Famous quotes containing the words royal, red and/or cross:

    Oh, I know my family’s not of royal blood, but you needn’t throw it in my face all the time.
    —Robert N. Lee. Rowland V. Lee. Queen Elyzabeth (sic)

    The true colour of life is the colour of the body, the colour of the covered red, the implicit and not explicit red of the living heart and the pulses. It is the modest colour of the unpublished blood.
    Alice Meynell (1847–1922)

    It is an agreeable change to cross a lake, after you have been shut up in the woods, not only on account of the greater expanse of water, but also of sky. It is one of the surprises which Nature has in store for the traveler in the forest. To look down, in this case, over eighteen miles of water, was liberating and civilizing even.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
