Gilgamesh, whither are you wandering? Life which you look for you will never find. For when the gods created man, they let death be his share and withheld life in their own hands. Immortality, you're not going to find it, Gilgamesh. But we also have a social class that has emerged. It's important who you are when you're born. So of course at the top of that pyramid are going to be the leaders, the rulers, the kings, the strong men of society.
