Quote

“For me, nobility is not an obligation at all: I am myself. I admire my ancestors who did great things, but I think it would be absurd that I should look better now or prove myself more. If I manage my life as well as possible, whether my name is Hohenlohe or something else, there is no difference. I find this thinking rather outdated. "
