📘 The King is one thing . . . and the man who is made King, another thing.These are the thoughts of young Augustin -- newly crowned the King . . . and then given a whipping for insolence!The King is crowned, the man is lashed; they give us greatness in words: in fact, we are our servants' servants. Little as I liked the thing at the time, I cannot now regret that I was chastised on my coronation day. I was thus put into an attitude eminently conducive to the perception of truth, and to a realization of the facts of my position.
