King Cakes

Famous quotes containing the words king and/or cakes:

    “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then queen died of grief” is a plot.

    A woman’s heart must be of such a size and no larger, else it must be pressed small, like Chinese feet; her happiness is to be made as cakes are, by a fixed receipt.
