Royal Palaces

Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or palaces:

    Vanessa wanted to be a ballerina. Dad had such hopes for her.... Corin was the academically brilliant one, and a fencer of Olympic standard. Everything was expected of them, and they fulfilled all expectations. But I was the one of whom nothing was expected. I remember a game the three of us played. Vanessa was the President of the United States, Corin was the British Prime Minister—and I was the royal dog.
    Lynn Redgrave (b. 1943)

    Give a boy address and accomplishments and you give him the mastery of palaces and fortunes where he goes.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
