Famous quotes containing the word palace:

    The homely Nurse doth all she can
    To make her Foster-child, her Inmate Man,
    Forget the glories he hath known,
    And that imperial palace whence he came.

    For the Christ-child who comes is the Master of all;
    No palace too great, no cottage too small.
