What does A professed tyrant to their sex mean?
'Being a professed tyrant to their sex' is a quote from William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing. Said of the character Benedick, he pretends to just want to sleep with (tyrant) women (their sex) and never fall in love or marry. By saying he is a professed tyrant it means that he is saying this outright, professing it to the world, but critics believe this is over compensating, as it is his persona to cover his love for Beatrice.
What does the tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny mean?

How does a tyrant seize total power?
You're asking how does a tyrant become a despot. Please be aware that a tyrant is simply a cruel ruler marked by mercilessness. A ruler who maintains total power is a despot. How a tyrant becomes a despot is as varied as those who have been despots. Not all tyrants manage to obtain total power over their country. One of the most general examples of a tyrant is Pol Pot, and he did not have total power. While Pot had a great deal of power, the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia. They did so under the leadership of Pot, but Pot never had total power. Perhaps the best example of a tyrant who managed to acquire near total power was Joseph Stalin of the Soviet Union. Stalin was known for simply making those who disagreed with him dead. Stalin is credited with between 50 million and 150 million deaths during his reign as the Supreme Soviet. That vagary in numbers is a strong indication of just how much power he had, but not even Stalin was a true despot.
