1st Earl of Mansfield

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or mansfield:

    Religion is by no means a proper subject of conversation in mixed company; it should only be treated among a very few people of learning, for mutual instruction. It is too awful and respectable a subject to become a familiar one.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    To work—to work! It is such infinite delight to know that we still have the best things to do.
    —Katherine Mansfield (1888–1923)
