Famous quotes containing the words early and/or service:
“...he came towards them early in the morning, walking on the sea.”

“The service a man renders his friend is trivial and selfish, compared with the service he knows his friend stood in readiness to yield him, alike before he had begun to serve his friend, and now also.
