"The character and position of Louis XIV are peculiarly difficult to estimate, partly on account of the attitude taken towards him during his life-time by his own subjects, partly owing to the entire misapprehension under which foreign nations laboured as to his real aims. The French people during more than two-thirds of his long reign made him into a god and worshipped him, while at the time of the Spanish Succession war a generation had grown up in England which regarded Louis XIV as a monster of ambition with a mission from the devil to make slaves and Papists of the whole human race, a perfidious tyrant Louis has certainly as great a claim as Napoleon to be considered a hero. He, at any rate, left his country holding a powerful position in Europe, and when he died he could boast that his foes had never entered Paris" - Arthur Hassall
