King Called

Famous quotes containing the words king and/or called:

    The old Romans all wished to have a king over them because they had not yet tasted the sweetness of freedom.
    Titus Livius (Livy)

    Latin America is very fond of the word “hope.” We like to be called the “continent of hope.” Candidates for deputy, senator, president, call themselves “candidates of hope.” This hope is really something like a promise of heaven, an IOU whose payment is always being put off. It is put off until the next legislative campaign, until next year, until the next century.
    Pablo Neruda (1904–1973)
