Famous quotes containing the word baron:

    People sometimes tell me that they prefer barbarism to civilisation. I doubt if they have given it a long enough trial. Like the people of Alexandria, they are bored by civilisation; but all the evidence suggests that the boredom of barbarism is infinitely greater.
    Kenneth MacKenzie Clark, Baron of Saltwood (1903–1983)
