Famous quotes containing the words elder and/or king:
“So doth, so is Religion; and this blind-
ness too much light breeds; but unmoved thou
Of force must one, and forc’d but one allow;
And the right; ask thy father which is she,
let him ask his; though truth and falsehood be
Near twins, yet truth a little elder is;”
—John Donne (1572–1631)
“There is no king or sovereign state
That can fix a hero’s rate;
Each to all is venerable.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
