"Bernard, I have served eleven governments in the past thirty years. If I had believed in all their policies, I would have been passionately committed to keeping out of the Common Market, and passionately committed to going into it. I would have been utterly convinced of the rightness of nationalising steel. And of denationalising it and renationalising it. On capital punishment, I'd have been a fervent retentionist and an ardent abolishionist. I would've been a Keynesian and a Friedmanite, a grammar school preserver and destroyer, a nationalisation freak and a privatisation maniac; but above all, I would have been a stark, staring, raving schizophrenic."
Sir Humphrey, Yes, Minister

Lilandra: You are a warrior of honor! Why do you serve a madman like my brother?
Gladiator: Princess, I serve the imperial throne of the Shi'Ar. And D'Ken sits on that throne.
