[Footnote 1273: M. de Metternich, I., 284. "One of those to whom he
seemed the most attached was Duroc. 'He loves me the same as a dog loves
his master,' is the phrase he made use of in speaking of him to me. He
compared Berthier's sentiment for his person to that of a child's nurse.
Far from being opposed to his theory of the motives influencing men
these sentiments were its natural consequence whenever he came across
sentiments to which he could not apply the theory of calculation based
on cold interest, he sought the cause of it in a kind of instinct."]

Christianity, and the Pope would have only been president of them."]
