Lord Chesterfield

If you can once engage people's pride, love, pity, ambition on your side, you need not fear what their reason can do against you.

Fear

Lord Chesterfield

Never seem wiser, nor more learned, than the people you are with. Wear your learning, like your watch, in a private pocket: and do not merely pull it out and strike it merely to show that you have one.

Learning

Lord Chesterfield

Knowledge of the world in only to be acquired in the world, and not in a closet.

Knowledge

Lord Chesterfield

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.

Time
