Famous quotes containing the words city and/or leader:
“Lo! Death has reared himself a throne
In a strange city lying alone
Far down within the dim West,
Where the good and the bad and the worst and the best
Have gone to their eternal rest.”

Their leader in a different dialect stated
A war was on for which he was to blame,
And he must help them.”
