Royal Prince

Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or prince:

    Because humans are not alone in exhibiting such behavior—bees stockpile royal jelly, birds feather their nests, mice shred paper—it’s possible that a pregnant woman who scrubs her house from floor to ceiling [just before her baby is born] is responding to a biological imperative . . . . Of course there are those who believe that . . . the burst of energy that propels a pregnant woman to clean her house is a perfectly natural response to their mother’s impending visit.
    Mary Arrigo (20th century)

    “There was a Prince of old
    At Salem dwelt, who lived with good increase
    Of flock and fold.

    He sweetly lived; yet sweetness did not save
    His life from foes.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)
