LORD CHESTERFIELD
No man ever did a designed injury to another, but at the same time he did a greater to himself.
LORD KAMES
Character must be kept bright as well as clean.
LORD CHESTERFIELD
You must look into people, as well as at them.
LORD CHESTERFIELD
Be your character what it will, it will be known; and nobody will take it upon your word.
LORD CHESTERFIELD
