The following is a Quote of what his Excellency's motto is:
"My motto, Noblesse Oblige, expresses my belief
that those with talents, skills, and rank have an obligation to
use these advantages in the service of those around them. In a
time when the SCA is often rife with terms like Royal Authority,
Kingdom Law, and Ducal Prerogative, I think
we need to spend more time discussing Noblesse Oblige."
