Famous quotes containing the words morris and/or graves:

    Without the Empire we should be tossed like a cork in the cross current of world politics. It is at once our sword and our shield.
    —William Morris Hughes (1864–1952)

    In the most high and palmy state of Rome,
    A little ere the mightiest Julius fell,
    The graves stood tenantless and the sheeted dead
    Did squeak and gibber in the Roman streets.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
