Imperial Dignity

Famous quotes containing the words imperial and/or dignity:

    When your fathers fixed the place of GOD,
    And settled all the inconvenient saints,
    Apostles, martyrs, in a kind of Whipsnade,
    Then they could set about imperial expansion
    Accompanied by industrial development.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    ... ostentatious dining has little dignity about it, although the combination is possible.
    M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)
