Do you know why I took this position, Doctor Brennan? It wasn't for power, or anything grand like that. I do this because I am good at it, and my skill will keep others alive. I am not a sentimental person. There is no forgiving what I did, so I do not seek that. But I can do this small thing while I am here, and that--that is something.
