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)

    The mob in silence leaves their prince’s side,
    And to the coming ruler gives its love,
    And is with mobs the custom.
    Publius Papinius Statius (c. 40–96)
