Famous quotes containing the words lesser and/or king:
“For one moment seek
a lesser beauty
and a lesser grace,
but you will find
no peace in the end
save in her presence.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“I know I have the body of a weak, feeble woman; but I have the heart and stomach of a king—and of a King of England too, and think foul scorn that Parma or Spain, or any prince of Europe, should dare to invade the borders of my realm; to which, rather than any dishonour should grow by me, I myself will take up arms—I myself will be your general, judge, and rewarder of every one of your virtues in the field.”
—Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
