Famous quotes containing the word palace:

    It ain’t home t’ ye, though it be the palace of a king,
    Until somehow yer soul is sort o’ wrapped round everything.
    Edgar Albert Guest (1881–1959)

    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)
