Famous quotes containing the words medieval, royal and/or palace:

    “The medieval university looked backwards; it professed to be a storehouse of old knowledge.... The modern university looks forward, and is a factory of new knowledge.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)

    “These are not the artificial forests of an English king,—a royal preserve merely. Here prevail no forest laws but those of nature. The aborigines have never been dispossessed, nor nature disforested.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “You weep, you weep for the sun an Image.
    ...
    the wind calls hideously,
    woe for the children’s fate,
    woe for a palace rent,
    woe, woe for these who spent
    life-blood
    in hate.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
