Famous quotes containing the word earl:

    The herd of mankind can hardly be said to think; their notions are almost all adoptive; and, in general, I believe it is better that it should be so; as such common prejudices contribute more to order and quiet, than their own separate reasonings would do, uncultivated and unimproved as they are.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
