Peter III of Russia
Peter III Fyodorovich was Emperor of Russia from 5 January 1762 until 9 July of the same year, when his wife, Catherine II, overthrew him in a palace coup d'état. He implemented many notable reforms during his reign, though he is criticised for undoing Russian gains in the Seven Years' War by forming an alliance with Prussia.

“Pokochałabym mego męża, gdyby choć tylko on choć trochę chciał lub potrafił dać się kochać. Lecz w pierwszych dniach mego małżeństwa doszłam do kilku gorzkich wniosków na jego temat. Powiedziałam sobie: „Jeżeli pokochasz tego człowieka, staniesz się najbardziej żałosną istotą na ziemi. Uważaj. Co się tyczy uczuć do tego jegomościa, myśl raczej o sobie, madame.”

“Gdyby chciał być kochany, nie byłoby to dla mnie trudne. Jestem bowiem z natury skłonna i przyzwyczajona do tego, aby wypełniać swoje obowiązki. Jednak musiałabym mieć męża posiadającego zdrowy rozsądek, a tego wielki książę, niestety, nie posiada.”
