Babylonian Empire

Famous quotes containing the words babylonian and/or empire:

    Their martyred blood and ashes sow
    O’er all the Italian fields where still doth sway
    The triple tyrant; that from these may grow
    A hundredfold, who, having learnt thy way,
    Early may fly the Babylonian woe.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    Passivity can be a provoking modus operandi;
    Consider the Empire and Gandhi.
