Unfortunately, there was then at Berlin a King who pursued one policy only, who deceived his enemies, but not his servants, and who lied without scruple, but never without necessity.

(from The King's Secret - by Duke de Broglie, grand-nephew of the subject of the book, Comte de Broglie, and grandfather of the physicist) )

No, I didn't write that! As for rare RPF, I would love some BPC/O'Sullivan, based on the latter's memoirs. But it's not somethng that would really work to request for Yuletide, given that when I bought those memoirs, it was the only copy for sale on the whole internets that I could find! I mean, yes, there's university libraries, but still. I'll probably have to write it myself at some point.
