Masters
There are a total of 27 masters in Vantage Master, of which 18 can be accessed normally. In Expert and Scenario mode, your master is picked by answering 4 questions. The required answer to create each master are exactly the same in VM1, VM2, and VMP.

Famous quotes containing the word masters:
“Good masters generally have bad slaves, and bad slaves have good masters.”
—Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)
“Today as in the time of Pliny and Columella, the hyacinth flourishes in Wales, the periwinkle in Illyria, the daisy on the ruins of Numantia; while around them cities have changed their masters and their names, collided and smashed, disappeared into nothingness, their peaceful generations have crossed down the ages as fresh and smiling as on the days of battle.”
—Edgar Quinet (1803–1875)
“We are all hostages, and we are all terrorists. This circuit has replaced that other one of masters and slaves, the dominating and the dominated, the exploiters and the exploited.... It is worse than the one it replaces, but at least it liberates us from liberal nostalgia and the ruses of history.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
