1st Baron Lloyd

Famous quotes containing the words baron and/or lloyd:

    The wrinkles in my brow,
    The furrows in my face,
    Say, limping age will lodge him now
    Where youth must give him place.
    Thomas Vaux, 2d Baron Vaux Of Harrowden (1510–1566)

    The Landlord is a gentleman ... who does not earn his wealth. He has a host of agents and clerks that receive for him. He does not even take the trouble to spend his wealth. He has a host of people around him to do the actual spending. He never sees it until he comes to enjoy it. His sole function, his chief pride, is the stately consumption of wealth produced by others.
    —David Lloyd George (1863–1945)
