Famous quotes containing the words sun and/or kings:
“I was not much afeard; for once or twice
I was about to speak, and tell him plainly,
The selfsame sun that shines upon his court
Hides not his visage from our cottage, but
Looks on alike.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“It is, said Gargantua, as Plato said ... that republics will be happy when kings philosophize or philosophers reign.”
