Alexander Belyaev. Chelovek-amfibiya (№ 446995)

I was afraid that my invention, in the conditions of our social order, would do more harm than good. A struggle has already begun around Ichthyander. Who denounced me out of revenge? Here is this Zurita who stole Ichthyander from me. And the generals and admirals would have taken away Zurit Ichthyander, what good, in order to force the amphibious man to sink warships. No, I could not make Ichthyander and the "Ichthyanders" common property in a country where struggle and greed turn the highest discoveries into evil, increasing the amount of human suffering.
