More quotes by Prince Philip
There are always twenty excellent reasons for doing nothing for every one reason for starting anything-especially if it has never been done before.
Prince Philip
You were playing your instruments? Or do you have tape recorders under your seats?
Prince Philip
It's no use saying do this, do that, don't do that ... it's very easy when children want something to say no immediately. I think it's quite important not to give an unequivocal answer at once. Much better to think it over. Then, if you eventually say no, I think they really accept it.
Prince Philip
It is frequently more rewarding merely to ask pertinent questions. It may get someone to go and look for an answer.
Prince Philip
If you stay here much longer you'll all be slitty-eyed.
Prince Philip
Change does not change tradition, it strengthens it. Change is a challenge and anopportunity, not a threat.
Prince Philip
It’s a pleasure to be in a country that isn’t ruled by its people.
Prince Philip
It's difficult to see how it's possible to become immensely valuable by singing what are the most hideous songs.
Prince Philip
I don't think a prostitute is more moral than a wife, but they are doing the same thing.
Prince Philip
Do people trip over you?
Prince Philip
There's a cord sticking out of the back. Might you tell me where it goes?
Prince Philip
It's my custom to say something flattering to begin with so I shall be excused if I put my foot in it later on.
Prince Philip
It's a vast waste of space.
Prince Philip
Oh, it's you that owns that ghastly car, is it?
Prince Philip
The bastards murdered half my family.
Prince Philip
I've never been noticeably reticent about talking on subjects about which I know nothing.
Prince Philip
Were you here in the bad old days? ... That's why you can't read and write then!
Prince Philip
People say after a fire it's water damage that's the worst. We're still drying out Windsor Castle.
Prince Philip
If it has got four legs and it is not a chair, if it has got two wings and it flies but is not an aeroplane, and if it swims and it is not a submarine, the Cantonese will eat it.
Prince Philip
You can't have been here long, you haven't got a pot belly.
Prince Philip
