Он полагает, что вокруг него есть и другие - креи, рыболюди, Сукин Джон, которым тоже не терпится проверить, насколько глубоко они смогут опуститься, - но он их не видит.

И оправдывался перед весьма скептически настроенными старшими тем, что нельзя успешно служить Господу, только воспаряя к высотам натуры человеческой и не ныряя в ее глубины.
