Famous quotes containing the words dates and/or service:
“Nothing so dates a man as to decry the younger generation.”
—Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)
“You had to face your ends when young
‘Twas wine or women, or some curse
But never made a poorer song
That you might have a heavier purse,
Nor gave loud service to a cause
That you might have a troop of friends.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
