Richard, King of Almaine, Earl of Cornwall and Holy Roman Emperor:

quote: Richard, created Earl of Cornwall by his older brother Henry III, was the second son of King John and named after his uncle King Richard I, the Lionheart. In 1240 he led a crusade to the Holy Land and in 1257 he was elected King of the Germans (Almayne) in Aachen. He was thus emperor-elect of the Holy Roman Empire, the successor to Charlemagne, but the title had little real meaning since his rival Alfonso X of Castile had also been elected German King, and his election was never confirmed by the Pope.

The dastardly Richard Rich:


Richard Rich, 1st Baron Rich
born c. 1496, , London, England
died June 12, 1567, Rochford, Essex

quote: A powerful minister to England's King Henry VIII and lord chancellor during most of the reign of King Edward VI. Although he participated in the major events of his time, Rich was more a civil servant than a politician; by shifting his allegiances he continually came out on the winning side in political and religious struggles.

In the Fred Zinneman film 'A Man For All Seasons', about Sir Thomas More, he was played by John Hurt.

Good morning, Mr. Grant.

Who can turn the world on
With her smile?
Who can take a nothing day,
And suddenly make it all seem worthwhile?

Well, it's you girl and you should know it.
With every little glace and movement you show it.
Love is all around, no need to fake it.
Love is all around, cummon and take it.
You're going to make it after all!"
