In the evening, after we dance, he rarely returns to the throne; he dances with others or moves from place to place through the room. The court thinks he is trying to be gracious, sharing his attention. Only I see that he moves always to the empty spot and the court always moves after him.

Now it's not an admirable process. I think we've gone backwards.

When, it's like those people don't make history, it's us.
