Famous quotes containing the words officers, killed, line and/or duty:

    “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)

    “Oh no, it wasn’t the aviators, it was beauty that killed the beast.”
    —James Creelman, screenwriter, Ruth Rose, screenwriter, Merian Cooper, and Ernest Schoedsack. Carl Denham (Robert Armstrong)

    “Our first line of defense in raising children with values is modeling good behavior ourselves. This is critical. How will our kids learn tolerance for others if our hearts are filled with hate? Learn compassion if we are indifferent? Perceive academics as important if soccer practice is a higher priority than homework?”
    —Fred G. Gosman (20th century)

    “I should not urge thy duty past thy might.
    I know young bloods look for a time of rest.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
