'The boast of heraldry, the pomp of power, and all that beauty, all
that wealth e'er gave, await alike the inevitable hour. The paths of
glory lead but to the grave.' — Thomas Gray 'Heraldry is history, sign language, and symbolism all in one.' — Anonymous 'Many persons regard arms as nothing more than a set of uncouth and unintelligible emblems by which families are distinguished from one another; the language by which they are described as an antiquated 'jargon'; and both as little worthy of an hour's examination as astrology, alchemy or palmistry. This is a mistake; and such individuals are guilty, however unintentionally, of a great injustice to a lordly, poetical, and useful science.' — Mark Antony Lower 'A coat of arms is but a chronicle of noble ancestors, reminding us that while the family may have fought dragons, we’re still stuck with the in-laws.' — Anonymous |
