Quote of the Day

This quote is from Queen Elizabeth I upon learning that she was now Queen of England.

"A Dominum factum est illud, et est mirabile in oculis notris"

or in plainer English

"It is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes."

    I can't remember which, but one book I read on Elizabeth arranged that she stole this quote from someone else. I wish I could remember... it's pure fiction though -- she didn't copy it from anyone.
