“The Queen is most anxious to enlist every one who can speak or write to join in checking this mad, wicked folly of 'Woman's Rights', with all its attendant horrors, on which her poor feeble sex is bent . . .”
Queen Victoria
“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!”
Jack Kerouac
“You know, I do speak the Queens English. It's just the wrong Queens that's all. It's over the 59th Street Bridge. It's not over the Atlantic Ocean.”
Cyndi Lauper
“We (she and her husband) made the commitment to join Our Lady Queen of Peace and help the Brazilian community.”
Cecilia Johnson
“There are two types of royal programs. One is ever-praising of the queen, and the other is of the tabloid-sort, having a go at the royal family. We were trying to be as neutral and as objective as possible. We hope people make up their own minds.”
Matt Reid
“It probably would have been mentioned to the Queen by the prime minister and she would speak to Charles herself about it.”
Ingrid Seward
“The Queen is contemptuous of monarchies that do pick and choose and do retire. One inherits after the other dies -- that's it.”
