• There are such beings in the world -- perhaps one in a thousand -- as the creature you and I should think perfection; where grace and spirit are united to worth, where the manners are equal to the heart and understanding; but such a person may not come in your way, or, if he does, he may not be the eldest son of a man of fortune, the near relation of your particular friend, and belonging to your own county.

• Creo que cuando hay que elegir entre la cobardía y la no violencia, yo aconsejaría la violencia. Así, cuando mi hijo mayor me preguntó qué debería haber hecho, si hubiera estado presente cuando casi me asaltan mortalmente en 1908, si debería haber huido y ver cómo me mataban o si debería haber usado su fuerza física, que podía y quería usar, y defenderme, le dije que era su deber defenderme incluso usando la violencia.

• It is through hearing stories about wicked stepmothers, lost children, good but misguided kings, wolves that suckle twin boys, youngest sons who receive no inheritance but must make their own way in the world, and eldest sons who waste their inheritance on riotous living and go into exile to live with the swine, that children learn or mislearn both what a child and what a parent is, what the cast of characters may be in the drama into which they have been born and what the ways of the world are.

• The first 10 years of my professional life had only to do with running away from my father. He was a wonderful cabinet-maker, and me being the eldest son, I had to take over his shop, his profession and so on and so on. I tried to escape by going to art school and then going on to industrial design and then interior design.

• Fue fantástico poder tener a mis hijos en el plató. A Dash, mi hijo mayor, que aún no ha cumplido los cinco años, le gustaban los caballeros y su madrina le había regalado un traje de caballero de plástico de Marks & Spencer y [el primer ayudante de dirección] Tommy Gormley le dijo que podía ponerse de pie para protegerme durante la escena en la que Clive [Owen] habla de la inmensidad de sentarse en el trono. En realidad estoy mirando a través de un arco a mi hijo de pie, con su traje de caballero, ¡protegiéndome!

• I think there's an underlying insecurity to Bush with a rather classical genesis - namely his being the eldest son of a famous father. I think this has propelled his need to be distinctive, to do big things.

• El emperador Constantino, que elevó el cristianismo al poder, asesinó a su esposa Fausta y a su hijo mayor Crispo el mismo año en que convocó el Concilio de Niza para decidir si Jesucristo era un hombre o el Hijo de Dios. El concilio decidió que Cristo era consustancial con el padre. Esto fue en el año 325. Por lo tanto, estamos en deuda con un asesino de esposas por resolver la controvertida cuestión de la divinidad del Salvador.

• Royal relationships across the generations have often been strained and distant, rather than close and affectionate. Most eldest sons, interminably waiting to become king, have not been on the best of terms with the sovereign to whose death they look forward with a debilitating combination of guilt-ridden anxiety and eager anticipation. And younger sons (and daughters, too) have often found their lives empty of purpose: cut off by their royal statius, but unable to find anything rewarding with which to fill the time.

• La ley conocida como Marchetta, o Marquette, obligaba a las mujeres recién casadas a una servidumbre de lo más deshonrosa. Eran consideradas presa legítima del Señor Feudal de uno a tres días después de su matrimonio, y a partir de esta costumbre el hijo mayor de la sierva era tenido como hijo del Señor..... Marquette era reclamado tanto por el Señor Espiritual, como por el Señor Temporal. La Iglesia, de hecho, era el baluarte de esta vil reivindicación feudal.

• Mortality is a school of suffering and trials. We are here that we may be educated in a school of suffering and of fiery trials, which school was necessary for Jesus, our Elder Brother, who, the scriptures tell us, ‘was made perfect through suffering.’ It is necessary that we suffer in all things, that we may be qualified and worthy to rule, and govern all things, even as our Father in Heaven and His eldest son, Jesus.

• Como hijo mayor de una familia de aparceros de Alabama, me inquietaba constantemente un collage de comportamientos y nociones del sur de Norteamérica en referencia a la inhumanidad de las personas. Había preguntas que no sabía cómo formular, pero podía, a mi manera joven y poco sofisticada, articular una serie de respuestas.
