Famous quotes containing the words imperial and/or restaurant:
“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)
“A restaurant with candles and flowers evokes more reveries than the Isle of Bali does.”
