Famous quotes containing the word service:

    “In the service of Caesar, everything is legitimate.”
    —Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

    “This was a great point gained; the archdeacon would certainly not come to morning service at Westminster Abbey, even though he were in London; and here the warden could rest quietly, and, when the time came, duly say his prayers.”
    —Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    “In public buildings set aside for the care and maintenance of the goods of the middle ages, a staff of civil service art attendants praise all the dead, irrelevant scribblings and scrawlings that, at best, have only historical interest for idiots and layabouts.”
    —George Grosz (1893–1959)
