Sigismund, Holy Roman Emperor quotes

When your last breath arrives, Grammar can do nothing.
Justice is the grammar of things. Mercy is the poetry of things.
Your grammar is a reflection of your image. Good or bad, you have made an impression. And like all impressions, you are in total control.
Statistics is the grammar of science.
The emperor is in the Church, not about the Church.
Name me an emperor who was ever struck by a cannonball.
No emperor has the power to dictate to the heart.
I had rather be on my farm than be emperor of the world.
Everything Mengistu has done since 1977 has been to place himself in a position of uncontestable power. Neither Haile Selassie nor any of the previous emperors had this insatiable thirst for power.
No one would have doubted his ability to reign had he never been emperor.
