A small bird will drop frozen, dead, from a bough
Without ever, having felt sorry, for itself."

personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it is magnetic to the
corruptible. Such people have a tendency to become drunk on violence, a
condition to which they are quickly addicted.

worst get their dramatic coloration from it. As nearly as we can determine,
there is no natural immunity. Constant alertness is required."
