Famous quotes containing the word duties:
“The duties which a police officer owes to the state are of a most exacting nature.

To join in that high enterprise means the surrender of much individual freedom.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“There must be a world revolution which puts an end to all materialistic conditions hindering woman from performing her natural role in life and driving her to carry out man’s duties in order to be equal in rights.”
—Muammar Qaddafi (b. 1938)
