Lord Chesterfield
Quotes:
An injury is much sooner forgotten than an insult.
If you are not in fashion, you are nobody.
Be wiser than other people, if you can, but do not tell them so.
Common sense is the best sense I know of.
Know the true value of time snatch, seize, and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness no laziness no procrastination never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
Never seem more learned than the people you are with. Wear your learning like a pocket watch and keep it hidden. Do not pull it out to count the hours, but give the time when you are asked.
The knowledge of the world is only to be acquired in the world, and not in a closet.
Wit is so shining a quality that everybody admires it most people aim at it, all people fear it, and few love it unless in themselves.
Choose your pleasures for yourself, and do not let them be imposed upon you.
