Imperial Guard Members

Famous quotes containing the words imperial, guard and/or members:

    Fair tresses man’s imperial race ensnare,
    And beauty draws us with a single hair.

    I loved. And a man will guard when he loves.
    Their white-gowned democracy was my fair lady.
    With her knife lying cold, straight, in the softness of her sweet-flowing sleeve.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Man is more disposed to domination than freedom; and a structure of dominion not only gladdens the eye of the master who rears and protects it, but even its servants are uplifted by the thought that they are members of a whole, which rises high above the life and strength of single generations.
    Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)
