Created Earl

Famous quotes containing the words created and/or earl:

    Whenever [Leonard Bernstein] entered or exited a country he would fill in on his passport form not composer or conductor, but musician. Of course people in the press spent a lot of Lenny’s life telling him what he should have done; he should have been a concert pianist, he should have composed more.... And people wouldn’t let him live his own life. But he created his own career, in his own image.
    John Mauceri (b. 1945)

    The talent of insinuation is more useful than that of persuasion, as everybody is open to insinuation, but scarce any to persuasion.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
