"I am an amateur in this and will stay one. I don’t show off, don’t teach anyone, I learn quietly from those that I deem worthy, and ignore those that are false and showy."

Temesvári Jenő    

“It is true that coats of arms are mere formality; it is also true that they are often the result of human frailty and empty vanity, leading to haughty idleness and often they are born from a ridiculous idea that equates the worth of a person with their rank and coat of arms; thinks that the one with the higher rank and older coat of arms is worth more, even though these circumstances do not add one iota to the worth of a person. An honest and hardworking craftsman, who does his duty, may represent much more human value, than a king that neglects his duty.”

QUOTED FROM THE BOOK OF HUNGARIAN COATS OF ARMS,
from the preface by Count GYULA ANDRÁSY
