Earl Winfield Spencer

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or spencer:

    Every thing in his composition was little; and he had all the weaknesses of a little mind, without any of the virtues, or even the vices, of a great one.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    Whether in the bringing of the flowers or the food
    She offers plenty, and is part of plenty,
    And whether I see her stooping, or leaning with the flowers,
    What she does is ages old, and she is not simply,
    No, but lovely in that way.
    —Bernard Spencer (1909–1963)
