Robert lifted his hand upwards as its elbow was supporting it on the though, nicely crafted, wooden table, as if Robert wanted to announce a reply over Lucius' commentary.
He refrained. " Morals possess little relevance. They do nothing but provide a consternating impediment towards one's true potential and overall efficiency " this thought emerged in the deepest entrails of his mind.
