"Then you are more conscientious than I gave you credit for."

In truth, Cesare himself had been far from careful with such things at Thomas' age. He had a propensity towards killing people and simply throwing their bodies into the Tiber. It had been foolish. Cesare has learned a lot since then. He appreciates that Thomas is doing better.
