Famous quotes containing the words king and/or cave:

    Thy great leaves enfold
    The ancient beards, the helms of ruby and gold
    Of the crowned Magi; and the king whose eyes
    Saw the Pierced Hands and Rood of elder rise
    In Druid vapour and make the torches dim....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Under the one word “house” are included the schoolhouse, the almshouse, the jail, the tavern, the dwellinghouse; and the meanest shed or cave in which men live contains elements of all these. But nowhere on the earth stands the entire and perfect house.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
