Sir, it takes a big man to look at himself and find fault. And then to stand
before all and acknowledge these faults. What you have said and done proves
that you are a great man. For that I salute you and admire you. May we all
learn from this example, look at ourselves, and be honest with what we find.
To you, sir, I say Vivat!
Your servant,
Karl Muller
