Famous quotes containing the words ancient and/or temples:

    “But ancient insolence is wont to bear an insolence that has its youth among human miseries, sooner or later, when the fixed time of birth is come.”
    —Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    “Within the hollow crown
    That rounds the mortal temples of a king
    Keeps Death his court, and there the antic sits,
    Scoffing his state and mocking at his pomp,
    Allowing him a breath, a little scene,
    To monarchize, be feared, and kill with looks.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
