O slavish man! will you not bear with your own brother, who has God
for his Father, as being a son from the same stock, and of the same
high descent? But if you chance to be placed in some superior station,
will you presently set yourself up for a tyrant?
-- Epictetus (c. 60 AD)
-- Discourses, Book i, Chap. xiii
