Famous quotes containing the word viscount:

    “You should never assume contempt for that which it is not very manifest that you have it in your power to possess, nor does a wit ever make a more contemptible figure than when, in attempting satire, he shows that he does not understand that which he would make the subject of his ridicule.”
    —William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)
