More from Richelieu
- Beneath the rule of men entirely great, The pen is mightier than the sword.
- In the lexicon of youth, which fate reserves For a bright manhood, there is no such word As “fail.”
- Our glories float between the earth and heaven Like clouds which seem pavilions of the sun.
- Take away the sword; States can be saved without it.
- You speak As one who fed on poetry.
- A good heart is better than all the heads in the world.
