Famous quotes containing the words rebel and/or king:
““... Rebel against the flesh and bone,
The word of the blood, the wily skin,
And the maggot no man can slay.””
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
“But the lightning which explodes and fashions planets, maker of planets and suns, is in him. On one side elemental order, sandstone and granite, rock-ledges, peat-bog, forest, sea and shore; and on the other part, thought, the spirit which composes and decomposes nature,—here they are, side by side, god and devil, mind and matter, king and conspirator, belt and spasm, riding peacefully together in the eye and brain of every man.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
