1st Earl of Richmond

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or richmond:

    I would rather have a young fellow too much than too little dressed: the excess on that side will wear off, with a little age and reflection; but if he is negligent at twenty, he will be a sloven at forty, and stink at fifty years old.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    Highbury bore me. Richmond and Kew
    Undid me. By Richmond I raised my knees
    Supine on the floor of a narrow canoe.”

    “My feet are at Moorgate, and my heart
    Under my feet.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
