Famous quotes containing the word service:
“The true courage of civilized nations is readiness for sacrifice in the service of the state, so that the individual counts as only one amongst many. The important thing here is not personal mettle but aligning oneself with the universal.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

—Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)
“Books can only reveal us to ourselves, and as often as they do us this service we lay them aside.”
