Death gestured with his hands and bade the king thrice welcome.
--
Book VIII, line 168Nikos Kazantzakis
» Nikos Kazantzakis - all quotes »
Sooth'd with the sound, the king grew vain;
Fought all his battles o'er again;
And thrice he routed all his foes, and thrice he slew the slain.John Dryden
Insatiate archer! could not one suffice?
Thy shaft flew thrice, and thrice my peace was slain;
And thrice, ere thrice yon moon had filled her horn.Edward Young
So sweetly she bade me adieu,
I thought that she bade me return.William Shenstone
Think about it- the King James Bible took religion out of the hands of the high priests and put it in to the hands of the people. An entire generation became literate just to be able to read the King James version of the Bible.
Andy (author) Kessler
If a king is energetic, his subjects will be equally energetic. If he is reckless, they will not only be reckless likewise, but also eat into his works. Besides, a reckless king will easily fall into the hands of his enemies. Hence the king shall ever be wakeful.
