Famous quotes containing the words noble and/or lords:

    “The Moor—howbeit that I endure him not—

    And I dare think he’ll prove to Desdemona
    A most dear husband.”

    “The lords of life, the lords of life,—
    I saw them pass
    In their own guise,
    Like and unlike,
    Portly and grim,—
    Use and surprise,
    Surface and dream,
    Succession swift, and spectral wrong,
    Temperament without a tongue,
    And the inventor of the game
    Omnipresent without name;—”
