  2. Build build build. Engross yourself so much that you lose grip of reality. Enjoy your money. Does it make you happy? Sit at the top, alone and share your sights with me. When I die I’ll share my experience of living in the moment and we can compare notes.

  3. They didn’t own much. Just a plot of land that held all of their things. The family had lived on this land for generations and no one had taken it from them. It was their empire built from the ground up with with planks of wood and handmade nails and it would stand for years to come.

  4. British Empire – part good, part bad. Hard to justify marching into other countries and taking over. Empire line dress – my one evening dress. I love it – easy to wear, flattering.

  6. This is what’s left of your empire, my liege – this is what’s left of your fiefdom. Piles of ash over twenty feet high where your towers once rose like tarantula’s legs. Crumbling wastelands of brick and dead stone where you previously held your ceremonies. Your fortress is breaking like cake in my hands as my fingers linger along its walls. Life is impermanent, and so is your reign – accept it, and die like a man.

  7. empire, that word just describes one thing….power. I feel like the word itself has more negative than positive connotations

  8. Dave was an eager guy who believed he could conquer the world. He had a strong confidence that created such momentum that it seemed like he was unstoppable. He was not born with opportunity, but he refused to let that deter him from achieving whatever he wanted. He did not lie, cheat, or steal, but he put complete confidence into his actions and made decisions fearlessly. This combination took him far. He would have his empire built in no time.

    Along the way, he met a guy who was born with opportunity, and they became close friends. Although his friend was born with the opportunity Dave fought so hard to achieve on his own, no tension or pettiness arose from their differences. Instead of trying to one-up each other because of pettiness or jealousy, they would do it as a challenge to push each other to strive harder.

    Then, Dave and his friend’s sister fell in love. She could look at him and instantaneously make his heart race. He dove completely in- just like he always did with things he wanted. They supported each other and would constantly push each other’s buttons (usually in a playful way and sometimes to push each other to grow out of their comfort zones).

    They decided to take a trip to the beach for some relaxation and then planned to go back to work recharged. With the view of the sun lowering closer to the water, he lied with her on a hammock and forgot about his future empire. He loved a challenge, but in this quiet moment, he was blissfully happy.

  10. The two of them had built a secret empire between them. An invisible place where only the two of them existed, a place that was unknown to everyone else in their lives. A place built from the words, emotions, and ideas that they had no outlet for elsewhere in their lives. This hidden sanctuary even had its own weather. Sometimes it would be a cold and dry void, and other times and burning hot monument to passion and intrigue that felt so hot that he almost could not bear it.

    Being there made him happy.

  11. you turned this beautiful empire into a twisted, forgotten reminder of what it once was. Look at us now, we have to hide in the streets, running in the sewers, away from the creatures that you summoned and away from the twisted king you put on the throne.

  12. The world is an empire where you are the king/queen of your world. There is no one to stop you from conquering the empire – the world. Get set go

  13. The Empire Strikes Back. Fantastic movie. I love the part where Luke goes off to train with Yoda, and he does this one-handed handstand. It’s fucking incredible. And Daniel in Cobra Kai does the same thing, and my sister commented on it. And when Luke confronts Vader. Oh, the colors. Blue and orange. Beautiful.

  14. The city stood in the distance, glowing like an ember. She stood on the hill and tired to inhale the feeling of smallness, of insignificance.

  15. ´How the balcony underneath the stars merely shines in the empire of the eyes´, lectured the philosopher.

    ´ This is just the reply to the thesis of continuation´, read the proof reader aloud.

  16. The bookshop closed its doors. Only ten more times before it would never open again. The evil online empire had dried out the market. No more readings, no more advice for clueless customers.
