The emperor not only had no clothes—turns out he had no testicles either.
It’s funny that two of the most highlighted sections in the book are on this page—because they speak so directly to our times. I can imagine how the people in power around the world would bluster if the Thunderhead said “Thanks, I can handle it from here. Don’t slam the door on the way out.” And the idea of the blustering ones having absolutely no power to do anything about it? Damn, that makes me feel good. I have to admit, I laughed out loud when I came up this line. The proverbial emperor with neither clothes nor testicles. And probably very small hands.
