Seventh Earl

Famous quotes containing the words seventh and/or earl:

“Then, anger
was a crease in the brow
and silence
a catastrophe.
Then, making up
was a mutual smile
and a glance
a gift.
Now, just look at this mess
that you’ve made of that love.
You grovel at my feet
and I berate you
and can’t let my anger go.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

“Absolute power can only be supported by error, ignorance and prejudice.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
