Corrupt Officer

Famous quotes containing the words corrupt and/or officer:

    ‘The old order changeth, yielding place to new
    And God fulfils Himself in many ways,
    Lest one good custom should corrupt the world.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    There was something so free and self-contained about him, something in the young fellow’s movements, that made that officer aware of him. And this irritated the Prussian. He did not choose to be touched into life by his servant.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
