Happy 123rd Birthday to H.I.M. Emperor Haile Selassie I

The Almighty Emperor Haile Selassie I recalls…”From the age of thirteen onwards, although my physical strength may not have been great, my spiritual and intellectual powers began to increase gradually and thus had the entrance gate to this world opened. And this was the time at which I started to act on my own will, without being ordered by my tutor, distinguishing good and evil, and conscious that this action would offend others, that actions would give pleasure, this being damaging, that on the other hand useful – and thus I began to climb the ladder of introduction to the world”…
