”I'm a bit concerned by all these eyes that keep turning in our direction. If someone can find a way of protecting Temple, I'm sure it won't go amiss. Not that I don't trust the Nexus to do their jobs, but it can't help to be sure.” - Magister Caelibi

”Has anyone else noticed Excogitatoris making a fool of us recently? I'm sure we would be better off with someone else as our voice. No, Percutiam, I don't mean offing him. I mean having someone else step up to the mark.” - Magister Caelibi

”Now if I were doing things that I shouldn't be doing, say plotting against those I shouldn't be plotting against, then I would certainly go about it like that little group of Siren, Caitlin and Laurie have been doing. Not that I would cast aspersions against those who have no reason to have aspersions cast against them, but I wish that I knew a bit more about the sorts of things that go on in the sorts of places where I have a right to know about them.” - Magister Excogitatoris
