Famous quotes containing the words bishop and/or palace:

    Apparently they have reached their destination.
    It would be hard to say what brought them there,
    commerce or contemplation.
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    In correct theology, the Virgin ought not to be represented in bed, for she could not suffer like ordinary women, but her palace at Chartres is not much troubled by theology, and to her, as empress-mother, the pain of child-birth was a pleasure which she wanted her people to share.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
