“И все время я испытывал чувство страха и стыда. Иногда, вечерами, я как будто приходил в себя. И даже подумывал о том, чтобы выйти на другой день подышать свежим воздухом. Но ночью вдруг я чувствовал, что страх и жгучий стыд вновь наполняют меня так, что на голове шевелятся корни волос… прямо наваждение какое-то! Я плотнее, с головой, укрывался одеялом и лежал притаившись, боясь пошевельнуться. А наутро не выходил в столовую, отговариваясь головной болью. Окна в моей комнате были завешены наглухо.”
Alexander Romanovich Belyaev, Властелин мира
