The rest of the day was passed in calculations and in conversations. I remained a steadfast adherent of the opinions of Professor Liedenbrock, and I envied the stolid indifference of Hans, who, without going into causes and effects, went on with his eyes shut wherever his destiny guided him.
El resto de la jornada transcurrió en conversaciones y cálculos, mostrándome siempre conforme con el parecer del profesor, y envidiando la perfecta indiferencia de Hans, que, sin meterse a buscar las causas de los efectos, marchaba ciegamente por donde le llevaba el destino.
