I Have You in My Eye, Sir


Why, who could flourish on such a daily diet of compliance..?

To be Curbed!Stood-up to! - in a word, thwarted!! - exercises The Character, makes it more pliant.

It's the want of such exercise that makes rulers rigid.

The Mind must Cure.

My patients Work, Sir - and in so-doing, acquire a better conceit of them selves.


Dr. Willis: 
If the King refuses food, He will be restrained. 
If He claims to have no appetite, He will be restrained. 

If He swears and indulges in MEANINGLESS DISCOURSE... 
He will be restrained. 

If He throws off his bed-clothes, tears away His bandages, scratches at His sores, and if He does not strive EVERY day and ALWAYS towards His OWN RECOVERY

... then, He must be restrained.

George III: 
I am the King of England!!


Dr. Willis: 
NO, sir!

You are The PATIENT.
