Famous quotes containing the words service and/or information:
“The gods’ service is tolerable, man’s intolerable.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
“We hear a great deal of lamentation these days about writers having all taken themselves to the colleges and universities where they live decorously instead of going out and getting firsthand information about life. The fact is that anybody who has survived his childhood has enough information about life to last him the rest of his days.”
—Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
