Quote by Christopher Hitchens
Only a humorless tyrant could want a perpetual chanting of praises that, one has no choice but to assume, would be the innate virtues and splendors furnished him by his creator, infinite regression, drowned in praise!
Summary
This quote suggests that only a cruel and dictatorial individual would desire constant admiration and praise, which would likely be attributed to their supposed inherent qualities bestowed upon them by their higher power. It portrays this desire for endless praise as ludicrous and self-indulgent, emphasizing the absurdity of the expectation and mocking the potential endless cycle of self-validation.
