He
turned
back
to
Harlan
,
saying
abstractedly
,
"
They
’
ll
do
it
because
I
’
m
old
and
senior
member
of
the
Council
and
because
they
think
I
’
m
cranky
and
queer
.
They
give
in
to
me
because
I
’
m
cranky
and
queer
.
"
For
a
moment
he
fell
into
a
ruminative
silence
.
Then
he
said
,
"
Do
you
think
I
’
m
queer
?
"
and
his
face
turned
swiftly
up
to
Harlan
’
s
like
that
of
a
seamed
monkey
.
Harlan
thought
:
Great
Time
,
the
man
’
s
mad
.
The
shock
has
driven
him
mad
.
He
took
a
step
backward
,
automatically
aghast
at
being
trapped
with
a
madman
.
Then
he
steadied
.
The
man
,
be
he
ever
so
mad
,
was
feeble
,
and
even
madness
would
end
soon
.
Soon
?
Why
not
at
once
?
What
delayed
the
end
of
Eternity
?
Twissell
said
(
he
had
no
cigarette
in
his
fingers
;
his
hand
made
no
move
to
take
one
)
in
a
quiet
insinuating
voice
,
"
You
haven
’
t
answered
me
.
Do
you
think
I
’
m
queer
?
I
suppose
you
do
.
Too
queer
to
talk
to
.
If
you
had
thought
of
me
as
a
friend
instead
of
as
a
crotchety
old
man
,
whimsical
and
unpredictable
,
you
would
have
spoken
openly
to
me
of
your
doubts
.
You
would
have
taken
no
such
action
as
you
did
.
"
Harlan
frowned
.
The
man
thought
Harlan
was
mad
.
That
was
it
!
He
said
angrily
,
"
My
action
was
the
right
one
.
I
’
m
quite
sane
.
"
Twissell
said
,
"
I
told
you
the
girl
was
in
no
danger
,
you
know
.
"
"
I
was
a
fool
to
believe
that
even
for
a
while
.
I
was
a
fool
to
believe
the
Council
would
be
just
to
a
Technician
.
