Thousand Realms

Famous quotes containing the words thousand and/or realms:

“Was this the face that launched a thousand ships,
And burnt the topless towers of Ilium?
Sweet Helen, make me immortal with a kiss.—
Her lips suck forth my soul; see where it flies!—
Come, Helen, come, give me my soul again.
Here will I dwell, for heaven be in these lips,
And all is dross that is not Helena.”
—Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

“Here thou, great Anna! whom three realms obey,
Dost sometimes counsel take—and sometimes tea.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
