“You could name the great stars of the silent screen who were finished; the great directors gone; the great title writers who were washed up.

“When a monarchy gradually transforms itself into a republic, the executive power there preserves titles, honors, respect, and even money long after it has lost the reality of power. The English, having cut off the head of one of their kings and chased another off the throne, still go on their knees to address the successors of those princes. On the other hand, when a republic falls under one man's yoke, the ruler's demeanor remains simple, unaffected, and modest, as if he had not already been raised above everybody.” IfsMenLongStillsHandsRealityFallLostSimpleCuttingGoes OnKingsHonorRemainsRaisedTitlesPreservesKneesAddressesExecutivesOne ManRepublicRulersThronesModestMonarchySuccessorsYokeDemeanorExecutive Power Book:Democracy in America Source: Democracy in America
“I like to go for a certain over-the-top opulence when naming the drone pieces whereas the song titles are all about concision, I guess.

“It was from America that the plain ideas that men ought to mind their business, and that the nation is responsible to Heaven for the acts of the State, - ideas long locked in the breast of solitary thinkers, and hidden among Latin folios, - burst forth like a conqueror upon the world they were destined to transform, under the title of the Rights of Man... and the principle gained ground, that a nation can never abandon its fate to an authority it cannot control.” MenWorldMindLongIdeasStatesAmericaHeavenNationsPrinciplesFateRightsOughtAuthorityResponsibleTitlesBreastsAbandonLatinThinkerLockedSolitaryDestinedConqueror Author:Lord Acton
