No decision is so fine as to not bind us to its consequences.
No consequence is so unexpected as to absolve us of our decisions.

Karl Friedrich, Grand Duke of Baden ruled for 73 years and 29 days.

In case you don't consider him a true monarch, the next in line would be Louis XIV of France, who ruled for 72 years and 110 days.

And he's back in the running.

I don't and you're right, it is. It was Louis XIV I was thinking about.

The sign divides muslims and non-muslims on the road to Mecca.
Richard Francis Burton made the pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina disguised as a muslim although he wasn't one.

Good enough?
