Grand Duc

Famous quotes containing the words grand and/or duc:

“What do you do in the Grand Hotel? Eat, sleep, loaf around, flirt a little, dance a little. A hundred doors leading to one hall. No one knows anything about the person next to them. And when you leave, someone occupies your room, lies in your bed. That’s the end.”
—William A. Drake (1900–1965)

“Pride, which inspires us with so much envy, is sometimes of use toward the moderating of it too.”
