"It is extreme arrogance for one to think he...and it's usually he, is the only one who can govern his country and nobody else can do it."

Previous Quote

No cause more frequently produces bashfulness than too high an opinion of our own importance. He that imagines an assembly filled with his merit, panting with expectation, and hushed with attention, easily terrifies himself with the dread of disappointing them, and strains his imagination in pursuit of something that may vindicate the veracity of fame, and show that his reputation was not gained by chance.

— Samuel Johnson
