Famous quotes containing the words knight and/or swords:

    By a knight of ghosts and shadows
    I summon’d am to a tourney
    Ten leagues beyond the wide world’s end:
    Methinks it is no journey.
    —Unknown. Tom o’ Bedlam’s Song (l. 57–60)

    When men change swords for ledgers, and desert
    The student’s bower for gold, some fears unnamed
    I had, my Country—am I to be blamed?
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
