Famous quotes containing the words created and/or earl:

“If the devil doesn’t exist and, therefore, man has created him, he has created him in his own image and likeness.”
—Feodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881)

“I am not of the opinion generally entertained in this country [England], that man lives by Greek and Latin alone; that is, by knowing a great many words of two dead languages, which nobody living knows perfectly, and which are of no use in the common intercourse of life. Useful knowledge, in my opinion, consists of modern languages, history, and geography; some Latin may be thrown into the bargain, in compliance with custom, and for closet amusement.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
