Famous quotes containing the words empire and/or sweet:
“Passivity can be a provoking modus operandi;
Consider the Empire and Gandhi.”

“I thought of a mound in sweet Auburn
Where a little headstone stood;
How the flakes were folding it gently,
As did robins the babes in the wood.
Up spoke our own little Mabel,
Saying, “Father, who makes it snow?”
And I told of the good All-father
Who cares for us here below.”
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
