Beat Officers

Famous quotes containing the words beat and/or officers:

“I told you, sir, they were red-hot with drinking;
So full of valour that they smote the air,
For breathing in their faces, beat the ground
For kissing of their feet.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“No officer should be required or permitted to take part in the management of political organizations, caucuses, conventions, or election campaigns. Their right to vote and to express their views on public questions, either orally or through the press, is not denied, provided it does not interfere with the discharge of their official duties. No assessment for political purposes on officers or subordinates should be allowed.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
