Exchequer Court

Famous quotes containing the words exchequer and/or court:

    Evermore thanks, the exchequer of the poor.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Universal empire is the prerogative of a writer. His concerns are with all mankind, and though he cannot command their obedience, he can assign them their duty. The Republic of Letters is more ancient than monarchy, and of far higher character in the world than the vassal court of Britain.
    Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
