Famous quotes containing the words strikes and/or king:
“Pan’s Syrinx was a girl indeed,
Though now she’s turned into a reed;
From that dear reed Pan’s pipe does come,
A pipe that strikes Apollo dumb;
Nor flute, nor lute, nor gittern can
So chant it, as the pipe of Pan;”
—John Lyly (1553–1606)
“Time’s the king of men;
He’s both their parent and he is their grave,
And gives them what he will, not what they crave.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
