“In the square field of the game he has found the ground mirror of the circular plan of the heavenly sphere. Through play, he was becoming aware of the crux gemmata �� the sign of Christ, and he created the letters of the Glagolitic script, and turned the trinitarian game into a tetragonic one.

The Glagolitic is his game with three marbles �� one for each of the messengers of the good news.”

“Wild animals, that is what we are, John. You believe in man and his laws, and laws would not be necessary if we were not wild animals.

“Святий Кирило, поборник єдності, був людиною фанатично ревною. Він користався своїм становищем патріарха, аби розпалювати погроми в дуже великій єврейській колонії у Александрії. Найбільш уславився він самосудом над Гіпатією, видатною жінкою, що в ту добу святенництва держалась неоплатонічної філософії й присвятила свої таланти математиці. її «стягли з колісниці, здерли з неї весь одяг, затягли до церкви й нелюдськи замордували читець Петро та юрба знавіснілих безжальних фанатиків; м'ясо зішкрібали їй з кісток гострими скойками, а потім кинули тіло, яке ще корчилось, у вогонь. Справедливий хід слідства й покари був зупинений відповідними хабарами». Після цього філософи більш не баламутили Александрії.”
