Famous quotes containing the words swear and/or allegiance:
“I swear to the Lord
I still can’t see
Why Democracy means
Everybody but me.”

And dressed myself in such humility
That I did pluck allegiance from men’s hearts,
Loud shouts and salutations from their mouths,
Even in the presence of the crowned King.”
