They
know too much.
Of that,
I am certain. But
they remain,
it seems,
ignorant
of the value
of
what they know.
Even ignorant
of how to think,
of
how to draw
the proper conclusions.
It seems. Still,
they know,
and they could talk.
Or
worse,
someone,
unknown,
could overhear
their conversations.
And
soon,
everyone will know.
Everyone. That
is,
of
course,
unacceptable. We
are all agreed
on that. And
so it seems,
necessity comes
to play,
in this
unfortunate
situation.
Along with all
its
hardfast
rules. And
they...
they will have to be
eliminated.
Yes. Eliminated,
taken
out of
the picture,
if
you will. Things
will be
simpler
then. We
could rest
more comfortably,
and focus our energies
elsewhere,
on more immediate
concerns.
And of these,
as
we all know,
there are many.
Too
many. Caution
demands
this course
of action. And
safety.
Our
safety. This
is,
at
least,
my recommendation,
my official
recommendation.
