A monstrous carbuncle on the face of a much-loved and elegant friend.
Prince Charles
On proposed extension to National Gallery, May 1984 All the time I feel I must justify my existence.
Prince Charles At the moment it looks as though London seems to be turning into an absurdist picnic table - we already have a giant gherkin, now it looks as if we are going to have an enormous salt cellar.
Prince Charles
On design for Renzo Piano's 1000ft "Shard of Glass" London Bridge Tower, Speech, 2003 Conservation must come before recreation.
Prince Charles Do you seriously expect me to be the first Prince of Wales in history not to have a mistress?
Prince Charles
Quoted in The Daily Mail, 1994 I just come and talk to the plants, really-very important to talk to them, they respond I find.
Prince Charles I know that my ideas are sometimes portrayed as old-fashioned. Well, they may be. But what I am concerned about are the things that are timeless regardless of the age that we live in. Also I have been around long enough to see what were at the time thought of as old-fashioned ideas now come into vogue.
Prince Charles
Speech, November 2004 If English is spoken in heaven ... God undoubtedly employs Cranmer as his speechwriter. The angels of the lesser ministries probably use the language of the New English Bible and the Alternative Service Book for internal memos.
Prince Charles
Remark when judging a reading competition Science has tried to assume a monopoly - or, rather, a tyranny - over our understanding of the world around us … We are only now beginning to under the disastrous results of this outlook.
Prince Charles
Speech titled 'Sacred in the Modern World', July 1996 Surely the time has come to escape from an almost adolescent obsession with being "modern" - the product, perhaps, of a 20th century "teenage crisis"? - and, instead, to be more concerned about being "human"!

Speech on 'Local Identity in a Fast-Track Age', November 2004
That's called a microphone. It's a big sausage that picks up everything you say-and you're starting early.
Prince Charles
To his two-year-old son William at his first press conference, June 1984 The whole imposing edifice of modern medicine, for all its breathtaking successes, is, like the celebrated Tower of Pisa, slightly off balance. It is frightening how dependent on drugs we are all becoming and how easy it is for doctors to prescribe them as the universal panacea for our ills.
Prince Charles
Address at 150th anniversary dinner of British Medical Association, January 1985 To get the best results, you must talk to your vegetables.
Prince Charles What I want to know is: what is actually wrong with an elite.
Prince Charles
Newspaper quote, 1985 What's wrong with everyone nowadays? What is it that makes everyone seem to think they are qualified to do things far beyond their technical capabilities? This is all to do with the learning culture in schools. It is a consequence of a child-centred system which admits no failure and tells people they can be pop stars, high court judges, brilliant TV personalities or even infinitely more competent heads of state without ever putting ikn the necessary effort or having natural abilities. It's social utopianism which believes humanity can be genetically and socially re-engineeered to contradict the lessons of history. What on earth am I to say to Elaine in reply? She's so PC it frightens me rigid.
Prince Charles
Hand-written note by Prince Charles dismissing efforts by personal assistant Elaine Day by be trained for a higher-level post Yes … whatever that may mean.
Prince Charles
Asked if he was 'in love', after announcement of his engagement to Lady Diana Spencer Yes.... It became clear that the marriage had irretrievably broken down.
Prince Charles
After admitting infidelity to his wife, in BBC television interview with Jonathan Dimbleby, June 1994 You have to give this much to the Luftwaffe: when it knocked down our buildings it did not replace them with anything more offensive than rubble. We did that.
