“Все вы одинаковы, этакие огромные волосатые мотыльки, изо всех сил рветесь к какому-нибудь дурацкому огоньку, бьетесь о прозрачное стекло и никак его не разглядите. А уж если ухитритесь пробраться сквозь стекло, так лезете прямо в огонь и сгораете, и конец. А ведь рядом тень и прохлада, есть и еда, и любовь, и можно завести новых маленьких мотыльков. Но разве вы это видите, разве вы этого хотите? Ничего подобного! Вас опять тянет к огню и вы бьетесь, бьетесь до бесчувствия, пока не сгорите!”
