+Well, everybody's got a dog.  The prime minister is the king's dog.  The
+first secretary is the prime minister's dog.  A wife is a husband's dog,
+or a husband is a wife's dog.  Favourite is Madame So-and-so's dog and
+Thibaut is the man on the corner's dog.  When my Master tells me to talk
+when I'd prefer not to, which to be honest doesn't happen very often,
+when he tells me to shut up when I feel like talking, which I find very
+difficult, when he asks me to tell the story of my love-life and then
+keeps interrupting, what am I if not his dog?  Weak men are the dogs of
+strong men.
