Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or irish:
“Not to these shores she came! this other Thrace,
Environ barbarous to the royal Attic;
How could her delicate dirge run democratic,
Delivered in a cloudless boundless public place
To an inordinate race?”
—John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
“Hindered characters
seldom have mothers
in Irish stories, but they all have grandmothers.”
