About This Quote
This quote is attributed to the queen of England, Elizabeth I. The queen was apparently concerned about the future of royal men in Britain, since she had no sons to pass on the title. She made this statement in an attempt to discourage women from pursuing royal marriages. This quote has been used for years as a joke on British men who don’t have royal blood. It’s also been said that Queen Elizabeth II has never told this joke to her husband, Prince Philip.
