Lord Chesterfield Quotes

«Know the true value of time; snatch, seize, and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness, no laziness, no procrastination: never put off till to-morrow what you can do to-day.»
«Aim at perfection in everything, though in most things it is unattainable. However, they who aim at it, and persevere, will come much nearer to it than those whose laziness and despondency make them give it up as unattainable.»
«Wear your learning like your watch, in a private pocket; and do not pull it out and strike it merely to show that you have one»
«You must embrace the man you hate, if you cannot be justified in knocking him down»
«No idleness, no laziness, no procrastination; never put off till tomorrow what you can do today»
«When a man wants your advice he generally wants your praise»
«Distrust all those who love you extremely upon a very slight acquaintance and without any visible reason.»
«When a person is in fashion, all they do is right.»
«Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.»
«Let your enemies be disarmed by the gentleness of your manner, but at the same time let them feel, the steadiness of your resentment.»
