Earl Felton

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or felton:

    So cruel prison how could betide, alas,
    As proud Windsor, Where I in lust and joy
    With a king’s son my childish years did pass
    In greater feast than Priam’s sons of Troy?
    Where each sweet place returns a taste full sour;
    Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)

    The utter helplessness of a conquered people is perhaps the most tragic feature of a civil war or any other sort of war.
    —Rebecca Latimer Felton (1835–1930)
