Famous quotes containing the word service:

    “Old books that have ceased to be of service should no more be abandoned than should old friends who have ceased to give pleasure.”
    —Peregrine, Sir Worsthorne (b. 1923)

    “The man of large and conspicuous public service in civil life must be content without the Presidency. Still more, the availability of a popular man in a doubtful State will secure him the prize in a close contest against the first statesman of the country whose State is safe.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “O good old man, how well in thee appears
    The constant service of the antique world,
    When service sweat for duty, not for meed!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
