"I'm not talking about fame, Ender. I'm not talking about power, either. I'm talking about accidents, just like theaccident that Mazer Rackham happened to be the one who was there when somebody had to stop the buggers.""If I'm here," said Ender, "then I won't be there. Somebody else will. Let them have the accident."His tone of weary unconcern infuriated her. "I'm talking about my life, you self-centered little bastard." If herwords bothered him, he didn't show it. Just lay there, eyes closed. "When you were little and Peter tortured you,it's a good thing I didn't lie back and wait for Mom and Dad to save you. They never understood how dangerousPeter was. I knew you had the monitor, but I didn't wait for them, either. Do you know what Peter used to do tome because I stopped him from hurting you?""Shut up," Ender whispered.Because she saw that his chest was trembling, because she knew that she had indeed hurt him, because sheknew that just like Peter, she had found his weakest place and stabbed him there, she fell silent."I can't beat them," Ender said softly, "I'll be out there like Mazer Rackham one day, and everybody will bedepending on me, and I won't be able to do it.""If you can't, Ender, then nobody could.

It won't be your fault.""Tell it to the dead.""If not you, then who?""Anybody."第 254 页 共 340 页http://www.en8848.com.cn/ 原 版 英 语 阅 读 网
