Famous quotes containing the words lord, high and/or admiral:

    These are thy wonders, Lord of love,
    To make us see we are but flowers that glide.
    Which when we once can finde and prove,
    Thou hast a garden for us where to bide.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    The duties which a police officer owes to the state are of a most exacting nature. No one is compelled to choose the profession of a police officer, but having chosen it, everyone is obliged to live up to the standard of its requirements. To join in that high enterprise means the surrender of much individual freedom.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    Never forget that you are Germans. Never forget that you are Nazis!
    Edmund H. North, British screenwriter, and Lewis Gilbert. Admiral Lutjens (Karel Stepanek)
