No matter how high or great the throne, What sits on it is the same as your own.

Yip Harburg

Sometimes I sits and thinks. Other times I sits and drinks, but mostly I just sits.

Neal Cassady

On a throne at the center of a sense of humor sits a capacity for irony. All wit rests on a cheerful awareness of life's incongruities. It is a gentling awareness, and no politician without it should be allowed near power.

George Will

Watch them clamber, these swift monkeys! They clamber over one another and thus drag one another into the mud and the depth. They all want to get to the throne: that is their madness — as if happiness sat on the throne. Often, mud sits on the throne — and often the throne also on mud. Mad they all appear to me, clambering monkeys and overardent. Foul smells their idol, the cold monster: foul, they smell to me altogether, these idolators.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Every tub sits on its bottom.

Zora Neale Hurston

The inner throne of man is both what the kingdom of Christ and the kingdom of Lucifer are after. And when this throne is yielded to the Almighty God, a man enters upon the sacred path of greatness right then and there...The destiny of a human soul depends entirely on who sits upon the throne of that soul...when the flesh is removed from its position of power, the human soul is made ready to usher in the glory of its true and rightful King

Eric Ludy

I have a room whereinto no one enters Save I myself alone: There sits a blessed memory on a throne, There my life centres.

Christina Rossetti

I actually have my first iPhone deformity because it sits on my pinky, and now my bone actually dips in where my cellphone sits.

Torrey DeVitto

...Bananach sits on your throne, has declared herself Dark Queen." "She WHAT!?" Niall- or perhaps Irial-asked.

Melissa Marr

Barack Obama, he just sits out. He sits back; he criticizes everybody. He's got his professorial attitude, real condescending, as if he's got all the answers.

Steve Scalise

All power is indeed weak compared with that of the thinker. He sits upon the throne of his Empire of Thought, mightier far than they who wield material sceptres.
