Crowned Ruler

Famous quotes containing the words crowned and/or ruler:

    Behold then Septimus Dodge returning to Dodge-town victorious. Not crowned with laurel, it is true, but wreathed in lists of things he has seen and sucked dry. Seen and sucked dry, you know: Venus de Milo, the Rhine or the Coloseum: swallowed like so many clams, and left the shells.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Know yourself and fit yourself to new fashions. For there is a new ruler among the gods.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
