2 1ST SPECTATOR "What wisdom is contained in the saying, 'uneasy is the head that wears the crown.' " 2ND SPECTATOR "He was not a king...he led a republic. Some say very well, others say, that he was not the man, that others say he was." 1ST SPECTATOR "Have you no say...you are generally quite verbose about all the other confrontations." 2ND SPECTATOR "If you notice, I am never very talkative when the man involved has been a leader of men. I held my thoughts about Napoleon and Washington. Rasputin, I talked about and I was justified by the quickness of his hearing. It's taken a long time from Mr. Lincoln's confrontation." 1ST SPECTATOR "The time itself shows you how much effect he had on men, during his time." 2ND SPECTATOR "Yes and No!...Some men are more clever than others. A quiet, resourceful embezzler has been known to steal for long periods and because of his personality and craft he has gone undetected until a seizure of illness, commits the destiny of his accounts to the eyes of others." 1ST SPECTATOR "You are right, a clever leader has access to many ploys. I believe the confrontation is the fairest and best way for a man to see himself. It is wrong for a man to see himself as belonging only to the bookends of his years, from birth to death. Tell me, how did the confrontations come about?"
