“They were offered the choice between becoming kings or the couriers of kings. The way children would, they all wanted to be couriers. Therefore there are only couriers who hurry about the world, shouting to each other-since there are no kings–messages that have become meaningless. They would like to put an end to this miserable life of theirs but they dare not because of their oaths of service.”–a parable of Kafka
They were offered the choice between being children or kings. The way sinners would, they all wanted to be kings. Therefore there are only kings who rule their own world, shouting to each other-since there are no children–orders that were always meaningless. They would like to become children but they dare not because of their delusions of power.
