Royal

Famous quotes containing the word royal:

    The captain sat in a commodore’s hat
    And dined in a royal way
    On toasted pigs and pickles and figs
    And gummery bread each day.
    Charles Edward Carryl (1841–1920)

    Not to these shores she came! this other Thrace,
    Environ barbarous to the royal Attic;
    How could her delicate dirge run democratic,
    Delivered in a cloudless boundless public place
    To an inordinate race?
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    Oh, I know my family’s not of royal blood, but you needn’t throw it in my face all the time.
    —Robert N. Lee. Rowland V. Lee. Queen Elyzabeth (sic)
