He has exerted the vengeance of history upon the emperors, but has veiled the conspiracies against them, and the incorrigible corruption of the people which probably provoked their most atrocious cruelties. Tyranny can scarcely be practised upon a virtuous and wise people.”
“I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.”
“Where there have been powerful governments, societies, religions, public opinions, in short wherever there has been tyranny, there the solitary philosopher has been hated; for philosophy offers an asylum to a man into which no tyranny can force it way, the inward cave, the labyrinth of the heart.”
“Unlimited power is apt to corrupt the minds of those who possess it; and this I know, my Lords, that where law ends tyranny begins!”
“The English monster, the center of mischief, a shame to the British Chronicle, a pattern for tyranny, murder and hypocrisie, whose bloody Tyranny will quite drown the name of Nero, Caligula, Domitian, having at last attained the height of his Ambition, for Five years space he wallowed in the blood of many Gallant and Heroick Persons.”
“The sovereign is called a tyrant who knows no laws but his caprice.”

Galactus es un personaje ficticio que aparece en los cómics estadounidenses publicados por Marvel Comics. Anteriormente un hombre mortal, es una entidad cósmica que consume planetas para sostener su fuerza vital, y cumple un rol funcional en el mantenimiento de la continuidad principal de Marvel. Fue creado por Stan Lee y Jack Kirby y apareció por primera vez en Fantastic Four #48. Lee y Kirby querían introducir un personaje que rompiera con el arquetipo del villano estándar. En la primera aparición del personaje, Galactus fue representado como una figura similar a un dios que se alimentaba drenando la energía de planetas vivos, y operaba sin tener en cuenta la moralidad o los juicios de los seres mortales.
