From the library

Mais les rois de nos jours, maintenus dans la limite du probable, n'ont plus l'audace de la volonté ; ils craignent l'oreille qui écoute les ordres qu'ils donnent, l'œil qui scrute leurs actions ; ils ne sentent plus la supériorité de leur essence divine ; ils sont des hommes couronnés, voilà tout.
Le Comte de Monte-Cristo, p. 147 · C1
