Explanation: Interestingly enough, one of the big controversies of Julius Caesar’s dictatorship was that he was granted the right to use a curule chair - a kind of ornate folding chair/stool used by government officials when conducting business - nearly everywhere which was an unprecedented honor - including in the Senate (the usage usually being more limited to prevent any official from appearing more important than their peers). Accounts vary wildly as to Caesar’s behavior on the chair - some accused him of arrogance, refusing to rise and greet Senators as equals - others claim that Caesar rose in all cases except when he was interrupted in doing so.

Does this tyrant sit upon a throne?? Or does a man passing his prime just want to rest his weary body?
