They say that life's a carousel
Spinning fast, you've got to ride it well
The world is full of kings and queens
Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams
It's heaven and hell, oh well
And they'll tell you black is really white
The moon is just the sun at night
And when you walk in golden halls
You get to keep the gold that falls
It's heaven and hell, oh no
- Black Sabbath, "Heaven and Hell"

"Do you know what key to retaining power is? Fear? No, although fear has its uses. Wealth? Again no. Wealth is only a means to an end to the real reason. FUN is the key! Keep them entertained, and you can do anything you want, and they will still love you. Those leaders that deny fun, are quickly put up against the wall. The others dangle entertainment like a carrot at the end of the stick, giving just enough to keep the people in check. Me? I say give them what they want!"
"Those who fear you, want you dead. Those with money want to take your place. Those having fun want you to live forever, and will come back to you for more like some rattling junkie!"
- Norman Gates, First Advisor, Collective of Anarchist States

- "A capable leader, to be sure. Some of his proclivities do leave me wondering... for example, why he is so fond of thwarted villainy that I expect he craves being beaten repeatedly by Moose and Squirrel." – Edwin Devonshire
- "Oh he's a wonderful Tyrant, he eats my cookies and gives me new recipes to try out he even will snuggle up in warm blankets when we watch movies. He's also really brave because he laughs during the scary parts." - Sweetcrumb
- "The Tyrant and I understand one another, our roles and our duties, yes. Believe me, I would take cold comfort in that if only I could, but we are what we are, each of us. But we also understand that beggars cannot be choosers in the depths of Winter." - Iris Argiope
