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)

“When my arms wrap you round I press
My heart upon the loveliness
That has long faded from the world....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
