Absolute: Independent, irresponsible. An absolute monarchy is one in which
the sovereign does as he pleases so long as he pleases the assassins. Not

limited monarchies, where the sovereign's power for evil (and for good) is
greatly curtailed, and by republics, which are governed by chance.
-- Ambrose Bierce
