I'm gonna quote an excerpt from "Guards! Guards!" by Terry Pratchett:
"I've always thought," said the monarchist, pulling out a pipe and beginning to fill it with the ponderous air of one who is going to deliver a lecture, "that one of the major problems of being a king is the risk of your daughter getting a prick."
There was a thoughtful pause.
"And falling asleep for a hundred years," the monarchist went on stolidly.
"Ah," said the others, unaccountably relieved.
