Crowned Ruler

Famous quotes containing the words crowned and/or ruler:

    And then I stole all courtesy from heaven,
    And dressed myself in such humility
    That I did pluck allegiance from men’s hearts,
    Loud shouts and salutations from their mouths,
    Even in the presence of the crowned King.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    A scholar, in his Segmenta, left a note,
    As follows, “The Ruler of Reality,
    If more unreal than New Haven, is not
    A real ruler, but rules what is unreal.”
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
