Famous quotes containing the word empire:
“So farewell hope, and with hope, farewell fear,
Farewell remorse! All good to me is lost;
Evil, be thou my Good: by thee at least
Divided empire with Heavens King I hold,
By thee, and more than half perhaps will reign;
As Man ere long, and this new World, shall know.”
—John Milton (16081674)
