Famous quotes containing the word service:

    “Books can only reveal us to ourselves, and as often as they do us this service we lay them aside.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “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)

    “The masochist: “I send my tormentor hurrying hither and thither in the service of my suffering and desire.””
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
