Created Earl

Famous quotes containing the words created and/or earl:

“Why was the human race created? Or at least why wasn’t something creditable created in place of it? God had His opportunity. He could have made a reputation. But no, He must commit this grotesque folly—a lark which must have cost Him a regret or two when He came to think it over and observe effects.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

“A constant smirk upon the face, and a whiffling activity of the body, are strong indications of futility.”
