The court jester had the right to say the most outrageous things to the king. Everything was permitted during carnival, even the songs that the Roman legionnaires would sing, calling Julius Caesar queen, alluding, in a very transparent way, to his real, or presumed, homosexual escapades.
Umberto Eco

The spirit who inhabits her animates us all. Destroy the host, you destroy the power. The young die first the old wither slowly the eldest perhaps would go last. But she is the Queen of the Damned, and the Damned can't live without her.
Anne Rice
Image
Let the spirits witness: for theirs is the knowledge of the future - both what it would be, and what I will: You are the Queen of the Damned, that's what you are! Evil is your only destiny. But at your greatest hour, it is I who will defeat you. Look well on my face. It is I who will bring you down.
Anne Rice

A lot of people think that fame is the Band-Aid that cures their ills. I'm no kid, and I knew long before I got famous that wasn't the deal. I'm the court jester, not the queen.

We all deserve to live in a world where our rights aren't violated at the whim of our leaders. It doesn't matter if our leaders are kings and queens, or the people who claim to save us from them.

If Queen Elizabeth knighthooded me and I would get the title Sir Usain Bolt. That sounds very nice.

[Queen Elizabeth] is just the granny queen! She's our granny queen who shakes people's hands!

George Lowe was the one who opened the mail, and George started laughing uproariously and I looked up at him in astonishment and said, What's so funny? And he said, You've been given a title, and I said, Ha, ha, big joke. I didn't believe him but, sure enough, in this letter it indicated that the Queen had given me a title.

How can rogue terrorists in Iraq detonate bombs? They're all too busy flying kites with their children! Hasn't [Katrina vanden Heuvel (Queen of the May at the fun-loving Nation magazine)] seen Fahrenheit 9/11?
Ann Coulter

At The Body Shop we had always been measured by how many jobs we had created, and I got a major award from the Queen on that.

Rhyme, that enslaved queen, that supreme charm of our poetry, that creator of our meter.
Victor Hugo

To even be called the 'teen queen' is crazy.
Victoria Justice

There are some things that money can't buy: peace of mind, for starters, and lean muscle mass. Neither the Queen of England nor the founder of Microsoft can put in an order for either one.
Victoria Moran

Yes, but either way, shamed or not, I shall be Queen of England, and this is the last time you will sit in my presence.
Philippa Gregory

I love a smart, well-written show, and '30 Rock,' well, you can't get any better than that. Tina Fey poos funny. There's nothing that she does that isn't funny. That show is an example of how brilliant she is. It's so smart. They've done some brilliant commentary about the 'Housewives' with 'Queen of Jordan,' their show-within-the-show.
Andy Cohen

I worked in television I'm the Failed Pilot Queen, I've done so many television shows, pilots, theater ... when you do it for so long, I'm telling you, you get to the point where it becomes varied because you take what's available for a number of reasons. It's just an occupational hazard.
Viola Davis

Weese, she would whisper, first of all. Dunsen, Chiswyck, Polliver, Raff the Sweetling. The Tickler and the Hound. Ser Gregor, Ser Armory, Ser Ilyn, Ser Meryn, King Joffrey, Queen Cersei.
George R. R. Martin

If you saw Queen Elizabeth it would be amazing, she came from another planet. She was so attractive in what she was wearing.

Even a queen stubs her toe, but a wise woman watches the path.

Opinion is called the queen of the world it is so, for when reason opposes it, it is condemned to death. It must rise twenty times from its ashes to gradually drive away the usurper.
Voltaire

Combinations with a queen sacrifice are among the most striking and memorable.

One night in the early sixties I passed something on the Long Island Expressway just before the Queens tunnel that I must have seen for years. The billboard advertising cigars, Dutch Masters. I realized it was sort of perfect. It's weird isn't it? You're looking at Rembrandt - in neon! It was too much, it was irresistible.
