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

    “a highly respectable gondolier,

    And teach him the trade of a timoneer
    With his own beloved brattling.”
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    “A slight daily unconscious luxury is hardly ever wanting to the dwellers in civilisation; like the gentle air of a genial climate, it is a perpetual minute enjoyment.”
    —Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

    “The body, what is it, Father, but a sign
    To love the force that grows us, to give back
    What in Thy palm is senselessness and mud?”
