Famous quotes containing the word service:

    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)

    The gods’ service is tolerable, man’s intolerable.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
