5th Earl Spencer

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or spencer:

    Never seem wiser, nor more learned, than the people you are with. Wear your learning, like your watch, in a private pocket: and do not merely pull it out and strike it; merely to show that you have one.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    Guilt pins a fig-leaf; Innocence is its own adorning.
    —Anne Spencer (1882–1975)
