Famous quotes containing the word duty:
“Felix Randal the farrier, O he is dead then? My duty all is ended,
Who have watched his mould of man, big-boned and hardy-handsome,
Pining, pining, till time when reason rambled in it and some
Fatal four disorders, fleshed there, all contended?”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
“Never anything can be amiss
When simpleness and duty tender it.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
