Leo Tolstoy Quotes
To Every Administrator, In Peaceful, Unstormy Times, It Seems That The Entire Population Entrusted To Him Moves Only By His Efforts, And In This Consciousness Of His Necessity Every Administrator Finds The Chief Rewards For His Labors And Efforts. It Is Understandable That, As Long As The Historical Sea Is Calm, It Must Seem To The Ruler-administrator In His Frail Little Bark, Resting His Pole Against The Ship Of The People And Moving Along With It, That His Efforts Are Moving The Ship. But Once A Storm Arises, The Sea Churns Up, And The Ship Begins To Move My Itself, And Then The Delusion Is No Longer Possible. The Ship Follows Its Own Enormous, Independent Course, The Pole Does Not Reach The Moving Ship, And The Ruler Suddenly, From His Position Of Power, From Being A Source Of Strength, Becomes An Insignificant, Useless, And Feeble Human Being.
