Imperial Blue

Famous quotes containing the words imperial and/or blue:

    When your fathers fixed the place of GOD,
    And settled all the inconvenient saints,
    Apostles, martyrs, in a kind of Whipsnade,
    Then they could set about imperial expansion
    Accompanied by industrial development.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The old brown hen and the old blue sky,
    Between the two we live and die
    The broken cartwheel on the hill.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
