All LORD CHESTERFIELD Quotes about “Purpose”

“Firmness of purpose is one of the best instruments of success.”
“Whatever you do, do it to the purpose; do it thoroughly, not superficially. Go to the bottom of things. Any thing half done, or half known, is in my mind, neither done nor known at all. Nay, worse, for it often misleads.”
“Ugliness is a letter of credit for some special purposes.”
