“All we are doing is taking humanity to the next level. Unifying the race. No more prejudices. No more conflicts. No more have’s and have-not’s. No more us and them.

“I… don’t understand. You’re making… a celestial?”
“Of course. What did you think celestials were?”
“They are uni-minds of entire planets. Clad in armor.”

My favorite part is one from teh first part of the quote: “All we’re doing is unifying the planet”, emphasis on the “all we’re doing.” as if peace is a formula denied us by our own ignorance.
