Tamburlaine the Great

Quotes

Nay, could their number countervail the stars,
Or ever-drizzling drops of April showers,
Or withered leaves that Autumn shaketh down,
Yet would the Soldan by his conquering power
So scatter and consume them in his rage
That not a man should live to rue their fall.

Quoted on January 15, 2014

A wound is nothing, be it ne'er so deep;
Blood is the god of war's rich livery.

Holla, ye pamper'd jades of Asia!
