Quote of the Day
"Among the rare authentic stories of [Prince] Philip's childhood is the account of how an insensitive grown-up arrived one day on the beach with toys for all but an invalid child, assumed to be ruled out for playthings. Philip, who was five, went into the house and collected all his personal treasures and presented them to her, the latest aquisition on top. It could have been showing-off. It was more probably an early glimpse of character. One of his equerries recently came out with something on this: 'What people don't realise is that he's immensely kind. No one has a bigger heart, or takes greater pains to conceal it.'" - The Oxford Book of Royal Anecdotes
