Lanning
turned
impatiently
to
Susan
Calvin
,
when
they
were
alone
.
"
Why
do
you
insist
-
"
And
with
real
feeling
,
she
responded
sharply
and
instantly
,
"
Which
do
you
want
--
the
truth
or
my
resignation
?
I
wo
n't
lie
for
you
.
U.
S.
Robots
can
take
care
of
itself
.
Do
n't
turn
coward
.
"
"
What
,
"
,
said
Lanning
,
"
if
he
opens
up
Byerley
,
and
wheels
and
gears
fall
out
what
then
?
"
"
He
wo
n't
open
Byerley
,
"
said
Calvin
,
disdainfully
.
"
Byerley
is
as
clever
as
Quinn
,
at
the
very
least
"
The
news
broke
upon
the
city
a
week
before
Byerley
was
to
have
been
nominated
.
But
"
broke
"
is
the
wrong
word
.
It
staggered
upon
the
city
,
shambled
,
crawled
.
Laughter
began
,
and
wit
was
free
.
And
as
the
far
off
hand
of
Quinn
tightened
its
pressure
in
easy
stages
,
the
laughter
grew
forced
,
an
element
of
hollow
uncertainty
entered
,
and
people
broke
off
to
wonder
.
The
convention
itself
had
the
sir
of
a
restive
stallion
.
There
had
been
no
contest
planned
.
Only
Byerley
could
possibly
have
been
nominated
a
week
earlier
.
There
was
no
substitute
even
now
.
They
had
to
nominate
him
,
but
there
was
complete
confusion
about
it
.
It
would
not
have
been
so
bad
if
the
average
individual
were
not
torn
between
the
enormity
of
the
charge
,
if
true
,
and
its
sensational
folly
,
if
false
.
The
day
after
Byerley
was
nominated
perfunctorily
,
hollowly
--
a
newspaper
finally
published
the
gist
of
a
long
interview
with
Dr.
Susan
Calvin
,
"
world
famous
expert
on
robopsychology
and
positronics
.
"
What
broke
loose
is
popularly
and
succinctly
described
as
hell
.
It
was
what
the
Fundamentalists
were
waiting
for
.
They
were
not
a
political
party
;
they
made
pretense
to
no
formal
religion
.
Essentially
they
were
those
who
had
not
adapted
themselves
to
what
had
once
been
called
the
Atomic
Age
,
in
the
days
when
atoms
were
a
novelty
.
Actually
,
they
were
the
Simple-Lifers
,
hungering
after
a
life
,
which
to
those
who
lived
it
had
probably
appeared
not
so
Simple
,
and
who
had
been
,
therefore
,
Simple-Lifers
themselves
.
