Kingdom

Famous quotes containing the word kingdom:

“Many a reformer perishes in his removal of rubbish,—and that makes the offensiveness of the class. They are partial; they are not equal to the work they pretend. They lose their way; in the assault on the kingdom of darkness, they expend all their energy on some accidental evil, and lose their sanity and power of benefit.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Women, more than all, are the element and kingdom of illusion. Being fascinated, they fascinate.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Boredom is the legitimate kingdom of the philanthropic.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
