Abstract

There is a story of a King of Spain who, after making futile attempts to make his subjects fit a common mold so as to be easily governable, gave up his task and became a clock collector. He gathered clocks of every type, shape, and size, from the four corners of the earth. Then he set himself to the task, again a futile one, of making them all tick at exactly the same time. He failed a second time and on his deathbed said: "What a fool I was to try to make my people do what even my clocks refused to do."
