Horace Tower Quotations

Pale death, with impartial step, knocks at the hut of the poor and the towers of kings. [Lat., Pallida mors aequo pulsat pede pauperum tabernas Regumque turres.]

The lofty pine is most easily brought low by the force of the wind, and the higher the tower the greater the fall thereof.

The higher the tower, the greater the fall thereof.
