Famous quotes containing the word lord:

    Men are apt to mistake, or at least to seem to mistake, their own talents, in hopes, perhaps, of misleading others to allow them that which they are conscious they do not possess. Thus lord Hardwicke valued himself more upon being a great minister of state, which he certainly was not, than upon being a great magistrate, which he certainly was.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
