It's back in the news now, the Princess Diana Memorial Fountain. People going, "Oh, it's great! It's what she would have wanted. It's a place where families can hang out, children can play. It’s what Princess Diana would have wanted." It isn't! What Princess Diana would have wanted would have been to have not been killed. And then in death, not to have become the unwitting receptacle of the hysterical overemotional shrieking grief of twats.

It is sometimes necessary to lie damnably in the interests of the nation.

 

Hilaire Belloc

 

Princess: I am always disappointed with mountains. There are no mountains in the world as high as I could wish.
Adrian: No?
Princess: They irritate me invariably. I should like to shake Switzerland.

They could see she was a real Princess and no question about it, now that she had felt one pea all the way through twenty mattresses and twenty more feather beds. Nobody but a Princess could be so delicate.

 

Hans Christian Andersen

 

Hey, cool princess
With your eyes hanging
The milk of the moon
Hey, pretty princess
Take me down to your cave in the dawn
And you're gonna be a queen
When the stars water
Heaven with tears
And you gonna love me
When all our
Golden lands are free.

 

Mike Oldfield
