American speaking, have no care for the British monarchy in both current and historical context, as such have no care for Mr. Philip's titles or blood.

However, I've always admired him for speaking his mind with absolutely no filter, sensitivity, or care for consequences- a certain special kind of courage present in those with prominent positions, titles or fame. After reading through his life and several more of his quotes, this sentiment and my respect and honor for him as a person has only increased. While many of his comments and opinions I quite disagreed with, the manner in which he delivered them was simple, humorous, and clever, and in our modern age of oversensitivity and "cancel culture", a voice like his is greatly appreciated.

"I'd much rather have stayed in the Navy, frankly."
-When asked what he felt about his life in 1992.


God bless and Godspeed, Mr. Philip, and here's to hoping we can find another whose tongue is as sharp as yours. Jeremy Clarkson will do for now.

Former President of Botswana Ian Khama has expressed his expressed his views in the following words:

"When people talk about the royals, I don’t think they quite understand what it takes, what it means to be able to carry out that role and the duties that come with it. For me that’s what I admire so much about him and the Queen. [...] He was one of a kind, he had a mind of his own and he spoke it. I admired him and the Queen and the way they carried out their duty."

Well said, Mr President. Many people don't seem to realise that it's really no fun being an active member of the British royal family, having most of your life dictated to you. Prince Philip carried out his duties, supported the Queen through all these years, and deserves respect. For that as well as for his war-time service in the armed forces.

My thoughts are with his grieving family, particularly his widow and children.
