And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

"I think I’m a bit better looking than she is." - Anne, Princess Royal, on being told by a horse show spectator that she looked like Princess Anne.
She has her dad’s pithy sense of humor and has aged well. It’s a pity she wasn’t first-born, her brother is a colossal jerk. Anne is the best queen England never had.
She hasn't aged well. The most frequent comment made in later years about Princess Anne is more along of the lines of how much she resembles her horse.
I'm a hardcore Irish Fenian. I have no hard feelings for that girl. She's also a dedicated Scottish Rugby Team fan. I've worked in Murrayfield (look it up) and she sits at every game right among the fans. Her brother however, may be the last king and I'm delighted about that.

First born, first in line, from 2011 onwards.
Pity Elizabeth didn't indicate she wished to skip Chuck and go with Anne when she had the chance to designate her successor.
The nation, as a whole, would've probably leapt at the opportunity.
She certainly was shapely.

You can see the inbreeding.
ReplyDeleteShe's just channeling her inner Henny Youngman.
