More quotes by Elizabeth I
A good face is the best letter of recommendation.
Elizabeth I
There is nothing in the world I hold in greater horror than to see a body moving against its head: and I shall be very careful notto ally myself with such a monster.
Elizabeth I
They best pass over the world who trip over it quickly for it is but a bog. If we stop, we sink.
Elizabeth I
A clear and innocent conscience fears nothing.
Elizabeth I
Words are leaves, the substance consists of deeds, which are the true fruits of a good tree.
Elizabeth I
O Fortune, how thy restless, wavering state has fraught with cares my troubled wit!
Elizabeth I
I do not so much rejoice that God hath made me to be a Queen, as to be a Queen over so thankful a people.

Neither do I desire to live longer days than I may see your prosperity and that is my only desire.
Elizabeth I
Do not tell secrets to those whose faith and silence you have not already tested.
Elizabeth I
Where might is mixed with wit, there is too good an accord in a government.
Elizabeth I
Had I been crested, not cloven, my Lords, you had not treated me thus.
Elizabeth I

Elizabeth I
I would not open windows into men's souls.
Elizabeth I
There is small disproportion betwixt a fool who useth not wit because he hath it not and him that useth it not when it should avail him.
Elizabeth I
If we still advise we shall never do.
Elizabeth I
[When opposed by leaders of her Council:] I will make you shorter by the head!
Elizabeth I
Where minds differ and opinions swerve there is scant a friend in that company.
Elizabeth I
God has given such brave soldiers to this Crown that, if they do not frighten our neighbours, at least they prevent us from being frightened by them.
Elizabeth I
To be a king and wear a crown is a thing more glorious to them that see it than it is pleasant to them that bear it.
Elizabeth I
He that will forget God, will also forget his benefactors.
Elizabeth I
A fool too late bewares when all the peril is past.
Elizabeth I
