Famous quotes containing the word royal:

    “When other helpers fail and comforts flee, when the senses decay and the mind moves in a narrower and narrower circle, when the grasshopper is a burden and the postman brings no letters, and even the Royal Family is no longer quite what it was, an obituary column stands fast.”
    —Sylvia Townsend Warner (1893–1978)
