Famous quotes containing the word command:

    But as some silly young men returning from France affect a broken English, to be thought perfect in the French language; so his Lordship, I think, to seem a perfect understander of the unintelligible language of the Schoolmen, pretends an ignorance of his mother-tongue. He talks here of command and counsel as if he were no Englishman, nor knew any difference between their significations.
    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    It is often necessary to know how to obey a woman in order sometimes to have the right to command her.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
