She took a small device out of her bag, slipped it into her pocket.Micro recorder? Roarke clucked his tongue. I believe that's illegal. Not to mention rude.I don't know what you're talking about.And unnecessary, he added. He turned his wrist, tapped a tiny button on the side of his watch. This one is much more efficient. I should know. I manufacture both brands. He smiled as the car stopped at the edge of a small clearing

In the scene, a character discreetly takes a small recording device from her bag and hides it in her pocket. Roarke, observing this, points out the potential illegality and discourteousness of her action. He suggests that recording her conversations could be unnecessary, emphasizing the importance of respect and privacy in their interactions.
To illustrate his point further, Roarke showcases a more advanced method of recording, tapping a button on his wristwatch. He reveals that he is familiar with both devices, hinting at his expertise, and notes that his device is more effective. This exchange highlights the contrast between their approaches and establishes a dynamic between the two characters.

The value of money is subjective, depending on age. At the age of one, one multiplies the actual sum by 145,000, making one pound seem like 145,000 pounds to a one-year-old. At seven – Bertie's age – the multiplier is 24, so that five pounds seems like 120 pounds. At the age of twenty four, five pounds is five pounds; at forty five it is divided by 5, so that it seems like one pound and one pound seems like twenty pence. {All figures courtesy of Scottish Government Advice Leaflet: Handling your Money.}

Look, if you say that science will eventually prove there is no God, on that I must differ. No matter how small they take it back, to a tadpole, to an atom, there is always something they can't explain, something that created it all at the end of the search.
And no matter how far they try to go the other way – to extend life, play around with the genes, clone this, clone that, live to one hundred and fifty – at some point, life is over. And then what happens? When the life comes to an end?
I shrugged.
You see?
He leaned back. He smiled.
When you come to the end, that's where God begins.

You say you should have died instead of me. But during my time on earth, people died instead of me, too. It happens every day. When lightning strikes a minute after you are gone, or an airplane crashes that you might have been on. When your colleague falls ill and you do not. We think such things are random. But there is a balance to it all. One withers, another grows. Birth and death are part of a whole.
