Tomb Kings

Famous quotes containing the words tomb and/or kings:

    “Some sepulcher, remote, alone,
    Against whose portal she hath thrown,
    In childhood, many an idle stone—
    Some tomb from out whose sounding door
    She ne’er shall force an echo more,
    Thrilling to think, poor child of sin!
    It was the dead who groaned within.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “We have not overthrown the divine right of kings to fall down for the divine right of experts.”
    —Harold MacMillan (1894–1986)
