Kingdom Period

Famous quotes containing the words kingdom and/or period:

    A box of teak, a box of sandalwood,
    A brass-ringed spyglass in a case,
    A coin, leaf-thin with many polishings,
    Last kingdom of a gold forgotten face,
    These lie about the room....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    There is a period in the history of the individual, as of the race, when the hunters are the “best men,” as the Algonquins called them.
