Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or weaver:

    “Keep your own secret, and get out other people’s. Keep your own temper, and artfully warm other people’s. Counterwork your rivals with diligence and dexterity, but at the same time with the utmost personal civility to them: and be firm without heat.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “Machinery is aggressive. The weaver becomes a web, the machinist a machine. If you do not use the tools, they use you. All tools are in one sense edge-tools, and dangerous.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
