Stanislaw LEM. Solaris (№ 382732)

Contact means the exchange of some information, concepts, results... But if you have nothing to share? If the elephant is not very large bacterium, the ocean can't be very big brain. Both sides can, of course, be some action. In one of them I'm looking at you and trying to tell you that you are dearer to me than those twelve years I have devoted to Solaris and I want to be with you. Maybe your appearance is supposed to be torture, maybe service, maybe microscopic study. Expression of friendship, a treacherous blow, perhaps a mockery? Maybe all together, or - what seems to me the most plausible - something quite different. But in the end aren't we to take the intentions of our parents, as they would each other any different? You can tell that these intentions our future depends, and with this I agree. Can not anticipate what is to come. As well as you. Can't even promise you that I'll always love. After what happened, I have nothing surprised. Maybe tomorrow you will become a green jellyfish? It does not depend on us. But that depends on us, be together. Isn't that enough?
