Prince Nicholas Romanovich

Famous quotes containing the words prince and/or nicholas:

    The Prince but studies his companions
    Like a strange tongue, wherein, to gain the language,
    ‘Tis needful that the most immodest word
    Be looked upon and learnt, which once attained,
    Your highness knows, comes to no further use
    But to be known and hated.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Chanuka and St. Nicholas Day came almost together this year—just one day’s difference. We didn’t make much fuss about Chanuka: we just gave each other a few little presents and then we had the candles. Because of the shortage of candles we only had them alight for ten minutes, but it is all right as long as you have the song.
    Anne Frank (1929–1945)
