Famous quotes containing the word earl:

    The world can doubtless never be well known by theory: practice is absolutely necessary; but surely it is of great use to a young man, before he sets out for that country, full of mazes, windings, and turnings, to have at least a general map of it, made by some experienced traveller.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
