{{Cquote DOS2|
... must never forget that all citizens of the realm have an equal stake in its success and ought never to be subjugated to the will of the few, and especially not to that of a tyrant. There is not a monarch alive who has not, by sheer force of nature, been removed from the cares and concerns of his or her citizens. Thus, there is not a monarch alive who deserves his or her position.

If what I say is true, you may wonder how it is at all possible to govern, if the act of governing itself corrupts. My answer is very simple: Let the people rule.}}
