HF772 - Strange women lying in ponds
Trådtittelen er et sitat fra Monty Pythons klassiske film The Holy Grail fra 1975:
- I am your king.
- Well, I didn't vote for you.
- You don't vote for kings.
- Well, how'd you become king, then?
- The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.
- Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
- Be quiet!
- You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
- Shut up!
- I mean, if I went around saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
