Universal Monarch

Famous quotes containing the words universal and/or monarch:

“There isn’t any universal reason;
And no one but a man would think there was.
You don’t catch women trying to be Plato.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“I am monarch of all I survey;
My right there is none to dispute;
From the center all round to the sea
I am lord of the fowl and the brute.
O Solitude! where are the charms
That sages have seen in thy face?
Better dwell in the midst of alarms,
Than reign in this horrible place.”
—William Cowper (1731–1800)
