Small natures require despotism to exercise their sinews, as great souls thirst for equality to give play to their heart.

Summary

This quote suggests that individuals with lesser ambitions and abilities tend to thrive in circumstances where there is a dominant and controlling authority or ruler. Such individuals find strength and purpose when their actions are dictated by a despotic leader. On the other hand, those with strong moral fiber and higher aspirations prefer to be part of a society that values equality and fairness, enabling them to express themselves freely and holistically contribute to the well-being of others.
