Sun Kings

Famous quotes containing the words sun and/or kings:

    “When the sun rises, do you not see a round disc of fire somewhat like a guinea?” O no, no, I see an innumerable company of the heavenly host crying “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty.”
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    All I say is, kings is kings, and you got to make allowances. Take them all around, they’re a mighty ornery lot. It’s the way they’re raised.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
