Famous quotes containing the words charles and/or townsend:

    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)

    When other helpers fail and comforts flee, when the senses decay and the mind moves in a narrower and narrower circle, when the grasshopper is a burden and the postman brings no letters, and even the Royal Family is no longer quite what it was, an obituary column stands fast.
    —Sylvia Townsend Warner (1893–1978)
