Files Office

Famous quotes containing the words files and/or office:

“But some who this blithe mood present,
As on in lightsome files they fare,
Shall die experienced ere three days be spent—
Perish, enlightened by the vollied glare;
Or shame survive, and, like to adamant,
Thy after shock, Manassas, share.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)

“Difference of opinion is advantageous in religion. The several sects perform the office of a Censor ... over each other.”
