Only kings, presidents, editors, and people with tapeworms have the right to use the editorial we.

Summary

This quote humorously emphasizes how certain individuals believe they have the authority to use the pronoun "we" when expressing an opinion or making statements. It suggests that only kings, presidents, powerful figures like editors, or those constantly hungry (metaphorically represented by tapeworms) are given this privilege. By using satire, the quote highlights the arrogance and exclusivity sometimes associated with using the editorial "we" to signify authority or superiority.
