High Commission

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or commission:

    How high they build hospitals!
    Lighted cliffs, against dawns
    Of days people will die on.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    It is impossible to calculate the moral mischief, if I may so express it, that mental lying has produced in society. When a man has so far corrupted and prostituted the chastity of his mind as to subscribe his professional belief to things he does not believe he has prepared himself for the commission of every other crime.
    Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
