Wasn't he also the Biche donator? Or was that German Rothenburg? Anyway, yes, him, too.
Valory to Rottembourg: Granted, I only met him once he was on the throne, but seriously? I shudder to think what he'd have been like with absolute power at age 14!
All the Ambassadors from FW's era except Seckendorf: But he's so sensitive, so smart, so abused! We want to adopt him and cherish him!
Seckendorf: ...yeah, well, no. Some cash, that's as far as I'm willing to go, and will I get any thanks for it? No. First he bitches about me in "History of the House of Brandenburg", and then he kidnaps me in my retirement. All just because I ensured he didn't get married to an English princess, which, given the rest of his life, really, what's the problem there?
All the Ambassadors from Fritz' era except Charles Williams: Okay, he is very charming when first you meet him, but then you better be up for verbal fencing, and good lord, that poetry.
Charles Williams (pre 1756): He sucks. Listen to me, young Stanislav: that man's an overrated asshole. Charles Williams (1756): I'm entering the third stage of syphilis and also Prussia has just become our ally. I therefore turn my opinion on the King of Prussia around by 180 degrees and declare him a total genius and wonderful. I even kiss his portrait.
