Famous quotes containing the words king and/or records:

    I think the King is but a man, as I am. The violet smells to
    him as it doth to me.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    What a wonderful faculty is memory!—the most mysterious and inexplicable in the great riddle of life; that plastic tablet on which the Almighty registers with unerring fidelity the records of being, making it the depository of all our words, thoughts and deeds—this faithful witness against us for good or evil.
    Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)
