Famous quotes containing the word service:

    “Books can only reveal us to ourselves, and as often as they do us this service we lay them aside.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Civilization is a process in the service of Eros, whose purpose is to combine single human individuals, and after that families, then races, peoples and nations, into one great unity, the unity of mankind. Why this has to happen, we do not know; the work of Eros is precisely this.”
    —Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
