Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or forests:
“Not to these shores she came! this other Thrace,
Environ barbarous to the royal Attic;
How could her delicate dirge run democratic,
Delivered in a cloudless boundless public place
To an inordinate race?”
—John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
“What forests of laurel we bring, and the tears of mankind, to those who stood firm against the opinion of their contemporaries!”
