"There was once a wise spiritual master who was the ruler of a small, but prosperous domain and who was known for his selfless devotion to his people. As his people flourished and grew in number, the bounds of his small domain spread and with it, the need to trust implicitly the emissaries he sent to ensure the safety of its evermore distant parts. It was not just that it was impossible for him personally to order all that needed to be dealt with, as he wisely saw, he needed to keep his distance from and remain ignorant of such concerns. And so he nurtured and trained carefully his emissaries in order that they could be trusted. Eventually, however, his cleverest and most ambitious Visier, the one he most trusted to do his work, began to see himself as the master and use his position to advance his own wealth and influence. He saw his master's temperance and forbearance as weakness, not wisdom, and on his missions, on his master's behalf, adopted his mantle as his own. The emissary became tempestuous of his master and so it came about that the master was usurped. The people were duped. The domain became a tyranny and eventually it all collapsed in ruins." - Friedrich Nietzsche
