Earth Empire

Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or empire:

    “Christ, the Lord is ris’n to Day,”
    Sons of Men and Angels say,
    Raise your Joys and Triumphs high,
    Sing ye Heav’ns, and Earth reply.
    Charles Wesley (1707–1788)

    It has never occurred to me to wish for empire or royalty, nor for the eminence of those high and commanding fortunes. My aim lies not in that direction; I love myself too well.
