And when a man inferior or even ordinary abilities tries to exercise power of so many worlds and so many billions of people, the result is the tyranny, chaos, ignorance, greed, or hatred that we have already seen too often. Some like to hark back to the creed of the 20th century, proclaiming that all democracies are inherently good and all aristocratic oligarchies inherently evil. It is my belief, however, that only a stable aristocracy exercising authority over manageable areas of our Federated Suns can hope to blend the decisiveness of central rule with flexibility and freedom. It is not the system of government that will be good or bad, but rather the people who wield power within it. Did not my late, unlamented cousins take supreme power on the basis of a system that grew out of a democratic form of government?''|Simon Davion, from a speech to the High Council, [[2417]]<ref name="HD(TFS)p32">''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 32: "Time of Crisis"</ref>}} − − ==Gallery== − <gallery> − Simon Davion HDTFS p34.jpg|Simon from ''[[House Davion (The Federated Suns)|House Davion]]'' − Simon Davion HDTFS p30.jpg|Simon from ''House Davion'' − </gallery> − − ==References== − <references /> − − ==Bibliography== − * ''[[Handbook: House Davion]]'' − * ''[[House Davion (The Federated Suns)]]'' − * ''[[Nothing Ventured|Nothing Ventured (Proliferation, Part III)]]'' (short story) − − [[Category:Federated Suns Characters|Davion, Simon]] [[Category:First Princes|Davion, Simon]] [[Category:First Princes|Davion, Simon]] − [[Category:Federated Suns Rulers]]
