Famous quotes containing the words charlotte and/or elizabeth:

    Last night, party at Lansdowne-House. Tonight, party at Lady Charlotte Greville’s—deplorable waste of time, and something of temper. Nothing imparted—nothing acquired—talking without ideas—if any thing like thought in my mind, it was not on the subjects on which we were gabbling. Heigho!—and in this way half London pass what is called life.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    A sumptuous dwelling the rich man hath.
    And dainty is his repast;
    But remember that luxury’s prodigal hand
    Keeps the furnace of toil in blast.
    —Mary Elizabeth Hewitt (b.1818)
