Prince William

Famous quotes containing the words prince and/or william:

    The Prince but studies his companions
    Like a strange tongue, wherein, to gain the language,
    ‘Tis needful that the most immodest word
    Be looked upon and learnt, which once attained,
    Your highness knows, comes to no further use
    But to be known and hated.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    And William had dudgeon for the sightless beadle
    Who worshipped a God like a grandmother on ice-skates,
    For William saw two angels on the point of a needle
    As nobody since except W. B. Yeats.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
