Despite the Soviet harassment, Tito and his people did not cave in. What is more, Tito refused to denounce his brand of Marxism.

As the King of Beasts declined in strength, the story goes, the lesser animals trooped up to his cave, no longer subservient. The boar attacked him with his tusks; the bull gored him; even the ass, feeling quite safe, kicked up his heels and brayed. "Ah," sighed the failing King, "thus dies majesty."
