 | | <b>Nicholasb> was a deeply religious and generally solitary person, who loved the faithful companionship of his dogs to the company of state ministers. |  | | <b>Nicholasb> became cynical and mistrustful of human nature. |  | | He found it impossible to reconcile his own strict views of what was right and wrong for Russia with the responsibility of a modern monarch to compromise his own views for the good of the nation. |
