Famous quotes containing the words crown and/or prince:
“I often used to think myself in the case of the fox-hunter, who, when he had toiled and sweated all day in the chase as if some unheard-of blessing was to crown his success, finds at last all he has got by his labor is a stinking nauseous animal. But my condition was yet worse than his; for he leaves the loathsome wretch to be torn by his hounds, whilst I was obliged to fondle mine, and meanly pretend him to be the object of my love.”
—Sarah Fielding (17101768)
“Miltons the prince of poetsso we say;
A little heavy, but no less divine:
An independent being in his day”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
