Alas, poor Peri, not for us the pleasures of Phaestor 95 . . . I
am a living peril to the universe. If this poor hive is to be
cleansed, there's only one recourse--contemplation, self-abnegation
in some hellish wilderness--ten days, ten years, a thousand years,
of what consequence is time to me? I shall become a hermit, and you,
child, shall be my disciple.
-- Dr. Colin Baker, THE TWIN DILEMMA
