Famous quotes containing the words savage and/or memorial:

    Twenty years hence my eyes may grow
    If not quite dim, yet rather so,
    Still yours from others they shall know
    —Walter Savage Landor (1775–1864)

    When I received this [coronation] ring I solemnly bound myself in marriage to the realm; and it will be quite sufficient for the memorial of my name and for my glory, if, when I die, an inscription be engraved on a marble tomb, saying, “Here lieth Elizabeth, which reigned a virgin, and died a virgin.”
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
