Famous quotes containing the words lord, chief and/or justice:

    I stretch lame hands of faith, and grope,
    And gather dust and chaff, and call
    To what I feel is Lord of all,
    And faintly trust the larger hope.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    ‘You’re wounded!’ ‘Nay,’ his soldier’s pride
    Touched to the quick, he said:
    ‘I’m killed, Sire!’ And his Chief beside,
    Smiling the boy fell dead.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    So the people will pay the penalty for their kings’ presumption, who, by devising evil, turn justice from her path with tortuous speech.
    Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
