Famous quotes containing the words time and/or lords:
“The purpose of playing, whose end, both at the first and now,
was and is, to hold as twere the mirror up to nature: to show

body of the time his form and pressure.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“The lords of life, the lords of life,
I saw them pass
In their own guise,
Like and unlike,
Portly and grim,
Use and surprise,
Surface and dream,
Succession swift, and spectral wrong,
Temperament without a tongue,
And the inventor of the game
Omnipresent without name;”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
