Dismiss Office

Famous quotes containing the words dismiss and/or office:

“Beluthahatchee is a country where all unpleasant doings and sayings are forgotten, a land of forgiveness and forgetfulness. When a woman accusingly reminds her man of something in the past, he replies, ‘I thought that was in Beluthahatchee.’ Or a person may say to another, to dismiss some matter, “Oh, that’s in Beluthahatchee.’”
—For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

“Reason is, and ought only to be the slave of the passions, and can never pretend to any other office than to serve and obey them.”
