Quotes 

• Tabernacle : You are asked to vote at the termination of the trial of George Saden. Final statement from the accused begins.

  George Saden : I confess to the charges, but plead mitigation. These thoughts are constructive criticisms. Pyramidical. I try to suppress these thoughts, but they leak out in Second Level through the head-wound of my third death. I was imperfectly repaired. No. That is not true. I think what I think!

  Friend : [murmuring]  That's more like it! I'm with you, George.

  George Saden : I hate you all. I hate you all. I hate you all. Especially me.

  [the Tabernacle chimes] 

  Tabernacle : Vote, please. Vote, please.

  Friend : [to Zed]  I'm voting for him, Monster. It won't do any good. Nothing ever does.

  [Friend speaks into his ring] 

  Friend : Absolute acquittal!

• George Saden : I have studied our social, emotional substructures for 140 years. These thoughts are constructive criticisms. Pyramidical. I am innocent of psychic violence. As you examine my face and eyes, you will see that this is true.

  May : He's lying.
