'Tis but a Tent where takes his one day's rest
A Sultan to the realm of Death addrest;
The Sultan rises, and the dark Ferrash
Strikes, and prepares it for another Guest.Omar Khayyam
Wake! For the Sun, who scatter'd into flight
The Stars before him from the Field of Night,
Drives Night along with them from Heav'n, and strikes
The Sultan's Turret with a Shaft of Light.Omar Khayyam
Sultan Aladdin… had few illusions about his own people: amiable, well-favoured, courteous, they loved rest better than industry… their function was to remind the toiling Chinese, Indians and British of the ultimate vanity of labour.
Anthony Burgess
I have little fear of God, of the Sultan nothing at all, and of the Vizier I am afraid as much as of my own horse.
Husein Gradascevic
Let me assure the Sultan and the three hundred million moslems... That the German Emperor will ever be their friend.
Wilhelm II of Germany
In my judgment, my buildings are less likely to burn to the ground during one of your visits if you are disoriented from being treated like a sultan.
