Laws Are The Sovereigns Of Sovereigns.

Why Do You Weep? Did You Think I Was Immortal?

Only Small Minds Want Always To Be Right.

The Years Go By One After The Other; Time Slips Past Us With Out Our Being Aware Of It; We Grow Old Like Ordinary Men And We Shall End Like Them.

Up To This Moment I Have Been Pleased To Entrust The Government Of My Affairs To The Late Cardinal. It Is Now Time That I Govern Them Myself. You [secretaries And Ministers Of State] Will Assist Me With Your Counsels When I Ask For Them. I Request And Order You To Seal No Orders Except By My Command, . . . I Order You Not To Sign Anything, Not Even A Passport . . . Without My Command; To Render Account To Me Personally Each Day And To Favor No One.

I See No Point In Reading.
