Not to be confused with Robert Gascoyne-Cecil, the 7th Marquess of Salisbury.''

Robert Gascoyne-Cecil, 3rd Marquess of Salisbury was a UK Prime Minister.

“No lesson seems to be so deeply inculcated by the experience of life as that you never should trust experts. If you believe the doctors, nothing is wholesome: if you believe the theologians, nothing is innocent: if you believe the soldiers, nothing is safe. They all require to have their strong wine diluted by a very large admixture of insipid common sense.”
Robert Arthur Talbot Gascoyne-Cecil [1]
