Famous quotes containing the words emperor and/or commissioned:

    The greater the privilege, the more hidden the arrogance. The Emperor of China need not exist.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    He crafted his writing and loved listening to those tiny explosions when the active brutality of verbs in revolution raced into sweet established nouns to send marching across the page a newly commissioned army of words-on-maneuvers, all decorated in loops, frets, and arrowlike flourishes.
    Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)
