" "

He said, "In all human history, no other intelligence has impinged on us, to our knowledge. This need only continue a few more centuries, perhaps little more than one ten thousandth of the time civilization has already existed, and we will be safe. After all," and here Trevize felt a sudden twinge of trouble, which he forced himself to disregard, "it is not as though we had the enemy already here and among us." And he did not look down to meet the brooding eyes of Fallom–hermaphroditic, transductive, different–as they rested, unfathomably, on him.

Additional quotes by Isaac Asimov

Ese mismo año, un grupo de astrónomos encabezado por Cornell H. Mayer recibió ondas de
radio procedentes de Venus y quedó atónito al ver que la intensidad de esas ondas equivalía a la que
cabía esperar de un objeto mucho más caliente de lo que se creía que era Venus. De ser eso cierto, no
podría haber océano planetario en Venus; de hecho, no podía haber agua líquida de ninguna clase (y así
se echó a perder mi pobre novela, que sólo hacía dos años que había sido publicada).

No se trataba de un rey, pues no había heredado su cargo ni, por ende, tenía ningún derecho legal o sagrado. Era sencillamente un "amo", nada más. La palabra griega que lo designaba era tyrannos, que se ha convertido en nuestra voz "tirano".
