Famous quotes containing the words sun and/or princes:
“The sun of a prince’s good graces resembles that in the skies in that it shines most kindly upon the blackest people.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“I regard almost all quarrels of princes on the same footing, and I see nothing that marks man’s unreason so positively as war. Indeed, what folly to kill one another for interests often imaginary, and always for the pleasure of persons who do not think themselves even obliged to those who sacrifice themselves for them!”
—Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (1689–1762)
