"[Aquino] approaches authoritarian whim and belief of infallibility"
"Michael Aquino has presumed sovereignty in excess of his actual station. He is one of many, and he knows it. He is not one of the
Nine, as some of you who read this know; but not wishing to burst anyone’s balloon, I have watched him toss the term about like a medicine ball."
"Don’t be fooled by Mr. Aquino’s obsession with material contributions as a means towards elevation. He has isolated it from other alternatives and beaten you over the head with it.
