"Some of you might ask why I won't just permanently control all of you after I become Prime.
For one, it is completely unnecessary. Why should we be a hive mind? I don't know how to paint a picture, or how to write a book, or to operate a spaceship.
Second, It would be extremely difficult for me. Imagine you had a million million arms average sized arms and you had to give them all different instructions at once.
Third, that wouldn't be pure unity.
It's like happiness.
Without sadness, there would be no happiness.
Without dissident, there would be no unity.
In fact, we wouldn't be here if not for dissident.
In the first moments of the big bang, quantum fluctuations caused tiny variations in the spread of matter and energy, letting gravity o take hold and create stars.
Therefore, dissident created the universe."
-Sections of prime's "Universe" speech, given shortly before he became the true Prime.
