British Royal Sayings

#2. If you look at the British royal family and take away the scandals and the goofy stuff that's going on, people love to have this king to look up to - the royals are like celebrities.

Kevin J. Anderson

#3. There is something about Prince William and Prince Harry that brings real modernity to the British royal family. They are also very open, human, and kind, and this is what I have tried to capture in the pictures I have taken of them as well as in my pictures of Prince William and Catherine.

Mario Testino

#4. On the British Royal Divorce (Charles and Dianna). She is such a sad soul. It is good that it is over. Nobody was happy anyhow. I know I should preach family love and unity, but in their case ...

#8. The Royal Navy had not built its magnificent reputation over the centuries by avoiding battle.

Arthur Nicholson

#9. Scriptures reveal the divine desires of the Lord in our behalf. Each of us should have a burning desire to search the scriptures diligently and daily to seek the will of the Lord in our life. For some, it may be necessary to develop the discipline to search the scriptures daily.

L. Lionel Kendrick

#10. Cyriack, whose Grandsire on the Royal Bench Of British Themis, with no mean applause Pronounced and in his volumes taught our Laws, Which others at their Bar so often wrench

John Milton

#11. Joe opened the front door.

Rudy Yuly

#12. The monarchy is foremost a business, and it's important to them that the British public continue to finance the excessive luxurious lifestyles of the now quite enormous, wasteful and useless 'royal' family. I find it very sad.

Morrissey

#13. The only traditions of the Royal Navy are rum, sodomy and the lash.

#15. With or without the Royals, we are not Americans. Nor are we British. Or French. Or Void. We are something else. And the sooner we define this, the better.

Will Ferguson

#16. I think the British learn their history through the prism of this gallery of grotesques known as the royals.

Harry Shearer

#17. ROSE: The rumor is that he's Voldemort's son, Albus. A horrible, uncomfortable silence. It's probably rubbish. I mean . . . look, you've got a nose.

Jack Thorne

#18. British establishment uses "the royal we," as in, "We think this." You hear a lot of that these days. It erroneously suggests that those who are making the decisions to bomb countries, to devastate economies, to take part in acts of international piracy involve all of us.

John Pilger

#19. If I follow the inclination of my nature, it is this: beggar-woman and single, far rather than queen and married.

Massimo Pigliucci

#23. Would I be commenting on Amy Fisher?
Was that the sort of subject that someone who hoped to become poet laureate should discuss? Would those British laureates who had traditionally written about royal birthdays and royal jubilees have dealt with such goings on?

Calvin Trillin

#24. I'd like to see a much more open Monarchy, myself. I used to think they were completely useless and we should get rid of them. I don't necessarily feel that way anymore. I'm still ambivalent, I still loathe the British class system, and the Royal family are the apex of the British class system.

Helen Mirren

#25. There's no blame placed at Kate Middleton, who was in the hospital for, as far as I can see, absolutely no reason ... She feels no shame about the death of this woman. The arrogance of the British royals is staggering, absolutely staggering.
