John Davidson: Marquis de la Chetardie

Quotes 

• Grand Duke Peter : I suppose you, too, want to congratulate as the father of the heir to the throne of Russia.

  Marquis de la Chetardie : That was my intention, Your Imperial Highness. And I bring you the felicitations of my nation, and my own personal congratulations on so glorious an event.

  Grand Duke Peter : Yes, I know. Tell me about it some other time. I want to be alone, do you hear? Get out, all of you! I'm crammed up to my neck with congratulations! Get out! And if you must congratulate someone, congratulate my wife!
