Famous quotes containing the word king:

    If the king is in the palace, nobody looks at the walls. It is when he is gone, and the house is filled with grooms and gazers, that we turn from the people, to find relief in the majestic men that are suggested by the pictures and the architecture.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
