Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or served:
“The word which gives the key to the national vice is waste. And people who are wasteful are not wise, neither can they remain young and vigorous. In order to transmute energy to higher and more subtle levels one must first conserve it.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
“All of you young people who served in the war. You are a lost generation.... You have no respect for anything. You drink yourselves to death.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
