Famous quotes containing the word services:

—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“O, the difference of man and man!
To thee a woman’s services are due.”

“True love ennobles and dignifies the material labors of life; and homely services rendered for love’s sake have in them a poetry that is immortal.”
