Lord Faithful Emperor

Famous quotes containing the words lord, faithful and/or emperor:

    I stretch lame hands of faith, and grope,
    And gather dust and chaff, and call
    To what I feel is Lord of all,
    And faintly trust the larger hope.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    There is a Book
    By seraphs writ with beams of heavenly light,
    On which the eyes of God not rarely look,

    A chronicle of actions just and bright—
    There all thy deeds, my faithful Mary, shine;
    And since thou own’st that praise, I spare thee mine.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)

    The greater the privilege, the more hidden the arrogance. The Emperor of China need not exist.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
