Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or court:

    “This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle,
    This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
    This other Eden, demi-paradise,
    This fortress built by nature for herself
    Against infection and the hand of war,
    This happy breed of men, this little world,
    This precious stone set in the silver sea,
    Which serves it in the office of a wall,
    Or as a moat defensive to a house
    Against the envy of less happier lands;
    This blessèd plot, this earth, this realm, this England.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “At court I met it, in clothes brave enough
    To be a courtier, and looks grave enough
    To seem a statesman.”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
