Bonnie Prince

Famous quotes containing the words bonnie and/or prince:

    “Ye banks and braes o’ bonnie Doon,
    How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair?
    How can ye chant, ye little birds,
    And I sae weary fu’ o’ care?
    Thou’lt break my heart, thou warbling bird,
    That wantons thro’ the flowering thorn:
    Thou minds me o’ departed joys,
    Departed never to return.”
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    “For that rage, that bitterness, those blows,
    That hatred of the slain, what could it be
    But indirectly or directly a commentary
    On the Crucifixion?”
    —Frank Templeton Prince (b. 1912)
