Famous quotes containing the words bernard and/or revel:

    Don’t be so ready to defy everybody. Act as if you expected to have your own way, not as if you expected to be ordered about. The way to get on as a lady is the same as the way to get on as a servant: you’ve got to know your place.
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    I enjoy my rights, but I revel in my privileges.
