Queen Emma is often remembered for her affection for all things British and her disdain for all things American, which this quote embraces: "We have yet the right to dispose of our country as we wish, and be assured that it will never be to a Republic".

∙ 8y agowhat was Queen Victoria's famous saying
*****
"We are not amused". The Queen is said to have uttered this rebuff to an equerry who told a rather too indelicate story during a dinner at Windsor Castle. The Queen was not using the royal 'we' but its is claimed was speaking on behalf of all the ladies present at the table. This famous phrase has since come to sum up the supposedly straight-faced stuffiness of that part of the Victorian era. In fact, it is recored that Queen Victoria, actually had a very keen sense of humour, is alledged to have told her grand-daughter, Princess Alice, Countess of Athlone, that she had in fact never uttered those words.
