Sleepy Hollow, Season 4 (2017)

Malcolm Dreyfuss:
Do you know what I've come to learn over the years, Mister Crane? People, by and large, people are herd animals. When it comes right down to it, most people really don't want to bear the burden of governing themselves. Deep down, most people are violently opposed to the effort it takes to think for themselves. Do you know what all of the helpless, bleating sheep really want, more than anything else? A shepherd.

Ichabod Crane You mean tyrant.

Malcolm Dreyfuss:
Actually, I prefer emperor. Czar, perhaps? Monarch, maybe. Whatever rolls off the tongue.
