What can I do?

" Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis

mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony."

"Well you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some
watery tart threw a sword at you! I mean, if I went around sayin' I was an
emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'
d put me away!" -Monty Pyton, More from the same scene.

Ahhh... now we see the violence inherent in the system!
