1st Earl of Mansfield

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or mansfield:

    Women are only children of a larger growth.... A man of sense only trifles with them, plays with them, humours and flatters them, as he does with a sprightly and forward child; but he neither consults them about, nor trusts them with, serious matters.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    I’m a writer first & a woman after.
    —Katherine Mansfield (1888–1923)
