King Lists

Famous quotes containing the words king and/or lists:

    I know that I have the body of a weak and feeble woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England too.
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)

    Behold then Septimus Dodge returning to Dodge-town victorious. Not crowned with laurel, it is true, but wreathed in lists of things he has seen and sucked dry. Seen and sucked dry, you know: Venus de Milo, the Rhine or the Coloseum: swallowed like so many clams, and left the shells.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
