Famous quotes containing the word duty:

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The way to transmute your iron duty into gold in everyone’s eyes is this: always deliver more than you promise.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“I should not urge thy duty past thy might.
I know young bloods look for a time of rest.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
