| ...there is nothing diviner about a king
than there is about a tramp, after all. He is just a cheap and hollow artificiality
when you don't know he is a king. But reveal his quality, and dear me, it
takes your breath away to look at him. I reckon we are all fools. Born so,
no doubt. - A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court |

Monarchs are usurpers and descendants of usurpers; for
the reason that no throne was ever set up in this world by the will, freely
exercised, of the only body possessing the legitimate right to set it
up--the numerical mass of the nation. Kings is mostly rapscallions. |
