhaps the stress of your new duties...?" |
60442 | See how I have stolen your weapons?" |
60442 | Suppose I did, and he told me Resnick had done it, and I used that as an excuse to toss Resnick in the brig? |
60442 | That the Captain had tortured you? |
60442 | To strike me would be treason, punishable by life imprisonment, would n''t it? |
60442 | Today? |
60442 | Tomorrow? |
60442 | WHY?" |
60442 | What can a man do? |
60442 | What satisfaction could you possibly get from ruining me?" |
60442 | When? |
60442 | Who are your witnesses? |
60442 | Who would believe that? |
60442 | Who''s going to believe that the Captain did such a thing? |
60442 | Why not balance him out by making my one choice on the crew a man who was the exact opposite, an abject coward? |
60442 | Why? |
60442 | You wonder that I am not ashamed to confess publicly to you that I was a coward? |
60442 | _ When_ would it happen? |
61950 | A spacer? |
61950 | And suppose,Janus said,"none of us chooses to be the One?" |
61950 | And this Shining Stone? |
61950 | And who might he be? |
61950 | But I trust you will take the_ Princess_ in tow? 61950 But did n''t you say the Stone meant little to such as you?" |
61950 | But why? |
61950 | But--"Have n''t you had enough action this trip? |
61950 | Ca n''t we go down and blast them off the map? |
61950 | Can you make it out, Ketrik? 61950 Dhovril,"Devries repeated,"that is your planet?" |
61950 | Do you know what I think? |
61950 | Do you suppose they''re going to run some kind of voltage through that thing? |
61950 | Have you got the_ Wasp_? |
61950 | How do you know my name? |
61950 | How long does that go on? |
61950 | I wonder where they''re taking us? |
61950 | My pistol, Commander? 61950 Not me, Commander? |
61950 | Point is, is she a derelict? 61950 See anything yet?" |
61950 | See that ragged gap in the hull near the stern? |
61950 | Something... a meteor? 61950 The Brain, eh?" |
61950 | The One? |
61950 | The Shining Stone? 61950 Then why are you holding up?" |
61950 | These Proktols did that? 61950 Three? |
61950 | What about that fleet of space- ships we saw down there? |
61950 | What are they going to do? |
61950 | What do you think? 61950 What does he mean, the One?" |
61950 | What good is it to watch? 61950 What the devil was it, Janus? |
61950 | Why did n''t you take the chance? 61950 Why did you do that?" |
61950 | Would you mind telling us, now, where you''re taking us and why? |
61950 | Yes, was n''t it? |
61950 | You mean,said Devries,"they have n''t any?" |
61950 | You were saying? |
61950 | Am I right?" |
61950 | And did n''t you wonder why?" |
61950 | And if he''s in authority here, why do n''t you take us to him?" |
61950 | Another thing: did you notice their flame- pistols? |
61950 | But who will be next? |
61950 | But would it reach as far as V''Naric''s key had reached? |
61950 | Did you notice those antennae they have? |
61950 | Do you know when, and why? |
61950 | Had the creature read Devries''s mind? |
61950 | How did you escape? |
61950 | I wonder what you can mean?" |
61950 | I wonder what? |
61950 | I wonder where you''d escape to?" |
61950 | If they keep on with those sacrifices, feeding it that mental force, who knows how far it''ll go? |
61950 | Instead he said:"And right now, what scientific problem is the Brain working on?" |
61950 | Is that Brain going to direct that fleet toward the inner planets by remote control?" |
61950 | Janus flashed them a look that said,"See?" |
61950 | Must be a pretty important fetish on their world, eh?" |
61950 | Must be some object dead ahead to cause this disturbance, but why does n''t our Deflector beam shunt it from us or pivot us around it?" |
61950 | Or is it merely curiosity? |
61950 | Then he answered indirectly:"Have you Earthmen ever heard of the sacred temple of Dhovril, or of the Shining Stone?" |
61950 | These-- these things that have got us now?" |
61950 | What did you think of our duel?" |
61950 | What happened?" |
61950 | Why?" |
