I'll hunt you to th' very bowels of the earth! This is horrid! The captains a manacled power drunk tyrant! Apparently, sir... This whole nightmare calls to mind the familiar Lord Acton quote... Absolute power corrupts absolutely... Except, of course when wielded by an elite group of major industrialists, CEOs and international investors... That goes without saying, sir...

All humans are stupid, except for the ones who have been elevated to positions of wealth and power. Ask them.

Good morning Monty fans. Is the Coast Guard coming to save Sedgie and Jarvis? Not! Have an abundant day my friends.

Sedgie needs to get into the spirit of the hunt for the Great White! It will be fun, Sedgwick, even more so than a board meeting!

The actual quote reads: “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power tends to corrupt absolutely.” So Lord Acton’s quote is not a black-and-white condition.
