Famous quotes containing the word prince:
“The last public hanging in the State took place in 1835 on Prince Hill....

Nothing can happen until I get there.’”

“The prince exults whomever he selects as his consort, but the queen, rather than elevating the subject of her choice, humiliates him as a man. By all that is right, a man is not intended to be the husband of his wife, but a woman is to be her husband’s wife.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
