Crowned King

Famous quotes containing the words crowned and/or king:

    Alas! when Virtue sits high aloft on a frigate’s poop, when Virtue is crowned in the cabin of a Commodore, when Virtue rules by compulsion, and domineers over Vice as a slave, then Virtue, though her mandates be outwardly observed, bears little interior sway.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    The King o’ Scots, and a’ his power
    Canna turn Arthur O’Bower.
    Unknown. The Wind (l. 3–4)
