“A [Don Carlos] gyógyítására tett kísérletek kudarcot vallottak, még az sem segített rajta, amikor egy mumifikált szenttel kellett megosztania az ágyát...”

“Over more than nine centuries the Habsburgs produced simpletons and visionaries, dabblers in magic and freemasonry, fanatics in religion, rulers committed to the welfare of their peoples, patrons of art and champions of science, and builders of great palaces and churches. Some Habsburgs were dedicated to peace, while others embarked on fruitless wars. Even so, as the politics of Central Europe continues to sour, it is hard to avoid the conclusion that the Hungarian historian [Domokos Kosáry] was a right after all -- a Habsburg [like Otto von Habsburg in 1990] would have done no worse.”

“A Habsburg nők elsődleges funkciója a fiú örökösök előállítása volt. Előnyt jelentett, ha valaki szép, a korabeli nézet szerint ugyanis a méhnek gyakori benedvesítésre volt szüksége ahhoz, hogy ne zsugorodjon össze.”
