Confuse never, a leader who is despotically feared, say like the king of Sudia Arabia, to a leader who is universally admired for his humility; say like Nelson Mandela, for the moment the former dies, as the source of whatever honor he gets (namely fear) has died with him, not only is he forgotten, he is reviled; while the moment the latter dies, they become the stuff of legendary saints!
