I would have nobody to control me; I would be absolute. Now, he that is absolute can do what he likes; he that can do what he likes can take his pleasure; he that can take his pleasure can be content; and he that can be content has no more to desire; so the matter’s over, and come what will come, I am satisfied.[translation by John Willis Clark]
