Famous quotes containing the word breeding:

—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“A man’s own good breeding is his best security against other people’s ill-manners.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“We have been God-like in our planned breeding of our domesticated plants and animals, but we have been rabbit-like in our unplanned breeding of ourselves.”
