(有朋友撰文曾经专门描述过这双眼睛(详)。一直以来我都坚信:如果不考虑其它因素,凯奇才是这一版超人最合适的人选(图),但看过小说后,我才知道我错了。凯奇可以演绎出超人全部的犹豫心事,但却可能无法展示超人所特有的---阳光与清澈,那有尘士之忧,却未受尘世沾染的纯静!(Sorry!凯奇和他的粉丝。)即使在心碎的时刻,他最担心的也是:自己是不是干扰了人类的正常生活?(注:产生困惑的原因参见Why the World Doesn't Need Superman.))
他静立于天空与父亲有了如下这段心灵交流:
They can be a great people, Kal-El. They wish to be."
"I've seen that greatness, Father. I've walked with them, and I know they yearn for the truth. I've seen it in their eyes. They hope. They wish. They try so hard.
(大意:我已经亲眼看到了这种伟大,父亲。我和他们走在一起,我知道他们盼望真相。我从他们的眼睛看到了。他们的希望,他们的梦想。他们如此努力地尝试。)
"I'm not sure they need me anymore. Honestly, I'm not sure they ever did. I worry my presence made them depend too much on hie, but I can't turn my back on them. I can't let them suffer when I can alleviate so much pain. I don't know what to do, Father. And I don't know where to turn."
(大意:我不确信他们还需要我。说实在,我(甚至)不确信他们曾经需要我。我担心我的出现让他们太过依赖,但我无法做到毫不在意他们。当我能减轻那么多痛苦时,我不能袖手旁观。我不知道(应该)做什么,父亲。我不知道该要哪儿回头。)
"They only lack the light to show them the way. For this reason, above all, their capacity for good, I have sent them you, my only son."
