Quote by Lord Chesterfield
Never seem wiser, nor more learned, than the people you are with.

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. – Lord Chesterfield
