Civil Service Affairs

Famous quotes containing the words civil, service and/or affairs:

    When civil fury first grew high,
    And men fell out, they knew not why;
    When hard words, jealousies, and fears,

    And made them fight, like mad or drunk,
    For Dame Religion, as for punk;
    Samuel Butler (1612–1680)

    In any service where a couple hold down jobs as a team, the male generally takes his ease while the wife labors at his job as well as her own.

    The more reasonable a student was in mathematics, the more unreasonable she was in the affairs of real life, concerning which few trustworthy postulates have yet been ascertained.
