Kate Cooper Quotes

The Second Lesson Pulcheria Learned From Her Mother Had To Do With What Kind Of Man One Could Trust. Fundamentally, Any Outstanding Man At Court Who Had Sons Of His Own - Or Hope Of Having Them - Was A Potential Usurper. This Is Why Eunuchs Played Such An Important Role In The Imperial Palace. But Christian Priests And Bishops Constituted Another Class Of Men Who - Even If They Did Have Children - Had Sworn Themselves To A Vocation In The Church. This Meant That However Much Trouble They Stirred Up, They Could Not Threaten The Emperor's Person. Still, They Had To Be Managed Expertly. Eudoxia Had Discovered That Bishops Could Be Valuable Allies And Formidable Enemies, And Pulcheria Took This Lesson To Heart.
