Famous quotes containing the words full and/or service:
“Now I am just an elderly lady who is full of spleen,

who never lived and yet outlived her time,
hating men and dogs and Democrats.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“His character as one of the fathers of the English language would alone make his works important, even those which have little poetical merit. He was as simple as Wordsworth in preferring his homely but vigorous Saxon tongue, when it was neglected by the court, and had not yet attained to the dignity of a literature, and rendered a similar service to his country to that which Dante rendered to Italy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
