3 quotes

  1. All men would be tyrants if they could.

  2. And of all plagues with which mankind are cursed, Ecclesiastic tyranny's the worst.

  3. When kings the sword of justice first lay down, They are no kings, though they possess the crown. Titles are shadows, crowns are empty things, The good of subjects is the end of kings.
