Why
should
I
?
They
came
to
look
at
me
,
didn
’
t
they
?
At
that
breakfast
?
Why
should
they
have
done
that
if
they
didn
’
t
know
of
the
report
?
They
came
to
look
at
the
queer
phenomenon
who
had
broken
the
laws
of
Eternity
but
who
couldn
’
t
be
touched
for
one
more
day
.
One
more
day
and
then
the
project
would
be
over
.
They
came
to
gloat
for
the
tomorrow
they
were
expecting
.
"
"
My
boy
,
there
was
nothing
of
that
.
They
wanted
to
see
you
only
because
they
were
human
.
Councilmen
are
human
too
.
They
could
not
witness
the
final
kettle
drive
because
the
Mallansohn
memoir
did
not
place
them
at
the
scene
.
They
could
not
interview
Cooper
since
the
memoir
made
no
mention
of
that
either
.
Yet
they
wanted
something
.
Father
Time
,
boy
,
don
’
t
you
see
they
would
want
something
?
You
were
as
close
as
they
could
get
,
so
they
brought
you
close
and
stared
at
you
.
"
"
I
don
’
t
believe
you
.
"
"
It
’
s
the
truth
.
"
Harlan
said
,
"
Is
it
?
And
while
we
ate
,
Councilman
Sennor
talked
of
a
man
meeting
himself
.
He
obviously
knew
about
my
illegal
trips
into
the
482nd
and
my
nearly
meeting
myself
.
It
was
his
way
of
poking
at
me
,
enjoying
himself
cutely
at
my
expense
.
"
Twissell
said
,
"
Sennor
?
You
worried
about
Sennor
?
Do
you
know
the
pathetic
figure
he
is
?
His
homewhen
is
the
803rd
,
one
of
the
few
cultures
in
which
the
human
body
is
deliberately
disfigured
to
meet
the
aesthetic
requirements
of
the
time
.
It
is
rendered
hairless
at
adolescence
.
"
Do
you
know
what
that
means
in
the
continuity
of
man
?
Surely
you
do
.
A
disfigurement
sets
men
apart
from
their
ancestors
and
descendants
.
Men
of
the
803rd
are
poor
risks
as
Eternals
;
they
are
too
different
from
the
rest
of
us
.
Few
are
chosen
.
Sennor
is
the
only
one
of
his
Century
ever
to
sit
on
the
Council
.
"
Don
’
t
you
see
how
that
affects
him
?
Surely
you
understand
what
insecurity
means
.
Did
it
ever
occur
to
you
that
a
Councilman
could
be
insecure
?
Sennor
has
to
listen
to
discussions
involving
the
eradication
of
his
Reality
for
the
very
characteristic
that
makes
him
so
conspicuous
among
us
.
And
eradicating
it
would
leave
him
one
of
a
very
few
in
all
the
generation
to
be
disfigured
as
he
is
.
Someday
it
will
happen
.
"
He
finds
refuge
in
philosophy
.
He
overcompensates
by
taking
the
lead
in
conversation
,
by
deliberately
airing
unpopular
or
unaccepted
viewpoints
.
His
man
-
meeting
-
himself
paradox
is
a
case
in
point
.
I
told
you
that
he
used
it
to
predict
disaster
for
the
project
and
it
was
we
,
the
Councilmen
,
that
he
was
attempting
to
annoy
,
not
you
.
It
had
nothing
to
do
with
you
.
Nothing
!
