1st Viscount Grey of Fallodon

Famous quotes containing the words viscount and/or grey:

    You should never assume contempt for that which it is not very manifest that you have it in your power to possess, nor does a wit ever make a more contemptible figure than when, in attempting satire, he shows that he does not understand that which he would make the subject of his ridicule.

    That reverend Vice, that grey Iniquity, that father Ruffian,
    that Vanity in years.
