Young Prince

Famous quotes containing the words young prince, young and/or prince:

    She shall get a duke, my dear,
    As duck do get a drake;
    And she shall have a young prince,
    For her own fair sake.
    Unknown. Green Grass (l. 9–12)

    And Cumhal saw like a drifting smoke
    All manner of blessed souls,
    Women and children, young men with books,
    And old men with croziers and stoles.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    A chaplain is the minister of the Prince of Peace serving the host of the God of War—Mars. As such, he is as incongruous as a musket would be on the altar at Christmas. Why, then, is he there? Because he indirectly subserves the purpose attested by the cannon; because too he lends the sanction of the religion of the meek to that which practically is the abrogation of everything but brute Force.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
