" .. The only trouble you have ever taken is to be born and nothing more ..."


"Because you are a great nobleman you think you are a great genius. Nobility, fortune, rank, position! How proud they make a man feel! What have you done to deserve such advantages? Put yourself to the trouble of being born — nothing more! For the rest of us, you just are a very ordinary man!" 
Pierre Beaumarchais (Marriage of Figaro)
