Famous quotes containing the words rush, hour and/or service:
“In Pride, in reasning Pride, our error lies;
All quit their sphere, and rush into the skies.

Men would be Angels, Angels would be Gods.”

“Time is indeed the theatre and seat of illusion: nothing is so ductile and elastic. The mind stretches an hour to a century and dwarfs an age to an hour.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“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. Compared with that good-will I bear my friend, the benefit it is in my power to render him seems small.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
