Everyone wants to rule the world . Really, absolutely everyone. That's what it's all about, isn't it? That's what it's always about in the end. And every species believes it's number one. Every individual is firmly convinced that he or she alone has the right to ascend to the throne and issue orders to get rid of others. And in reality everyone is fooling themselves, because up there on the throne it's lonely and cold. . Anonymous
About This Quote

If you are trying to rule the world then you are not really ruling anyone. You are saying, “I am the ruler and all others must obey me.” This is not how to make the world a better place. If you are king or queen of your own castle, then you can make rules that make your life enjoyable and comfortable. But if you want to make the world a better place, then there is no one who can stop you.
