Famous quotes containing the word service:

    “O good old man, how well in thee appears
    The constant service of the antique world,
    When service sweat for duty, not for meed!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Night City was like a deranged experiment in Social Darwinism, designed by a bored researcher who kept one thumb permanently on the fast-forward button. Stop hustling and you sank without a trace, but move a little too swiftly and you’d break the fragile surface tension of the black market; either way, you were gone ... though heart or lungs or kidneys might survive in the service of some stranger with New Yen for the clinic tanks.”
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)

    “I like the silent church before the service begins, better than any preaching. How far off, how cool, how chaste the persons look, begirt each one with a precinct or sanctuary!”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
