EPIGRAPH: All political power is primarily an illusion... Mirrors and blue smoke, beautiful blue smoke rolling over the surface of highly polished mirrors... If somebody tells you how to look, there can be seen in the smoke great, magnificient shapes, castles and kingdoms, and maybe they can be yours.
The ability to create the illusion of power, to use mirrors and blue smoke, is one found in unusual poeple.
