?Quot homines tot sententiae.?
So many people so many opinions. The voice of the leader slices across the
indiscernible chatter. All persuading , nobly commanding . A clear voice brings with
it a defined course. The rest obey , they lack the chief?s possessions.
?Qualis Rex talis grex?. Such is the leader , such is the people.
One?s virtues are taken note of .The most ardent admirers mold themselves to that
manner. What their leaders do and and do not. Whatever those venerated say or
withhold. There are imitators , emulators , travesty smiths.
Once in a while , one or a small band of them rise to remold status quo. A wave is
hatched and unleashed .It becomes an acceptable convention.
It is the manner of people that which is proven will be used till the spring is parched
or when something superior is offered and that offering tickles their longing.
Far easier to remain constant than alter a course. Given the disposition toward ease ,
the well trodden tempts .Yet heed well that it is the passage of tribulation where the
coronet of glory and honour rests on the head of those who are uncowed .They shall
find that fame latches like their own skin to their name .
