Alexander III of Russia - Titles, Styles and Arms

Famous quotes containing the words styles and/or arms:

“... it is use, and use alone, which leads one of us, tolerably trained to recognize any criterion of grace or any sense of the fitness of things, to tolerate ... the styles of dress to which we are more or less conforming every day of our lives. Fifty years hence they will seem to us as uncultivated as the nose-rings of the Hottentot seem today.”
—Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)

“When my arms wrap you round I press
My heart upon the loveliness
That has long faded from the world....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
