Distinguished Public Service

Famous quotes containing the words public and/or service:

    Kirsten: So you’re the new public relations man.
    Joe: Yeah.
    Kirsten: What happened to Eddie?
    Joe: Eddie quit.
    Kirsten: I liked him. Why’d he quit?
    Joe: Well, a little matter of personal integrity. Eddie didn’t feel that getting dates for potentates was part of public relations.
    Kirsten: But isn’t it?
    Joe: Well, there’s a name for it but it’s not “public relations.”
    —J.P. (James Pinckney)

    The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom.
    Sun Tzu (6th–5th century B.C.)
