Conquers Egypt

Famous quotes containing the words conquers and/or egypt:

    Man know thy powers, and not observe thy size,
    The noble power in piercing reason lies,
    And reason conquers all, and rules the skies.
    Marcus Manilius (10 B.C.–A.D. 30)

    The great pagan world of which Egypt and Greece were the last living terms ... once had a vast and perhaps perfect science of its own, a science in terms of life. In our era this science crumbled into magic and charlatanry. But even wisdom crumbles.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
