Famous quotes containing the words grand and/or prince:
“If the Christ were content with humble toilers for disciples, that wasn’t good enough for our Bert. He wanted dukes’ half sisters and belted earls wiping his feet with their hair; grand apotheosis of the snob, to humiliate the objects of his own awe by making them venerate him.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
“You played a party with a prince and Miss de Zuylen. You was shocked, or rather offended, with her unlimited vivacity.”
