Famous quotes containing the word earl:

    “This is the day when people reciprocally offer, and receive, the kindest and the warmest wishes, though, in general, without meaning them on one side, or believing them on the other. They are formed by the head, in compliance with custom, though disavowed by the heart, in consequence of nature.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
