Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or palaces:

    High from the summit of a craggy cliff,
    Hung o’er the deep, such as amazing frowns
    On utmost Kilda’s shore, whose lonely race
    Resign the setting sun to Indian worlds,
    The royal eagle draws his vigorous young
    James Thomson (1700–1748)

    We are born each morning, shelled upon
    A sheet of light that paves
    The palaces of sight, and brings again
    The river shining through the field of graves.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
