“The vassal of your vassal is not your vassal.”

I don’t expect you to understand this line or it to have any meaning for you. For me though it’s the one sentence I remember from my history class in high school. That was around 15 years ago. Give or take. And I still remember it. Vividly. With details and everything. I hear the tone of my teachers voice as she was saying it (great teacher, by the way). I know what time of day it was. I remember the lighting in the room. And what kind of clothes she wore. I don’t know why is this particular sentence the one that I still remember. It is nothing special. I has no connotations for me. I don’t know how I managed to remember it so well but I did. My memory can obviously be quite amazing….I wish it was under my terms though…but eventually I hope I’ll get there… :)
