Famous quotes containing the words train and/or services:

    “Misfortunes leave wounds which bleed drop by drop even in sleep; thus little by little they train man by force and dispose him to wisdom in spite of himself. Man must learn to think of himself as a limited and dependent being; and only suffering teaches him this.”
    —Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    “Those services which the community will most readily pay for, it is most disagreeable to render.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
