Distinguished Service Crosses

Famous quotes containing the words service and/or crosses:

    “I can counterfeit the deep tragedian,
    Speak, and look back, and pry on every side,
    Tremble and start at wagging of a straw,
    Intending deep suspicion. Ghastly looks
    Are at my service like enforced smiles,
    And both are ready in their offices
    At any time to grace my stratagems.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Life is like walking along a crowded street—there always seem to be fewer obstacles to getting along on the opposite pavement—and yet, if one crosses over, matters are rarely mended.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
