”Weather Mr. Black’s skill for sculpture is that of a Michaelangelo or that of a plumber, which is most likely… I would like to see him join the First Estate.” That was it, just it.

”That’s how you will secure your place as a Lord in the First Estate and that’s how our family will grow in strength… from then on you will groom them one by one, you can even sponsor Mr. Black with a studio and with tenancy, after all he has an eternity to become good at whatever he does.
Love it.

Think like an immortal.
