The best servants of the people, like the best valets, must whisper unpleasant truths in the master's ear. It is the court fool, not the foolish courtier, whom the king can least afford to lose.
Walter Lippmann
Image
Every great house is full of haughty servants.
Juvenal
Image
The servants must wait like ninjas for me to leave so they could render this place spotless again.
Jeaniene Frost
Image
When passions and appetites are stronger than the intellect, men are savages when the intellect governs the passions, when the passions are servants, men are civilized. The people need education - facts - philosophy.
Robert Green Ingersoll
Image
I put away my brushes resolutely crucified my divine gift, and while it hung writhing on the cross, spent my best years and powers cooking cabbage. A servant of servants shall she be, must have been spoken of women, not Negroes.
Jane Swisshelm
Image
This cause will roll on in majesty and power to fill the earth. Doors now closed to the preaching of the gospel will be opened. The Almighty, if necessary, may have to shake the nations to humble them and cause them to listen to the servants of the living God. Whatever is needed will come to pass.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Image
It is an old custom of the servants of God to have some little prayer ready and to be frequently darting them up to heaven during the day, lifting their minds to God out of the mire of this world.
Philip Neri
Image
I think we should all be servants. To be really great in God's eyes is to be least among each other and serve each other.
Larry Norman
Image
Passions, as fire and water, are good servants, but bad masters, and subminister to the best and worst purposes.
Roger L'Estrange
Image
There is simply no comparison between a man who is armed and one who is not. It is simply unreasonable to expect that an armed man should obey one who is unarmed, or that an unarmed man should remain safe and secure when his servants are armed.
Niccolo Machiavelli
Image
Where I found the living, there I found the will to power even in the will of servants I found the will to be master.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
People that trust themselves a dozen miles from the city, in strange houses, with servants they don't know, needn't be surprised if they wake up some morning and find their throats cut.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Image
If Christ came back he would drive his treacherous servants out of the temple with a whip.
Joseph Goebbels
Image
In a word, we are like the servants of the centurion in the Gospel with regard to the bishops, insofar as when they say to us: go, we are obliged to go if they say: come, we are obliged to come do that, and we are obliged to do it.
Vincent de Paul
Image
The best marriage in the world is two servants in love. The worst marriage in the world is two masters in love.
Jimmy Evans
Image
It is the people, and not the judges, who are entitled to say what their constitution means, for the constitution is theirs, it belongs to them and not to their servants in office—any other theory is incompatible with the foundation principles of our government.
Theodore Roosevelt
Image
Habit is either the best of servants or the worst of masters.
Nathanael Emmons
Image
Musalia [Mudavadi] has a much weaker character in person than [Musikari] Kombo, and you know the joke about humble Luhya servants as cooks and watchmen...Anyway, jokes aside, Luhya disunity is a blessing for us and I would never have wanted it any other way.
Raila Odinga
Image
I have discovered that a famed familiarity in great ones is a note of certain usurpation on the less for great and popular men feign themselves to be servants to others to make those slaves to them.
Ben Jonson
Image
The prosecution of [Warren] Hastings, though he should escape at last, must have good effect. It will alarm the servants of the Company in India, that they may not always plunder with impunity, but that there may be a retrospect and it will show them that even bribes of diamonds to the Crown may not secure them from prosecution.
Horace Walpole
Image
It is God's design to use reluctant servants to usher in glory.
Dan B. Allender
Image
No matter what one says, you can recognize only those matters that are equal to you. Only rulers who possess extraordinary abilities will recognize and esteem properly extraordinary abilities in their subjects and servants.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Image
Ye servants of the Lord, Each in his office wait, Observant of the heavenly word, And watchful at his gate.
Philip Doddridge
Image
God is not looking for more stars He's looking for more servants.
