The man whose authority is recent is always stern. – Aeschylus
This quote by Aeschylus suggests that individuals who have recently gained authority or power often feel the need to assert themselves more forcefully in order to establish their legitimacy and control. Because their authority hasn't yet had time to mature or be recognized naturally, they may adopt a stern or strict demeanor to ensure others take them seriously and to solidify their position. This behavior can be seen as a way to compensate for their lack of established credibility or experience in their new role.
Quote By: Aeschylus
Aeschylus (circa 525/524 – 456/455 BCE) was an ancient Greek playwright and is often referred to as the "Father of Tragedy" for his significant contributions to the development of theatrical drama. He is best known for his trilogy, the "Oresteia," which explores themes of justice, vengeance, and the evolution of moral order in society. Aeschylus is credited with introducing innovations such as the second actor, which allowed for more complex interactions within plays, thereby transforming the nature of storytelling in theater.
