Famous quotes containing the words king and/or coal:

    “The lion cares less about being king of the beasts than about finding his dinner.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Coal is a portable climate. It carries the heat of the tropics to Labrador and the polar circle; and it is the means of transporting itself whithersoever it is wanted. Watt and Stephenson whispered in the ear of mankind their secret, that a half-ounce of coal will draw two tons a mile, and coal carries coal, by rail and by boat, to make Canada as warm as Calcutta, and with its comfort brings its industrial power.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
