“They will only bring it down!" The secretary's voice was uncomprehending.
Crispin did turn then, to look back over his shoulder. They were staring at him, the three of them, so were the others in the Sanctuary.
He said, "I understand. But they will have to DO that. Bring it down. I will make what I make, in this civilized, holy place. Others will have to give the orders to destroy. As barbarians once destroyed Rhodias...since it could not defend itself.”
― Lord of Emperors
