Famous quotes containing the words prime, minister and/or secretary:
“Ay, look: high heaven and earth ail from the prime foundation;

Horror and scorn and hate and fear and indignation—
Oh, why did I awake? When shall I sleep again?”
—A.E. (Alfred Edward)

—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“... the wife of an executive would be a better wife had she been a secretary first. As a secretary, you learn to adjust to the boss’s moods. Many marriages would be happier if the wife would do that.”
