Noble Truth

Famous quotes containing the words noble and/or truth:

    Lady —— is safely delivered of a son, to the great joy of that noble family. The expression, of a woman’s having brought her husband a son, seems to be a proper and cautious one; for it is never said, from whence.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    However greatly we distrust the sincerity of those we converse with, yet still we think they tell more truth to us than to anyone else.
