Famous quotes containing the words high and/or command:

    Man is more disposed to domination than freedom; and a structure of dominion not only gladdens the eye of the master who rears and protects it, but even its servants are uplifted by the thought that they are members of a whole, which rises high above the life and strength of single generations.
    Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)

    ‘Tis not in mortals to command success,
    But we’ll do more, Sempronius, we’ll deserve it.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
