"There are men, in all ages, who mean to exercise power usefully; but who mean to exercise it. They mean to govern well; but they mean to govern. They promise to be kind masters; but they mean to be masters." Daniel Webster

RIP Skandor Akbar

I vaguely remember his run in Georgia in the 1970s, but I got to see a lot of him as a manager in Texas and Oklahoma in the 1980s when Channel 46 carried those shows.

From everything I've read he was very respected by his peers. But I never could get past the fact that this Middle Eastern bad guy had a thick Texas accent.
