Quote by G. W. F. Hegel
The Few assume to be the deputies, but they are often only the despoilers of the Many.
Summary
This quote suggests that a select group of individuals, "The Few," often claim to act as representatives or leaders of the majority, "The Many." However, the quote points out that these few individuals may not truly have the best interests of the majority in mind. Instead, they may exploit or take advantage of the many for their own gain or benefit. It emphasizes the idea that those in positions of power must be mindful of their actions and ensure they are truly acting in the best interests of the people they claim to represent.
