I tell a story about that with Truman in the book.
Truman was famous for mentioning mispronouncing words.
And people would make fun of him.
And then somebody realized, oh, it's because he grew up not around a lot of smart people.
He didn't have a traditional education.
He'd never heard these words said aloud.
He'd only read them.
And I always consider that a badge of honor.
That means I'm like reaching.
It means I'm punching above my weight.
And so I love that.
Yeah, it's Marcus Aurelius.
Well, I mean, look, he's the chief executive of the largest empire in the history of the world.
He oversaw something like 50 million people, thousands, tens of thousands of square miles.
It was enormous.
He was the most powerful, important person in the world.
And he struggled, as I think we all do.
I mean, his reign was an unending series of troubles.
There was floods.
There was a plague.
