Famous quotes containing the word prussia:

    It is reported here that the King of Prussia has gone mad and has been locked up. There would be nothing bad about that: at least that might of his would no longer be a menace, and you could breathe freely for a while. I much prefer madmen who are locked up to those who are not.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “Austria the shield and Prussia the sword!” Too bad that they are attached to the wrong arm: The right one holds the defiantly glistening shield, and the left one is supposed to wield the sword.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
