I'm the heir apparent to the heir presumptive.

My children are not royal; they just happen to have the Queen for their aunt.

I have as much privacy as a goldfish in a bowl.

The Queen is the only person who can put on a tiara with one hand, while walking down stairs.

Disobedience is my joy!

I'm no angel, but I'm no Bo-Beep either.

[On public events attended by royalty:] It was the usual 'zoo tea.' You know, we eat - the others watch.

I am deeply grateful for the concern of all those who constantly prayed for my happiness.

In our family, we don't have rifts. We have a jolly good row and then it's all over. And I've only twice ever had a row with my sister.

I have no intention of telling people what I have for breakfast.

When my sister and I were growing up, she was made out to be the goody-goody one.

Sometimes I think I must have a Guardian Idiot. A little invisible spirit just behind my shoulder, looking out for me...only he's an imbecile.

A woman's eyes cut deeper than a knife.

Thinking of the future, establishing aims for oneself, having preferences—all this presupposes a belief in freedom, even if one occasionally ascertains that one doesn't feel it.

Science is nothing but the process of finding solutions.

I love meeting new people I think everyone has a story to tell. We should all listen sometimes.

I attended schools in Seattle through the University of Washington, from which I was graduated in 1931. I spent the next year at Northwestern University.

The rose is wont with pride to swell, and ever seeks to rise.

I make my own surprises and I'm always surprised to see what I do, to see it when it's finished and the biggest challenge is once I finish it, it's not a failure. It's not a flop.

As soon as you see something, you already start to intellectualize it. As soon as you intellectualize something, it is no longer what you saw.

A humble man is not afraid of failure. In fact, he is not afraid of anything, even himself, since perfect humility implies perfect confidence in the power of God.
