Perhaps one of the only positive pieces of advice that I was ever given was that supplied by an old courtier who observed: Only two rules really count. Never miss an opportunity to relieve yourself; never miss a chance to sit down and rest your feet. ↗

When you have an entire amphitheatre of people laughing that way, it makes you feel so funny and it frees you to go further than you probably would. ↗
