Famous quotes containing the words imperial and/or japanese:
“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.”

My head a moon
Of Japanese paper, my gold beaten skin
Infinitely delicate and infinitely expensive.”
