Famous quotes containing the words estates and/or tea:

    “No man, however benevolent, liberal, and wise, can use a large fortune so that it will do half as much good in the world as it would if it were divided into moderate sums and in the hands of workmen who had earned it by industry and frugality. The piling up of estates often does great and conspicuous good.... But no man does with accumulated wealth so much good as the same amount would do in many hands.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “When the tea is brought at five o’clock,
    And all the neat curtains are drawn with care,
    The little black cat with bright green eyes
    Is suddenly purring there.”
    —Harold Monro (1879–1932)
