FANTASY SENTENCES QUOTES. taking from various sources across media, these quotes have mentions of kingdoms, royalty, arranged marriages, duty and more related to this type of fantasy based like magic and sorts. change pronouns as you see fit.

I’m a terrible prince. I should put my kingdom first and everything else second, but you are first. I want you by my side every second.

(Pronoun ) has no right to be queen at all.

She can turn people into stone and do all kinds of horrible things.

Plenty of people have told me you are not my father‘ but it does not matter a bit.

If I am a princess in rags and tatters, I can be a princess inside.

It would be easy to be a princess if I were dressed in cloth of gold, but it is a great deal more of a triumph to be one all the time when no one knows it.

You have royalty in your blood. You are excellent in every way.

He is much more attractive when he is using his status for a purpose.

It is necessary for a prince to have the people friendly.

The willingness of the people to follow a ruler is what gives her power.

Separation, elevation, delegation- it was all just a ruse.

We might then imprison Her Royal Highness in a tower and send out a proclamation to say that any prince who slew the dragon should be rewarded by the princess’s hand in marriage.

My whole thing is loyalty. Loyalty over royalty; word is bond.

In the past, people were born royal. Nowadays, royalty comes from what you do.

As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.

My advisers built a wall between myself and my people. I didn't realize what was happening.

I will remain on the throne until I fall off.

To have another language is to possess a second soul.

I’ll give them dragons. So they think they can push me off on to any silly prince who kills a dragon, do they!

And is not the dragon the hero of his own story? Is not the wolf simply acting as a wolf should act?

Like most modern people, I don’t believe in prophecy or magic.

Powerful magic holds the knots in place.

She is a perfectly terrible person.
