Service Command

Famous quotes containing the words service and/or command:

    “O good old man, how well in thee appears
    The constant service of the antique world,
    When service sweat for duty, not for meed!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Under bare Ben Bulben’s head
    In Drumcliff churchyard Yeats is laid.
    An ancestor was rector there
    Long years ago, a church stands near,
    By the road an ancient cross.
    No marble, no conventional phrase;
    On limestone quarried near the spot
    By his command these words are cut:
    Cast a cold eye
    On life, on death.
    Horseman pass by!”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
