Empire Sweet

Famous quotes containing the words empire and/or sweet:

    “So farewell hope, and with hope, farewell fear,
    Farewell remorse! All good to me is lost;
    Evil, be thou my Good: by thee at least

    By thee, and more than half perhaps will reign;
    As Man ere long, and this new World, shall know.””
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    after the sweet of Eros.””
