Famous quotes containing the words intelligence and/or officer:
“One definition of man is “an intelligence served by organs.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The duties which a police officer owes to the state are of a most exacting nature.

To join in that high enterprise means the surrender of much individual freedom.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
