Famous quotes containing the words king and/or called:
“Time’s the king of men;

And gives them what he will, not what they crave.”

“True, there are architects so called in this country, and I have heard of one at least possessed with the idea of making architectural ornaments have a core of truth, a necessity, and hence a beauty, as if it were a revelation to him. All very well perhaps from his point of view, but only a little better than the common dilettantism.”
