Famous quotes containing the word resources:

    “I always put these pert jackanapeses out of countenance by looking extremely grave when they expect that I should laugh at their pleasantries; and by saying Well, and so?—as if they had not done, and that the sting were still to come. This disconcerts them, as they have no resources in themselves, and have but one set of jokes to live upon.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
