Created Earl

Famous quotes containing the words created and/or earl:

    It’s likely that adults from the caveman on have created their own fantasies of what children ought to be like and naturally have been convinced that’s precisely how as children they themselves were.
    Leontine Young (20th century)

    It is a great advantage for any man to be able to talk or hear, neither ignorantly nor absurdly, upon any subject; for I have known people, who have not said one word, hear ignorantly and absurdly; it has appeared by their inattentive and unmeaning faces.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
