Prince Charles Alexander

Famous quotes containing the words prince, charles and/or alexander:

    What is it then to me, if impious War,
    Arrayed in flames like to the prince of fiends,
    Do with his smirched complexion all fell feats
    Enlinked to waste and desolation?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I’m down here all alone, but as happy as a king—at least, as happy as some kings—at any rate, I should think I’m about as happy as King Charles the First when he was in prison.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    An Austrian army, awfully array’d,
    Boldly by battery besiege Belgrade;
    Cossack commanders cannonading come,
    Deal devastation’s dire destructive doom;
    —Alaric Alexander Watts (1797–1864)
