Unrelated historical anecdote this reminded me of: Mary, Queen of Scots' mother, Marie de Guise, was in a similar situation once where people wanted her to be Henry VIII's umpteenth wife, and she's supposed to have said something like, "But my neck is so little!"
ETA: I was trying to remember who said sth like, "If I had two heads, I would give one to the King of England," and googling says it was a princess Christina of Denmark.
