King Power

Famous quotes containing the words king and/or power:

    I am as unfit for any practical purpose—I mean for the furtherance of the world’s ends—as gossamer for ship-timber; and I, who am going to be a pencil-maker to-morrow, can sympathize with God Apollo, who served King Admetus for a while on earth.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    My most desire my hand may reach,
    My will is alway at my hand;
    Me need not long for to beseech
    Her that hath power me to command.
    Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)
