Purple Heart Memorial

Famous quotes containing the words purple, heart and/or memorial:

    Yet marked I where the bolt of Cupid fell:
    It fell upon a little western flower,
    Before, milk-white; now purple with love’s wound:
    And maidens call it “love-in-idleness.”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The eye is the casement at which the heart generally looks out. Many a woman who will not show herself at the door, has tipt the sly, the intelligible wink from the window.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    When I received this [coronation] ring I solemnly bound myself in marriage to the realm; and it will be quite sufficient for the memorial of my name and for my glory, if, when I die, an inscription be engraved on a marble tomb, saying, “Here lieth Elizabeth, which reigned a virgin, and died a virgin.”
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
