Hm... very philosophical title...
As once the winged energy of delight
carried you over childhood's dark abysses,
now beyond your own life build the great
arch of unimagined bridges.
Wonders happen if we can succeed
in passing through the harshest danger;
but only in a bright and purely granted
achievement can we realize the wonder.
To work with things in the indescribable
relationship is not too hard for us;
the pattern grows more intricate and subtle,
and being swept along is not enough.
Take your practiced powers and stretch them out
until they span the chasm between two contradictions
For the god wants to know himself in you.*
However Upon clicking the first link on a search
I find "The Scandal of Reason: Or Shadow of God"
Be warned tho. It is about a 700 or so pages long with talks on theorys and what the quote rare has is also on about. Pretty heavy reading imo. However I am not to sure if it will be of any use. But heck does seem to be a good read if into that sort of thing.
EDIT: The link will bring you to page 150 and at the near bottom of its page is the quote itself.

Or it might be referring to the phase of the mission where you find an empty room with multiple data links feeding into it, but nothing is actually in it. O_o Mysterious, indeed. All roads apparently lead to Mauser.

Does that mean operatives are still not seeing the matrix like it should... I want my money back XD. Ive been hagged ..
Anybody have the Operator's line where he calls in the Effectuator? I seem to have misplaced it...
Operator:
Jeez, that one shows two connections,
and one's back to the dead room you
just came through.
This makes like no sense, so I'm
calling in an expert. Hold on a sec...
(Is that what you need Zippy?)
Yes, thank you.
Now I can work on my summaries! :D

Ooh... the mystery room with the multiple connections and no visual reason for them. No wonder they had to call in the Effectuator to figure this out. I love the dialouge from the Bluepills, particularly the two developers bickering. Lots of mystery in this mission, though on the surface, it might seem like a quiet one...
