Famous quotes containing the words royal, air and/or force:

    “a highly respectable gondolier,
    Who promised the Royal babe to rear
    And teach him the trade of a timoneer
    With his own beloved brattling.”
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    “Just as we are learning to value and conserve the air we breathe, the water we drink, the energy we use, we must learn to value and conserve our capacity for nurture. Otherwise, in the name of human potential we will slowly but surely erode the source of our humanity.”
    —Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    “In Arms not worse, in foresight much advanc’t,
    We may with more successful hope resolve
    To wage by force or guile eternal Warr
    Irreconcileable, to our grand Foe,”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
