Famous quotes containing the words queen, cross and/or church:

    It is better to pay court to a queen ... than to worship, as we too often do, some unworthy person whose wealth is his sole passport into society. I believe that a habit of respect is good for the human race.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    But soft, behold! lo where it comes again!
    I’ll cross it though it blast me. Stay, illusion!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    This is what the Church is said to want, not party men, but sensible, temperate, sober, well-judging persons, to guide it through the channel of no-meaning, between the Scylla and Charybdis of Aye and No.
    Cardinal John Henry Newman (1801–1890)
