8th Earl of Jersey

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or jersey:

    “It seems to me that your doctor [Tronchin] is more of a philosopher than a physician. As for me, I much prefer a doctor who is an optimist and who gives me remedies that will improve my health. Philosophical consolations are, after all, useless against real ailments. I know only two kinds of sickness—physical and moral: all the others are purely in the imagination.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “Ladies and gentlemen, I have a grave announcement to make. Incredible as it may seem, strange beings who landed in New Jersey tonight are the vanguard of an invading army from Mars.”
    —Orson Welles (1915–1984)
