Famous quotes containing the word duty:

    If one mistreats citizens of foreign countries, one infringes upon one’s duty toward one’s own subjects; for thus one exposes them to the law of retribution.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    His duty he always faithfully did; but duty is sometimes a dry obligation, and he was for irrigating its aridity, whensoever possible, with a fertilizing decoction of strong waters.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    ‘Tis a sort of duty to be rich, that it may be in one’s power to do good, riches being another word for power.
    Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (1689–1762)
