More quotes by Elizabeth I
Words are leaves, the substance consists of deeds, which are the true fruits of a good tree.
Elizabeth I
The doubt of future foes exiles my present joy.
Elizabeth I
For, what is a family without a steward, a ship without a pilot, a flock without a shepherd, a body without a head, the same, I think, is a kingdom without the health and safety of a good monarch.
Elizabeth I
Be always faithful to me, as I always desire to keep you in peace and if there have been wiser kings, none has ever loved you more than I have.
Elizabeth I
I am more afraid of making a fault in my Latin than of the Kings of Spain, France, Scotland, the whole House of Guise, and all of their confederates.
Elizabeth I
Must! Is must a word to be addressed to princes? Little man, little man! Thy father, if he had been alive, durst not have used that word.
Elizabeth I
My seat has been the seat of kings, and I will have no rascal to succeed me.
Elizabeth I
Brass shines as fair to the ignorant as gold to the goldsmiths.
Elizabeth I
O Fortune, how thy restless, wavering state has fraught with cares my troubled wit!
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 I follow the inclination of my nature, it is this: beggar-woman and single, far rather than queen and married.
Elizabeth I
The daughter of debate That still discord doth sow.
Elizabeth I
Let tyrants fear, I have always so behaved myself that, under God, I have placed my chiefest strength and safeguard in the loyal hearts and good-will of my subjects.
Elizabeth I
The word must is not to be used to princes.
Elizabeth I
It is hard to find beauty in the art of self expression.
Elizabeth I
Where minds differ and opinions swerve there is scant a friend in that company.
Elizabeth I
My mortal foe can no ways wish me a greater harm than England's hate neither should death be less welcome unto me than such a mishap betide me.
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. Therefore I have cause to wish nothing more than to content the subject and that is a duty which I owe. Neither do I desire to live longer days than I may see your prosperity and that is my only desire.
Elizabeth I
I would rather go to any extreme than suffer anything that is unworthy of my reputation, or of that of my crown.
Elizabeth I
It is good to jest, but not to make a trade of jesting.
Elizabeth I
