King Lists

Famous quotes containing the words king and/or lists:

    I know I have the body of a weak and feeble woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England, too.
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)

    Most of our platitudes notwithstanding, self-deception remains the most difficult deception. The tricks that work on others count for nothing in that very well-lit back alley where one keeps assignations with oneself: no winning smiles will do here, no prettily drawn lists of good intentions.
    Joan Didion (b. 1934)
