Oh, to be most fascinating being in the entire world; to have scientists study me because I'm so very clever; to be so charming no woman can resist it, even from another specie. Oh to be the whitest white man in 70s. 

But seriously, there are a lot of interesting thoughts and ideas in this short novel, I just wish Boulle would have spend more time thinking them through, instead of focusing on naked women. But alas, the misogyny must have clogged his magnificent human brain.
