Famous quotes containing the words prince and/or prussia:

    For that rage, that bitterness, those blows,
    That hatred of the slain, what could it be
    But indirectly or directly a commentary
    On the Crucifixion?
    —Frank Templeton Prince (b. 1912)

    “Austria the shield and Prussia the sword!” Too bad that they are attached to the wrong arm: The right one holds the defiantly glistening shield, and the left one is supposed to wield the sword.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
