"This is sort of what Aristotle says about tyrants. In The Politics, Aristotle's giving essentially advice to tyrants on how to protect themselves because tyrants are usually hated and are killed in coups. And he says, essentially, how do you manage to secure yourself when you're a tyrant? Well, you can start by maybe obeying the laws or making sure that your subjects obey the laws, and essentially he's telling them to kind of become benevolent kings."
