Edmond Rostand Quotes

You strip from me the laurel and the rose!Take all! Despite you there is yet one thingI hold against you all, and when, tonight,I enter Christ's fair courts, and, lowly bowed,Sweep with doffed casque the heavens' threshold blue,One thing is left, that, void of stain or smutch,I bear away despite you … My panache.
