Princess Margarita of Greece and Denmark - Titles, Styles, Honours and Arms

Famous quotes containing the words honours and/or arms:

“Come hither, all ye empty things,
Ye bubbles rais’d by breath of Kings;
Who float upon the tide of state,
Come hither, and behold your fate.
Let pride be taught by this rebuke,
How very mean a thing’s a Duke;
From all his ill-got honours flung,
Turn’d to that dirt from whence he sprung.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

“It is good to be tired and wearied by the futile search after the true good, that we may stretch out our arms to the Redeemer.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
