Kit Williams
Better a living beggar than a buried emperor.
Jean de La Fontaine
I also won one from the emperor of Japan, with a prize for the arts. That's important.

Mira Nair
I am the Roman Emperor, and am above grammar.
Emperor Sigismund
I cannot consent that my mortal body shall be laid in a repository prepared for an Emperor or a King my republican feelings and principles forbid it the simplicity of our system of government forbids it.

It has always been the prerogative of children and half-wits to point out that the emperor has no clothes. But the half-wit remains a half-wit, and the emperor remains an emperor.
