Ancient Egyptians Quotes

When we look back at the Mayans or ancient Egypt, we look at their art Picture Quote #1

Pies were invented 12,000 years ago by the Egyptians. It was an easy way to preserve food that would be carried over long distances. They were like ancient Slim Jims Picture Quote #1

I loved the myths of ancient Greece and Egypt Picture Quote #1

We’re coming into a rebirth of the planet. And some cultures have echoed it, such as the Mayans have echoed that, and it came from the ancient Egyptians Picture Quote #1

Even if these stories are 3,000 years old, there’s still so much about the characters, about the dilemmas, about their understanding of the universe that still resonates. The whole idea of order and chaos, which is really central to the ancient Egyptian understanding of the world, is still very much with us Picture Quote #1

I have a long view of history - my orientation is archaeological because I’m always thinking in terms of ancient Greece and Rome, ancient Persia and Egypt Picture Quote #1

In my own creations, the earliest influence came from the ancient civilisations of Egypt, China, Africa and Persia. In fact, one of my earlier creations was a range of tunics, made from silk procured from the islands of Madagascar Picture Quote #1

Itjtawy was ancient Egypt’s capital for over four hundred years, at a period of time called the Middle Kingdom about four thousand years ago.

The Ancient Egyptians considered it good luck to meet a swarm of Bees on the road. What they considered bad luck I couldn’t say Picture Quote #1

The ancient Egyptians used to say: if you say a man’s name, he is alive. I take this opportunity to say, Jim Morrison Picture Quote #1

A fact bobbed up from my memory, that the ancient Egyptians prescribed walking through a garden as a cure for the mad. It was a mind-altering drug we took daily Picture Quote #1

The metaphor of the king as the shepherd of his people goes back to ancient Egypt. Perhaps the use of this particular convention is due to the fact that, being stupid, affectionate, gregarious, and easily stampeded, the societies formed by sheep are most like human ones Picture Quote #1

More immediately, I’m currently working on another Dracula in which there will be connections with ancient Egypt. That’s about as far as I want to go in commenting on current work Picture Quote #1
