Grand Duke Henri

Famous quotes containing the words grand, duke and/or henri:

    What is grand is necessarily obscure to weak men. That which can be made explicit to the idiot is not worth my care.

    A fully equipped duke costs as much to keep up as two Dreadnoughts, and dukes are just as great a terror—and they last longer.
    David Lloyd George (1863–1945)

    Science is facts. Just as houses are made of stones, so is science made of facts. But a pile of stones is not a house and a collection of facts is not necessarily science.
