Emperor Died

Famous quotes containing the words emperor and/or died:

    The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.

    The soldier takes pride in saluting his Captain,
    The devotee proffers a knee to his Lord,
    Some back a mare thrown from a thoroughbred,
    Troy backed its Helen, Troy died and adored;
    Great nations blossom above,
    A slave bows down to a slave.
